LORE

Long, long ago, the first being crawled out of a hole. He was a pony, by the name of Chronodocious. He was the first being to lay foot on Eqa (The name of the world in MLP, in this lore.), and the first in his universe. His brothers and sisters came out soon after him - Ellie, Mistress of the Elements, the first Griffon. Tremorhoof, King of Stone, the first Minotaur. Pyris, the Molten Lord, the first Dracon. Pyris' offspring evolved into two races - The dragons and the drakons, but the dracons were the original. Nyx, the Nightmare Queen, the second pony and creator of the Nightmare forces. They wandered the world together, questioning their origins, and their purpose.

The Dagus At'al bore upon them. The Dagus At'al are the supreme forces in KoS, the equivalent of gods, representing order. However, after a slaughter at the hands of their only rival, The Deathless Lord, Dracolich, they were weakened immensely. They offered the first beings powers beyond their wildest dreams - Mastery of Time (Chronodocious,) Mastery of the Elements (Ellie), Lordship of the World (Tremorhoof), Power over Fire (Pyris,) Dominion over the Night, (Nyx.) They accepted, and became the Ancients - Mistakenly called Titans, in the time of KoS, and forgotten in the era of MLP.

Eventually, they all settled in, and created species in their own image. However, with the discovery of electricity, the industrial revolution began. They were more advanced then humans will be for millions of years, although they separated and tried to hoard as much knowledge as possible. Fast forward a few thousand years, and a pony by the name of Achos was born. He was corrupted, nay, tainted by dark magic as ancient as time and twice as powerful as it's lord, now known as Chaos Magic. He used it to "improve" himself, and went on a slaughterfest - Harvesting parts for him to use as his own. He became a mismatched being with extreme power, a Draconequus.

This attracted the attention of The Dagon At'al, the chaotic rivals of The Dagus At'al. Their leader, Eris, offered Achos even more power, the power of the combined Dagon At'all, to cause extreme chaos. He did as such, but in order to accept this power - He had to kill his only love. When that dark deed was done, the  Dagon joined Achos, reconfiguring him into a being of extreme power - Discord.

The Ancients fought against Discord, but to no avail. When everything had been slaughtered at his hand, aside from Chronodocious - Chronodocious played his trump card. All the dead were resurrected, and beings of extreme power became Alicorns. He died with the effort. The leader of the alicorns, Discord's fallen love, became Accord. The Ancients became the New Ancients, or the New Gods. Discord claimed the title of Titan. He then created his children, mutated beings in his own image, created from alicorn corpses. Eventually, he was sealed away by the New Gods,  but at the sacrifice of Accord. Varmix and Titanius took her place, years later.

However, as both the Dagus and Dagon At'al were gone, The Deathless Lord was able to break free. His power is growing, and he has malicious intent.

A DRAKON'S BODY

Each drakon is a type, designed for one specific thing.

Their scale color also affects them, along with their eye color and magic color.

Let's go over some types.

The most common types of each body part are Magus, Brutalis, and Aeris. Magic, Strength, and Speed.

Speed types are thin and light, as to move faster. Their bones are hollow, and their wings are feathered. (Note: That's only if their wings are Aeris type!) But, they're elastic. They can take a hit and bend further without breaking.

Strength types are thick and heavy, to prevent them from being knocked back. They are also rebuilt to be 50% drakonite at birth, refined metal fused with crystal and mana deep within the mines of Mt. Cathool, a drakon mine deep underneath the everfree. This is done because otherwise the bones are simply too heavy, and drakonite is oddly much lighter.

Magic types are rare, because they are no naturally born magic types. In the case of Tempest, he was a Strength type until he broke the shield preventing escape, which changed his bone and physical structure to be lighter, somewhat hollow, and each bone fuctions as a magical storage device. Tempest, as of Sun and Moon, can store the equivalent of 187 megaliths (The equivalent of lifting an ursa major for four minutes, although it would still take a long time to generate that much energy, and would be difficult to apply. Twilight can store 200 megaliths in compare.)

Tempest's is a Magus, as mentioned before.

Strong-Red and King Bellum are Speed.

Ista and the unnamed drakon are both Strength.

MAGICAL WORKINGS/u]

Magic. Oh diddly fiddly I've been wanting to talk about this since I've began the story.

MAGIC. It originates from the core of Eqa, which is where the corpse of an ancient Dagus, the first Dagus and first Dagon lie, buried in magma. The magma and their corpses both generate energy, and are broadcast into the world via an interconnecting nearly impossible to detect network of crystals all around Eqa. These are known as Leylines.

So, that's where magic comes from. The corpse of two dead gods and some heat.

But how do people store magic? Well, when Eqa was created by the Dagus and the Dagon, the surface was covered in crystals. In a war against the Dagus and the Dagon, and later The Deathless Lord the crystal turned into powder that fused to the bones of the first beings, and transmitted down to their children, and their children childrens, etc.

Bones are covered in some of this powder, and can be used to store power, which are measured in liths. 1 lith is 1 minute of lifting a pound with telekinesis. A megalith is 7000 liths. A gigalith is 7000 megaliths. The beings with the most energy storage include Accord, Discord, Deathless, and the Dagus/Dagon. There are more beings that will be added to this list. In comparison -

Deathless - 80,000 tetralith (560,000,000 liths)

Dagus/Dagon - 40,000 tetralith, all combined, both Dagus and Dagon. (280,000,000 liths)

Discord - 20,000 tetralith, combined force of the Dagon (140,000,000 liths)

Accord - 5,000 tetralith (28,000,000 liths) The reason why Discord fears Accord is because her magic is 17x effective against Discord, and twice as much because she's an alicorn.

NMM - 100 Tetralith (2,800,000 liths)

Celestia - 50 Tetralith (1,400,000 liths)

Luna - 50 Tetralith (1,400,000 liths)
