Draconis keep mostly to themselves not interacting with other races too much. Not because they think of themselves better but rather because they are hated and fired by some.

History 

A relatively new race that came to be because of a force simply referred to as "The course". What is the course and why they were poot under such a spell is a question they ask all too often. Some Draconis sages say that the world itself has done such a thing but no one knows (more on the course later). As a race, they are rejected and killed by the "true" Dragons, hated by most Dragonborn. Races that are enemies with certain dragons are hostile towards such Draconis.

 

Society

Draconis make outposts which they call sanctuaries in more secluded arias. Which are protected by the effects that their sages (leaders)have on the surrounding areas (sages would be considered accent dragon and have effects on the ecosystem). In these communities, Draconis live together and seek the ones that were turned to bring them to safety and to teach them to master the course. In these communities, the hostility between chromatic and metallics have subsisted as both are cursed and there is no need for hate. Tho having Gem-Draconis there as peacemakers helps. Even tho Draconis are mistrusted by most races and are self-sufficient they do trade with others. Some are artisans, jewellers, enchanters and much more. 

Religion is practised in their society. And they do worship the draconic gods it seems that not all of the draconic gods (Tiamat and others) hear their prayers. So the Draconis turned to the Ruby Dragon and there they found an answer as well as with a god calling himself Dark-father.

 

 

Appearance 

 Both prude and ashamed of what they are. Draconis appear humanoid with Draconic features such as horns, scales and tails some even wings (with the mastery of the curse). Their colours are as varied as there are. There is a Draconis for every dragon species and no 2 are alike. Having an intimidating appearance and usually standing as tall as 6 feet some even more. They can appear to be as varied in appearance as humanoids. Some my have scales framing their face, covering their back and more. Draconis seem to always have clawed hands, a tail, horns and Dubbel jointed dragon legs like Dragonborn and Kobald`s.

 

Draconis Names

They follow the naming traditions of dragons or they choose a name fully different. they usually keep the name given to them by their parents. Altho some gain additional names or titles as they grow older and are more part of their community.

 

The curse 

The course is a mysterious force or spell that started affecting Dragons seemingly overnight, Dragon parents would find one of their teenage wyrmlings has changed into a Draconis. Usually, one of two things would happen, one they were driven out or killed (mostly chromatics), or they were taken to a sanctuary. But now Draconis elders have found ways to find those who would change and get there before scenario one would happen. Draconis have figured that the curse can be nullified by an anti-magic field and they regain their Draconic appearance or they go thru course mastery. As far as they know the course can't be broken not even with the wish spell.
