A species I've been working on for a few months now in my free time. They're going to be a mostly open species. Finally going public with them!
Please join their discord for updates, if you're interested!; https://discord.gg/C35hyQ9WAJ

Draemel is the name of the main planet of focus. It was once a moon, terraformed into a new world. Home to the Daedradons, that coexist alongside various other creatures that grew from the new worlds environments.

Daedradons are the main species of focus, they’re bipedal warriors with a very strong connection to elemental magic- and a very boopable snoot. They come in two varieties- Common and Warrior. You can read more about them on twitter https://twitter.com/DraemelOfficial (or in the discord).
Common daedradon refer to the more common, smaller, and hornless don’s that exist scattered through the different domains of Draemel.
Warrior daedradon refer to the larger, bulkier, and horned don’s. All warrior don’s have to go through some form of battle training when learning how to use their magic. (This training is optional to Common don’s however almost all of them participate anyways.)
Ascended daedradon are the creators of Draemel. They are a Daedradon that has been given the power of an Orijem. There are only six in total- however if they die, the Orijem will find a new don to give its power to. (Think green lantern style, lol.)

Orijems are the special gems that are a part of Ascended daedradon. They are actually semi-sentient beings that created and ruled over the old world in silence. Once their peace and survival was threatened by the Shadow Walkers, they sacrificed their sentience in order to transfer their magic to another who might be able to wield it.
