History of the Dragons

For unknown reasons, dragons across the world begin dying in mass quantities, devastating populations globally and lead to the extinction of many individual species. All species that did not possess some form of immortality died out, while survivors that did entered retreated to essence form and hibernated. Records from this era are sparse and mainly speculation as to what occurred, but it is mainly agreed upon that a plague paired with changing gobal climates may have been the cause.

Neia Lun De Draco rampages across Italy and the Mediterranean, capturing humans by the hundreds and killing them by the thousands as a show of force. Most humans she captures are kept alive initially, to be fed to her growing offspring at a later date. Among those captured is Lorenzo McConnell. Italy and other surrounding nations are devastated by the destruction.

Among the devastation caused by the War of the Flights, many smaller flights across eastern Europe merged as a powerful stag named Herkirt courted and claimed their leaders for her harem. Following their ewes, this group became the foundation of the modern Kindal Dragonflight.

The eruption of the Yellowstone Supervolcano, which started both a mass extinction and a war between dragons, humans, and the omnia.

Due to many areas having become uninhabitable to humans, large swaths of Russia, Canada, and the former United States, now split into Laramidia and Appalachia, fall under the influence of the minor gods. The region claimed by them begins to get called the Land of Gods.

Following the War of Black Ash and being wounded by Lorenzo McConnell, Neia relocates her entire flight due to pressure from humans, omnia, gods and rival dragons alike to the Arctic, far out of reach of her enemies. Following this, all major activity from the Lunar Dragonflight on the world stage ceases.   The Lunar Flight begins building a massive compound in the ice as their new base of operations and changes their main focus from warfare to research quietly, and begins to put out propaganda against the omnia.

The Bangladesh Ethics of War Commission, an international organization overseeing the trials and laws surrounding war and warfare known for investigating and conducting trials for war crimes, passed a vote to outlaw the use of dragonfire in combat against humanoids. All further uses of dragonfire against humanoids would be tried as a war crime, due to its incredibly devastating effects. Although many flights were furious with the change in law, citing favor to mortals, the law was enacted by many members of notable flights themselves.

In an attempt to put a stop to the war before it can truly begin, Pivon attacks Neia and Aien alone several times, sustaining massive injury. In a final conflict, Pivon manages to slay Aien, but is too weakened to defend himself from Neia's counterattack and is killed as well.   Pivon's last act is to grant the omnia their draconic forms, to hopefully sway the war in their favor.
