Humans, are typically quite scared of dragonborn, but hold a curious fascination with this insight into the dragons.
Elves hold caution against the chromatic dragonborn, and tend to end conversations with the scaly folk very quickly.
Halflings don't care, and even want to have them as friends to help protect them, so are typically rays of sunshine around them.
Orcs have ancestral hate towards dragonborn and the feeling is mutual. In early years they were opposing sides, both travelling and settling, but orcs were raiders and dragonborn didn't like being raided.
