A dragon chooses its rider.
Only a few are worthy. “Having the soul of a dragon” is an apt Avistani saying for individuals who show indomitable charisma, unfaltering purpose, and an iron will. Such qualities mark every drake rider, while a proud or noble dragon also demands respect from any who would ride upon their back. A dedicated rider who doesn't confuse violence with strength and shows no hesitation or fear earns a deep bond that grows from the dragon's mutual respect. In the air or on the ground, this bond forms a lethal union of dragon and rider.
