Further to Peter's post on Sun Dragon:

As the founders of the Praxian Sun Dome Temple are said to have come from a Sun Dome Temple in Dragon Pass in 877 ST, while the Golden Dragon became Emperor of Dara Happa in 878 ST following many years of increasing success in the South (NB!), it seems likely that:

  1. Old Sun Dome includes scaled-and-clawed Sun Dragon aspects (as this represented mainstream Dara Happan religion at the time it was built): this is the ruined temple described in Sun County p.112ff.
  2. Modern Sun Domers in Prax are still friendly to the (very few) worshippers of Sun Dragon, such as Windwhistler the Wyrm from Balastor's Barracks/Griffin Gate (cf. Big Rubble for stats).
  3. Dara Happans, OTOH, consider the Sun Dragon a perverse heresy and would *love* to persecute any remnants of it they can find.

Best source for info. would of course be PCs who complete the Old Sun Dome adventure and find e.g. scaly carvings or an outright Sun Dragon statue in area 4) of Old Sun Dome (not very detailed in the existing adventure). Then the Dara Happan Inquisitor specialising in the Draconic Heresy can arrive in Prax... and we have another reason why Sun Domers might join Argrath (noted EWF revivalist) rather than the (Solar) Lunars, come the rebellion.
