Draconia

Draconia was the home planet of the Draconians.

First Contact
The First Contact was an event in Draconian history during which a meteorite carrying a deadly alien micro-organism crash-landed on the planet four hundred years prior to the 27th century. The meteorite brought with it a deadly plague which killed nine in ten of the Draconian population. Some claimed that this is when Draconia's childhood ended. (PROSE: The Loyal Left Hand)

Second Contact
Years after the plague arrived a wandering explorer, known to the Draconians as Karshtakavarr, and his granddaughter made an uncontrolled landing on the planet and brought with them the knowledge to find a cure. In the aftermath the Draconians began repopulating their world and spread their children to other worlds ensuring that their race could never be brought so easily to extinction again. The Karshtakavarr had been the Draconian's first recorded interaction with intelligent life beyond their own world and so he was treated as a God by the people.

The Draconian Empress' youngest daughter befriended the Karshtakavarr's granddaughter and wanted to travel with them beyond the stars. The trio made preparations to sneak away in the middle of the night but were accosted by the Empress who stood up to the supposed deity and refused to give up her child even to a God. Legend had it that the Empress "kicked his arse" and that the Karshtakavarr "fought like a demon" before he and his granddaughter were driven away, with the Empress allegedly giving him a whack on the backside with her fan as he went. According to Vinaski, the Karshtakavarr's interaction with Draconia was the beginning of a hierarchy shift among the Draconians. Since then the female Draconians have taken a larger involvement in war and politics, training their daughters to fight and to secretly influence their spouses from behind the scenes.

Draconian-Mim war
At the beginning of the 27th century, the Draconian Empire attempted to take back the asteroid which housed the Braxiatel Collection. They found themselves at war with the Mim, until the Mim were destroyed by Hass. The Draconians, falsely accused for this crime, were blamed by all the galactic community. (PROSE: Nobody's Children)
