Greater Dragons
The Greater Dragons played a critical role in the War of Humanity by bearing the forces of the Aldar to rescue the Gods from destruction at Nishnatoba. A noble race and unlike their lesser dragon cousins, Greater Dragons are able to cleave time-space to reach their misty, mountainous home of the Parthren Gare, created for them as their own plane of existence at the end of the Chaos Wars. Other normal mortals are unable to travel to this plane, as they are physically incapable of travelling through the fabric of reality by piercing the veil as Greater Dragons do.
The spirit of the red, black, silver, gold, blue, or green Greater Dragon is gifted to adventurers upon reaching the 99th circle of experience by Ashaxei, the white dragon of the Aldar dragonmaster Han-Tolneth. This level of power is necessary to sustain the status since the spirit is lost upon falling below the 99th level.
Aringar Claros was the first mortal to attain dragonhood. There are currently around 30 dragons in Achaea.
