Dragonfolk - Thought to be the descendants of dragons that were transformed into human form and lizardfolk, the dragonfolk seek to emulate their noble metallic ancestors by protecting others. Though some sadly fall prey to the darker impulses of the chromatic dragons.

Physical Description - Dragonfolk tend to be relatively tall yet slender, with large wings and thin reptilian tails. Most tend to have blunted claws and short muzzles. Dragonfolk lack hair, being non-mammalian, and have dark eyes. Their scales lay flat and appear to be thinner than they actually are, and come in as many colors as their dragonic ancestors.

Society - Dragonfolk cities tend to be built fairly far from other races, mostly due to their preference for building into cliffsides. They are ruled by a monarchy with each "kingdom" holding several Dragonfolk cities in various regions. As Dragonfolk are descended from dragons, they carry the same elemental affinity, and as such most cities tend to have a population that runs to a single element more than others. Magic is held in high regard and almost all children are taught to master the art. Though of course, not all are able.

Religion and Alignment - As probably expected, the majority of Dragonfolk worship either Apsu or Dahak and are Good and Evil respectively. It is uncommon to find Dragonfolk that worship other gods, though not impossible.
