Playable Race: Dracovi
In Cloak & Coin, the Dracovi are a sworn to serve dragons and often encountered as threats to player characters. But, there is no reason that a player could not choose to play a dracovi.
The origins of the dracovi are not known. In the Epic of Githgamari, they are spoken of as coming from beyond the stars while various elven myths say they were created by the dragons eons past. Before the awakening of the first dragons, they wandered the world with an absence of true purpose. Misnamed lizardfolk, they were a reclusive people often hunted by the humans of the central plains of Arkiya as monsters. While they remain reclusive, the highly spiritual Dracovi travel the world seeking ancient lore on dragons, hoping to awaken those that remain in slumber or acting on the behalf of dragons to whom they have already sworn fealty.
