Dragon/Spirits of the Elements, Life, Death, and Rebirth
Description: The Dragon Spirits are an old philosophy
that say the world was created in the conflict between two great primordial
dragons, Asha, Dragon of Order, and Urgash, Dragon of Chaos.
Asha gave birth to the six elemental dragons: Elrath, Malassa, Sylanna,
Arkath, Ylath and Shalassa.
After the conflict and formation of the world, the two creator dragons faded
away, and the six elemental dragons were bound beyond the veil, only able to
appear in the world as spirits and visions.
Sar-Elam was a mortal wizard who managed to reach enlightenment and contact the
consciousness of Asha, becoming the immortal Dragon-Sage.

Dogma
Followers of the Immortal Dragon Spirits believe in an endless cycle of Life,
Death, and Rebirth. An opportunity to for all to live, learn, and ascend to
enlightenment. One of the greatest sorrows of this faith is for someone to be
stricken from the wheel, to be lost, and lose all chance of rebirth.
Asha renders the fate of all mortal beings—she spins forth their destiny upon
their birth, measures it throughout their time in the physical world, and then
embraces their life force upon death. Asha is neutral; she shows favor to
neither good nor evil men. She does not bless any race above another, all
stand before her in equal measure, much like she's does to her children. She
does, however, hold her insane twin brother, the Dragon of Chaos, in eternal
disdain and is opposed to the principles that drive both him and the demons,
the beings he created to oppose her own.
Tenets Of The Faith
- All are equal in the Eyes of Asha.
-
Assist all in fulfilling their purpose, set chaos into form and give meaning
to potential.
- Care for the world, it is our mother and our father.
- Demons and Fiends are the enemies of Order.
