The Flame Bearers of La'rai
A cult built around worship of the god La'rai, Harbringer of The Great Fire.
Mythology & Lore
La'rai rose from the mount of beginning, where flames first began.
His flaming breath rose the bones of old, awakening his progeny, the dragon lords.
And with his roaring breath he command them to rule the world beyond the ash.
Among the first to rise were the greatest of the dragon lords, the pale and treacherous Sy'verr lord of shadows and ice. The enigmatic Ru'bei, goddess of the hunt. The shifting Al'fre, the two-bodied guardian of death and souls. Ki'qires of the Twilight, and last but not least Zymo'dia Lord of storms.
In turn, their children became the dragon lords, blessed rulers of dragonkind. And from the rocks they shaped the Kobolds, to serve their will upon the land.

Priesthood
Some kobold are chosen as "Flame Bearers" by their lords. These kobold hold the religious rites, and care for the their lords eggs in their absence.
