In this world, dragons transcend their traditional roles and become influential forces shaping the world. They extend their reach beyond remote lairs, seeking both wealth and power to fuel their ambitions.
Dragons play pivotal roles in major organizations, going beyond their traditional portrayals. Some dragons, like Kaida, establish themselves as rulers, asserting dominance through either legitimate claims or force. Large businesses and trading houses are often owned and manipulated by dragons, serving as tools for wealth accumulation and control. Different dragon types take on specialized roles, such as blue dragons forming pirate gangs or brass and bronze dragons establishing mercenary companies. Silver and gold dragons contribute to intellectual and cultural development by forming orders and universities to further long-term goals. Dragons wield influence behind the thrones of nations, either as puppeteers or trusted advisors. The house of Hohenberg, with dragon advisors like Kaida, exemplifies this dynamic.
Dragons engage in intricate and ambitious schemes, craving both wealth and power. Their involvement in political, economic, and magical maneuvering shapes the world’s landscape.
Dragons are deeply embedded in the political fabric of nations. They serve as advisors, subtly directing nations, or even puppeteer thrones from the shadows. Dragons forge alliances and friendships with ruling houses, sharing their wisdom and power. Relationships like those between Kaida and the house of Hohenberg showcase the amicable side of dragon-human interactions.
Dragons in the Märchenweltgrenze
In the embrace of the Feyrealm’s pure magic, dragons undergo enchanting transformations that not only alter their physical forms but also enhance their innate beauty. The fey-transformed dragons exude an ethereal glow, their scales radiating a mesmerizing luminosity that mirrors the vibrant hues of the Feywild. Delicate, intricate markings reminiscent of butterflies or blossoming flowers grace their scales, turning each dragon into a living canvas of fey-inspired art.
Wings become fey masterpieces, gaining an ethereal and delicate appearance akin to the wings of butterflies. With feathers arranged in patterns reminiscent of blooming flowers, the dragons now navigate the skies with unparalleled grace. Their manes, if present, take on an otherworldly allure, rippling with mystical energy. Flowers, vines, or iridescent feathers naturally entwined with horns, claws, and tails, serving as enchanting adornments that symbolize the dragon’s profound connection to the Feywild.
Eyes, the windows to the soul, transform, capturing the essence of the Feyrealm’s magic. Vibrant colors unseen in the mortal realm enchant onlookers, captivating all who gaze into the dragon’s gaze. As they move, dragons leave behind a subtle trail of sparkling motes, creating an ephemeral aura that enhances their regal presence.
Feyrealm-Exposed Dragon Abilities
When dragons spend extended periods in the Feyrealm, their exposure to its magical energies infuses them with new abilities. These enchanting traits reflect the dragon’s connection to the Feywild and enhance their prowess in subtle yet magical ways:
- Fey Step: Once per short rest, the dragon can utilize a fey-infused teleportation ability, disappearing in a burst of sparkling motes and reappearing up to 60 feet away. This sudden shift allows the dragon to navigate the battlefield with unparalleled agility.
- Charm Weave: The dragon can weave a subtle enchantment into its roars or hisses, attempting to charm creatures within a 30-foot radius. Affected creatures must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or become charmed by the dragon for a minute. They can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of their turns.
- Feywild Resilience: The dragon gains advantage on saving throws against spells and effects that would alter its mind or perception. The innate connection to the Feywild grants it heightened resistance to mental manipulation.
- Flickering Presence: As a reaction to taking damage, the dragon can momentarily phase out of reality, reducing the damage by half. This flickering evasion allows it to avoid harm through a brief connection to the Feywild.
- Feywild Echo: When the dragon uses its breath weapon, the affected area becomes infused with fey magic. For the next minute, creatures that enter or start their turn in the area are subjected to a subtle charm effect, giving them disadvantage on attacks against the dragon.
- Feywild Sight: The dragon gains darkvision up to 120 feet, allowing it to see in low-light conditions as if they were bright. Additionally, it can see into the Ethereal Plane within the same range.
- Feywild Harmony: The dragon gains advantage on Charisma-based ability checks when interacting with fey creatures or creatures native to the Feywild. Its presence exudes an aura of understanding and affinity for fey beings.
- Feywild Vigor: Once per day, the dragon can draw upon the revitalizing energies of the Feywild. As an action, it can regain hit points equal to its hit point maximum, accompanied by an ephemeral display of fey motes
