Draknovi

The perennial group of Repulsive Reptiles that create trouble throughout Western Tanzanite, and one of it's most infamous factions., Draknovi are an organized group of merchants, mercenaries, and assassins, aligned with the light mages known as the Runic Arcana, often consisting of both Humans and Dragons alongside various assorted reptilian species such as the Komodo Dragon or the Dula Hydra.

Togetther they band together as treasure hunters seeking the most vaulable loot they can obtain, and merchants and business minded folk operating with one goal in mind, gathering money, with morals taking a backseat in the process.

Backstory
Originally starting as the Runic Arcana, an ancient tribune of Light Mages from thousands of years past, originating sometime around the The Proto Polemo, who sought to destroy demons, such as the ancient demoness Alama,

Many of them dissatisfied with the danger involved, slowly losing their altruistic nature, eventually using their magic to prey upon the weak rather than saving the weak, using their unstable abilities for their own gain.

What they do
Originally fighting demonic forces as the Runic Arcana, they new prey upon the weak as opposed to helping them, seeking as much treasure and money as they can get ahold of.

While not all of them are more corrupt than the demons they originally fought, a good example being Naomi Solstice, a good many of them are, including all of them that fall under the Administrator, or "Admin" ranking, hoping to use their power and magic to exploit all they encounter, or failing that, strong arming them with their powers and weapons, including the infamous Clockwork Shotgun.

Their signature method of making money, though far from their only one, is a creature known as the Arcana Mimic, a little mimic created by Rune Magic, with its contents completely randomized, and since Draknovi have control of the contents, they fill them with unwanted trash to pad out their contents, to get people with various addictive tendancies to spend all their money, from Silver Pieces to Gemstone Shards.


 * Locations

They only have a strong presence in Elyoria, Atakor, and Moghra in the Western regions of Tanzanite, with a minor presence in the middle Chrysoberyl and Zaon Canyons area, while having no presence in the far East regions.

Despite their lack of major coverage, they're one of the more infamous factions that dot the lands,

Weaponry

Originally a weapon created by the Union of Petroska, it is now heavily associated with the Draknovi in spite of being one of their least common tools.

* Diamond Sickle
