Dragon

Dragons are very large and powerful reptilian animals capable of flying and breathing fire.

Tirod version
According to the Old and New Religions, the Dragons were the first race in Tirod.

Originally living alongside the other four enlightened races, the Dragons served as Tirods guardians and protectors. However, the dragon lord Vosir began to think that Dragons should rule Tirod themselves. When the other dragon lords refused to join him, he killed them all, proclaimed himself the "Dragon Emperor" and demanded the obedience of the Humans, Elves, Dwarves and Giants.

The resulting Dragon War went on as a stalemate for years, with many dragons following Vosir out of fear. Wounded and bleeding after a massive battle, Vosirs daughter Arphas was led by a spirit to a Norn, a powerful mystic capable of granting any wish. Arphas wished for a spell to end the war, and ended up going on five quests in order to gather ingredients for the spell. In actuality, the Norn was testing Arphas to see what she really wanted. In the end, she gave her the spell and a choice: forge her own path to peace, or blindly follow the arrogance of her father.
