Tao Dong the Balance

So as the Wyrm Gate is the bridge between the light and dark dimensions of reality, Tao Dong is the embodiment of light and dark within the Gate itself. It is said that her body changes to reflect the current balance of the Gate; at any given time, her scales might be white, black, or a mixture. The orb of light she holds in her hand is pure magic, and can be used to create new Dragon Shields. For this reason, hunters, poachers, peasants, and kings alike have sought her out. But the Wyrm Gate is not without its inherent defenses, and neither is she.

Teranha, the Living Rock

The brown dragons of Arcania are ancient creatures with remarkable powers and without any seeming interest in human affairs. The dragon Teranha is the rival of Brakish. Both live in the vast forests of Arcania, and both are old beyond remembering. At a certain time every year as winter approaches and the leaves have fallen, Teranha begins to solidify and merge with the soil, appearing to all the world as a massive boulder. Tall and majestic in his petrified state, humans will climb him and perform eldritch rituals of renewal on his static brow.

The Dragon Astronomer

I seek the skies for what they bring, Stars and splendorous planet rings. But what is beyond? Where might dragons dawn? I respond, Take wing.

The Scaled Son

Mother, by any other name, is still You. With your kind hands, big heart When you picked me up at the start Your love, did instill. That was the first time I flew.

Thindra, Living Lightning

“It’s not possible,” General Jarqıraw said to Commanding Officer Llars as the dragon Yarost feasted on their comrade’s corpses. He showered fiery spikes at the closest battalion as General Samson mounted him. Llars gripped his blade. “Stay,” Jarqıraw said. “This is not the time for Llars the Lightning. I need my CO here.” Llars the Lightning. His old war name. A scar. “Sorry sir,” Llars said, feeling adrenaline rush his nerves like crackling bolts. He dashed. A blitzkrieg of lightning danced across the battlefield, setting it ablaze and forcing Yarost back. Thindra formed as if Llars summoned her. He could feel her power surging within. Together, they struck.
