They are the living evidence that all life was created through the unison of the elements, and thus all life is equal. Dragonkin are rare due to many of them sacrificing their bodies to create a new universe after The Shattering, which ended the Dragonkin’s old world. The various elements of Dragonkin took different shapes, but they did spawn smaller versions of themselves with a single thought. Dragonkin, unlike in faerie tales and D&D, don’t actually care much for treasure. Dragonkin value the survival of all life and only wishes to see that life continues to grow and evolve. Dragonkin, though elemental, have vivid purple blood flowing through them. Dragonkin’s blood is believed to be pure arcane energy. The Dragonkin have no sex or even concept of gender or sexuality. Dragonkin are easily fascinated by the wonders of nature.
