The First Dragons

Life, Identity

Known as the Era of Dragons in some mythologies, the time of the first dragons in the world of Yyrda; although no written records exist from this time, the cults of Bahamut and Tiamat refer to it in their scriptures as the age when the dragon-gods walked the earth, with all dragons after them descended of their union.

The eldest dragons speak of the legend of Feyndovul, the first child of the dragon-gods and the Allmother of dragonkind thereafter, who succeeded Bahamut and Tiamat when they left the material plane.

Some mythologies regard the brith of the dragons as the world's way of healing from the wound of the Cataclysm; in more recent centuries, the Arcanaeum has discovered through arcane research that dragons alone among all beings appear to fully unite matter and magic of the Weave in a harmonious whole.

Some apocryphal texts refer to a predecessor to Bahamut and Tiamat, a great serpent named Bara who is said to have laid down to rest in the far east of the world near Kyra Dorus.
