I have this whole premise typed out:

1000 years ago there was a terrible war on Valeroma. A war that ravaged the lands. This was not just a world war, it was a global war. It was a war between races, species. Dragons and humans, Elves and Dwarves. It destroyed everything we know. It destroyed the economy of every nation on the planet, it destroyed each government, each countries hospitals, everything. This war sent everyone back to third world technology, swords, shields, but no guns or anything. But it was finally over, and for 1000 years there has been mostly peace among all the inhabitants on Valeroma. Peace among the races and the species.
There is, however, a catch. See, there is always a catch when it comes to world peace. World peace can only last so long. There is an ancient prophecy, a prophecy that speaks of destruction, of chaos. It goes like this:

When the night is dark and the moon is red
Hatched will be a dragon of dread
Eyes like amber and scales like the earth
More than the world his head will be worth
The dragon of dread will be a shifter and more
The kind of monster you read of only in lore
He will seek to rule the last of his race
And make the whole world know of his face


This prophecy speaks of tomorrow night. There is going to be a blood red moon tomorrow night, speaking of the blood shed in that war so many years ago. This prophecy speaks of a terrible creature, a Dragon shifter. He has a dragon form, and a human form. He is extremely powerful. His name? Vaeros.
There was an evil in the world before the war, an evil that seeks to ruin this world, to make life miserable. And for a while, he succeeded. But it was only temporary. So in a last ditch effort, he prophesied about a dragon that would rule over everyone, just when they get comfortable in the new world they've built.
CDragons are the ones we set in charge to make sure the world is safe from war, seeing as they are the kindest, and the wisest, species on the planet. But one dragon will change this...and almost eliminate them.

But with every cursed prophecy, there is a light of redemption. This one? One guide, and a group of Six young men and women, of various races, chosen at the end of the unspeakable war. They are the only ones who will be able to stop Vaeros, together. Together, they will bring peace to the world. Together, they will end Vaeros' crusade.
Are you ready, chosen ones?

Chocolate and coffee are both made from beans.

I'm considering a dragon. Mostly because I've never played one. Do all dragons breathe fire in this world, or could I have, say... a water dragon?

Ive actually just okayed dragons to be played. Normally I say dragons are okayed as shifters, like my character is an elf/dragon shifter. I want to give you creative power. Doesn’t have to be fire. It can be water as well, or any element. Just make sure you balance out the weaknesses and strengths.

I’m going more into the depth of the history here soon, especially with races.
Dragons are technically considered the protectors of Valeroma. They are the ones designated to keeping us safe from harm, tyranny, war, Etc. They tend to be a little more pompous and egotistical than most.

@Bitterblue111 yes please! I've got a rough idea for a character but would like to see more info on the races first.

Also, what options are there for combat abilities? I tend to prefer ranger or druid like builds for fantasy settings but can certainly adapt as needed.

I've added you to the Cast list!

If you want magic, then an elf would be the best choice for you. I'm still working on it, I'm hitting a bit of writers block and I'm trying to work through it.

I'm allowing magic, with limitations. No one can have all powerful magic, and it has to have a cost. My elf-dragon shifter will be able to control plant life, and maybe be a mediocre healer when she sings. Her cost is exhaustion. If she does it too much without enough rest in between, then she could likely die in extreme circumstances. More likely, she'd just pass out for a few hours.

Hand to hand combat is also allowed. Swords, daggers, knives weapons like that, are all allowed.
As are Bows.
If you have another idea, let me know and we can discuss it. (:
Ranged weapons include bows. Bows are also allowed as well.

Again, if I don't have one that you're interested in and want to try, just let me know and we'll discuss i

I just realized that my description contradicted what was in the actual OOC part. So, I am changing this answer. Dragons will be one of the kindest and wisest creatures on the planet.

@Bitterblue111

Ok, so two character ideas from me:

Elf mage/fighter - fire themed spells, bow, and long sword for melee.
Having trouble coming up with spell consequences aside from legit burning her up. Which, could be an interesting trait; she'd had burn scars along her arms already, maybe charcoal'd flesh? Her clothes would have to be magically imbued to keep from searing off anytime she uses magic, thay sort of thing. Due to the painful ramifications of her magic, she took up physical combat skill sets so she wouldn't be 100% reliant on spells.

Dwarf fighter/barbarian - big "af" axe or warhammer (for a Dwarf), mildly armored, hit them hard so they can't hit back kind of vibes. if any magic ability is there it comes in the form of his/her primal rages (ie path of the beast 5e) consequences: tapping into this ability leaves lingering "beast marks" in the form of fangs/sharp teeth, extra hair/fur on body, or claws -- not sure if that borders too closely to how the shifters work though

Let me know you thoughts and/or if one of them fits better for the setting :)

I like both ideas, honestly.
With your elf idea, that would work as a consequence.
Shifters are able to completely change their form. Vivian is an elf/dragon shifter, one of the rarer ones. She was born from another dragon shifter and elf, so that’s where she got her shifting ability.
Dwarves are one of the magic races, but it’s very very rare. And it’s normally not very powerful magic either.

Decisions, decisions. Lol

I'm leaning a bit more towards the elf, tbh. I haven't played on in a while and a pyromancer sounds like fun. I'll build more on her when work calms down again

Based on your description, Kass would be considered a dragon shifter. Dragons only have the one form of dragon.
You can feel free to flesh her out if you would like(:
