 ===== History ===== ===== History =====
  
-Required. What events led the species to where they are today? A full history is not necessary, but please include enough to give players an idea of how their characters may have come into the universe.+Originally [[Vaigarin]], when a handful of eggs got lost and pulled through a portal, the hatchlings arrive on Ereshkigal. These would become the first Endragons, changing vastly to adapt to Ereshkigals environment and losing their knowledge of shapeshifting, created an entire separate subspecies, viewed more as a distant cousin of the Vaigarin; than a Vaigarin at all.  
 + 
 +==== Ionic energy ==== 
 +When the eggs got sucked through the portal, this forever altered their bodies and charged them with this energy, which they passed down to their young becoming a permanent part of their biology. 
  
 ===== Habitat and Population ===== ===== Habitat and Population =====
  
-Required. What environments does this species live in? How many of this species are there? You can say something like 'common throughout the sector', 'rare outside of their home system', etc if you don't want to use numbers.+Endragon's populate all of Ereshkigal, their patterns and additions varying to fit the exact biome they inhabit. Currently their numbers remain fairly low due to the way they bring up their offspring and persistent threat from [[Varcolacs]]

 <blockquote>The stay apparatus is a group of ligaments, tendons and muscles which "lock" major joints in the limbs of the horse. It is best known as the mechanism by which horses can enter a light sleep while still standing up. It does, however, exist in other large land mammals, where it plays a role in reducing fatigue while standing. The stay apparatus allows animals to relax their muscles and doze without collapsing. The stay apparatus is an arrangement of muscles, tendons and ligaments that work together so that an animal can remain standing with virtually no muscular effort. <blockquote>The stay apparatus is a group of ligaments, tendons and muscles which "lock" major joints in the limbs of the horse.

-  * Required. How is this species created? What's its gestation period? What is involved in child birth? What are the stages of its life? What is its lifespan and what impacts it? You only need to answer the relevant questions. Feel free to add more, if appropriate. +  * Endragons come together only to mate, laying their eggs high in safe spaces such as mountains or deep below the earth in caves. Once the eggs are laid & incubated the parents separate and leave the hatchlings to fend for themselves. They receive no parental care and being unable to fly upon hatching often will eat their siblings leaving only 1 or 2 from each clutch to survive.
