Silver Dragon
Silver Dragons were sleek and graceful creatures, their metallic scales reflecting the light like polished steel, giving them an almost ethereal glow in flight. They were highly intelligent, with a deceptive charm that masked their ambition and manipulative nature. Unlike some of their more brutal kin, Silver Dragons preferred subtle control, often positioning themselves as benefactors or protectors, while quietly bending people to their will. When they shapeshifted, they favored forms of nobility or wise counselors, often appearing as silver-haired aristocrats or influential figures in society. These forms allowed them to sway political or social matters without drawing suspicion to their true nature.
Silver Dragons made their homes in high, mountainous regions, often near the peaks where snow and clouds obscured their lairs. They were known to build their homes within ancient castles, perched atop cliffs or hidden within icy caverns. It was said that the land around their lairs grew colder, even in regions where such conditions were unnatural. Locals believed that storms gathered more frequently, and the wind carried an eerie, unnatural chill, as if the very air responded to the dragon's manipulative presence. Strange disappearances were often attributed to the influence of a Silver Dragon, as those who wandered too close sometimes never returned.
The followers of Silver Dragons were often those who sought power through diplomacy, intellect, or manipulation. They were politicians, scholars, or social elites who believed they could advance their status by aligning with the dragon’s perceived wisdom and influence. Some were enslaved, though not through brute force but through cunning contracts, promises of power, or arcane bindings that tied them to the dragon's will. These followers were often unaware of the dragon’s true intent, believing they were partners in a grand scheme. In truth, they were pawns, manipulated to serve the dragon’s hidden agenda while believing themselves to be in control.
