History

Theonvara was one of the first of the Deities that appeared on Avada. It was the first of the Gods to think of and then create life among the ever-shifting earth of the world. Unfortunately, the life it created was also the first to perish by the Primordials. After the Primordials' defeat, Theonvara searched far into the ether for more knowledge. It wanted to create a life that was more resilient than the last. The Abyss was his final stop in his journey, and it observed all of the horrors that reside in that plane. Theonvara's stay in the Abyss corrupted his mind with creatures far older than any of the Deities. These beings corrupted his mind into seeking nothing but chaos, and Theonvara wanted to unleash that Chaos on Avada. Theonvara spread his corruption to Lathrea, convincing him that his mother Lannalra loathed him. Together they convinced other Deities to take over. They were later known as Odelates. Lannalra caught wind of their plans and went to confront both Theonvara and Lathrea. Lannalra threatened to mention their intentions to the other Deities and Theonvara stabbed her in the heart in retaliation. This event was the Start of the Diathan War. After the Odelates lost the War, Theonvara was banished to the Abyss. After his exile, his name was wiped from the history books. Nowadays, he disguises himself as other deities, or organizations for worship. He, to this day, craves the destruction of the world.

Abyss

The Infinite Layers of the Abyss was the birthplace of the demons, a chaotic evil universe unto itself with uncountable layers of infinite variety connected haphazardly. The nature of the plane remains fairly constant: a violent, malevolent place where the strong survived on the backs of the weak, the weak conspired to overthrow the strong, alliances only lasted while convenient, and the landscape itself tortured the mind and body of all who dared to pass.

"Ah, the infinite wonders of the Abyss. If there's anything you don't like, you'll find it here."

Metallic dragons are a type of dragon distinguished typically by the color and composition of their scales, which are like that of various metals, hence the name. They were generally good, altruistic, and righteous creatures. Despite their relatively benign nature, metallic dragons were also aggressive when threatened or challenged.

Types

Although there were many metallic dragon species, the following are the ones known by sages of Avada;

Gold dragons

Gold dragons are the most powerful and majestic of the classic metallic dragons. They are wise, lawful foes of evil and injustice. Gold dragons were very knowledgeable and reclusive. They preferred stone lairs and had a cone of fire as a breath weapon.

Silver dragons

Silver dragons are regal, lawful good creatures who often take a humanoid form and live among humans and elves. Their breath weapon was a cone of freezing cold, and they normally lived in the mountains. They were very smart and preferred not to fight unless necessary.

Bronze dragons

Bronze dragons are inquisitive dragons with a fierce appearance and a fascination for warfare. They would often seek to fight evil and would join good-aligned armies in a humanoid form. They were lawful good, lived in coastal areas, and had an electrical breath weapon.

Copper dragons

Copper dragons are born pranksters, jokesters, and riddlers. They were chaotic good and lived in rocky mountains. Copper dragons had an acid-breath weapon but preferred to avoid combat altogether, instead taunting and teasing foes until they left.

Brass dragons

Brass dragons are extremely talkative and love the intense heat of deserts. They often engage foes and friends alike in hours of long-winded conversation. They avoid combat if possible, but will use their breath weapon, a cone of sleeping gas, to subdue foes if threatened. They are the weakest of the classic metallic dragons, but still chaotic good.

Mercury dragons

Mercury dragons are whimsical, impulsive creatures. They delight in unpredictability and are reputed to be mentally unstable as well.

Iron dragons

Iron dragons are powerful, dangerous predators. While most have a neutral alignment, some are evil. 

Steel dragons

Steel dragons are sociable, clever, and curious, and they prefer the company of humanoids rather than dragons. They often clandestinely lived in humanoid cities and spent much of their time in a humanoid form. They breathe a cone of poison gas.

Platinum dragons

The rarest, largest, and most powerful of the metallic dragons, platinum dragons represented the epitome of the metallic dragons. Many believed that only one ever existed.
