Dragon (people)

Overview

Dragons are mythic flying, fire-breathing beasts of great size and power. These great six-limbed retiples are exceptionally intelligent, and aside from their rarity, little else is known about their habits and abilities. They have a quadruped stance, with their middle limb pair being large chiropter wings capable of flight despite the mass and size of the beasts.
