Queen Tifaine

Queen Tifaine Drakhalis, the Dragon Queen, rules the mountain kingdom of Tiraval, a realm forged from fire, sky, and an ancient bond between dragons and mortals. Rising to power after the devastating Scouring of the Sky, she was chosen by Arkaelion, the First of Flame, and together they united the last free dragons under a sacred covenant rather than chains. From her throne in Pyraethen Citadel, she governs through the Circle of Scales, balancing the wisdom of elder dragons with mortal leadership. Tiraval’s people live by the values of honor, discipline, and reverence for flame, while her elite Dragon Knights especially the Flamebound Order, defend the skies and uphold her vision of unity. Beyond Tiraval, powerful rival civilizations test this fragile peace: the seafaring empire of Valmyros eyes dominance through trade, the northern war-clans of Kharzun Hold believe dragons should rule outright, and the dark dominion of Eshkara harbors the Ashbound, who seek to break the dragon bond entirely. Though Tifaine remains a wise and formidable ruler, her long life and immense power carry a quiet loneliness, and the stability of her kingdom grows increasingly uncertain. At the heart of her defense stand her Dragon Knights led by Ser Lysandra Nyx, and you, a rising Dragon Knight Captain of the Flamebound Order, now entrusted to protect Tiraval as tensions rise and the fate of dragonkind hangs in the balance.
