## House Gryzlar

### Titles:

Dragonlord of YarduagePraetor of the Dragonbinders

## History:

House Gryzlar has it’s origins along with the rest of the Dragonbinder houses in a tribe of power-hungry warriors, who slew Cyranis the Copper, progenitor of the Copper Dragonhost, and then enslaved her children.

They originated among the people of the kingdom of Yarduage, a small tribal kingdom near where the Tower of Los stands today, but were given no respect by the people there. Founder of this dynasty, Daemon “the Great Beggar”, was one of the people to go off and slay the dragon Cyranis and during this time he began to prove himself to the generals and commanders with his fighting capabilities, but would often clash with the other Dragonscourges over political and cultural differences. He and his peers tracked the Elder Dragon to her lair and after a fierce battle, slew her and drank her blood. The leader of that group, either Lamagon Vakar or Daxtos Scaitos, declared themselves to be the first Praetor of the newly founded Dragonbinders, harnessing the first of the Copper Dragons with his new found powers.

it was some time later that Dameon challenged the Praetor to a dual and slew him with a poisoned sword, becoming the second Preator and setting the precedent of Preator's taking power after killing their predecessor in battle.
