Dragons
Dragons are evil creatures of immense power. Possessing a dark intelligence, all dragons are power hungry and self serving.
Dragons were once a core part of the world, in a time now lost to myth and legend. They were tyrants of the world and they warred with each other and those that refused to bow to them. It is unknown how many of them there were but what has been discovered through intense research by the high mages of the Alaric Society is that they were sealed away by those they warred with. The consequence of such action was that magic was sealed away with them.
Centuries passed until Dragons and magic were just stories, superstition, and myth. This all changes at The Convergence . Along with the magic returning to the world, so came forth the dragons. The dragons were one of the main reasons the human civilizations began to crumble as they brought such destructive power that none could seemingly stand against them.
One nation, Zentru, rallied its neighbors and surviving refugees under one banner and managed to establish itself as a threat against the dragons instead of fodder for their carnage. As one nation over 14 years they pushed the Dragons and their thralls back until they had an established boarder, protected by their elite soldiers, and capable of fighting off the dragons.
What came next no one expected, the dragons all withdrew simultaneously and without warning. Some were in the middle of battle with humans, others were already separated from the conflicts. What became apparent was that the War of Dragons was over, but for reasons no one knew.
Dragons are still very active in the world and some conflict with their forces still occur, but they have yet to wage all out war again. Humanity has not dropped its guard however, fearing the destructive power of the dragons could fall upon them at any moment.
It is rumored that some dragons exist that can be bargained with for boons of many kinds, but all should be careful. No dragon is altruistic and each has their own ambitions and desires they value above all else.
