So there is a story here. First of all, this art is by the amazing  ahoge who indulged me on this.

So remember my kobold Duke (https://www.furaffinity.net/view/45602940/)? Well, I spent a lot of time thinking about his backstory. Like I said, he used to be a human noble, a descendant of a long line of warriors who were famed for riding into battle upon the backs of the draconic companions. But that was years in the past and recent family have long since dismissed their mounts. But, a cult seeking to nurture that power for themselves kidnaps Duke and his best friend Drake, to repurpose them for their nefarious plans! Through some misfortune, or possibly the quick acting of Drake, the ritual is interrupted but both Duke and Drake are for ever changed but forever bound by this magic.

So, Drake the Drake to accompany Duke Idris the Drakewarden Ranger. I am dying to play them in a DnD campaign sometime so we shall see.
