Background Code

When the ancient blue dragons of Akarnis fell in the Battle of the Shattered Sky, their bodies did not decay like ordinary creatures. Their scales calcified into storm fossils, each of which retained the ultimate power of the dragons that once ruled the skies.

These fragments are not lifeless. Each piece of dragon scale retains the memory of lightning, a trace of the dragon's will, and a potential resonance with the open sky. Even after centuries, the dragon scales still hum with the intent of static electricity. Those who wear them report the taste of ozone on their tongues and a sensation of distant thunder beneath their skin.
