 {{ :legacy:characters:ancestry:wyrmblood.png?400|}}Their unchecked greed and hubris led to the collapse of their civilization. Once a rising power, their society crumbled under the weight of their own failed ambitions. Wars, internal strife, and the inability to wield their new forms to their advantage left them vulnerable. Over generations, the Wyrmblood became a scattered and broken people, struggling to find a new purpose beyond their ancestors' folly. {{ :legacy:characters:ancestry:wyrmblood.png?400|}}Their unchecked greed and hubris led to the collapse of their civilization.

 +Even without the vast might of their progenitors, Wyrmblood command attention. Their presence is magnetic, their voices resonant, and their eyes burn with the intensity of flame. Others see in them echoes of dragons — noble to some, terrifying to others. To stand before a Wyrmblood is to feel the pull of that ancient majesty, whether one wishes to bow, flee, or challenge it.
  
 In their search for redemption, the Wyrmblood have uncovered a deeper connection to the very dragon spirits they once tried to harness. Though they lack the raw power of true dragons, they have learned to tap into the magic those spirits offer, channeling it in new and unexpected ways. Instead of mimicking draconic might, they are reshaping that power to suit their own needs, developing techniques and spells unique to their kind. In their search for redemption, the Wyrmblood have uncovered a deeper connection to the very dragon spirits they once tried to harness.
