-**[[lore:races:lizards#draconics|Draconic Lizards:]]** This race, resembling small bipedal dragons without wings, was found within [[settings:jaern:kratal|Kratalian]] mountains in the late 10070s, having lived in subterranean cities unknown to the world all that time. It is thought by some that close proximity to draconic magic transformed semi-aquatic lizards into new forms, more similar to dragons. Some also believe that dragons created the draconic lizards, much like they did with the drakos. +The god Kelvar was well-known on Torandor, though she has been almost entirely forgotten during millennia of slumber.

-These are tiny creatures, with no actual connection to the faerie or the [[settings:planes:dreaming|Dreaming]]. Some have gossamer, insectile wings, while others have leathery wings like a true dragon's. It is mostly agreed that the origin of fairy dragons is magical. Instead of a half-spade on their tail like some dragons do, most fairy dragons have a small toxic stinger, much like a scorpion's.+These are tiny creatures, with no actual connection to the [[lore:creatures:dreamt|faerie]] or the [[settings:planes:dreaming|Dreaming]].

 They are easily tamed, friendly, and playful creatures. They act much like foxes in the wild, making warrens in the earth and in trees and running about in loosely organized packs.
