Aegor I Dragomyr 'the Strong' was the founder of the prestigious Dragomyr dynasty. It is said he built the shining city of Drakonia with his own hands and molded it together in dragon-flames. He is also purportedly the first person to have found and hatched dragon eggs.
History
Little is known of Aegor I, and some scholars argue he never even existed. Others say he was a deity, who descended down to earth and started the Dragomyr dynasty (supporters of this theory tend to be Dragomyrs or Drakonians), and even others say he was a real man, but a mortal one, who just happened to accomplish enough for him to be recognized as a legend. The typical stance on Aegor I today is that he was real, but not quite the man he was described to be.
He was born in the Age of Legends, probably somewhere near or on the Drakonian peninsula. His early life is shrouded in mystery, but most legends state he grew up as a noble in the tribes of Drakonia, and united them by the time he was 18. He found dragon eggs and raised several dragons, the main one being Gavarex, who was puported to be the most powerful dragon to ever exist. He then started his life-long project, the city of Drakonia, and finished and hardened the city's walls with dragonfire. Later on, the tribes he united, now kingdoms in their own right, began to grow distant from Aegor, but he continued to rule always. Few questioned him directly, and there were no internal wars during his time as king.
When he was approaching old age, Aegor heard of a clutch of dragons in the mountains of Doras Edrossi. He mounted up on his dragon Gavarex, and was never heard from again. It is not known if he found the dragons, or if there ever were dragons to be found. After he left the throne, Drakonia abdicated to House Varalys until it fell, only to be revived in the First Era.
