Brass Dragonkin

Descendants of Brass Dragons

A large group gathers around a booming voice that is singing over the delicate music of a lyre. As the ballad continues, speaking of heroes and Dragons, rising kingdoms and falling empires, the crowd continues to grow until the street is closed to passersby. Everyone stops to hear the tale sung by the Bard of shining scales, his natural charisma and excitement keeping people there for the show. When his voice finally dies down, the crowd erupts in cheers, coins of Gold and Silver showering him as the people show their love for the Dragonkin.
Brass Dragonkin are the descendants of one of the Elder Races and a Brass Dragon. They have incredible charisma and the talkative nature of the Brass Dragons, drawing people to them through their words and actions.

Wherever they go, Brass Dragonkin frequently find themselves at the center of someone's attention.
Above all, these people believe in service. The Council of Metallic Dragons has proven that they can make a difference, no matter how small, no matter where. Metallic Dragonkin follow in the footsteps of their ancestors, each in a different way. Brass Dragonkin speak, using their words in a myriad of ways, as entertainers, mediators, policymakers, and citizens of the societies in which they live. Much like the Halflings, these people find their purpose in being seen and heard, something that allows them to make great change.
