Red Drakkars

The **Red Drakkars**, also known as **Fire Drakkars** are a drakkar race from Edarverthicha. Notorious for their red scales and the fire breath, they also are the largest, strongest and most fearsome drakkars of the continent.

## Diet

Although omnivore, red drakkars are especially carnivore by choice, having the highest consumption per individual of Edarverthicha. They preferred charred meat by their flames and were natural cookers. The introduction of spices into their civilization thousands of years ago turned their dishes quite popular through the continent.

They consumed large amounts of alcohol, and although unable to feel its effects like smaller twolegs, they commonly used small doses of the black orbs to simulate the effects.

Red drakkars were the first to work with livestock in order to feed themselves, though preferring to give the work for twolegs, they assumed the work through less fortunate and poor individuals, working in the fields to produce grains to feed them.

The main meat consumed by drakkars was pork, second by beef. A large variety of meats were also produced, although far from the quantities of its two main dishes. Pigs were considered easier to raise since they only needed minimal care and food, thus justifying its abundance.

Red drakkars, as their cousin races, didn't chew their food, swallowing it whole; to help digestion, they would consume varied rocks in order to grind down their meals and expell them in waste later.

## Abilities

Red drakkars had a fire breath, which could be devastating up to a distance of 30 meters. The larger and older they grew, the more devastating and powerful their fire became, with red drakkars as Ariawyn could erase kilometers of land under her fire.

Red drakkars as their cousins had access to magical abilities, with theirs particularly related to fire.

They could fly the highest of any drakkar and with their massive wingspans were incredibly fast for their size, though not the fastest nor the most maneuverable of them.

## Society

The red drakkar society is the fruits of thousands of years of bloody conflicts, mistrust and superiority complex. Firstly founded by Zargon, the legendary red drakkar tskar, established the first base that future civilizations then reinforced with their own additions, especially the religious unity among drakkars, centered around the cult of Tsshar, the drakkar god of the sun.

### Family and Parenting

The red drakkar society is divided between two main types of relationship, monogamy, non-monogamy and polygamy.

In polygamous relationships, quite often associated with royalty, red drakkar males are married to several females and foster each clutch of eggs. The very origins of the practice comes from Zargon, who was famous for hoarding an entire group of wives and had uncountable drakkarets under his parenting. Females usually have preference to stronger and powerful males, which could boost their own ascension to power and nobility.

Unlike other races, such as the black drakkars, females fighting for a single male rarely occur, for the system guarantee the status of all individuals involved.
