The dragon god of creation who mixes form and function said to be the original creator of draconic artifice and is the power behind the many great works of the Old Draz Tyran. He demands that all things have a harmony of form and function that only then can something become truly special. Mass production of lesser quality works is antithetical to him and his followers always strive to create true works of art, while rare to find a true master of this mindset their works are beyond compare Firaxan’Draedoren appears as a massive adamantine (shiny black) scaled dragon with magma glowing between his scales. His appearances are rare, but he is well depicted by his followers as they are master craftsmen and women who on their magnum opus like to make the work in the image of their patron. The Dwarves have their own version of Firaxan’Draedoren as they refuse to worship a dragon, but at the end of the day, the power still comes from the Forgefather. In the Dwarven lands, it is a crime to teach that the Frogefather is a dragon, to them, he is a Dwarf with an adamantine beard and molten skin.
