Born wherever the draconic magic influences the people. Most often in the Southern Reaches, where they are seen as a great and divine blessing to any family, often being trained as leaders and priests. Other locations bring forth dragonborn as well, although in these cases it might happen, that the children are ostracised and seen as freaks.The type of Dragonborn seems to have special link to the dragon that influences the area they were born in.
