While most dragons are considered mortal, despite their lifespans, there are some dragons that are considered deities and worshipped by certain groups. These dragons are each the original dragon of their type, either the direct child of Aleyara and another deity or the child of one of Aleyara's children and another deity. Aleyara is the most powerful of these, considered an intermediate celestial, while the rest of her divine children and grandchildren are quasi-deities.
