 Two types of Kleemudor lizards live on this planet: the arrogant, haughty and xenophobic "Purebloods", and the Icestalkers, who have lost their sentience and are now threatening predators hunting on the icefields. Purebloods distinguish themselves by their psionic ability, and pushed out those who would eventually become the Icestalkers from their haven city-caverns dug into the ice. Little did they know, this decision would doom them, as the Icestalkers are now one of Kleemudor's greatest threats... Two types of Kleemudor lizards live on this planet: the arrogant, haughty and xenophobic "Purebloods", and the Icestalkers, who have lost their sentience and are now threatening predators hunting on the icefields.

-Kleemudor Purebloods have scales ranging from light blue to snow-white, with gray and black patterning here and there. They have sharp spines on their heads, backs, and tails. Purebloods and Icestalkers both have six legs (keep in mind the Purebloods' four arms have no additional effect mechanically). Most Purebloods have innate psionic ability; compared to other races' 10%, Kleemudor lizards have an 80% chance to be capable of psionics. They are tall and lanky, averaging about seven feet tall, and live to around 200 years old.+Kleemudor Purebloods have scales ranging from light blue to snow-white, with gray and black patterning here and there. They have sharp spines on their heads, backs, and tails. Purebloods and Icestalkers both have six limbs (keep in mind the Purebloods' four arms have no additional effect mechanically) though while Icestalkers move on all 6 limbs, Purebloods walk on 2.

 Purebloods reached Cahyali first, a small population landing in the wastes of [[settings:cahyali:pthora|Pthora]] as the result of a failed psionic experiment. Several centuries later, a more successful experiment let them reach Jaern, and they stuck around out of interest in Jaern's psions and their pursuits. Purebloods reached Cahyali first, a small population landing in the wastes of [[settings:cahyali:pthora|Pthora]] as the result of a failed psionic experiment.

 Scholars debate if Draconic lizards truly are related to dragons. The consensus seems to be that some Draconics truly are dragons' distant descendants, while others are normal lizardfolk who have been fully suffused with dragon magic. Their myths all mention ancient dragons who gave a gift of some form to the Draconics, granting them their gem-like horns and elemental powers. Scholars debate if Draconic lizards truly are related to dragons.

-This race was entirely unknown to Jaern until the 10070s, when a [[settings:jaern:kratal|Kratalian]] mining expedition broke into one of their grand subterranean cities. Ever since, Jaernian Draconics have been more than eager to explore the outside world. Cahyalian Draconics, on the other hand, have seemingly always been around; historical records have little information on their origins, and they have been a fact of life along with the dragons since time immemorial. Most Draconics are proud and strong folk, fully aware of their grand heritage.+This race was entirely unknown to Jaern until the 2540s, when a [[settings:jaern:kratal|Kratalian]] mining expedition broke into one of their grand subterranean cities.
