Dragonfolk: Difference between revisions

Dragonfolk are a proud and mighty remnant of an ancient kingdom ruled by the immortal nine dragons. Originally, this lost kingdom was populated by a variety of humanoids, but the nine dragons cast powerful magic that transformed the kingdom’s citizenry into the first dragonfolk. The descendants of these first dragonfolk are the dragonfolk that populate Ancerra today. Though their kingdom has long since fallen into antiquity, and the dragons themselves are veiled in myth and legend, most dragonfolk still hold onto the regal bearing of their ancestors and embrace the finer points of culture such as art, dance, and song. Visually, they resemble their true dragon ancestors with tough scales, reptilian tails, curled horns, and even wings. While most are flightless, all dragonfolk can breathe fire by tapping into the vestigial power of their ancestry.

Dragonfolk communities tend to promote matters of self- improvement and exemplify beauty of the inner self in all things both physical and intellectual. Most dragonfolk believe that improvement of the self serves to improve the community and embrace a “strong links make a strong chain” mentality. While this can develop tightly-knit communities built on mutual support, it can also lead to harsh ostracization of those deemed unsupportive of the community.  

Dragonfolk in society are often praised for their eagerness to learn, meticulous instruction, and service to the local community. It is not unusual to see dragonfolk artisans taking on multiple apprentices or to see dragonfolk city guards organizing community self-defense lessons for the poor and exploited.
