Great Beast Codex · Recognized order 01

Auric Crown Dragons

Colossal dragon-like Great Beasts tied to creation, ancient paths of light, and the idea of sovereignty. Their territories are often defined by routes and radiance as much as by borders.

01 · Body & material

What is it made of?

One recorded Dragon appeared as a ridge of living gold. A single visible scale looked larger than a moon, and stars seemed to bend around the body. That was only the part visible in normal space; more of the creature may extend through Luminarch paths and other cosmic layers.

02 · Encounter

What happens when it enters history?

Auric Crown Dragons react strongly when luminous routes are damaged or disturbed. In one encounter, a broken Luminarch Thread and nearby relay lights answered the same quiet flame before the Beast changed course after hearing a commander's voice.
