Chapter 1
Characters:
- Human of any profession
- Dragons of any age
- Demons of any form
In the world Angenus, inhabited with many different species from pixies up to Cyclops one species wields the most powerfully magic of them all and that are the dragons. No other specie has the chance to kill a dragon who awaits the fight. But to be fair demons come a close second.
There is always a exception, one weak species able to handle much stronger creatures than them self, its name 'humans'.
Humans with their steam machines and weak magic learnt to kill the dragons. Create machines that captures various magical beings, and even made experiments to harness the magical energy from them. Using this energy in their weapons and armor to further enhance themselves.
From the dragon bones structures are built that never break down, from the dragon teeth tools are made that never become dull, from the skin protection and shield are build that never rip in front of the nature,from the blood and organs magic items are made of great power and as last from the dragons meet and fat medicine that heal and improves the strength of the one eating it.
Most dragons dispute humans for this ability of adapting and learning. Feeling that even if the hunting doesnt bring death that often to dragons it still worries them. Making the prideful creatures return to the safety of the many tribes around the world. Because the tribe is shielded with a powerfully shield, that hiddes it to the humans eyes and uninvited guest. It was believed that only together with a dragon you can enter and leave the shield, but some magical beings are able t trick the shield into letting them in.
Even so not all humans are liking the idea of killing this powerfully beings.Fearing revenge of the creatures that destroyed countries out of a impulse. Some are saying they are gods and should be worshiped, finding in the far lands temples where the dragons use humans as their slaves, till churches where dragons protects the humans. There are humans who speaks that the dragons are the root of all evil with their powers to destroy so much with their magic and should be killed, wiped from the face of earth. There are humans who are driven by curiosity towards those ancient beast and want to learn and understand them... Some wish for alliances with dragons as they believe it would give them unbelievable power.
But the dragons arent that different either they are curious towards the human world, or fearing it as root of all evil that wish their death or control over them and some say that peace is possible. The demons are on the other side beast unique and rare. Most dragons and humans barely heard of demons even less saw a demon with their own eyes. The lack of their numbers compared to dragons is what makes them often forgotten and overseen.
The demons culture is a mystery but there are gossips that they are just as stubborn and lone wolfs as dragons. Like any gossip it may or may not be true.
Dragons Appearance
Normal form is what you usually think when one say dragon.
Any dragon you can come up with is allowed, well it has to resemble a dragon in one way or another.
//examples:
Want a dragon 10m big, its ok.
Want a dragon as small as a bunny with scales and cute dragon wings, its ok.
Want a furry in water living asian shaped dragon its ok too.
etc...
//
Compact form
Is what it sound like a compact form of a dragon their second face. In lot of cases if not all the compact form is human alike, with a mistake or two that resemble their dragon form. Those mistakes are often covered with human wear.
//examples:
A dragon having a girl like appearance but has a smaller version of the horns peeking under the hair.
Or the dragons compact form has its chest covered in scales.
Or maybe the feet arent those of a human but are shaped like the dragon feet.
etc...//
This form appears after a freshly born baby dragon reaches 100 days. They transform in the compact form. Every dragon older then 100 days is able to do it.
There are great individuality in the behavior of the compact form. Some compact form ages with the dragon age, some age reversely and some have one compact form, one appearance for their whole life. While other age only a few years, their first form being for example 25 year old man, that over the life of the dragon age up to 35 and stops.
Dragons Age
Magic is a extremely important life aspect of dragons so much that they dont give a penny about the human years. They have their own way of counting age that describe how powerful of magic they have. Each dragon can sense this level naturally.
Every 10 humans years there is a ceremony The festival in these days the dragons can show off their magic in front of others and officially be recognized that they got older. Of course the aging can be very individually too.
The dragons can tell by the look at one another which age they are.
//examples
There can be 750 human year old baby
And 20 human year old adult.
Some dragons improve so fast in their magic ability that they jump over a age or two.
etc...//
The Ages
- Baby Only able to change into their compact form, doesnt show off any other magic abilities.
- Child Small magic burst, often uncontrolled magic, weak magic.
- Teen Stronger magic then children can get at times out of control, but able to do a lot more tricks and things. Time when dragons explore what can they do with their magic.
- Adults Stronger magic then teen able to do lots with their magic, nearly never lose control over it. They are able to give birth to dragon eggs
- Grandma/Grandpa High class magic, tend to teach the young ones who ask them. Help in protection of dragons and tribes. Can give birth to dragon eggs
- GrandGrandma/GrandGrandpa Miracle magics, magic that can rip up continents, cause a whole land to sunk in darkness or dry out a ocean. The most powerfully dragons, often considered to be the leader figures, can teach the young who ask them. Most time spend in the tribe as their magic powers feed the old spell that protect and hides the tribe from harms way. Cannot give birth to dragon eggs because of their magic strength, the magic overloads the egg destroying the egg before its done.
Dragon Eggs
Dragons do not have genders. Any dragon can make a egg with any other. The gender they take on when turning into the compact form, may reflect they personality, may not mean anything. The dragons do not stay pregnant. When they mate the magic of two dragons and their showing love is what creates the egg out of nothing.
The dragons can mate in both of their forms.
There is great variation in both sizes and coloration of the eggs, which depends on the magic influence of the parents. The baby doesnt have to have any magic similarities to its parents.
There is no strict time of the eggs incubation, or the needs of the egg. Each egg takes its own time to hatch and some need to be in cold, while other prefer heat, some like the water and some do not need any attention. Dragons by touch the shell of the egg can sense what does the egg needs and want.
But there is a believing in the dragons folk, which says:The longer the hatching takes the stronger the born dragon.
Some eggs hatch withing days some takes 1000 years, some appear never to hatch.
When it comes to parenting some dragons are the most dotting mothers while others prefer to leave the egg in the tribes nursery for caretaker. Neither is being judged on.
So a baby dragon may have never meet their parents, while others grow up with one or both of them.
The nursery in each tribe drifters, but most are having some underneath the earth complex in which some of the eggs needs can be meet. Obliviously if the egg needs the fresh air, sun, moon or star light it will be taken care off over the earth level. The nursery is always attracting some dragons, who take care of all the eggs. Or take care of it for some time before leaving it.
Morals
Lets call it Morals.
1. Each dragon life is the most precious and has to be protected.
2.Each dragons chose and free will is to be respected as long as it doesnt endanger a dragons life
3.Each dragon can chose how to life his life.
4.Each dragon is unique and is loved for it.
Some guidelines, often given out by the GGM/GGP
-Babies shouldnt ever leave the tribe, on their own.
-Children can only leave in the company of a teen or older.
-Teen and older are free to come in and out of the tribe as they wish.
-Humans are forbidden to be taken to the tribe (a rule that was mostly violated in the recent times)
//Examples
You see because the dragons free will is important, and there are dragons who are human obsessed or human loving, you can see in the tribe a human house while beside it a dragon sleep under his tree. Or random human object that some dragon took in the tribe. Well each object is controlled over by the oldest to make sure not a single one is a tracker or something to dis-spell the tribe protection.
Well that wouldnt stop the more traditional dragons to frown over this human things, but they respect and just nag about those.//
The Tribe
There was only one tribe at the begging of the time. The big tribe surrounded by high mountains. Times werent idle and peacefully, in opposite there was a war between dragons for the wish to rule and not be ruled. It was a just hatched dragon with great power that challenge every dragon there was and in less then 100 days from its birth he won against everyone, his magic a miracle. He changed his body to a young person, surprising the beast around, declaring that he is the oldest dragon.
He taught every dragon the respect for each other and gave them free will to live how they wished for. He shared his secrets of transformation giving ever dragon a second form, but even his magic couldnt make them perfect to his own second form. Some bits of the beast remained.
Given the free will to do what each wanted many explored the world but every ten years their would hear the voice, a soft whisper, a tug on their heart, calling them back, to their first home to celebrate life and its flow.
That tribe is the tribe where the Festival is being hold.
Each tribe has at least one grandgrandma/grandgrandpa that feed the shield their magic just by living there. This shield is like a bubble imagine the magic that hide Hogwarts for comparative. Humans would just not be able to come close on their own. At least not with out a dragon leading them in. At the time where this rp will start there are many tribes, but they all migrate for the festival over to this one. Well each dragon choose is if they will come or not.
Each tribe has a nursery where its taken care of the eggs, some dragons choose to live in the tribe some not. The tribes are pretty big and have many variation in housing. Caves trees houses, etc. In the tribe our rp will happen there is a natural arena, surrounded by 3 sides by clifs and for more info look at location guide.
The Festival
The festival is really important for the dragons. The duration of the festival varies from the time to time but it never shorter then a week and never longer then 4 weeks.
This time is when the biggest egg boom happens too. Because dragons from all around come in this time of celebration finding a partner is much more successfully.
The main part of the festival is the Aging ceremony. Each dragon that chooses comes with his momentary age group and does one of two things to be considered older.
1. Show off their magic.
2. Challenge a dragon that is a age group over them.
In 1 they have to impress, get approved by most grandgrandma/pa that are there. In second the grandgrand choose the dragon against who they will fight, but they may accept a volunteer as the opponent. The fight last till one surrenders or one is K.O. if a dragon endangers the life of the other the GG will interrupt.
Falling the Aging isnt considered too bad, its like failing a exam there is always the next time.
Magic
What sort of magic does dragon wield?
Well 90% are element based, 10% are not.
So having a for example a water manipulating dragon is common, but a necromancy dragon is rare.
Some of the dragons can wield more then one type of magic.
So a dragon wielding earth and snow can be found on occasion but a dragon wielding telekinesis and animal control is super super rare.
Most dragons just think and the magic happens some thought use poems, hums and words to help them keep their magic under control.
I will ask you guys not to just say water magic but to explain what he exactly do with the water magic, does he turn the water into balls and shot them use it as a whip, evaporate it etc.
And if you deiced to be able to create life from example light butterflies that allow you to see far away, then be aware that they will die fast as in within hours and cannot be complexes life forms.Humans are on a steam-punk level with some magic uses and included.
When dragons sneak about they will be dressed like them too, obliviously.
The place that is relevant for this rp is close to our dragons tribe, it is The Gold village that, has grown into a small city by this days. A dragon can reach it in less than 30 minutes flying, some fast flying ones can reach it even quicker.
Gold Village has a hospital, airship hangers and airport, a academy on which beside other things dragons are studied. A parliament, a house specially intended for public debates on topics that the people of the city worry about. Check the location guide.
There is a semi big market where one can find food, cloths all and everything including merchandise made from dragons body.
There are many bars who serve alcohol and even do not say a word about a dragon being in their establishment as long as he pays, if he doesnt pay well, a dead drunk dragon is a easy kill and worth a several million.
The currency are paper money. (For some feeling for the worth lets say the money is short called mon and for 100 mon you get 1 dollar.)
In the Gold Village there is 'The Hunters' guild specialized in killing dragons seeing them as beast ready to eat humans for dinner. Now the building lays in ashes.
And just because, we have on the other street side a small church housing a exiled powerful dragon. Who tends to be more interested in doing what he wants then bothering himself with the hunters.
Demons are rare beings. There is little known about the demon society if there is any.
Most belies about demons comes from rumors. Most saying the demons arent native to this world, while others just say not native to the known countries.
So because of the lack of information feel free to make any character and give them what ever you see fit~ Have fun creating the demons lifes.

A bar in a darker alleyway. It offers its paying guest the private atmosphere of their own rooms, beside the usually bar style.
Large scar going from his right eye to the top of his right wing all the way across it. His scales are colorful, depending on how one looks at him, the scales can change from red, blue and purple. He's quite large, his body as long as 400 feet and being as tall as 500 feet. Two long dark colored curved horns curving slightly upwards. Has fur along his head, back and tail with the frills.
Large scar going from his right eye down to his hip. Usually wears a light gray scarf to help cover his face. He has bright glowing purple eyes, and scales over his shoulders and chest. Stands around 5'8. Has long red hair going down to the middle of his back, though it's pulled in a neat low ponytail while the rest of his hair is messy and a little spikey, covering his oddly purple eyes usually.
Damia is two headed dragon with a body like a snake and large set of wings just two feet below the split between the heads. She is a long dragon, about 30 feet long, but she isn't the biggest of dragons.
She stands around 5'0 and her scales are on her forehead, which she covers with her head band.
Compact looks:
Stands around 6'8. He has red eyes and horns curving from his head and scales along his ears. Almost always wears a black hooded cloak.
Personality: A pretty odd elder dragon and a powerful one at that, he pretty much does what he wants. Seeming neutral when it comes to humans and dragons. He still attends the dragon festival, and is known to be a bit mysterious if not a bit mischievous. He seems to play by his own rules, messing with others in his own way. He gives information of both dragons and humans but not enough to be threatening to either race, seeming to do both harm and good for both. He loves eating humans, and used to burn down villages in his younger years, but now he seems content relaxing a bit more and getting free meals from Dragon Churches. Enjoys playing with riddles and tricks and messing with younger dragons, and he can come off as mean and cruel sometimes, until he actually helps out which can often confuse others of his intentions. Can sometimes show a strange kindness to others. He's often playful and teasing. Although he seems to keep a cool head most of the time, he does tend to be possessive in what he considers his and youngsters seeming not to realize that fact.
Background: Draken's hatching took around 1,000 years, and he aged to adult at fifty. In his younger years of teens and as a adult, he often went and burned down villages, gulping down humans as he went. Humans being his favored taste. His attacks calmed though and soon he stopped at the age of 100 when he turned into a grandfather. The humans of the Dragon Church made a deal with him, serving as one of their gods and in return he would receive peace and meals. Even those of humans that were meant to be executed. He agreed, deciding relaxing would be good for him. The dragon hunters took interest of a dragon so nearby, but could not use the old dragon for their needs, being protected by the church. So instead they wished for his assistance against his own kind. Draken sort of agreed, telling what sorts of dragons they caught were and the rules, but never revealed the location of any dragon homes or the dragon tribe, frustrating the dragon hunters with his little of help. Though when a dragon does attack where the town he is currently residing in, he will go out and protect it, so the hunters have little to complain about. In turn though, Draken attends the festivals and reveals some information he has on humans to his own kind, but also not revealing too much. Seeming to find this almost a amusing game. Or simply another test for those he meets. Who can say?
He has a few hatchlings in his years, one of them being Damia.
A rather small dragon in comparison to other adults, Syrilth stands at 50ft, with black scales below the white fur. Syrilth has a pair of large, black scaled wings, the top part having additional white fur.
The compact takes the form of a 16 year old female human at 5.3ft, and it ages quite slowly. The compact also has black scales from her shoulders down to the elbows, which Syrilth usually covers with long sleeves.
Alternative looks: Has none yet.
Background: He was born in a place far away, to parents who abandoned their offspring. His siblings were either eaten or killed within the first couple of days, for only the strong survived. By chance he was set upon by the hunters not a week old, yet already as large as a big dog. They captured him, as he was not yet dangerous enough to pose a threat to challenge their safety. Abraxas soon learned the cruelness of the humans as they frequently lashed out at their captives, deeming them inferior, lower then dragons. He wondered what a dragon was, and if it could be eaten with one gulp.
Months later, and now as large as a man they arrived at the prison in the darkness of night. The journey itself was harsh and his cage was covered with a black cloth to hide him from the sun and prying eyes. Every time he tried to escape his confinement, he found that the bars burned his skin at the lightest touch but it didn't stop him from trying. Days became weeks, weeks turned into months and the passing of time blurred into years. Throughout those years he grew into a formidable demon, the size of an upright grizzly bear, looking down upon the guards always. His brute strength made him deemed dangerous, and instead of moving him to a different cell, they built a larger, more durable one around the old. That was until his metamorphism began around the age of 25.
It would last for another 25 years, changing his body slightly, making him become infused with dark magic. This magic was of flame and shadow, and deadly to those that would incur his wrath. The shadow was about him at all times, and the flame he could call upon at will. It engulfed him, wrapping around his body like a blanket, free flowing. It was dark and it suited him for upon his awakening, he found things in ruins, the prison that once contained him in flames. He broke free from his old confinement and clawed his way up to the surface. The light blinded his glowing blue eyes and when they adjusted he saw a strange place, full of rock towers and thick layers of fog. He walked away from the rubble, quickly coming to a street full of humans and their devices. His revenge had begun, yet in this world he did not know, there were creatures more dangerous then humans..
Did they escape the hunters prison?: Yes
