Bought it, liked it. There is a lot of fluff in it. Lots of backstory, some of it we might knew already, some of it not. Also more about the clan/family structure of Dragonborn society and their role during the time of the Nerathi Empire.
Just a few tidbits I found interesting
- Some Dragonborn, especially during the time of Arkhosia, seemed to follow a creation myth indicating that the Dragonborn were Io's first creation and the dragons were just created for the Dawn War, making the Dragonborn the "superior" race. Interesting twist. I am sure the Dragons are not amused.
- The Nerathi Empire was integrating other races better than other (non-human) empires, but with a few restrictions - appparantly Dragonborn were not allowed to gather in large groups. The humans wanted not just allies, but also keep tabs on others.
I agree that in a way it's a very big Dragon article on Dragonborns. But I did mention before that I really liked the big articles, right?
