Description
Ashscale Dominon
After the death of Grolk'Vyldrok, the Ancient Green Dragon that lead the city of Drak Thaylar, leadership was assumed by a faction know as the Ashscale dominion. Rumored to have ties with both the goblins of Gyul'Bahdur and even fiendish beings from other planes, many dark magics have been said to have been arising from that part of Dassomere. Tales of black magic rituals, worship of evil deities, and executions of any who speak against the shadowy figureheads of the Dominion swirl. Many believe that new age monstrosities have been coming from this once great Draconic city.
Commanders of Chaos
Ashscale Commanders are some of the best battlefield leaders in Dassomere. Having an unnatural affinity for the tactics, many of these Commanders are selected after showing great potential and loyalty to the dominon. After they are chosen, these soldiers are subjected to intense dark magic rituals using corruption stones to warp their minds and some of their physical attributes. Often times, these rituals lead to the subject growing much more muscle mass, an undying lust for battle, and even changes in the very natures of their breath weapons.
Loyal Until Death
Those that are subjected to the dark magic rituals of the Ashscale Dominion are known to exhibit an unnatural loyalty. Whether they be pure dragonborns, or mutated draconians, most of their minds have been warped passed any resemblance of an autonomous individual. They are known to fight to the death regardless of how dire the situation is. Some even say that Ashscale soldiers are incapable of refusing a command from those above their rank. This often leads to any conflict involving the dominion to be excessively bloody.
