There be dragons here

Sometimes, during my travels, I come across a tome of some remark. One of such tomes is Orgund Mesart's "Treatise on Dragons and their descendants: A companion for the races of the world." Here is a quote from one of the first chapters. 

"Despite being similar in their genetic makeup, dragons actually pity dragonborn for not being able to fly. Dragonborn look upon dragons as a relic from an era they evolved from.

Dragonborn have a drive that pushes them towards whatever goal they decide is worth the time. If a dragonborn decides to master the bastard sword they will use the same weapon until it falls apart from age. From a wizard’s viewpoint, it’s almost admirable. They will usually join an army or some form of clan due to their need to distance themselves from the solitary nature of their dragon ancestors.

Dragons enjoy a very different lifestyle. They test warriors by hoarding piles of gold and waiting for parties of adventurers to come find them only to be cooked in the blast of dragon fire. Dragons also conquer their foes with their powerful claws.

Now here is an interesting tidbit: dragon eggs are delicious. Because they are delicious, dragons will defend their eggs to the death, meaning most dragon eggs are rarely tasted. But giants have been able to halt a dragon long enough to snatch some eggs and eat them at their leisure.

Since giants tend to run the gamut of “stupid” to “ very stupid” they don’t realize that dragonborn eggs aren’t as large as dragon eggs, so they go for any eggs and destroy everything in the area, including the dragonborn villages. Because of that in combination with giants bragging about the taste of dragon eggs and dragonborn holding grudges like a pro, dragonborn tend to regard giants with anger and mistrust."

And there you go! A walking companion for the races that were of our world! I included a piece from another book solely because although my genius is mighty, I would not pretend to be the only compiler of knowledge of our age... Just the only one of note.
