Editing Dray (section)

=Fourth Edition=
[[Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition]] saw a big step up for the dray, in that they actually got mentioned in the core campaign setting book. They didn't get unique stats, though, as players were instead told to just use the [[Dragonborn]] stats for them, which was convenient, but not exactly the best fit lorewise.

They got slightly different lore in this edition, in that they were created by the [[Sorcerer-King]] Dregoth before he became Athas' only ever [[Dracolich]]; he banished most of them from his city-state of Giustenal for being "imperfect", and those few specimens who were allowed to stay and propagate were ultimately forced to flee into the wastes with their banished kinsfolk when the other Sorcerer-Kings showed up and annihilated Giustenal. They now survive as small, scattered tribes and family groups that roam the harsh wasteland, remembering little save that their creator turned on them and cast them away - they have no idea as a collective that Dregoth still survives as an [[undead]] [[Athasian Dragon]], and they don't actively serve him. Most are ruthless [[mercenary|mercenaries]], and they often pursue the paths of the [[slavery|slave trader]] and/or [[Defiler (Dark Sun)|Defiler]], arguing that the former is repayment for the crueltly that the world has shown them and justifying the latter by the simple paradigm that only power matters.
