Lothair de Montdragon is a knight of the Order of the Eternal. His sole aim is to free humanity from draconic corruption. He has wielded a spear from an early age, making him a formidable defensive fighter. Fire is his element- his perfect mastery of it enables him to reduce any enemy he encounters to ashes.

Electrane, an apprentice Oracle, shares a special connection with dragonets and Dragonbloods. As a fierce magician with draconic and electrical abilities, she uses her destructive spells to defeat her rivals from a distance.

Rurik Haraldson is one of the finest warriors in the Nordic lands. He survived the ingestion of White Dragon blood, the initiation rite of the barbarians, which granted him superhuman strength and ice powers. An aggressive melee fighter, his enemies fear his axe and hammer.
