 The Dragons, numbering seven, are powerful creatures all capable of great magic, of showering their favourites with rewards, and wreaking great destruction on those who displease them.  All the Dragons are believed to be capable of shifting form - not only between the giant firebreathing winged lizards of legend and to humanoid forms, but to any that they so wish to take.  The motivations of the Dragons are believed by most to be worn on their sleeves in their names and mannerisms, but it is also suspected this appearance of simplicity may mask further mysteries.
-Dragonlings, a lesser form of the Dragons that manifest a fraction of their power, are often seen in areas Dragons have nested, or accompanying them as an entourage.
+Dragonlings, a lesser form of the Dragons that manifest a fraction of their power, are often seen in areas Dragons have nested, or accompanying them as an entourage.  Since the Dragons were freed of their Threefold Curse by Eirik using Excalibur, Dragonlings are said to be "unhappy" about the turn of events.

 Envy, the Green Dragon, is a sulky and capricious Dragon whose exact motivations are not publicly clear but seem to be manifested primarily on spite.   Envy is also known to adopt the guise of the Marquess of Thorns in Auralia, provoking interhouse disputes that often turn violent.
+As of Chapter 6, Envy is //dead// -- slain at mortal hands.  The other Dragons are understood to not be thrilled about this.

 Pride, the Silver Dragon, would have everyone believe and profess that they are the greatest and most magnificent of all the Dragons.  Fuelled by their ego, Pride nominates themself as the Leader of the Dragons - a title which the others vehemently oppose.  At the third opening of Camelot, Pride was seen in the company of a Dragonling (or Prideling, as they called it) that ensured that they could be seen from all angles at all times.
+As of Chapter 6, Pride has shorn its horns and refers to itself as "Silver" instead.

 Sloth, the White Dragon, is a creature that has all the time in the world and would like to use that time to nap.  Preferring the form of a gigantic cat, Sloth sits on vast amounts of knowledge (both figuratively and literally, it would appear) - a trove for those that can keep its attention for long enough to extract it.
+Since the fourth opening of Camelot, Sloth has not been sighted.  Rumours abound that the mysterious Captain Adventure is simply another form...

+ADVENTURE! -- that's Captain ADVENTURE! to you -- is a fearsome pirate and adventurer.  Taking the form of a bipedal white cat, Adventure is always looking for a thrill and actively seeks the best experiences.
-Wrath, the Red Dragon, is a being of abject hate and rage.  The only Dragon to have been widely sighted before the Fall of Camelot, Wrath was the main line of attack in Morgana's failed assault on Camelot until the Dragon turned on her ally too.  Believed to be gone, Wrath was found to have been slumbering beneath the surface of Regretspath in [[Hundred Realms#Melltith]] until being awoken by the castle above taking flight.  Enraged, Wrath took flight to burn the world to cinders, bearing down toward [[Hundred Realms#Nelaria]] until the combined efforts of the Hundred Realms during Camelot's third opening locked it in battle until a better solution could be found.

-The Big Bad Wolf is a gigantic wolf that prowls the forests of the Hundred Realms and wields god-like power.  Commanding the respect of legions of wolves - some of which are sapient - the Big Bad Wolf has been accruing power with an agenda that can only spell trouble.  Though the Wolf can be reasoned with, their motivations are clearly self-interested, and recent attempts to parlay with them have very nearly resulted in their visitors being eaten alive.

+As of Chapter 6, Wrath has not been seen and is believed to have shed its skin.  Its exact location is currently not well known.

 Oftentimes in Camelot, glowing creatures appear with a purpose to guide and instruct.  They do not talk but understand what is said to them, and appear exclusively at night.  What they want, why they do it, and what they are is still a great mystery, but they are believed to be benign.

+===== Behemoth =====
+//Pronouns: Unknown//
+Beyond the bounds of the world, a great being lives in the dark that claims to protect those worlds lost from the reality of the Hundred Realms.  Its manifestations are brief and significant, and it shows a great interest in the construction of "Gateways" to bring lost worlds back.
+Behemoth manifests in Camelot as a large deer skull, but has been known to take other forms.  It is believed to be in opposition with the Font of Magic.
