In all of history, relations between dragons and humans have always a servant-master relationship. Sometimes dragons would rule over humans and demand tribute, sometimes humans would enslave dragons and use them in times of war. No matter who was the master or servant, it was always an unequal one.
In all my studies and travels, I have not been able to find out why these two races have wanted this particular rivalry. It is true that dragons also raid and enslave dwarves, elves, and other races and humans to do the same, but it is far more intense the rivalry between humans and dragons.
-Hefesin of Kayon
(Tarran)
That roar meant something…You didn't know what, but you weren't very keen on exploring any further to find out. You sit down. Your brother Alterix is not as timid however and runs off to find the source of the roar. With him goes the light. You are in total darkness.
Your to fearful of what lies in the dark to get up, but you know that if you stay here too long you might die…You decide to wait a bit longer before moving on. As time elapses, you hear steps coming your way…Perhaps it is death coming for you? Some kind of creature with an empty belly? Fortunately, it turns out to be mother with Alterix and another dragon hatchling with them. The darkness is gone with the light of Alterix's stone.
"Child? Ah here you are….I was worried something had happened to you. This is why you shouldn't wander off in these tunnels."
She nuzzles you, and then tells you to follow her. As you walk along, you find out that the red dragon is your sibling, apparently named Koraeleth. He has wounds and drying blood all over him. During the trip, you stay next to your brother and eventually reach a room with a carcass. You eat up.
+5 strength
+5 toughness.
Soon after, you arrive at a large chamber filled with shiny stuff as well with other dragons and some kind of creature. Perhaps they are all your siblings (except the thing of course)?
Alterix (Aklyon)
The roar sounded…dragonish. With the little knowledge you have, you deduce that it must be mother. You scamper towards what you believe to be the source of the roar. You go through the tunnels, with lightstone in your mouth. Through the twists and turns and through the darkness. You often hear some kind of noise, obviously coming from a creature of some sort, but you ignore them and continue looking for your mother.
Eventually, you bump head-on into a red drake. Not exactly who you were expecting. The dragon snarls for a few seconds and then, ignores you. You see mother right behind him.
"Where is your brother Alterix!? Don't tell me you left him alone! He was your twin, and twins don't leave each other's sides!"
She was maddened; not wishing to anger your mother any further, you head back through the tunnels with the red drake (who you learn to be your brother) and mother, and eventually you reach the place where you left Acheran. Seems he dug into the ground a bit.
Mother spoke to him and then turns away and orders everyone to follow her. Eventually you reach a chamber in the tunnels with many treasures as well as other dragons (who you believe to be siblings) and a…thing.
Koraeleth (Yoink)
You leave with mother to get food. Hungry you were. Wonder what it would taste like? Your mother leads you off through the tunnels and reach a small chamber. There is a carcass in the middle.
"Eat up, then we'll look for your brothers."
Brothers? More of them? Well perhaps you could show to them your dominance.
+5 strength for first meal
+5 toughness for first meal
After you eat, you are led by mother through the tunnels. Eventually, you bump into another dragon. He has a strange stone in his mouth, emanating light.
Mother talks to him and asks where his twin is. He goes off and leads mother to him, you of course follow. Eventually, you find him in the darkness just huddling by himself. WIth him found, you head back through the tunnels and make a detour into the chamber with the carcass, for your brother to eat. Eventually you arrive back at the main chamber.
Trait gained- Weakness. Your wounds have not completely left you. You are permanently injured with a -3 strength.
Gravnoth( Haika)
The red dragon got to go with mother! Weren't you the greatest dragon here? Perhaps that's why she left you here, to watch over your kin and the…thing the red dragon brought. With him gone, the thing was completely unguarded. A toy! (5+1) You bite the thing's leg. The thing didn't like that at all, actually he screamed at you. He actually deigned to touch your head and pushed you off. His leg was bloody now, and he was trying to limp off into a treasure pile.
As you were watching the thing, the stupid black dragon jumped on you.

Gravnoth 2+1=4
Attack by Azkul
Azkul, already a strong and agile dragon, strikes again and again with his claws, slashing at his green brother.
Azkul 3+2=5
Gravnoth 1+1=2
Brother Gravnoth is too confused and dazed to understand that Azkul is slashing at his scales, trying to draw out his blood.
Claws:: 3d3
2+1+2=5
Azkul 72/72 hp
Gravnoth 41/63 hp
Round 2
Retaliation by Gravnoth
Gravnoth tries to release himself from Azkul's hold. (5+1) He does so, actually throwing off and actually injuring his skin.
Throw: 1d4=3
Azkul 69/72 hp
Gravnoth 41/63 hp
Attack by Gravnoth
Gravnoth wastes no time and try to tear Azkul's neck.
Gravnoth 4+1=5
Azkul 6+2=8 (Dodge, unblockable counter, and double attack)
Azkul however recovers from the throw, gets out of the way, and jumps onto your back. He bites in to your neck as well as clawing into your backside.
Claws: 3d3=3
Bite: 1d12=9
Total= 12
Gravnoth 29/63 hp
Azkul 69/72 hp
Azkul is barely wounded, Gravnoth on the other hand, has been bloodied once again, and open wounds. Knowing Gravnoth, the fight would have gone on until one of them died or surrendered (unlikely to happen), but fortunately the chromatic dragons stepped in and forced them to stop. Azkul while still lusting for blood, was happy enough knowing he had taken superiority. Gravnoth however…well at least he had learned something.
Trait gained- Hard Fighter. You have fought your first real fight. While still simple play by dragon terms, it has taught you a valuable lesson in combat. +1 to initiative rolls.
Trait gained- Severely Wounded. -12 to strength and agility until age-up. -2 to strength and agility rolls as well.
You go to lick your wounds. Kefka stays by you, guarding you. It shames you to believe that you need protection, but your in too much pain to even try to protest.
Soon enough, mother comes back with Koraeleth and two other dragons.
Azkul (Azkul)
Azkul watched his mother and brother leave. His siblings were still here as well as the thing. He ignored it and decided to watch. The chromatic brothers were playing a game with some of the shiny stuff, while Gravnoth was doing something to the thing. Biting it. The thing didn't like that and pushed his brother off. Why did Gravnoth think he could just bite the thing? He hadn't been in this world for long, but he believed mother wouldn't have approved of that. Besides that, Gravnoth thought himself superior, the haughty fool.
With your anger ready, you readied your strike and pounced. (2+2) You pounce on brother Gravnoth, taking him by surprise. (2+2) You bite him as he is confused, dealing 4 damage
(Dodge, unblockable counter, and double attack)

Trait gained- Hard Fighter. You have fought your first real fight. While still simple play by dragon terms, it has taught you a valuable lesson in combat. +1 to initiative rolls.
With victory still in your mind, you decide that you get to stay by the thing. Your not going to bite it of course, but you get the right to stay by it. Jaxar watches you with wary.
Soon enough, mother comes back with Koraeleth and two other dragons.
Kefka & Jaxar (Firelordsky & Spaghetti7)
With mother and Koraeleth gone, you two decide to play a game. You both try to delve into the treasure piles, show it to each other, then place them back within the piles. Then you look for each other's treasure. Its all good fun, then you hear the thing scream. Seems that Gravnoth bit it. Gravnoth was thrown off, and as soon as that happened, Azkul pounced and attacked him. He was not merciful at all. After seeing Gravnoth get beaten (he deserved it, but still) both of you decide to separate them. Fortunately, both of you are able to.
Soon enough, mother comes back with Koraeleth and two other dragons.
The ThirsterConchobar (Sinpwn)
You once again ask mother about magic, this time showing her your new toy. (5+1)
"Ah, my son it seems you have felt magic, Magic lets you do many special things and even more non-special things. It can take ages to master, some people can't even use it. But you my son seem able to. That thing you have was used to store magic."
