Every Draavokiin knows that their slight frame belies true, mighty Dragon Lord power. They are ingenious crafters and devoted allies within their warrens, but those who trespass into their territory find them to be inspired skirmishers, especially when they have the backing of one of the mighty Dragon Lords. In their beliefs, they carry the blood of the Dragon Lords themselves, and who knows, it could be true. Though even their own existence has been thought a myth for centuries. Then again, everyone once thought Goblurins to be a myth. Maybe they are real. But could they really be related to the Dragon Lords?
Basic Information
Anatomy
They are short, about 3 feet tall, reptilian humanoids with slender bodies and long tails. They often boast their distant Dragon Lord ancestry and every Draavokiin displays one or more draconic features, such as stout horns, razor-sharp teeth, or - more rarely - vestigal wings or dragon breath. They mature very quickly, though live much longer than Goblurins, reaching adulthood by about 12, and living to 60 years of age. The colour of their scales can vary widely. Most often, they mimic the hues of Chaotic or Ordered Dragon Lords, with a mix of slight darker or lighter scales that create a mottled appearance. The scales of newly hatched Draavokiin often reflects the community's Dragon Lord exemplar. But whether that's the Dragon Lord they serve or the one they are descended from, that's a matter of debate.
Additional Information
Social Structure
They often achieve an unshakable fervor and loyalty to their new cause or leader, however, they are also infamous for sensing a proverbial sinking ship, and once their source of power fails or seems doomed, their morale breaks swiftly.
Whether led by a Dragon Lord or not, Draavokiin almost always identify themselves with one of the Dragon Lords which serves as their spiritual exemplar. Their societies regularly adopt laws and cultural norms inspired by the exemplar's personality. For example, Flame Draavokiin are fiercely territorial and aggressive, much like the Dragon Lord of Flame, Flamdrone.
Facial characteristics
Long snouts, reptilian or draconic like in appearance. Some have stout horns or razor-sharp teeth.
Geographic Origin and Distribution
They are found all over the world, particularly in areas where Dragon Lord sightings have been made.
Average Intelligence
They have an ingrained cautiousness that keeps them alive, but despite this, they are often seen as quite dim, especially compared to the crafty Goblurins.
Symbiotic and Parasitic organisms
Some Draavokiin warrens live in the viscinity of their Dragon Lord exemplars.
Civilization and Culture
Naming Traditions
A young Draavokiin's given name is rarely more than a syllable or two. However, as they age, achieve status, and accomplish great deeds, they add more syllables to their names. They rarely have surnames, except in an effort to better fit into a community, in which case they typically adopt the surname of an inspiring figure in that group.
