Dragons

Dragons are creatures of legends and myths about which it is not acceptable to speak out loud so as not to jinx.

## Appearance

It is not known whether all dragons look similar or are significantly different, but what is known is that their body is covered with scales, they have four limbs, horns on their head, they have a tail and wings, and they have *mighty* flames.

## Description of dragons by the Fae Cluster

*“Your obsession with Dragons is dangerous and yet we know you do not care about such warnings. We hope your first encounter will be as favorable as it was for you to meet us. They usually do not care to seem harmless and approachable. Knowledge, understanding and entertainment are desires we share with them but our ways of acquiring them differ greatly. However they are more individualistic and most care not to converse with us.”*

## Description of dragons by Niivalyr Olanis(Elfie)

*It took him another minute to calm down, summoning some kind of blue drink and taking a sip before he said anything, “Dragonriders… ridiculous. Ludicrous. Thoroughly laughable. I have not heard of anybody avoiding to say the name but with what I learned about human superstition, I suppose they wish to avoid bringing the terror down on themselves. None of those proudly proclaiming they would hunt the legendary beast have returned. Not even the legends themselves proclaim such an absurd victory. My only advice is to run… run and hide if you should ever come across such a monster. The only records, only tales possibly holding a kernel of truth speak of despair.”*

## List of dragons

* **Audur** - lvl ???? – Guardian of the West. Uses wood and life magic, a dull green dragon with the Cleansing Flame. Has a basic understanding of space magic. Doesn't condone those of death, fire and ash. Killed by Ravana Vor Itar.
* **Garonoth** - lvl ???? – Immortal Dragon of the North. A red dragon with the Flame of Creation(Actually it is unknown but its imitation has it).
* Unknown silver-colored dragon that Feynor worshipped, this is also the only description of the dragon statue in the temple – *The locator pointed at a large wooden chest sitting in front of a dragon coated in silver.*
* Dragon of Calamity - lvl *3105* - Dark red dragon driven by instinct. Ilea was lead to it by Garonoth due to her search for a worthy foe. Killed by Ilea. Later revealed to be an unawakened son of Garonoth. When awakened, he would have been named Meran.

* In fact, Pierce had jinxed and summoned the dragon(Audur).

* Surviving an encounter with a dragon is considered an achievement and affects the evolution options.

* In her journey through the territory of the north North, Ilea noticed an unknown silhouette of wings among the mountains.

* Pierce claims that a dragon fought far to the North(north north?).

* They are worshipped by an entire race called the Feynor, and they have even built a temple for them.

* Dragons are not the most aggressive powerful creatures.

* Audur was identified by her name and not by specie or speciality.

*“Are you mad!?” she asked and let go of Ilea again. “You can’t just blurt out that name, nothing good comes of it.”*

*“Alright, alright. Always wondered why people here never mention them. They exist though, right? They have to. It’s a bloody fantasy world.” she said and chuckled.*

*“Maybe. I only know some stories. Of cities vanishing and whole kingdoms burning. It’s forbidden to talk of them and common knowledge that one doesn’t utter the name, lest one appears and swallows you whole.” Felicia said in a dramatic voice.*

4. ↑ **370** – Appearance of the Garonoth imitation, *Two arms and legs, wings, covered in red scales and dark horns. Red eyes staring at her from a dragon’s head with teeth as long as her forearms. He was longer than a drake and taller too. Perhaps half the size of a Taleen Praetorian.*
5. ↑ **660** – The creature itself had four legs ending in claws, its whole body covered in scales that shimmered with light within Ilea’s dominion. Its head looked similar to a Drake or Wyvern, scaled with two long horns jutting out from its skull, angled backwards and rather straight. Its maw remained closed as it glanced around the hall with inquisitive eyes, a tail sliding out of the entrance as the being moved down the set of steps without a sound.

Its wings remained tucked on its back, the creature still reaching a height of nearly five meters, about three times as long, more with its thin tail.

“How… ah, yes,” Ilea said, looking at the carvings in the stone. Front and center was a prominent four legged winged being flying upwards, smaller horned distinctly Feynor creatures knelt near the bottom of the carving while kneeling in prayer.
