Specifically the capitol, [[Helsdon]]. Sworn to drive back the [[Ancient Dragons]] of the [[Drakkar Territories]], the Chorus is filled with exceptionally talented fighters with a specialty in hunting dragons. Due to the [[Welles Theocracy]] aiding and worshipping the god [[Gladus]]. they have been hesitant to aid Welles in the [[Seven Speared War]]. They stand directly opposed to the [[Drake Knights]]. The Chorus refuse to wear helmets, instead lining their blades and armor with the horns of dead dragons. It is believed showing the human resolve during a fight with a dragon will weaken it. The Chorus revere the [[Sunwell]], drawing on its power for anointment and encouragement. The Chorus convenes within a large, star shaped building named the [[Culling Grounds]]. The name of the Chorus of Red Drakes seems counterintuitive to their purpose, but it was actually in reference to a mass murder of Red Dragons undertaken by ancient dragon slayers in the year 1239, known as the [[Scaled Gasp]]. It is said the red dragons of ancient times wailed for days over the loss of their comrades.
