The location implies the Dragonborn originate from elsewhere and arrived to Flanaess as merchants.By extension, the Dragon Magazine map of planet Oerth mentions tales about the Dragon Prince on "Dragon Island" that probably is the place of origin for the Dragonborn species, at least as a draconic civilization. The traderoute is ancient, probably prehistoric. The Dragonborn of Ket may have arrived long ago, and often continue to function traditionally as merchants across Flanaess. Thus families relocated to elsewhere in Flannaess, along trade routes, including a presence among the species diversity in Old Keoland (which mentions all core species plus Goblinoid, but not Elf, Tiefling, nor Awsimar).Ket also has sizable numbers of Tiefling but these likely come from Iuz in Flanaess, following the continental traderoute.The Greyhawk Dragonborn would mainly originate from Dragon Island. Nevertheless, because Dragons can birthe Dragonborn anywhere at any time, there can be smaller populations that are indigenous to Flanaess. These independent populations help explain the occasional presence of tails, wings, or other anatomical variant.</blockquote>
