Dragons

Dragon Clans

There are nine dragon clans that live upon Magesc: ysali, ayrala, kiandri, firani, peisio, aiskala, gaili, aedaun and diabi. Each of these clans have a different elemental affinity. The same elements used by the magescians. Magic, as the people of Magesc consider it, comes from the dragons themselves.

The dragons once lived in peace and harmony with one another and ran the world of Magesc without ever having a single problem when the gods first created it. The clans even came together and collectively decided they needed a true leader. Together, they created the most powerful dragon in the world; The Celestial Dragon. The dragon known by them as Kalyth, the Majestic. He has the power of all the dragon clans combined and, after his creation, led them for centuries.

Within the last few centuries, sightings of the rare Celestial Dragon have decreased, but Kalyan still lives on, granting his blessing to those he deems worthy.

When the gods decided to create their individual races, even the dragons knew that life was about to change. The new people invaded their world, took over their lands, and found refuge in their home. The dragons themselves were not happy about the gods endeavors, but were forced to live with the consequences. Thus, they now fight to defend their territory and will attack whoever gets in their way.

Dragon Souls

Collecting the souls of deceased dragons is a favorite pastime within Magesc. Prior to the introduction of zil, the souls were used as the main form of currency within the world. For a magescian, having many souls equated to having power and luck. Obtaining enough of these souls could cause fear in other dragons as well as respect and honor amongst your peers. The souls themselves are about the size of a small apple and are easily able to be crushed within the palm of one's hand. When crushed, these souls are used in order to help one grow strong and powerful, imbuing the dragon's magic within the user themselves.

Dragon Tears

The tears of dragons were a secondary form of currency in Magesc. They are not as coveted as their dragon soul counterpart, yet are an even larger part of Magesc's economy as they are much more common than finding a dragon's soul. Oftentimes they have been turned into jewelry and viewed as precious as diamonds. A dragon tear’s magical potency is weaker than that of a dragon soul, but they are just as useful in terms of utilizing their magical energy for power, albeit in larger quantities.

Ysali

"The clan of nature. Using the power of plant life, herbs, and poisons to heal and deal damage to their enemies."

The ysali clan can be found on Soudul, Serenia, and Ayr. They typically travel in groups so that they can protect one another. They are the smallest of all the Magesc dragon clans and have a strong bond to the earth, allowing them to heal themselves and their allies, as well as use the powers of the grassy planes against their enemies.

Ayrala

"The clan of the wind. Using the power of fog and air to escape combat and deal damage to their enemies."

The small continent of Ayr was named after the dragons which reside on it, the ayrala clan. The clan of wind and fog. The power the ayrala dragons possess is much more alarming than most consider. Their small statures do not compare to their strength whatsoever. Most ayrala are stronger than many other types simply because they are the fastest fliers and have the strongest wings, able to make it to any of the other continents with ease; whilst other clans must make stops in order to rest. Though they tend to like being left alone on Ayr and don't travel to other continents often.

Ayrala Dragon

Kiandri

"The clan of lightning. Using the power of electricity to energize themselves and deal damage to their enemies."

The kiandri clan reside, for the most part, on the continent of Eowyn. The harsh desert climates create for a perfect atmosphere that the kiandri enjoy. Their abilities for conducting electricity have made them a fierce defender of their territory. They are also known as the quickest dragons on land, being able to dart from one place to another with ease.

Firani

"The clan of fire. Using the power of fire, magma, and heat to deal damage and damage over time to their enemies."

The firani clan reside upon the continent of Eowyn. A large foe, these dragons do tend to live in groups, but can also live a solo existence if they so desire. Temperamental and explosive, these dragons have the skills of controlling mass amounts of fire and magma before blasting it off towards their enemies. Living near Kaiatasel, the active volcano, makes their power stronger (or so the legend says). The closer they are to the volcano, the more powerful they become.

Firani dragon

Peisio

"The clan of water. Using the power of water to heal and deal damage to their enemies."

The peisio clan are most often found in the depths of the lakes around Magesc but also take refuge in the ocean surrounding the different continents. They are very powerful in the ways of water manipulation, causing large maelstroms when flying out over the ocean. Legend has it that the peisio dragons were the ones to create the Celestial Vortex with the help of Abronaxus himself.

Peisio dragon

Aiskala

"The clan of ice. Using the power of ice to negate damage and deal it to their enemies."

The aiskala clan has made the continent of Aisko their home. It is said that their power stems from the crystals on their heads. These dragons have always been revered for their 'king-like' appearance, the icy crown resembling royalty. They use the power of ice and can blast an ice beam from their mouth or start an entire blizzard in no time at all. Legend says that these dragons took over Aisko, which was a continent just like Soudul and Serenia, and covered it with ice, freezing over the lake so that they could have a place to call home.

Aiskala dragon

Gaili

"The clan of earth. Using the power of the rock to increase defense and deal damage to their enemies."

The gaili clan have been known for their massive bodies and strength over the rocky earth for centuries. Their power benefits them by causing massive spikes right out of the ground, hurling massive boulders, and even causing earthquakes. They have chosen to live in the mountainous region of Eowyn for the protections the mountains provide. They do travel from place to place a lot by themselves, never in hordes, though they are easily spotted when in the air, unlike when they are camouflaged in their mountainous terrain. Legend states that the first gaili dragons that roamed Magesc are the ones who broke the continents apart to create what we have today.

"The clan of light. Using the power of light to heal and deal damage to their enemies."

The aedaun clan is known for their extremely large bodies and power of the light. The two twin clans, the diabi and the aedaun, are the largest dragons in all of Magesc, besides the celestial dragon, who is the only one bigger. They harness the light energies of the continent of Serenia to power them up before they take off for their destination. This rare breed isn't found often, but when found, they really put up a good fight.

They call him Kalyth, the Majestic. He is able to use any or all other dragon magic combined, Kalyth is the most powerful dragon in the entire world. There are many rumors surrounding the celestial dragon, the biggest one is that he will grant wishes to those whom he deems worthy.
