Dragon

Ravnican Dragons, in truly ancient times, were immense and god-like, warring and devastating. With dragons deemed too dangerous to exist liek the Hellkite Tyrant, the Guildpact was signed in part to rid the world of such beings; around the Decamillennial nearly all of them had been killed. The most significant exception being Niv-Mizzet, the parun of the Izzet League, who had led the hunt against the others of his kind to eliminate potential rivals. There are dragons still free, some real and threatening like the Utvara Hellkites and some lesser ones who are either hunted or trained as pets by the Rakdos. Niv-Mizzet has many cloned dragon underlings.
