  • Draconic Powers include the powers of Potion and Poison, as well as Dragonfire, Serpent Venom, and minor powers such as Echo.
  • Draconic is the language of the dragons. Draconic is an obscure tongue only spoken by a few scholars, for native speakers — dragons — are seldom encountered. The Draconic language is made up of husky syllables and has a growling sound.
  • Draconic is the native language of Haylese Dragons. Many corruptions of its words can be found in the languages of Baqu'lan, Common Stradsofarene, Pethass, and others.
  • Draconic is the language of the dragons. Some say that the draconic script was created by Io, the great dragon of magic and knowledge. The draconic of today is much different than Ancient Draconic, the language of the Draconic Prophecy and the dragonmarks; however, there are enough similarities that someone who understands modern draconic could translate a dragonmark into the reader's language. In the current day, draconic is still spoken by the dragons of Argonnessen, as well as their descendants: the dragonborn, the kobolds, the lizardfolk, and the troglodytes.
  • As one of the oldest living races native to the world, dragons speak one of the most ancient mortal languages. When the mortal races beheld the gods, each heard the divine Supernal language in its own unique fashion depending on its shape and demeanor. Thus the foundational languages of the world arose, including Draconic. Io created the Draconic script, Iokharic, so his mortal children could record their impressions of the world he hoped they would inherit. Both the language and the script survive to the present day.

  • To start using Draconic in game, type -dr console command for Mith's Virtual Console. Draconic is the language of the ancient, early generation dragons. Draconic on Arelith is not "true" Draconic (Draconic as dragons speak it), therefore it might not hurt to keep into consideration the difference in the three Draconics, depending on the situation: All Wizards gain Draconic as a spellcasting, arcane Draonic when they have wizard levels. It is a language they use for spells, but also everything else which involves the Arcane. This arcane Draconic is more or less a fancy variant of the true Draconic. All Kobolds too gain Draconic, but as the kobold language. Kobolds use this language to communicate with eachother. It is a language derived from true Draconic, but with centuries between the language. In a way a dialect, but perhaps a language on its own, with resemblances to true Draconic. It has little to do with the arcane Draconic. (On a sidenote, see: Options for Speaking Kobold) True Draconic, as spoken by ancient, early generation dragons, is a language that very few have mastered. Even not all dragons know the true Draconic language. The first reason is that there are not that many ancient dragons left to find in the world: some were killed by brave knights, others by their own kin. The second reason is that ancient dragons rarely (if at all) have a reason, or the patience, to learn anyone their language. Compare true Draconic to Latin in the real world: it is the language of ancient Rome, the Romans. After the fall of the Roman empire, Latin became a lost language. As it is now in the world, Latin is in fact a dead language. Italian resembles it on many levels, but there are centuries between the languages: they are not the same anymore. Italian therefore can be compared to the Kobold Draconic, a strongly evolved dialect. 18th Century scholars often spoke and wrote in Latin, because it was simply considered a language of knowledge. They had no evidence of how exactly it was spoken, since the only Latin known to humans that live now, is written Latin; we have no idea if the spoken Latin resembles the written Latin, we can only guess and reason, but we are never sure. This is how you could look at the arcane Draconic as wirzards use it. On Arelith this language is known by: * Kobolds * Wizards * Red Dragon Disciple

Io created the Draconic script, Iokharic, so his mortal children could record their impressions of the world he hoped they would inherit. Both the language and the script survive to the present day. Dragon-related races, including dragonborn and kobolds, also speak Draconic and use Iokharic. Some individuals among these races take great pride in their use of the same tongue that rumbles from the scaled lips of ancient wyrms, although others curse their lineage. Most, however, rarely give it a thought. As with all languages, variations and dialects based on the order or race of the speaker abound within the Draconic tongue. Students of dialects can potentially discern a dragon’s variety, scales unseen. Though accents are sometimes thick, such variation rarely hampers communication. Languages derived from Supernal are robust enough to resist natural alternations that would render distant populations of speakers unintelligible to each other.
