Sorcerer
As descendants of the dragonkin of Aegraya and the Great Chromatics of The Summer Land, sorcerers are born with innate magical powers. Of all the Chromatic breeds who propagated among humanoids, reds were by far most prolific. Tostrasz the Enormous alone was rumored to have over 100 half-humanoid progeny.
The most powerful sorcerers are three to four generations removed from the Great Chromatics. Anthroposcopic features such as yellow eyes, scales, and sharp features often betray a sorcerer’s origins. As such, those who are without an innate ability to obscure such features are often viewed as outcasts, just the same as if they were half-dragons or dragonborn.
Maer is a cliff-side, coastal colony found east of Vaskil on the other side of the Spine. There, the drakebloods live free from persecution of the Pressonians who remember all too well the War of the Burning Plain.

Drakebloods in Omeria
Humanoids who possess draconic blood come in three variants. The actual children of dragons and humanoids are half-dragons. Second generation drakebloods are dragonborn. And third-generation drakebloods are humanoids who have a proclivity to sorcery (for example, a human with the draconic bloodline sorcerous origin). Although, it’s rare for fourth-generation drakebloods to possess sorcerous power, it’s not impossible. Beyond fourth-generation, the bloodlines run too thin.
