General Overview

Many thousands of years ago, a group of mortals stumbled across a cave. At the back and nearly buried in dirt, they found dragon scales that were rumored to heal any sickness and grant strange powers. They brought the rare scales home, preparing them in a stew for a few of the adults and children who had taken ill. It took a few days before the mortals recovered, but it came with some strange side effects. They started gaining weird abilities, and some of them grew scales. It didn’t take long before each mortal who consumed the stew acquired their dragon.

There are four different dragons that a dragon shifter could be: fire, earth, air, and water. Over the years, the four different elemental shifters separated. The clans had their differences, either helping one another or starting wars. A thousand years ago, mortals fearing the wild and untamed nature of the beasts created groups of Dragon Hunters. They took it upon themselves to eliminate the entire dragon race. They have nearly succeeded, but there are a few left.

In history, the two clans, Draco de Ignis and Draco de Aqua, were always at war and fighting with one another. The Draco de Terra were neutral during these times, while the Draco de Caeli hid away in the mountains.

Physical Description

Dragon shifters have two different forms. They have their human form and their dragon form. Each dragon shifter has a dragon tattoo on their body resembling their dragon, which glows either red, blue, green, or white when they shift.

Fire Shifter. Their scales are either black, grey, or red and are warm to the touch. Eyes tend to be blue, brown, or black in their dragon form.
Earth Shifter. These dragons tend to blend in with the natural world around them. Not all of these dragons have wings. The ones that do have thin, flimsy wings that look like they would easily break. Their eyes are variations of greens and browns.
Air Shifter. Their scales tend to be a mix of white, blue, and purple. Their eyes are crystal blue or grey. In human form, their hair is white.
Water Shifter. These dragons have webbed hands and feet. Their scales are different colors of blue, which help them blend into the water. They have gills on the side of their neck so they are able to breathe under the water.

Types

Draco de Ignis

These dragons all lived under one reign. Their people lived in a hierarchy system and there was a King of the Draco de Ignis. He was killed a long time ago, leaving behind a son who could take over as King if he chooses.

Draco de Terra

There were five different groups for the Draco de Terra. Each one lives in different areas like forest, rocks, mountain, plants, and flowers. These dragons tended to take the form of what they lived close to. For example, a Draco de Terra that lived in the forest would look more like a tree then a flower. The five groups got along with each other and would always help one another when needed. Before the Dragon Hunters nearly caused their extinction, there was a counsel among the five groups which would gather every few months to talk about issues and rules within their groups.

Draco de Caeli

There was only one group of the Draco de Caeli and they were only a few of them. They lived on the mountain range in the himalayas. They were a quiet group and not much of them is known.

Draco de Aqua

The Draco de Aqua were the most diplomatic of the Dragon Shifters. There were five different groups, pond, ocean, lakes, river, swamps which would have one leader that was voted in by their people. These leaders would get together to vote in new laws and ensure that their groups were working well together.

Abilities

Quasi Immortal. Technically immortal, immune to the effects of illness and aging, Dracaenae will live forever unless killed. However, they are particularly vulnerable in their dragon state to attacks by other dragons. The only thing that can pierce their scaled hide is another dragon’s tooth or claws. Long ago, the dragon hunters discovered this flaw and armed themselves accordingly, hunting them to near extinction.

Dragon Hunters

These are a group of mortals who banded together to kill the Dragon Shifters. They formed in 1189 BCE and made a vow to kill all Dragons. They believe that superior beings like dragon shifters should not exist since they are a higher being. They created a special sword made of copper which they used to kill most of the dragons but the weapons have since been lost. There are still a few dragon hunters left whose mission is still to eliminate all dragon shifters.

 === General Overview ===
-Three thousand years ago, a group of mortals stumbled across a cave. In this cave, there were rumours of dragon scales which could heal any sickness and grant strange powers. They brought the scales home, preparing them in a stew for a few of the adults and children who mysteriously got ill. It took a few days before the mortals started getting better but something strange was happening. They started gaining weird abilities and some of them grew scales. It didn’t take long before each mortal who ate the stew gained their “dragon”. There are four different dragons that a dragon shifter could be which are fire, earth, air, and water. Over the years, the four different elemental shifters separated into their clans. The clans had their differences, either helping one another or starting wars. A thousand years ago, mortals called the “Dragon Hunters” took it upon themselves to try and eliminate the race. They have come pretty close to get rid of them all but there are a few left.
