Dragon Tribe

The scaled, winged race of the Dragon World, led by the First Dragon God.

The Dragon Tribe was one of the major races of the Six-Faced World, originally native to the Dragon World. Ancient members of the race were winged humanoids covered in scales who possessed a latent power known as Dragon Aura, which could enormously strengthen their bodies. After the First Dragon God taught them how to use this power, the Dragon Tribe rose from a comparatively vulnerable species hiding from dragons to the dominant civilization of the Dragon World. It was ruled by the First Dragon God and administered in part through the Five Dragon Generals; its civilization was centered on Kayos, a city built into Dragon Roar Mountain, and eventually spread across 122 settlements throughout the Dragon World. The race was nearly annihilated when Hitogami destroyed the Dragon World, and only a very small number escaped to the Human World.
