+Dragonborn are the half-breed offspring of True Dragons and Humanoids. Their very presence holds an air of sandal and allure if not for their generally intimidating appearance. Despite their origins Dragonborn in Felwind are known for being found all over the land, Often banding together in small social groups within settlements, especially post Ashlem-war when they were //Outlawed// \\
+Much like their True Dragon heritage the color of their scales often betrays thier personality. There is some debate weather the could of scales affects the personality or vice versa. It is true that a Dragonborn's Personality affects the sheen and colour of their scales. Its often recorded of Dragonborn going through a joys time or traumatic time having their scales shift to match their altered perception on life. \\
+During the //Outlawed// period the number of classified 'Chromatic' Dragonborn skyrocketed.
+A Newer discovery in Felwind has added a new classification of Sub-Species, Being Gemstone Dragonborn, A few hundred years after the first documentation of True Gemstone Dragons. These Dragonborn are far harder to pinpoint their personality based on the colour of their scales but a common theme is most are rather reserved and scholarly.
+**Dragonborn**  \\
+Dragonborn appear as humanoid Dragons as their heritage dictates. They are often very tall and broad with a strong physical presence. Chromatic Dragonborn, Both Male and Female are commonly picture perfect warriors. With their presence alone able to scare off weaker willed soldiers. While Metallic Dragonborn have far more elegance in appearance and stature. Its not uncommon to find Metallic Dragonborn working as exotic partners in pleasure houses. \\
+Their wide variety of colours, horns, patterns and other features is only matched by the wide array of occupations they can be found in. Warriors, Mages, Librarians, Teachers, smiths, Scholars, Laborers, The aforementioned Sex workers, Adventurers, Mercenaries, Soldiers, Anything and everything its not uncommon to find at least one Dragonborn in the field.
+Dragonborn are more common than you realize in Felwind, Mostly in //Mor-Thir//. Theories say that its due to the large amount of True Dragons that call //Mor-Thir// home. True Dragons often walk among society as mortals and find curiosity in mortal life, Especially metallic Dragons. This Curiosity often leads to some form of lust and very rarely love. Part of this high population is the True Dragon's mortal enemies //Jotunbrud// (Giants) mostly vanished from Felwind's lands.\\
+Outside of //Mor-Thir// Dragonborn's population is far more inline with other major species such as Dwarves and Tabaxi. Outside of //Felwind//, Dragonborn can be scarcely found in the elemental plains.
+**Covania's History** \\
+the nation of Covania found in //Mor-Thir// despises all Dragon kind and their Kin, Even after the alteration of the outlawed Races its still very dangerous for Dragonborn to wander around Covania's cities carefree. The best you can hope for is verbal abuse and rotten fruit thrown, The worst a public hanging or forced into slavery, Sometimes even cut up and sold off as fine leather and exotic meats in more extream communities.
+**Where are the Tails?** \\
+Despite the heavily debated topic it is more common for Dragonborn to in fact not have tails. Some see it as a missed opportunity of divine design while others see it as a much more convenient situation. \\
+However there are Dragonborn in //Felwind// that not only have tails but wings also. Simply a roll of the dice on genetics when they are concieved. There is no specific science to it.

+======Dragonborn Sub Species======

+<WRAP half column>
+=====Chromatic Dragonborn=====
+{{ :culture:dragonborn_chromatic.jpg?230 |}}
+Chromatic Dragonborn are those of Chromatic Heritage, Commonly know as the Evil Dragons descended from //Queen Tiamat//. Though their scales reflect that Chromatic bloodline they are not so evil as their relatives. \\
+While it is true that Chromatic Dragonborn tend to be far more serious and physically intimidating than other species it would be unwise to label them all as ruthless and evil as their true blood relatives. \\
+You will often find these people as warriors, Commanders or likewise strong capable adventurers. Being naturally far taller and stronger than the Metallic and Gemstone brethren they often have a strong sense of pride and sense of superiority over others. You are just as likely to find a Chromatic Dragonborn as general in a military as you would as a crime boss in the underworld.

+<WRAP half column>
+=====Metallic Dragonborn=====
+{{ :culture:dragonborn_metalic.jpg?200 |}}
+These Dragonborn are born of Metalic Dragon heritage, descended from  //Bahamut// the God of Dragons. Metallic dragons often find themselves in prestigious and looked up to in their position in life, fighting for justice and peace. However you will also find those less inclined to combat working in care and hospitality, aiding whoever however they can.

+=====Gemstone Dragonborn=====
+{{ :culture:dragonborn_gemstone.jpg?230 |}}
+With the discovery of Gemstone Dragons it wouldn't be long after that the first Gemstone Dragonborn were found. Being somewhere in-between Chromatic and Metallic Dragonborn in stature their skin is partially covered in naturally growing crystal scales. Its unknown what causes this strange growths but the hypothesis is their aptitude for high arcane environments and diet. They are highly attuned with Psionic powers, A rare power only wielded by select few creatures.

+=====Floral Dragonborn=====
+{{ :culture:dragonborn_floral.jpg?180 |}}
+<sup>Art from Floral Dragons</sup>
+Floral Dragon-Born are very rare in Felwind. they appear as most other dragon born however they often lack scales. Horns are made from tough roots, skin can resemble or even be made bark, plant or fruit flesh. But don't be fooled their hides are just as tough as any of there kin. \\ Floral Dragon-Born will often be covered in a specific kind of flower and their colours will also match the flower. perhaps manes of leaves of flowers. Like their kin, Floral Dragon-Born are subdivided into various kinds of flowers known as their //Floral Legacy// which is divided into 6 main groups for simplicity. These groups will define their natural abilities and resistances much like the colours of Chromatic or metallic dragon-Born.

+=====Dragon Knight=====
+{{ https://downloads.thebakery.net.au/ttrpg/MCDM%20RPG%20Draw%20Steel/Backer%20Packet%201/Art/Draconian%20Ancestry.jpg?230 |}}
+Dragon Knights are a small collective and exception to the typical Dragonborn as they sport wings and a tail more like their true dragon cousins. These Knights like the original Dragonborn were originally born from a true dragon and a humanoid but their early closeness with true dragon heritage and pride allowed them to keep their distinction from dragons. Dragon Knights often more prideful and hold an oath close to them rather than identifying themselves based off the colour or material of their scales.
