For centuries dragons have been such a target of prejudice that it has driven the poor creatures to the point of near extinction. The few that survived the era of brave knights in search of fame, or the groundless accusations of spurned “damsels in distress,” have attempted to integrate into the mainstream of society by utilizing the one historical skill at which they excel.
The flame which originates from the belly of a dragon, can only be extinguished by the dragon who breathed it into life. This preternatural blaze will also consume all other natural fires that exist within its close proximity. The combination of these effects make dragons the perfect firefighter. A single torch, lit with dragon fire, when properly tossed, can extinguish a veritable conflagration with ease.
As natural as they are in the firehouse, unfortunately, they are not very good sportsmen. Those few firehouses that can find, and employ dragons often stock checkerboards in reserve, because dragons are just as likely to turn the playing surface to ash, then to admit defeat in the traditional fireman avocation.
