Dragonian Sentinels

A Dragonian Sentinel can vary. 'Sentinel' in English means 'Guard' so they are guarding something, however in Lehnalah, there is only one word for all the words below:


 * Sentinel
 * Warrior

Sentinel
A 'Sentinel Sentinel' is what the English language would consider a Sentinel. A Sentinel guards the village, stables, arena, and most importantly, Littles. Sentinels use staffs which are made out of their weapon of choice chosen during the Youngling Stage. As the choosing of being a Sentinel comes after they choose their weapon, the blacksmith takes the Youngling Dagger and reshapes it into a staff. The staff is pointed on one end and on the other decorated with stone dragons.

(The Lehnalah word for Sentinel is Halika, meaning 'Protector of the Younglings')

Warrior
A 'Sentinel Warrior' is what the English language would consider a Warrior. A Warrior takes the offensive, unlike the Sentinels, who stay back and protect. Unlike Sentinels, Warriors keep their original weapon of choice, and they ride dragons far more. Warriors tend to avoid interaction with Littles unless they are to train them. Sentinels are often chosen for mentors of the Kiha stage, while for a Warrior the only mentorship they would go through would be training a Little in the Apprenticeship stage, after choosing the Warrior Sentinel as an occupation.

(The Lehnalah word for Warrior is Ko'a, meaning 'Attacker' or 'Offense Taker')

Sentinel Apprentice
A Sentinel Apprentice is someone training for the occupation of a Sentinel. These apprentices train with staffs that aren't yet made from their Youngling Dagger. Every 6 months, at the start of either the Summer Season or the Winter Season, there is a championship held for Sentinel Apprentices. This event is held in every village. It reigns over 1-2 days, likely 1. After each Little has fought every other Little, the reigning winner is crowned Sentinel Apprentice Champion, and the Dragon Champion works side-by-side with this Sentinel Apprentice in order to guard the town.
