[QUOTE="Yaarel, post: 9810345, member: 58172"] Someone with the Heroes of Faerun confirm this? Google AI says it lists two (actually three) separate origins. I paraphrase. 1. Tymanther Dragonborn from the alternate reality Abier. Their culture is paladin-ish valuing oaths. They are generally nontheistic. In Abier, the tyranny by Dragons estranged these Dragonborn. 2. Ancient Dragonborn that are native to Toril. The deity Io (in the aspect of Asgorath) created them in prehistory, before the arrival of Humans. They still survive in isolated communities, each with their own distinctive traits and customs. Some have close relations with the Dragons of their ancestries. Some have unique forms, such as wings. 3. Bahamut Dragonborn. Some of the Ancient Dragonborn actually are other Humanoids, like Humans, who transformed into a Dragonborn by means of a divine ritual called the Rite of Rebirth. These served Bahamut as champions against the Dragons of Tiamat. If the above is accurate, the suggested Dragonborn of the Mere of Dead Men are (2) Ancient Dragonborn who are in one of these isolated communities. They probably have good relations with the Black Dragons there. Silver and Brass may also be present since earlier times, or later from Bahamut. They can have unique traits, including a Lindorm form. This locates a significant Dragonborn community Between Neverwinter and Waterdeep. [/QUOTE]
