[QUOTE="Corinnguard, post: 9169388, member: 7033886"] Dragons from [I]Endless Realms' Creature Compendium[/I] differ from other dragons in other RPGs in that they aren't birthed in the traditional sense. Instead, they are formed by massive explosions of excess energy within the realms. When specific types of energy gather in concentrated amounts within an area, that energy continues to build up until it can no longer be contained. Once it reaches critical mass, a young dragon is born. Some dragons are formed from a singular energy type, while others such as gemstone dragons are born from a specific mix of several energy types in exact quantities. In other words, dragons within this setting come in with a bang, not a whimper. ;) 😋 Mated pairs of dragons or single elder dragons may also choose to birth a new dragon in a similar manner. They gather dense sources of energy-often hordes of magical items or other objects related to their core nature-and use that energy to create a dense pool, from which their young emerge. So if you came across a dragon's hoard in this setting, they're using it to create more of their own kind. Literally! ;) Most of the dragons in the Endless Realms setting are Gem Dragons. They aren't psionic like the ones in D&D, and there are a lot more of them here. Amber, Amethyst, Citrine, Emerald, Opal, Rose Quartz, Ruby, Sapphire and Topaz. Then you have the elemental dragons of Earth, Fire, Frost, Storm, Water and Wind. Lastly you have Chaos, Death, Fairy, Order, and Prismatic dragons. A Death Dragon here might look like an undead Dracolich, but it's not undead. It's the result of too much necrotic energy being held in a given area where too much death has occurred, like a battlefield. [/QUOTE]
