The Drake Wardens

You hear it first, the beating of wings, then you see it, the glint of gold on the sun and only then do you feel it, the wrath of fire.

• A Drake bards verse on the Drake Wardens.

The Drake Wardens are the primary fighting faction found in the barony of The Drake who were created a decade ago by the Kaechaek hero Solaire Ardaith.

The group are a small but elite fighting unit that were trained by Solaire to bond with and ride dragons for combat purposes. Though they exclusively ride gold dragons matching Solaire's due to Solaire's being the original breeder of these creatures, offering them uniquely talented genetics.
Drake Wardens wield golden bladed dual scimitars and take on some draconic aspects, leading many to accuse them of making warlock pacts with Solaire Ardaith... though only a fool would accuse them openly of this and only the strongest would live to tell the tale.
This group are responsible for quelling any threats in The Drake.

Structure

The group have a very simple structure due to them having a maximum of 20 members at any one time. They take commands from Izenrae Nicher who alone answers to Solaire Ardaith.
