| {{Main|Dragons}}
| | *[[Wurm]]s |
| '''Dragons''' are huge, flying reptiles. They have incredible physical strength many of them also score high on intelligence and magical capabilities. They can be found in all colors although more dragons are aligned with [[red]] then with any other color.
| | *[[Viashino]] |
| | | **[[En'Jaga]] |
| The dragons of today are all descendants of the [[Elder Dragons]], an ancient race of very powerful beings who devastated entire worlds in their [[Dragon War]]. The winners of the war sired the races of dragons and drakes, while the losers where stripped of their wings and limbs and became the [[Elder Land Wurms]].
| |
| | |
| ===Drakes===
| |
| {{Main|Drakes}}
| |
| '''Drakes''' are smaller and less powerful than dragons. Their mind is also more similar to that of an animal than that of their draconic cousins. Like dragons they come in all colors of the [[color wheel]], but most of them are [[blue]] aligned. It is oft thought that drakes where descendants of the losers of the Elder Dragon Wars, like the Wurms, but this is not true, for their ancestry can also be traced to the surviving Elder Dragons.
| |
| | |
| Officially<ref>That is, according to medieval bestiaries.</ref> the difference between drakes and dragons is that dragons have wings in addition to their limbs, while drakes have one set of their limbs replaced by their wings, like birds or bats. Although that reasoning is true for most of Magic’s drakes and dragons there are a few exceptions such as <c>Wormfang Drake</c> and <c>Dromar, the Banisher</c>. No explanation for this has been given.

| ===Wurms===
| |
| {{Main|Wurms}}
| |
| The descendants of the losers of the Elder Dragon Wars, '''wurms''' are large, land-bound serpents with no limbs whatsoever. They typically live in forests, usually near or at the top of the food chain. Wurms are increadibly strong, but very few of them possess any magical or intelectual capabilities.
| |
| | |
| They can be aligned with any color, but are predominantly [[green]].
| |
| | |
| ===Viashino===
| |
| {{Main|Viashino}}
| |
| '''Viashino''' are a draconic, yet humanoid, race. While most of their relatives can be found on many planes and in many colors, viashino have only been seen on [[Dominaria]], [[Ravnica]], and [[Alara]] and are always, although sometimes only partially, red-aligned. | |
| | |
| It is unclear how Viashino are related to the other draconic races.
