Dragon

Millennia past, the continent of Ilarium was ruled by rampaging tribes of giants and terrorised by dragons. The other races moved between these, trying to build their own civilizations and avoid becoming enslaved. The dragons were not great in number but those who existed were divided roughly along two lines, the chromatics and the metallics. The metallic dragons fought amongst themselves for slaves and wealth, as well as with the chromatics. The chromatics left each other to their own designs, occasionally allying to fight off metallics. The giants and dragons also fought constantly, decimating any who got between them.
Laren Vizdenial gathered the strongest magicians from amongst his race. He was the strongest of the group which came to be called The Nine. The Nine wielded powerful artefacts which provided them incredible strength and abilities through which they ended the tyranny of the Giants and Dragons.

Features

Silver dragons are the second most powerful of the metallic dragons, and are true friends to all. The silver dragon enjoys the company of humans and elves so much that it will often take the form of a human or elf and live among them for the majority of its life. It should be noted that silvers, like all dragons, believe themselves the most superior creatures in the world. However, apart from the ability to fly, which they enjoy greatly, they tend to prefer the physical forms of humanoids for everyday life.
A silver dragon's lair is typically found within an icy mountain, with the main entrance only accessible by air. The lair itself is similar to the gold dragon's in its sophistication and design, although the silver dragon's lair tends to be far less intricate. A typical lair will contain a main entertaining area, a storage room, a vault, a sleeping chamber, study, library, shrine, and two clinic rooms where the dragon can offer help and protection to those who need it. The lair will also have a concealed back entrance for use in emergencies.
