Creatures are the ancestors of dragons. They do not yet have the ability to breathe fire, but they can do anything else a dragon can do.

Dionys – have blue scales that shimmer in the sun. They were originally from the coast, living in both the sea and in the air. Their scales are hard and sharp. They are strong and powerful. Traditionally, all the royal family members who become Aeros bond with a Dionys creature. The Aeros and footsoldiers of their division dress in blue.

Attilan – are white and covered in razor-sharp feathers. They are strong and fast and blend well with the clouds. Though birdlike in appearance because of their feathers, they have massive jaws and teeth, much like a dragon’s. The Aeros and footsoldiers of their division dress in white.

Chrystha – have black, leathery skin, more like a reptile. Their wings have thin membranes and tear more easily. They were once smaller but were bred to increase their size. They are incredibly fast. The Aeros and footsoldiers of their division dress in black.
