Yr'Arbilon the Scaled Ones (Third Power of the Empire)

 DragonScales

Before time began, the Cosmic Dragon of the 10 eyes created the Dragons. The Dragons, colorless and without eyes, grew envious of the Cosmic Dragon, killed their creator and gained color from each taking an eye becoming Dragon Gods of Black, Red, Blue, Gold… White abstained and remained sightless, Grey ate an eye but feeling remorse vomited up the eye and repented.

Yr’Arbilon, On’Mogi, and the Xiaman are the ancient clans that became the DragonMen of the Color Scales, or the Scaled Ones.  The warrior tribes That upon coming to the new world, settled on the eastern coast and quickly came into conflict with the great Dragons and their kin.  The Dragon Wars were devastating for both sides, with each peoples finding a unique solution for the Dragon Wars. 

The On’Mogi began consuming Dragon blood which began to transform the population into something ‘Other’ but ultimately the peoples suffered from fire-blood plague.  The Xaiman made a kinship with the Great Dragon God of Grey eldest of his kind. These people became known as DragonHeirs.  

The Yr’Arbilon saw the Dragons as the most powerful of all creature and prided themselves as being greater than all, found strength in conquering the Apex creatures becoming the Apex themselves. After the Dragons in the region were hunted to extinction or migrated to the northern islands; they then sought to conquer the nation.

 The Yr’Arbilon first challenged the  On’Mogi, who even when weakened by fire-plague and diminished numbers, fought to a stalemate. Eventually the Yr’Arbilon and the On’Mogi were unified through marriages.  Then The Yr’Arbilon turned to DragonHeirs, finding their kinship with dragons an affront to nature; destroyed the DragonHeirs utterly.  The nation was united and renamed Arbilon.  

The then new nation of Arbilon sought to conquer the other neighboring nations beginning the Warring Era.  Ultimately, the nation of Arbilon was beaten by the then lesser tribe called the Athenians.

Today, the Scaled Ones of Arbilon, are the third Pillar in the Empire, along with the Aetherians, and the Rux’parthenox. 

The Scaled Ones are a tall, robust, martial people uniquely bred, and trained at birth for fighting Dragons.  Called Scaled Ones for wearing the skin and scales of dragons for fire reduction and fire proofing.  Known for the use of heavy shields called DragonNails, great swords and heavy armor.
