I'm posting the short version of the backstory here. The full thing can be found under the user-made literature section under the same name.  Knoldrin Humans leave Earth and find a new planet. They live in peace. Planet gets hit by asteroid. All life destroyed. Life re-evolves, bringing about several intelligent races, which find a solar-powered computer that survived the wreckage and are downloaded with all the knowledge of the human race, from languages to literature. The races are detailed further in post 8. Anyway, they live in peace, and a darkness begins to take hold of the land. An evil dragon named Nightwing comes from across the sea and tries to take over the world. Another dragon, Reyx Greatwind, challenges and stops Nightwing. Reyx falls unconscious and accidentally casts a sleep spell on himself that locks him up until evil threatens the land again. He wakes up a century (347 Earth years) later with no idea what is going on.  The Continent of Prox |

Awesome. Shall we begin?
Reyx stirred, groggy. It was dark, and he could see nothing, even after waiting for his eyes to adjust to the darkness. The last thing he remembered before losing consciousness had been tumbling through the icy ground of the mountainside and into a spacious cavern. Before he passed out, he had begun a spell of healing... and then blackness. He stretched - or tried to - but found that the cavern's walls were pressing in tight against him.
Strange, he thought. The cavern was much roomier before. What has gone awry...? He again tried to stir, this time with more strength, and heard a deep, rumbling crack as he forced his way upward. Still, blackness, and pressing stone. This time, he gave a mighty stretch, standing to his feet with all of his might, and he broke free of his confines with a thunderous crack of stone and ice from all around him. The sunlight was so bright to his eyes that he had to shield them from the sun until they grew accustomed to the light. He crawled from the depths of the now ruined cavern and perched upon the crest of the cliff he had just freed himself from, stretching and giving his body a good check. His wounds were healed; where they had been, fresh, brilliant scales had returned, and beneath them, fine golden lines of scar tissue showed themselves. He stretched his wings, which were feeling incredibly cramped. He felt like something must be wrong. For one, the healing spell he had used would not have left him with scars. For a second thought, he felt that he had grown in size, and most certainly in strength, since the spell. The only logical conclusion he could reach was that the spell had gone wrong and sealed him away for some reason. For how long, he had no clue.
He stood there soaking up the sun for some time before he decided to put some trust in his wings. He fell forward from the mountain face, wings catching the air easily, and he was off. After he hunted and regained most of his strength, he began a long journey, heading toward the capital city of Prox - Viistrom Dji. He wondered vaguely as he flew if he would see any of his old friends... if they were still alive in whatever time in which he found himself trapped.

Wolf glided along the air currents above the mountains, enjoying the light breeze. What a nice day.. he thought to himself. Right as he started to consider hunting, he heard a loud crack. And another, even louder. And finnally a crack so loud, he thought the mountains themselves would collapse. He decided to investigate the disturbing noises. As he flew to towards the source of the noise, drifting ever closer, he saw a dragon, a very large one indeed.. Who is tha- no.. it could not be.. "Reyx?" he called out. "Reyx could that possibly be you?"

Reyx's ears pricked up when he heard a familiar voice calling over the wind. He looked in the direction of the sound, and grinned. "Wolf, is that really you?" he asked. "I don't know what happened. The last thing I remember is falling after Nightwing was defeated... apparently, my spell went wrong." He shook his head, unsure.
"How long have I been - preoccupied?" he asked.

Wolf heard a screeching sound off in the distance. He glanced toward it only to be struck on the side by a smaller dragon. As the dragon tried to it's claws into him, he pushed himself backward and then launched himself at the enemy. (Jacob will you play this dragon? He's one your minions, I suppose.)

"Reyx, I could use some help here!" Wolf glided toward his target, and tried to bite down on the neck, but the smaller dragon rolled out of the way just in time.

((Heh. Yeah, Jacob, you have to play your minions. And Nightwing has many, many minions.))
Reyx bellowed in surprise as Wolf was buffeted by the smaller dragon that had appeared from nowhere. Had they gone wild since he had been sealed away? Or was this some new trickery, some new evil?
Reyx launched himself from the cliffside, racing toward the attacker.
"I guess that'll have to WAIT," Reyx said, releasing a golden jet of flames at the smaller dragon, carefully aiming away from Wolf.

"Thanks" Wolf grunted as he released his own jet of blue flames against the attacker.

"No!" Wolf yelled. He lunged himself at the attacker, fire pouring out of his mouth, and his claws out and ready. He swiped his claw at his oppenent.

((Oh boy.))
Reyx narrowly avoided a slashing attack by a shadow demon-type creature. He instantly recognized it, and his eyes widened.
"It can't be," Reyx hissed, watching the creature with distaste and hatred burning in his silver eyes - not for the creature, but for the beast that he knew was its creator.
"Nightwing," he hissed, voice barely above a whisper. With a mighty slash of his muscled neck, the shadow creature was bitten cleanly in two, evaporating into black mist when it was vanquished.
"Wolf," Reyx said to his comrade. "This is bad. And it's going to get worse."
"Nightwing, the Foul One, is not dead after all."

"But Reyx.. that's.. that's impossible! Improbable!" Wolf almost whispered his next sentence. "You know what this means don't you?
