Origins
Created in order to fill the ranks of the dragonarmies of the Dark Queen Takhisis the generals of the dragonarmies generally used the draconians as shock troops. They are not natural creatures of Krynn. They were created from the eggs of Chromatic dragons using dark magic called the corruption ritual. These rituals were carried out by Dracart, a wizard of the Black Robes, WyrIlish, a priest of Takhisis, and Harkiel, a dark-hearted red dragon. One egg yeilded doznes of young draconians. depending on the color of the dragon egg the draconina can be one of 5 types. Aurak, Baaz, Bozak, Kapak and Sivak.
Subspecies
Aurak
The rarest of all draconians,[1] they were hatched from golden dragon eggs. Auraks are the only draconians without wings standing 7 feet tall. They are the most intelligence, cunning ans fiercest of all draconian subspecies. Auraks rely on their magical powers rather than fight with melee weapons. Like mages in human armies Auraks stay further back in the line giving support to the ground troops by hurling deadly spells at their enemies. Auraks are more accustomed to infiltration and covert missions. When slain Auraks explode injuring anyone nearby. They are the least loyal to Queen Takhisis of all the types of draconians; and truly only fight in the dragonarmies to serve their owns purpose. They only give a begrudging respect for giving them life and magic.[2] Many auraks are waiting for the perfect opportunity to defect from the dragonarmies to pursue their own obsessions with magic and power.[2]
Baaz
Smallest of the draconians, and hatched from brass dragon eggs they are used as ground troops in the dragonarmies forces. They are often abused and treated as slaves by others because they are the weakest of all draconians. Being only between 5 and 6 feet tall they are able to work in disguise in order to surprise the enemy and attack in surprise. With small wings Baaz are about to flap their wings allowing them to run very fast intimidating their enemies.
Bozak
- Bozak draconians were created from the eggs of bronze dragons. Most are well known for their leadership and understnding of warfare. They are also gifted with magic. While bozaks are not as gifted as their aurak cousins, their arcane mastery is still quite formidable. As with most other most other draconians, bozaks are not capable of true flight and can only glide with their huge wings. A bozaks' bones will explode after death killing anyone near it. The most famous bozak is Kang.
Kapak
Sivak
Sivak draconians are unique among their race in that they are capable of true flight. Due to this upside they are often employed by by their commanders as scouts. Sivaks were created from the eggs of silver dragons. It is also said that they are they largest and most fierce of all draconians. When they die these creatures mimic the shape of whoever killed them. Worthy sivaks include Rag and Slith.
Training
From birth draconians are taught the the world is cruel and human most of all. they are are forced to fight for the scraps of rotten meat that their human caretakers throw to them.[2] That insured that the strongest survived. By the the time they were ready to join the dragonarimes they had little regard for human life. On the other hand they are taught to revere dragons.
