Brass Dragonborn

Being closer to the top of the Relien khast system, Brass Dragonborn enjoy many of the benefits of high life. Their status allows them, in the gilded crown, to be diplomats, priests, merchants, and other higher forms of societal life. Brass Dragonborn have an affinity with fire, similar to their dragon counter parts, allowing them to comfortably live within the hotter climates that make up most of Kare’Gora. They are thought to have originated from Relac’s words, similar to brass dragons, though many different stories exist regarding their origins.

Brass Dragonborn often find themselves in positions that allow their words to carry weight, allowing their natural charisma to shine through. Whether that means a court bard, a prestigious diplomat, or a local merchant, brass Dragonborn turn their inherent skills to their advantage. Being the second lowest in terms of population, brass Dragonborn often find themselves out numbered when traveling the roads of Kare. Though this typicaly does not register at all to a brass dragonborn, how is most eager to talk to any passerby that happens to be near.
