The youngest of the races of Itherün, Dragonborn are a driven people and often find themselves in successful, wealthy, and highly influential positions. Sent to the world with divine purpose, they are a highly religious people and see it as their destiny to shape the world.
OOC Note: It is likely that your three times great grandparents were the first ever dragon born to have been seen in the world. Have a think about your family tree and who your most prominent ancestor was.
Civilization and Culture
Dragonborn have names very much like that of dragons which are long, multi syllable affairs which are long and complex for most people to pronounce. For this reason they often contract their name or take on a name that is appropriate for that region to ensure that they can appropriately fit in with the culture they adopt.
All dragonborn speak draconic. On top of this they speak the language of the region in which they live, and they speak the language of the region in which their first ancerstor appeared.
In the year 297 CE, the Dragonborn arrived. From mountain and tundra, swamp and coastline, forest and desert, they came from the lairs of long dead dragons. They spoke to the people of Itherün where they arrived and declared they were representatives of the Draconic gods Bahamut, Sardinor, and Tiamat. They said the gods were dissatisfied with how little their first creations interacted with the new wave of humanity and so sent forth the dragonborn to ingratiate themselves in the civilisations that stood at the time.
They arrived with vast wealth in many forms; gold, gems, art, knowledge. This wealth quickly elevated them to positions of power and influence. Ambassadors, politicians, advisors, everything shy of monarchs and emperors, appearing to prefer giving advice rather than ruling directly.
