Profiling

Profiling (侧写) was Chen Motong's ability. It allowed her to piece past events together by analysing her surroundings. It did not count as a Yanling skill and its nature is still undefined.

### Principles

Profilers make use of unaltered traces left on objects and places, as well as physical re-enactments. The observers can immerse themselves in visions that allow them to experience the past, sometimes even letting them witness other people's memories.

It is important for them to keep part of their conscience on their present situation to avoid losing themselves in their visions. Experiencing other people's actions can lead a profiler to mimic them for short periods of time and in some cases, they can fall unconscious and put their own lives at risk.

This ability works not only in humans, but in dragons as well. In 2009, Chen Motong managed to witness the daily lives of two dragon kings (Norton and Constantine) in their home and learn about their nature as dragon twins.

In 2010, she helped Chu Zihang and Lu Mingfei in an Execution Bureau assignment by making Zihang re-enact the last moments of an agent's life. This led the pair to a trace that allowed the college to locate and recover stolen documents.

In 2012 Anjou advised Lu Mingfei to get Nono's help to locate a missing Chu Zihang. Nono visited Chu Tianjiao's apartment and was able to see the moment he arrived at Beijing, her skill became useful again when Crow gave them access to Herzog's research papers.

Sakatoku Aki

* Manhua
* Donghua

Sakatoku Aki (酒德亚纪) was an agent of the Execution Bureau and the sister of Sakatoku Mai.

## Biography

Born in Japan, she studied in Cassell College and worked in the Execution Bureau after graduating. She met and fell in love with her colleague Ye Sheng, but kept her love as a secret, since the bureau wouldn't allow emotionally compromised agents to work together. The two were perceived by everyone as a natural pair and were very cooperative with each other. Aki committed herself to be the most supportive person in Ye Sheng's life.

She seemed to have a poor relationship with her sister Mai, who saw Aki as "an ugly duckling who unnecessarily humbled herself down".

In 2009, she and Ye Sheng accompanied Guderian and Nono to interview Lu Mingfei in China. After that, they left on a secret mission to explore the submerged ancient City of Bronze, where they managed to retrieve the copper vase that contained Constantine, and the case that guarded the Seven Deadly Sins.

The pair awakened the city's defenses, and Aki witnessed an apparition that took Ye Sheng's shape to earn her trust and attack her. When a dragon servitor started chasing them, Ye Sheng stayed behind to give Aki more time and oxygen to reach the surface. Before she left, they kissed and declared their love for one another.

After Aki managed to deliver the vase to the college's agents, the dragon servitor devoured her before she could board the ship.

## Biography

Xiaoqian was a popular girl at her school, she competed with Chen Wenwen and Liu Miaomiao for the attention of a classmate named Zhao Menghua.

She was one of the candidates called to be evaluated as a potential student for Cassell College, but the whole test was a facade, since Lu Mingfei was already selected as the school's new recruit.

He was introduced in the story when he and Aki accompanied Guderian and Nono to interview Lu Mingfei in China. After that, they left on a secret mission to explore the submerged ancient City of Bronze, where they managed to retrieve the copper vase that contained Norton and the case that guarded the Seven Deadly Sins.

When they awakened the city's defenses, an apparition with Ye Sheng's shape attempted to earn Aki's trust and attack her, but Ye Sheng came back to rescue her in the last second. The pair got lost on the city until they received a map from the school (provided by Mingfei through Lu Mingze). The map led them to the copper vase that contained Constantine, and he suggested they take it back to the boat. When a dragon servitor started chasing them, Ye Sheng stayed behind to give Aki more time to reach the surface. Before she left, they kissed and declared their love for each other.

In his time underwater, he located the case that guarded Norton's Seven Deadly Sins, which he tied to his torso before running out of oxygen and dying.

After the pair died on the mission, Cassell College released doves to signal a mourning period for the fallen agents. He was found by Mingfei and Nono during the Dragon-slayer operation a few months later and they recovered his body.

Manipulated by Herzog, the organization eventually rebelled against the Secret Party. The resurrection of the White King led to the death of seven of its eight patriarchs, leaving the Orochi in ruins. Nanami Sakurai is currently the last remaining clan chief.

After Herzog's defeat, the remains of the Orochi formed a new alliance with the Secret Party and started working to restore the organization.

## Dragon Raja

### Enemies

Secret party

The **Dragon Raja** (龙族, *Lóngzú*, lit. "Dragon Race") is a group of species of intelligent reptilian beings with god-like abilities. They ruled the world in ancient times and after two-thousand years of slumber, they are reawakening.

The term "Dragon Raja" also applies to the civilizations governed by the dragons.

## History

Nidhogg was born as a product of the earth's "life energy" millions of years before the first humans evolved. It is said that his existence is an inevitable event. Nidhogg created the rest of the dragons, starting with Izanami and then with the four elemental kings. They took early humans as their subjects and taught them how to speak and make tools.

Dragons have a natural desire to obtain power, collect precious metals and are ruthless in nature. Their competitive tendencies motivated Nidhogg to limit the power of the Elemental kings by dividing them in two. His first creation, Izanami rebelled against him and turned one third of the Dragon Raja against the Black Emperor. She ultimately lost and was consumed by Nidhogg to regain the power that he gave her.

First generation dragons were extremely powerful, Fenrir alone was responsible for the Wanggongchang Explosion in 1626. They were capable of changing the weather, starting earthquakes, altering the consciousness of millions, wiping out entire cities, creating reflections of the world called Nibelungens, moving through time, altering reality and bringing corpses back to life.

Dragons were tyrannical and cruel, motivating humanity to rebel against them. In their last days, Norton moved from Europe to China and created Baidicheng with pure bronze, as well as a set of swords that he planned to use against the other dragons. He and Constantine were defeated by dragon-slaying clans and his city collapsed.

Once the dragons were finally defeated, they went to sleep for nearly two thousand years. During that time, the Secret party (unknowingly under Odin's manipulations) searched for the dragons and their followers, slaying Death Servitors and other subspecies alike. They also held possession of Nidhogg's egg. In the year 1900, a group of Death Servitors attacked the Lionheart Society while they dissected the body of the Dragon King Li Wuyue. The dragon awakened and nearly wiped out the entirety of Lionheart, but he was defeated by Manecke Cassell's sacrifice. Only Hilbert Ron Anjou survived the attack.

In the following decades, Anjou and the rest of the Secret Party founded Cassell College, an organization dedicated to train dragon slayers. At the start of the 2020s, in a span of two years, they managed to locate and defeat Constantine, Norton, Fenrir, Jörmungandr and Izanami, mostly thanks to the actions of Lu Mingfei and Lu Mingze's faction.
Mance Rundstedt

* Donghua
* Manhua

Mance Rundstedt was an agent of Cassell College's execution Bureau and the former tutor of Chen Motong.

## Biography

In 2009, Mance led an operation at the Three Gorges Dam, where he directed Ye Sheng and Sakatoku Aki while they explored the ancient City of Bronze. Mance accurately assumed that the ancient place was made by the Dragon King of Bronze and Fire, King Norton.

After the mission was interrupted by the city's defenses, a dragon servant rose to the surface, the diving team was killed before they could reach the ship and the rest of the crew soon after.

Mance navigated the Moniah and with Key's help, he closed the gates of the dam on the dragon's body. While he managed to kill the creature, he was poisoned by one the dragon's fangs, but he managed to secure the copper vase that contained Constantine, and protected Key's life.

Hilbert Ron Anjou, principal of Cassell College arrived at the wreckage to recover the vase, he informed Mance that he didn't actually kill Norton, but one of his dragon servitors instead. Mance asked that the rest of the students didn't learn of what happened, and tell them that he went on a new mission (Which was his secret way of informing Chen Motong that he died). He also requested that Gerd Rudolf Manstein became Chen Motong's new tutor.

To commemorate him and his students, the school released Soul Doves and lit candles in their honor.
Elemental Dragon Kings

The Elemental Dragon Kings were a group of pure-blooded Dragons created by Nidhogg after he defeated Izanami.

Dragon Kings are not individuals, but sets of twins, a decision made by Nidhogg to limit their power. This dynamic is known as Twins in the throne. Twins will love each other immensely, since the only way to obtain the full power of the king requires a twin to devour the other, they will refrain from doing so unless they see their own lives threatened.

Each king has control over an element, they are powerful enough to affect the entire world, create explosions stronger than a nuclear bomb, boil entire rivers and start powerful earthquakes.

Known kings
 Odin |  | Lord of Sky and Wind

#### Unidentified

* Li Wuyue
* Leviathan

## History

After defeating Izanami (the Dragon Queen of the Spirit element), Nidhogg decided to create dragons for the remaining four elements. To keep them from becoming a threat, he split each king into a set of twins. The four dragons guided the path of human civilization and taught them about technology.

At some point in time, the dragons joined forces with humanity and betrayed Nidhogg, killing him at the top of a mountain. For millennia, the four kings affected the course of humanity, and left their own history written in their myths. 2000 years ago, Norton and Constantine left Norway and reached China, where they took control of the Han Dynasty, but they were defeated 12 years later by dragon slayers. Most of the kings were overthrown around the same time, forcing them to hibernate as embryos.

#### Resurrections and deaths

In 1900, the Secret party took possession of Nidhogg's egg and Li Wuyue's body. Wuyue awakened and killed most of the Lionheart Society with the help of Death Servitors, but he was slayed by Manecke Cassell.

Around 2020, Cassell College started hunting down the remaining dragon kings, starting with Norton and Constantine, followed by Jörmungandr and Fenrir a year later.
Dragon Subspecies

Dragon subspecies are creatures infected and mutated by a pure dragon's blood.

Since ancient times, Dragons have modified creatures, either intentionally or by accident. The resulting beings have been used since then as weapons and servants, or merely as food, such as the aquatic ecosystem that resulted from an embryo's blood at the bottom of the Japanese Trench.

Notable examples include:

* the Ghost-toothed Dragon Vipers.
* Odin's eight-legged horse Sleipnir.
* The airborne Kamaitachi.
* The mutated animals from Black Swan Bay.
Andrew Gattuso

Andrew Gattuso is the chief legal counsel of the Gattuso Family

Andrew graduated from Yale, a fact that made him extremely proud. Although he isn't skilled in the use of Yanling, he became the chief legal counsel of his family through his own merits.

In 2010, he travelled to Cassell College in representation of its school board on a mission to impeach principal Anjou. Andrew considered that Cassell had long deviated from its military school roots and intended to set it back on track. Soon after his arrival, he was intercepted by Leonardo Flammel, who forcibly inebriated him.

Under his instructions, Parsi managed to infiltrate the college but failed to gather any useful evidence. His case against Anjou failed in court during Chu Zihang's blood trial, due to his lack of compelling proof. The trial was interrupted by the news of Fenrir's resurrection.
Yabuki Sakura

* Novel
* Manhua
* Game

Yabuki Sakura was a trained Hybrid ninja assassin that worked for the Yamata no Orochi as Gen Chisei's assistant and guardian.

## Traits

Sakura went through extreme poverty during her youth, which led to a thin and short body. Despite this, her training as a ninja made her very strong and agile. She had pitch black hair and blue eyes. In the manhua adaptation, her hair is blonde instead.

## Biography

### Background

Sakura was of Japanese descent, but she grew up in Afghanistan. At the age of nine, she started fighting in local guerrillas, in which she killed multiple people in the streets.

She was proficient in combat, managing to use simple glass shards and iron pieces as deadly weapons. Her talents caught the eyes of the Fuma family, one of the eight clans of the Yamata no Orochi. She was easily recruited, since she was starving on the street, however, she found it hard to adapt to the Japanese lifestyle and ended up working as a weapon keeper in a shrine.

### Joining the Orochi

She formed a reputation as someone who would do any kind of favor in exchange for food. At some point, and agent named Crow developed a crush on her, but he was afraid of being mocked by his peers, so he mentioned her tendency to do anything in exchange for food. The indecent implications of his comment annoyed Gen Chisei, the leader of the Gen clan, who instead offered the girl a job as his assistant. Sakura soon became his bodyguard as well and developed romantic feelings for him.

In the following years, Sakura became a master of disguise, and a great actress. She enjoyed Japanese television dramas and got accustomed to a more civilized lifestyle.
School Board

Cassell College's School Board is a group of seven influential members of the Secret Party.

## Main Responsibilities

Its members reunite for a meeting once every year, with the exception of emergency situations. They can vote on all issues and matters of the college, including:

* Deciding the punishment of students who violate disciplines.
* Choosing a principal for the college.

## Members of the Board

#### Frost Gattuso

Representative of the Gattuso family, taking Pompeii's place. He is critical of Anjou; he attempted to remove him from his position in 2010. After his death in 2012, his place was taken by his nephew Caesar.

#### Caesar Gattuso

As the representative of his family following Frost Gattuso's death, his first action was to remove his father Pompeii from a meeting to take his place. His defense of his education and action plans impressed the rest of the board, including Beowulf.

#### Leonardo Flammel

Vice principal of Cassell College. Flammel descends from the best alchemist family in the Secret Party. He rarely attends meetings.

#### Beowulf

The former leader of the Action Team, an organization that preceded the current Execution Bureau. Beowulf was expected to lead the Bureau, but he opposed the creation of Cassell. He took a seat on the Board after the assassination attempt on Anjou.

#### Countess Elizabeth Laurent

Descendant to one of the largest mining and commercial syndicates in Europe. After her father died in an airplane crash she had to stop working on her studies at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts and inherit the family business. She is a close friend of Anjou and one of his biggest supporters.

#### Lisa Laurent

The youngest member at approximately 16 years old, yet is already a college graduate. Has a not-so-secret crush on Caesar Gattuso. Supports Anjou.

#### Others

Other members include Mr. Turing and Mr. Vanderbilt.
Seven Deadly Sins

The Seven Deadly Sins was a set of seven alchemic swords created by Norton, the Dragon King of Bronze and Fire. The set is stored in a rectangle-shaped case, when it's unlocked, the handles of the swords come out, allowing their owner to take them out with ease.

The blades are extremely powerful, being some of the only weapons that can successfully harm and even kill pure-blooded dragons. If the lineage of a hybrid isn't pure enough, the blades would gravely damage them if they attempted to wield them. Each blade is associated with a capital sin and they are compatible with wielders that share those flaws. They're similarly stronger against an enemy that shares the represented flaw.

## History

Norton created the blades after he predicted the fall of the Dragon Raja. He thought that his fellow dragons were consumed by the seven deadly sins, and he created a weapon for each of these vices.

The case was lost in ancient times when the City of Bronze sank during Norton's fall. The case was located by Ye Sheng and Sakatoku Aki with the help of a map provided by Lu Mingze. Ye Sheng didn't survive the mission and the case was later found tied to his body by Lu Mingfei and Chen Motong. Under Lu Mingze's instructions, Mingfei used the blades to assassinate Norton.

The blades ended up in an auction, where they were recovered by Mingfei and Hilbert Ron Anjou, once again with Mingze's help. When Fenrir was located in Beijing, Anjou gave a sword to Lu Mingfei and another to Finger Von Frings. The blades recognized that Chu Zihang's blood purity was artificially achieved and rejected him. After fusing with Mingze, Mingfei managed to make use of multiple swords to defeat Fenrir.

Anjou later took the blades to Japan to kill Izanami, but they were considered useless, since the White Dragon Empress was already dead when they were forged and was above their offensive capabilities.
World without Chu Zihang

The "World without Chu Zihang" was the result of Odin's attempt to modify reality and eliminate Chu Zihang's role in it by tampering with humanity's memories and changing the physical state of the world.

It is the setting of Dragon King and Dragon King 2

## Leading events

* Odin and Chu Zihang met on a Nibelungen in Beijing when the latter was 15 years old. Odin killed Zihang's father.
* Six years after their first encounter, Chu Zihang became the new Dragon King of Earth and Mountain and he faced Odin once more, interrupting him from killing Nidhogg.
* Nidhogg awakened and started an apocalyptic event.
* Odin modified reality and people's memories of the previous 7 years to stop the apocalypse.
* Odin put his mask on Chu Zihang. It provided him with Odin's armor and abilities, but it also put him under Odin's control.

## Logic and principles

Odin wanted the world to remain mostly the same as it already was, which created an evident obstacle: Chu Zihang could not exist in it, since his body was now trapped in the Beijing Nibelungen, serving as Odin's stand-in. Chu Zihang's actions in the past years were instrumental to the current state of the world. His role now had to be filled by other individuals, and his sudden absence justified.

## Differences from the previous timeline.

* Chu Zihang now officially died with his father in the Beijing Nibelungen at the age of 15.
* Su Xiaoyan developed psychological pregnancy as a result and was sent to a mental hospital.
* Lu Mingfei took Zihang's place as the popular student of Shilan Middle School, becoming a basketball star, a saxophone soloist and the object of Chen Wenwen and Liu Miaomiao's affections. The school made a statue of him after he graduated.
* Abdullah Abbas took Zihang's place at Cassell College as president of the Lionheart Society, and became Caesar Gattuso's friend.
* Schneider never tutored another student after the Greenland incident.

Almost every person in the world completely forgot Chu Zihang. Few individuals remembered their previous lives, such as Lu Mingfei and eventually Zihang's mother, Su Xiaoyan. Their reaction to the sudden change of reality prompted them to think they had gone insane. Doctors diagnosed Mingfei as schizophrenic. Nono still remembered Lu mingfei as an unpopular, insecure teenager, which conflicted with everyone else's new perception of him.

After being freed from Odin's control, Chu Zihang also forgot the previous seven years of his life, and believed himself to be fifteen-years-old, despite having the body of a 22-year-old.

Lu Mingze later revealed that he did remember Chu Zihang, and that he knew what happened to him. He seemed indifferent to whether Chu Zihang returned to the world or not, as long as he could obtain the last quarter of Lu Mingfei's life.
Nibelungen

Yormungand's Nibelungen

A Nibelungen is a realm in space that can be created by Dragons from reflections of the real world. In this contained reality, a dragon can set the rules of nature, making it extremely dangerous for those who get inside.

## Principles

Nibelungens can vary in size; while Jörmungandr's encompassed a portion of Beijing's subway system, Odin's was a complete replica of the city and its outskirts.

### Access

Water always seems to be involved when entering a Nibelungen, since most documented accesses occurred during rainfall or in the middle of the ocean.

Dragons can create conditions to keep intruders from entering or leaving. Fenrir created a room where those who were trapped had to win a Texas Poker match for the right to meet him, while Odin required a sacrifice from those who wished to escape his domain.

Odin had a second Nibelungen in the arctic circle called The Hall of Heroes, and it was only accessible on Christmas Day.

### Behavior

It is difficult to die inside of a Nibelungen. In Jörmungandr's, it wasn't possible to die by starvation, even when the bodies of its prisoners slowly dried out. A location or object that was copied by a Nibelungen remains unaffected when its real world counterpart is changed or destroyed, such as Chu Tianjiao's apartment.
Mingze Faction

Beginnings of the organization

The "Mingze Faction" is a secret global organization started and directed by Number Zero in the early 1990s.

They are said to possess trillions of dollars in assets and affiliated personnel in many world governments and private institutions. They are also the prime financiers of the Yamata no Orochi. Direct orders by Lu Mingze are carried by the Nanny Trio.

### Known members

* Lu Mingze (Leader)
* Zero
* Sakatoku Mai
* Su Enxi
Dragon Raja V - The Mourner Returns

Dragon Raja V - The Mourner Returns is a web novel written by Jiang Nan and the fifth story in the Dragon Raja series. The serialization was cancelled in 2019, when plans for the revised editions were announced.

The story will be finished in the revised edition, which will start serialization in 2023 under the name Dragon King 2.

## Official synopsis

These are the demon kings in hell biting each other. The iron sword and sharp claws ripped apart the air, leaving traces of frost and flames. As soon as the blood splashed out, it was turned into blood-red steam by their high temperatures. The shock wave came and went in the long corridor, and there was not a single piece of un-shattered glass. Even the building was crumbling.
Dragon Raja (manhua series)

Collected volumes of Dragon Raja II

The Dragon Raja comic series (龙族 漫画) is a manhua adaptation of the novels of the same name. Yan Kai produced the first and third series. Mi Er was in charge during the second series. Chapters were published in printed format and collected in volumes.

The first and second series were officially licensed and translated to english by Webnovel in 2020. There are no official plans to translate the third series since the original was cancelled.

## Publication history

The manhua was initially approved by Zhiyin Manke, their initial request was for Yan Kai to publish manhua chapters with the same frequency as the novel updates from Jiang Nan in order to boost sales.

Since the first novel was already released, the manhua adaptation had to speed up the story's pacing in order to keep up with the second novel's publication rhythm. This approach was dropped after chapter six due to the poor reception from the readers, allowing Yan Kai to improve the art and pacing. The overall reception of the first series was mixed.

The second series was adapted by manhua artist Mi Er, who redesigned the characters and drastically changed the art style. The reception of the series improved, as well as volume sales, which led to the approval of an adaptation of the third novel, illustrated by Wang Zhiquiang, who kept Mi Er's character designs.

For the third series, Jiang Nan got involved in the writing process from the beginning. Changes and additions to the story were made, which intended to appeal to a comic reading audience, shifting the tone to a lighter one and adding comedic elements. These changes were negatively received by readers. This, coupled with a perceived decline in the art quality, led to a drop in readership and volume sales. After internal struggles in the Zhiyin Manke magazine and a crescent struggle to compete with the popularization of web comics, the series was discontinued.

Constantine is Norton's twin sibling. Together, they are the "twins in the throne" that conform the Elemental Dragon King of Bronze and Fire.

## Biography

### Ancient History

Constantine and his brother Norton were created by Nidhogg thousands of years ago, and they participated in his defeat. They resided for a time in Europe before moving to China, where they founded the city of Baidi, made almost entirely of bronze. Norton changed his name to Wang Mang and Constantine changed his to Liu Xiang. They seized control of the Han dynasty and allied with Gongsun Shu, who occupied Sichuan.

Constantine and Norton were extremely close, and they lived in a small traditional Chinese house. They eventually were attacked by dragon hunting families allied with Liu Xiu and at the sight of their imminent defeat, Norton decided to sink the city in the Yangtze River. Constantine pleaded to be devoured so Norton could fight back, but he refused, since he would have to endure the loneliness of losing him.

The pair managed to survive by hiding in bronze vases as embryos, waiting to be reborn.

### Resurrection and death

In 2009, Constantine's vase was found and secured by Ye Sheng and Aki Sakatoku, agents of Cassell College. After the research team was wiped out by one of Norton's dragon servants, Anjou took the vase back to Chicago.

Constantine was extracted from the vase by scientist of Cassell, and he felt the presence of his brother nearby. He escaped the lab and roamed through the campus and its surroundings until he managed to find Norton, who was reborn as a human named Ronald Tang years ago and couldn't remember his previous life.

Constantine's draconic body frightened Ronald, who tried to hide in the college's olympic pool. Constantine entered the water and started boiling it, forcing Ronald and other students to get out. Among them was Lu Mingfei, who didn't knew who Constantine was and failed to help him when he asked for his brother.

Ronald escaped and forced his brother to chase him. Caesar Gattuso and Mai Sakatoku distracted him while Anjou and Lu Mingfei prepared a counterattack. Anjou used Time Zero to stab Constantine in the forehead with a dragon slaying knife, and Lu Mingfei shot him with a Philosopher's Stone bullet. Mortally wounded, Constantine desperately searched for Norton and finally reached him, restoring his memories right before dying. A maddened Norton escaped to the ruins of Baidi and was later slayed by Lu Mingfei with Lu Mingze's help.

### Skeleton

Constantine's bones were kept by Cassell College in the Ice Cellar and they used them to produce philosopher stones. The Gattuso Family tried to secure access to the skeleton through their influence in the School Board but their attempts failed. Jörmungandr infiltrated the vault with the purpose of consuming the skeleton herself, but she was stopped by Sakatoku Mai and Lu Mingze.

In 2012, an intruder suspected of being Odin incapacitated Anjou and stole the skeleton from the cellar.
Giovanni

Giovanny is an S-Rank member of the Execution Bureau and an agent of the Secret Party. She is Lu Lincheng's wife and Lu Mingfei's mother.

Both she and her husband had high dragon blood purity, when she got pregnant with Mingfei, the Secret Party considered the possibility of the child being born as a pure dragon. In front of the council, Giovanni asked for the right to give birth to her child on a controlled and supervised environment, where Lincheng offered himself to deliver his son. Mingfei was born a stable hybrid but he was put under supervision for the rest of his life.

After her son's birth, Giovanni and Lincheng traveled around the world performing different missions for the Execution Bureau, leaving no traces, reports or evidence of their activities, they reported directly to Principal Anjou. This lifestyle led them to neglect their son, to the point where their personalities and identities were still a mystery to him.
Death Servitor

Death servitors, also known as **Undead Serfs** in the manhua adaptation, are creatures that lost their human condition due to a lack of balance in their hybrid blood.

## Principles

A hybrid has both human and dragon blood in their veins. If the percentage of dragon blood exceeds the *critical blood limit* (50%), the human genes will be forcibly modified into dragon genes, this process is known as draconization.

Before the human genes are completely rewritten, they will make a last-second comeback and prevent a full draconization, turning the hybrid into a Death Servitor instead. Death Servitors are described as lacking an identity, with a thirst for blood and a deep desire to serve their dragon overlords. They're trapped between life and death, they're no longer humans but dragons won't recognize them as equals.

Other variants of the servitors include those who have been resurrected by a dragon. They look like humans on the outside and can remain hidden among them, waiting for the right moment to serve their masters.

#### Corpses

A variant of the death servitor. These hybrids and dragons were resurrected after their death using alchemic techniques. They display draconic features more prominently and they viciously seek to consume blood, despite being incapable of digesting their prey. Corpse mermaids had a snake tail instead of legs, mummified faces, blue scales covering their bodies and a total length of 5 meters.

An army of mermaid-type corpses was reanimated and used by Herzog in the Japanese trench. It was eventually wiped out by Uesugi Erii and the efforts of Lu Mingze's faction.
Frigga Bullets

Frigga bullets are a non-lethal type of ammunition designed to simulate the effects of a real wound.

They are loaded with a series of chemicals that work as a powerful sedative, they also release a blood-colored substance to create the illusion of a bullet-inflicted wound. The bullets are frequently used in Execution Bureau missions, target practices and events like the Day of Liberty.

Powerful individuals, such as Gen Chisei and the Dance King can tolerate multiple Frigga bullet impacts before succumbing to their sedating effects.
Black Swan Bay

Black Swan Bay was a Soviet research installation led by Dr. Jung Von Herzog that specialized in the research of dragons and Hybrids. Herzog's experiments had the main goal of producing super-hybrids using a sample of Uesugi Koeru's genes.

### Location and history

The base was located in Siberia, near a cave system where a pure-blood dragon was frozen in the ice. The creature was once discovered by Rasputin, who created multiple mutated creatures using its blood. When the experiments ran out of control, he closed the main entrance and went back to Russia.

Initially a German scientist during the Nazi regime, Herzog was captured by Soviet soldiers and his research was financed by them instead. They built a lab next to the cave, where he produced and stored tens of thousands of embryos.

### Orphanage

The base had multiple laboratories, storage rooms, dormitories and even a church. There was an orphanage where hybrid children were kept. The shape of the structure allowed for a "green space" where grass could grow and recreational activities took place. Those who misbehaved were tagged using a plastic hairpin with the shape of a yellow butterfly and locked up at night.

Herzog and his personnel practiced different surgeries on the orphans to manipulate their abilities. Some of the subjects received a brain surgery that incapacitated them unless Herzog sounded a clapper.

### Destruction

During the fall of the Soviet Union, a man named Bondarev arrived at the harbor and convinced Herzog to leave with him after they were discovered by an invisible assailant. Herzog then drugged all of his personnel and the orphans during their Christmas party and trapped them. They took the most important embryos and research, but before they entered the helicopter, Bondarev betrayed Herzog and shot him multiple times. The dragon under the ice was extracted and the installation bombed by Russian fighter jets.

Number Zero and Renata were the only unintended survivors.

* Manhua (1)
* Manhua (2)

EVA is an artificial intelligence powered by a supercomputer built under Cassell College. She communicates through a hologram, her public personality is called Norma, when she acts as the college's A.I. Butler.

## History

### Creation

Development on an advanced computer system for Cassell began in 1946, when the Secret Party became interested in computer technology advancements of the time, she was constantly upgraded through the years. EVA received the secret prime directive of protecting and supporting Lu Mingfei through any means necessary.

After the death of a student named Norma Rohens during the Greenland Ice Sea Mission, her former classmate and lover Finger Von Frings modeled a holographic butler for the college after her.

### Functionality and capabilities

As Norma, she registered and administered all the information of the college and its students, even sending them assignments during the summer and delivering the results of their evaluations.

Norma also monitored the entire internet to support the Execution Bureau's search for clues of Dragon activity. While every student in Cassell knew Norma, very few people were aware of EVA's existence.

As a secret war-oriented personality protocol, EVA was programmed to be activated only under emergency circumstances. EVA can hack through almost every network on the planet, allowing her to track subjects with high precision and coordinate operations for the Execution Bureau. She can only be bypassed by users with black access cards or by typing in the mainframe console located in the Ice Cellar. EVA has 140,000 times the processing power of Norma.
Ghost-toothed Dragon Vipers

Ghost-toothed Dragon Vipers (齿龙蝰, *Chǐ lóng kuí)* are an aquatic dragon subspecies.

## Characteristics

Like other dragon sub-species, the vipers are ferocious and violent. They are capable of biting through metal and eating all the flesh of living creatures in a matter of seconds. Vipers prefer to eat their victims alive, opting to secrete adrenaline to keep them conscious while they devour their insides.

## History

The vipers have been present in dragon history since ancient times, where they served as executioners. Those who were sentenced to death were tied up to a bronze pillar and submerged, offered as food for the creatures.

In 2011, vipers were discovered living at the bottom of the Japanese Trench, where they ate through a dying shark. Cassell College commissioners had to keep quiet to prevent the creatures from noticing them. The vipers managed to reach the underground water deposits under Mount Fuji and were found by the scientific teams of the Yamata No Orochi, leading to the discovery of the Eight Headed Snake. The encounter led to a carnage, where dozens of excavators were devoured alive, including the leader of the operation, Sakurai Masahiko. To prevent them from reaching Japan's natural ecosystems, they were promptly burned.
Dragon Feast

A dragon feast was a type of social event carried out by the high-class hybrid society.

According to Anjou, as it was told in ancient myths, dragons had a natural attraction to treasures and precious metals. This attribute was inherited by hybrids, who also feel naturally compelled to gather and live among their kind. This culminated on social events where great amounts of wealth are displayed, sold or auctioned.

At the start of a Dragon Feast, lights will be turned off so everyone can access their dragon side and display their golden eyes. Once their nature as hybrids with high-blood purity has been confirmed, the event will begin.

Hilbert Jean Anjou took Lu Mingfei to a dragon feast in the summer of 2010, where they recovered the Seven Deadly Sins and took them back to Cassell. On his way out, Anjou was invited to a meeting by his old rival Henkel, where he rejected an offer to side with his faction to take control of the world after the fall of the last dragons.
Secret Party

The Secret Party, also known as **The Argonauts** in the game adaptation, is a multi-national hybrid organization whose main goal is to eradicate all dragons. In-universe, the name "Secret Party" is rarely used, and it's most commonly known as "**The Abraham Blood Pact**".

They have existed for thousands of years and are greatly responsible for the initial fall of the Dragon Raja. Their members include Cassell College and seven influential European hybrid families, as well as the Yamata no Orochi, a Japanese underworld organization.

Mona

The simplest of way too many elaborate outfits.

Mona (Also known as Ophelia the lovecraftian dragon) is the new real protagonist of the Dragon Raja novels, a Cassell College student who arrived to America with a fake passport (but we're not telling anyone so don't worry about it, ok?).

### Biography

Born and raised in Black Swan Bay, Mona was by default condemned to having a traumatic backstory. After escaping a certain well-known child genocide, Mona was pushed by her adoptive daughter into a frozen lake (It was an act of love, shut up!).

#### Abrupt time skip

After being awakened to fight with a bunch of (very salty) space jellyfish people, Mona was forced to interact with the likes of Lu Mingfei, Finger Von Frings, and the school fratboy Caesar Gattuso, for which she was rewarded by her author with the affections of fan-favorite Chu Zihang, who would eventually become her husband as well as some flirting with Caesar's own girlfriend Nono (much to the chagrin of all those Luminono stans).

And then she goes back to space and everyone is sad, Yaaaaay!
Wood Clappers

The Wood Clappers were a musical instrument used by Jung Von Herzog to control those who went under his Brain Pontine Splitting Surgery.

The clappers produced a sound similar to that of Indian aboriginal music. Those who were affected experienced visions of despair and suffering, commonly described as "hell on earth". The clappers can be used to awaken violent tendencies, immobilize the individual or block their ability to use Yanling skills.
