     Auric the Golden King 
was the founder of the Draconian Order (also known as the First Dynasty of of Draconia), the
     predecessor guild to the Empire of Draconia. He was the builder and destroyer of the first Dragonspire Keep. We call him
     "Auric the Mad" because it was he who began the Draconian Revolution. Yet, before you hate this man, remember that without
     him, none of us would be together today. 

     Scarlus the General 
was the companion of Auric the Mad, and with him helped forge the Draconian Order. He was a mighty
     leader, but no word has been heard from him since the Draconian Revolution. 

     Valiant the Just
was among the original members of the Draconian Order, and was a High Lord of that organization. He is the
     current patriarch of the House of Val, and has been the Chancellor of Draconia since Pyros Haldir became Emperor. Valiant
     was the first Duke of Enchantica, and he was present during the Fall of Drak Yardok. He was also the commander of the army
     that retook that very city, liberating Enchantica of the Darkness. Currently he resides in Dragonspire Keep. 

     Cryos, the Keeper of the Ancients
was the first Duke of the Northern Reaches upon the conception of the Empire. He was an
     ancient sorceror that was entrusted with caring for the last dragon eggs left in the world since the Ice Age. None know if he was
     successful in that task, for he disappeared only a year after being named Duke. Some say he was killed by the Sorceress of the
     Wastes. 

     Guyver of Kalthorne
was a High Lord of Draconia during the first dynasty. In the Draconian Revolution, he aided Pyros by
     providing his navy, which helped link the western coast together. Upon Pyros' coronation, Guyver was made the first Duke of
     the Coastlands, as well as the Lord of the Sea. He commanded the navies of Draconia until his death in the faraway land of
     Khanduras at the head of a legion to aid the Alliance in the Tristram Campaign. 

     Frosty the Bard
was the first poet laureate of Draconia. During the first dynasty, he was a knight that fought with words of
     peace instead of swords of war. Some of his work can be seen in the original Dragonspire page. He was one who heartened the
     people with his songs and his very presence. Sadly, he perished during the chaos of the Draconian Revolution. 

     Onaeus the First Prophet
was once a Lord in the First Dynasty. Upon the ascendency of Pyros, he became the Praetor of
     Draconia, as well as the first Duke of Nova Q'lynnesti. He was the creator and the first Patriarch of the Druidic Order, a
     society of priests dedicated to recording the history and writing the stories of the guilds. He held all these positions until the
     end of the Purging of Enchantica. He is credited with the creation of the duchy system, most draconian customs and etiquette,
     amd much of the early history of the Empire. He was trapped in the Window of Souls for six Draconian years, then he was
     released and took the Fathership of the Draconian Circle for a time. He perished facing Mephistos during the Third War of
     Westmarch. 

     Pyros the Lawgiver 
was once the High Magistrate (a position combining elements of the praetorship and chancellorship of
     today) of the Draconian Order (Otherwise known as the First Dynasty). During the Draconian Revolution, and the ensuing
     Dark Ages, Pyros was the man who held toagether the spirit of the people, and was declared Emperor of Draconia. He has
     since engineered most of the laws of Draconia, and rebuilt Dragonpsire from the ashes of civil war. He now resides in the
     Imperial Palace in Dragonspire City. 

     Stein the Champion
was the greatest warrior to ever walk the fertile lands of Draconia. A mere soldier for Pyros during the
     Draconian Revolution, he quickly rose to become the first Duke of the Lakelands when the war was won. His prowess at
     combat was legendary, and led to his being named "Champion of the Empire". In his honour, the title has never been used
     since. His short but glorious life ended when the darkness first enveloped Enchantica. He went to the forest to slay the Master
     of the Darkness, and so perished in its vast uncharted tracts. 

     Darkar of Kala
was the first sworn paladin of the Goddess of Light. Early in the second generation, he was befriended by
     Onaeus, and helped the old druid build the City of Soliath, becoming the first Baron of Soliath. He became the first
     bloodknight, binding his blood to that of Onaeus, becoming his sworn protector. Eventually, he rose to become the second
     Duke of the Coastlands, where he began the construction of temples and libraries. Sadly, the mighty paladin perished in battle
     during the Purging of Enchantica. His weapon, the holy Solic Mace, is now enshrined in the Great Temple of Soliath. 

     Grey_Eagle the Vigilant
was once a member fo the Knights of Truth. After the fall of that illustrious order, he journeyed to
     Draconia, where his noble actions made him the first Baron of Drak Tauros under the guidance of Stein. Upon the duke's death
     during the Darkening of Enchantica, Grey_Eagle became the second Duke of the Lakelands. His accomplishments in this
     capacity included strenghening the border with Westmarch, inducting many new knights into the legions of Draconia, and
     training those same warriors to be just and noble servitors of the crown. However, as happens with many knights at some point
     in their lives, Kala called upon hims to give up his earthly trappings, and wander the world as a pilgrim of Light. 

     Wulfgar the Guardian
also known as the Blooded Wolf, was a tribesman from beyond the Reaching Mountains until his
     chieftains instructed him to go forth to the south and explore the world. The first land he came upon was Draconia, and he
     immediately fell in love. He became a mighty knight in the north, and eventually became the baron of the city that he himself
     had founded, Tol Brandir. Wulfgar was instrumental in bringing many dozens of brave knights into the legions of Draconia, and
     he in fact was among the foremost of the Guardians. He served bravely in the Purging of Enchantca, and was one of the heroes
     of the Sorceress War. Since the beginning of the Third War of Westmarch, he had become the third Duke of the Northern
     Reaches, then the third Praetor of the Draconian Empire. 

     Calland the Farsighted
began his distinguished career as a Knight of Nova Q'lynnesti. In time, his wise words and gentle actions
     led him to become the Baron of Soliath upon Lord Darkar's promotion. He served in this capacity for some time, governing the
     Holy City well until the Purging of Enchantica began. The then-Duke of Nova Q'lynnesti, Onaeus, departed at the head of an
     army, and did not come back. Calland thus inherited Onaeus' titles, becoming the Draconian Praetor as well as the Duke.
     Calland was a good duke, but he was also the mightiest praetor to ever serve in the High Council. His efforts brought so many
     unseen boons to the Empire that we will be feeling the effects of his actions for an eternity to come. He departed the realm
     soon after the Sorceress War, having been called upon by Kala in the same manner as Grey_Eagle. However, soon Draconia
     called back to him, and he returned to take up the reigns as the Chief Ambassador of the Empire 

     Pug the Mirthful
was a Lord of Draconia in the First Dynasty. After the Draconian Revolution had ended, he was one of those
     warriors who went to the north to help establish the borders of the new empire. Soon, the Keeper disappeared, and Pug was
     named the second Duke of this lonely Duchy. His long reign lasted until his peaceful death in his bed, a scant week before the
     eruption of the Third War of Westmarch. 

     Klenthi of Drak Yardok
had the misfortune to become the second Duke of Enchantica at the time that the darkness had
     enveloped the duchy, thus leaving him with no realm to rule. Undaunted, he was one of the foremost commanders in that
     campaign, earning him the respect of many of the older lords in the aristocracy. His great achievement was the rebuilding of
     Drak Yardok, and of making Enchantica a duchy to rival all the others. For years, this great lord had been thought dead on a
     quest involving a sword of power, but he has since quietly returned, and now resides as an advisor in the court of the Duke of
     Enchantica. 

     Midnight of Nala
was once a great member of the Obsidian Knights until the disbanding of that Order. He arrived in Draconia,
     guided by Wulfgar the Guardian. He was soon knighted, and quickly rose to become the first Baron of Drak Lelwyn, the Jewel
     of the South. Upon the departure of Grey_Eagle, Midnight became the third Duke of the Lakelands. The image of the
     battle-wary Lakelands softened under his reign, becoming more of a centre of culture than a centre of war. His great
     accomplishments include the founding of the Academy of Knights, the Museum of Art and History, the Winter Solstice
     Festival, and now the revival of the Order of Nala with the Sanctuary of Spirits. During the Third War of Westmarch, Nala the
     Dark Goddess touched him for too long, and he had been captured by the forces of Darkness. 

     Gates the Faithful
arrived from Westmarch shortly after the Purging of Enchantica, was knighted shortly after. He became the
     Baron of Drak Tauros due to his distinguished service in battle, became a Druid around that time. Gates was involved in the
     Witch Hunts when they were started by Lycurgus, where through possession of Nala he was compelled to strike down a
     rampaging Midnight, whose spirit was sent into Limbo for nearly a year. After the beginning of the Third War of Westmarch, he
     had become the fourth Duke of the Lakelands. He soon stepped down from this position, though, to answer the calling of Kala.
     He is now the Archdruid of Draconia, residing in the Great Temple of Soliath. 

     Lupus the Brewmaster
was a knight of Turin, the second Duke of the Coast. With his great skills, he soon became the second
     Baron of Drak Kalthorne. In this capacity, he changed the industry of Drak Kalthorne from fishing and shipping to the more
     lucrative industry of ale brewing. He was titled "Beer Baron of Draconia", and was then boosted to become the fourth Duke of
     the Coastlands. 

     Velera the Kind
was a Knight of the Coast for some time, until her uncommon skill of outlasting Duke Lupus at his own
     celebration feasts distinguished her for something better. She became the Baroness of Drak Nineva as a result, and ruled her
     people with a kind and even hand, thus gaining her her title. With the civil unrest in Nova Q'lynnesti, and the death of Duke
     Archen, the Emperor requested that she leave her beloved Coastlands to become the Baroness of Soliath. The Holy City was
     pacified with her presence, and the aristocracy was greatly pleased with the manner in which she handled it. She was made the
     fourth Duke of Nova Q'lynnesti, and remained so for a short time until the wanderlust took her away from Draconia. She has
     since returned, and has become the Duke of Dragonspire. 

     Hadin the Commander
began his career as a Knight of Dragonspire. He was a mighty warrior who fought in the Sorceress war,
     and became the Baron of Dragonspire. Upon the invasion of Draconia by Westmarch, he was one of the few aristocrats left
     uncaptured, so he retreated and began gathering an army in the north. He was the Lord-Marshal of Draconia during this time,
     the supreme commander of the armies of the Empire. He lead the allied armies that helped to drive Westmarch from the
     Empire during this fell time. Since this war, he had become the Duke of Dragonspire. However, Hadin is a soldier at heart, so
     he resigned from his ducal position, and is attempting to restore the ancient Order of Bloodknights.
