The War of Many Names was the second realm-wide, centuries-long war against Tiamat the Dragon Queen, after her return in 795PR, and the countless Dragons she had been raising for nearly a millennium on the island of Kiston. The War lasted so long, and evolved on so many fronts, that it is still highly debated whether it should be treated as one very big war, or broken up for the distinct wars that rose and fell over the centuries.

Tiamat's Armies

Tiamat enlisted the full force of the dragons in Kiston, as well as unlimited supplies of draconic armies, pulled from sources still unknown. For ground attacks, Tiamat used both Draconians and Draco-Orcs. Draco Orcs were reserved mostly for operations closer to their homeland of Kiston.
