The precious gems and metals of the earth made their way through the ground, slowly oozing out onto the surface of the earth, where they proceeded to converge and mold themselves into the shape of a person. From the mass grew arms and legs, with the body morphing into that of a female human, and it also manifested a long, thin black dress. The being opened her eyes, her star sapphire eyes taking in the first sight of the sky. Getting up and taking in the rest of her surroundings, she uttered her first words, "[color=gold]Wow... what a wreck of a world to wake in. I see I have my work cut out for me.[/color]" 

Koine raised a hand to snap her fingers, her body then changing colors and remolding itself as she took on a form more resembling a human. Now that she had the proper form for her work, she could begin. Raising a hand, she raised a pillar of sand to head height, then began sculpting it, giving it a humanoid shape. Unlike a human, however, Koine made them a more serpentine shape, adding to its height, and gave them a few more reptilian features such as scales and clawed fingers. Their heads featured long scouts and short tendril-like whiskers on its nose. On their back were large wings, and they had pointed antlers that extended backwards. At last, Koine thought it was ready. With that one as the template, Koine began to create more sculptures resembling the first, but had stark features that differentiated them from the others. With each sculpture, Koine added a drop of her golden ichor, which spread throughout their bodies and held them in place. 

Finally, Koine believed them to be ready. With a snap of her fingers, several dozen sculptures were transformed into flesh and blood, birthing the new race of the Loong. Their draconic forms were gone, replaced by a more human-like appearance. However, they still possessed short horns, large wings, more canine teeth, and a long forked tongue. Koine greeted them, "[color=gold]Welcome, Loong. There is much work to do, and I expect all of you to fulfill your duties. Rest assured you will be safe as long as I am present, and you will all be paid accordingly to your performance.[/color]" Koine stomped her foot, forcing three items to pop out from the sand. Catching them between her fingers, she held them up to reveal a gold, silver, and copper coin, all of which featured the general shape of the side of her face on one side and the shape of the Loong's tail on the other. "[color=gold]With that, you are dismissed. Now then, you should all get to work.[/color]" The Loong, with not much else to do, got set to work creating shelters and finding food. Meanwhile, Koine released more of her power into the world, having more plants and greenery growing nearby, and ensuring there were resources to collect and process.

[hider=Summary]
Koine is born, and gets set to work creating her workforce: the Loong. 

Loong have two forms, the first of which resemble the Chinese dragons. They have more serpentine bodies and walk comfortably on four limbs, but can also walk bipedally. They have tough scales, clawed fingers, webbed hands and feet, and backwards-curving antlers. They have long snouts with skin-covered whiskers. 

They also have a humanoid form in which they look very similar to humans, with some differences. They still have wings, smaller backward-extending horns, more canine teeth than a human, and a long forked tongue. 

Koine ordered them to work, creating a settlement of Loong near the coastline, with promises of payment based on performance. She also makes sure there are resources to work with by terraforming the nearby environment to have more greenery.
