Dragon (race)

A dragon (Draconis rex) is a dangerous race of monster with wings and the ability to use a fiery breath attack.

After being cursed by Jas to guard her most powerful artefact, a creed of Dragonkin known as the Dactyl wished to create a race that would be similar to them, but without suffering the Curse's effects. Kerapac created the first known dragon using his own blood and the egg of a large aquatic lizard. Phalaks soon created a similar, but weaker dragon. The two bred and created the dragons as we know them today.

In Ashenfall, the Cabal had used and created dragons and other draconic creatures in their experimentations. Most of the dragons they created were enslaved.
