Greater Dragon Species




Polar Dragon "Draco Polaris Magnus" (Great Dragon of the Polar Regions)
Today the most Widespread Dragon Species, the Polar Dragon has specialized to live in the Cold and Unhospitable environments of Maximaris. It is thanks to this environment that the Polar Dragon has not been hunted as much as other Dragon Species during the last centuries. It is now under Portection in the Polar State, Kartinicia Polaris, Neuskarken and Alkland.

Habitat: Continental Maximaris, Dense Forests and Mountainous Regions.

Lair: Caves or other shelter located on high ground.

Food: Polar Bears, Deer, etc.

Size: 1-3 Metres High (Shoulder), 10-12 Metres Long.

"Draco Stornicus Magnus" (Greater Stornish Dragon)
The Great Stornish Dragon used to be the most successful Dragon Species until it was hunted to near extinction by Humans. Through Research in the Early 49th Century it was proven that the Stornish Dragon is one of the most, if not the most intelligent Dragon species. Due to it's Highly Protected Status and it's rarity today the exact levels of intelligence it posseses cannot be confirmed but many Stornish sources incist that the Stornish Dragon is able to Speak in Human Tongues and does in fact possess an intelligence level euqal to Humans.

„Draco Stornicus Worgensis“ (Stornisch Dragon of the Worgen Mountains)
The Worgen Dragon was once the unquestioned ruler of the Worgen Mountains wich stretch across the Stornish peninsula and is featured prominently in the Old Faith's Holy Book "The Book of Destiny". During the last centuries though, the Worgen Dragon has been pushed back by the Great Stornish Dragon, finding new habitats away from human expansion. Due to this Worgen Dragons are extremely Rare Today and can only be found in certain parts of the Worgen Mountains in Stornland, Dachlasi and Berisia. They are also closely related to the Greater Stornish Dragon and therefore are thought to share similar levels of Intelligence. It is also highly Protected in Stornland, Dachlasi and Berisia.

Due to the inacessibility of the Inner Zagrian Lands, this species was able to live in relative peace there until colonization by the advanced nation took place in the 4800s. But even after being hunted for the last 200 years, the Wyvern is now recovering in the CCC Quarantine Zone due to less human presence and interference there.

White Cheravnian "Draco Odrivakius Magnus" (Odrivakian Dragon)
The White Cheravnian Dragon, just like the Stornish Dragon, has been forced to move further north due to being Hunted by Humans. Although today it enjoys similar protection and can be found not only in the far north of the Odrivakia's but also in the Great Dragon Reservation in the Federal Republic of Odrivakia.

In the Early 4700s a Dagyaran General named Vladivar Dukosk went against Dagyars chain of command to train and rear a Troop of 'Dragon Riders'. The Unit was inducted into the Royal Army of Dagyar and at the Battle of Fortripoya, 4721, the Dagyaran Dragon Riders were deployed. When a Unit of the Khazarians opened fire on the Fortripoyans, due to a lack of training around Gunpowder Weapons, the Dragons were massively startled, threw their Riders off and went into a frenzy. General Dukosk argued with the Khazar about the effectiveness of the Dragon Riders after this incident but because of his obsessions with proving their worth even after this, Dukovsk was branded as a Madman and lost his rank and titles. He gained notoriety by becoming this character known as the 'Mad Dragon Rider'.
