The Firstborn represents exactly this, he is the first dragon to have been born to the world in its earliest years while other races were still on the horizon. Said to have been raised by the Worldforger himself, with rumors that he is the offspring of the normally warring Bahamut and Tiamat as a commitment to their ceasefire that the Worldforger brought about in the realms of Belthuran. Regardless of his true origin, he remains the first of the world, and through him upbringing he was taught the ways of the dragons and their role. Once his adoptive father left Kindralth’Shaletal in charge of Belthuran the Firstborn began to create more dragons the original aspects to which he also taught what he learned and from these aspects, the dragons were formed. Each dragon born into the world would have their eggs marked by one of the symbols of the aspects and gain knowledge and skills associated with those aspects. The moon named after him is the one that applies the Birth signs and is said to be the single most powerful source of Arcane energies someone can observe which is why it is fully crystalline. He was the one who gave the first Tyrannus the crown forged by the Worldforger in the time when the world was about to perish, the crown is said to only accept those who follow the teachings of the Firstborn on being honorable and powerful, and the way that the dragons rule themselves.
The Firstborn is depicted as a dragon of crystal scales that glows with arcane energies from the inside out. Aside from this very generic description the Firstborn has not taken his physical form on the material plane in so long only the oldest of libraries would have a record of his form. In place of his true physical form, most depict him as the crystal moon Kindralth. Within the Draz Tyran his true form is venerated in massive diamond mosaics in only the most important of places, often on the altar where the eggs of the dragons are rested to get their birth sign.
Other races revere the crystal moon as the providence of what they refer to as the Lunar King said to be the source of all ‘right to rule’ bloodlines and personalities. Essentially that all kings, queens, emperors, and so on come directly blessed or descendent from the Lunar King.

Holidays
The Firstborn’s holy day is on the first of the year by the dragon calendar, the first day of spring. This is known as the Renewal where the Keepers of the empire summon forth the echoes of those who had come before so new dragons can meet the memories of the old ones to learn from and of their elders now passed.
