Lore
Dragons of the Rutile Hematite species have a long, intertwined history with both the Lightweaver and Earthshaker. The species itself is one of the first few that started appearing after settlements of various dragons sprung up in the element zones of their chosen Deity and would hold positions highly revered as their main goal was to protect their Deity at all costs.
These dragons would be revered guardians and healers, their positions among themselves varying based on their breed and separating them into the two factions that would protect each Deity. These factions would correspond with each other for both Deities, one being an Outer Chasm/Lower Ring guard and an Inner Chasm/Upper Ring guard. Dragons of the Outer and Inner Chasms would be found protecting the Earthshaker, while their kin of the Lower and Upper Rings would protect the Lightweaver.
Dragons of this subspecies who chose to follow the Earthshaker would be found within the GreatWyrm's Breach, which became the residence of the Outer Chasm guards, and the Pillar of the World, where the Inner Chasm guards would be as they protected the Earthshaker. Others, who chose to follow the Lightweaver, would live within the various floors of the Beacon of the Radiant Eye. Lower Ring guards would be found within the first two floors of the Beacon, while Upper Ring guards would be on the floors just below the Lightweaver herself.
While these dragons would protect different Deities, they would function in a very similar way. The lighter and more agile dragons (Coatls, Mirrors, Nocturnes, Spirals, and Tundras) would hold their post within the Outer Chasm and Lower Ring, fending off any attacks as the first wall of defense. Dragons within the Inner Chasm and Upper Ring would be stronger and heftier (Imperials, Guardians, Ridgebacks, Snappers, and Wildclaws), but much harder to defeat than their more light-weight counterparts. The only dragons that would be seen in any of the four groups would be dragons known for healing (Faes, Pearlcatchers, and Skydancers), these dragons would have a much higher magical capacity than their more strength oriented brethren.
Dragons from this subspecies disappeared after the tower shattered. Folklore stated they had as a breed decided to self-exile for their perceived failure to prevent the catastrophe. Their descendants have only begun to reappear hundreds of years later long after their ancestors reign and deeds had been forgotten, compelled to seek to protect those who cannot protect themselves, bring justice, and uphold honor. When asked where they have come from they will not answer.
