Spoilers below for A1-HP8 "Judgment"

In the Living Arcanis campaign, most PCs were the Champions of Light. In the canon story of the Legends of Arcanis, we learned in the Crusade story arc about the official Champions of Light. Many of them and their progeny are dead, but not all. We also learned that the official story is that those Champions were responsible for freeing the Dragon Villa’tavorentes from its imprisonment.

If Count Felix val'Ossan and the two non-human survivors of the Champions were gathered together, how would Villa’tavorentes react? Do the two non-humans still live? Do they have progeny? Did Felix inherit via blood his father's incredible dragon-given power? Could they stand against Villa’tavorentes? Would even their mere appearance give Villa’tavorentes enough pause for another sufficiently planned and adequately powerful strike to succeed?
[These are rhetorical questions. We can speculate but not really know the answers.]

We also know of items made by the Kumatir Frost Giants from the scales and talons of the Dragon. These items are magical only when within about 40 miles of the dragon.

If I were to plan to potentially fight the Dragon, I would involve Felix and try to find the others, and also learn what of the Dragonsblood power is still within them. I would also find some of these semi-magical draconic weapons and armor to use to detect the dragon's presence. I would advise anyone else to do the same.

Only 40(ish) years have passed since these events. Many of the human PCs and most of the val would still be alive from this time period, merely retired. Certainly their offspring (where applicable) would be alive.

In the aforementioned adventure, we learned that all the human-kin adventurers are dead, and their only known surviving progeny is Count Felix val'Ossan, former leader of the Irregulars in the Sixth Crusade of Light. We also learned that there were two non-human adventurers who might still be alive and might have children of their own.
