Dragonborn

The children of Io, the Dragonborn were the first race upon the soil of Duenis.

History of the Dragonborn
 The Dragonborn were created by Io as the first intelligent race of Duenis, Io doted on his children and taught them the importance of honour and civilisation. The Dragon founded the first empire which spread far and wide, creating many great cities and achieved much.

 All was not well in the world and the Elementals were affronted by Io's creation and Declared war on the Gods. This was the outbreak of the Dawn War. As the Gods and Elementals fought the dragonborn cities fell to the destructive power of the fallout. When Io was killed by Erek-Hus an Elemental known as the King of Terror the God's Bahamut and Tiamat rose from the two sundered halves. Eventually the God's beat the Elementals into submission but the damage to the Dragonborn empire was devastating.

 The few bastions of Dragonborn left were devastated by the death of Io and were unsure of the two new God's his death had created. The now ruined and abandoned cities where later used by the new races of the Godling Empires as foundations for them to build on. Many an ancient catacombs has the script of the lost Iokharic Empire.

Dragonborn of the current age
 The Dragonborn of the current age are a race trying to live up to the Ideals of a dead god. They still uphold the importance of honour that Io taught them but the destruction of their empire is still a wound they deeply feel. The Dragonborn tend to favour the teachings of Bahamut as their new Devine leader but there is a growing trend to worship Tiamat and take back their lost cities and re-forge the empire that was once theirs.

 There is a base resentment for the other races that they see as usurping the Dragonborn's place as the eminent race. Most Dragonborn suppress this feeling with a grudging respect of what the other races have achieved, but there are always some whose hatred runs close to the surface.
