ALRIGHT so
It's the first era, dragons are still roaming the land, and Olaf One-Eye has Numinex trapped within Dragonsreach, a palace built around its prisoner. Now, we know that Numinex went mad in his isolation, and he died without ever escaping, as his skull hangs on the wall above the throne, but a dragon does not simply die of madness, and they certainly do not die of old age.
So it's no surprise that Numinex outlives his captor, and he sits within the walls of Dragonsreach for hundreds of years, a shell of the mighty beast he once was. Of course, the residents of Dragonsreach grow cautious and waring of their living trophy. They do not want him in the palace anymore, but they cannot set him free, else he would surely burn all of Whiterun to the ground, and killing a dragon, even a restrained one, is no easy feat. What would they do with the body of a dead dragon, anyway?
Enter the Dragonguard. Now, they had their tools, Dragonhorns that could pull a dragon out the sky, but what they really needed was a weapon. Something that could kill a dragon with ease, bring an end to the battle with minimal casualties. Which begged the question: could you enchant a weapon such a way that it could do great harm to the dov? It is known that only one with the soul of a dragon can truly defeat another dragon, so, theoretically, if one were to imbue an enchanted weapon with the soul of a dragon, would that not achieve their goal? Perhaps it would even allow them to bring an true end to the dov, without the need for a Dragonborn.
Well, there is only one way to find out, and Dragonsreach just so happens to have a dragon they're looking to be rid of.
I don't think I need say more than that. Were they successful? They certainly did find a way to bind a dragon soul to a blade, but it was a costly and dangerous process. Yes, Dragonbane is powerful against the dov, but the might of a dragon soul will bite back at any wielder lacking the power to control it, and it cannot devour the souls of others as they had hoped it would.
Is the consciousness of Numinex still in there, I wonder? Stuck in an eternal limbo between alive and dead? Perhaps it is best not to ponder on it too much, after all, what a horrible existence that must be.

Drakar och Demoner (“Dragons and Demons”) was published by Äventyrsspel (“Adventure Games”) in 1982, becoming Sweden’s first and biggest fantasy RPG, set in its own world of Ereb Altor.  The first edition began as a translation of Chaosium’s Basic Role-Playing and included anthropomorphic ducks borrowed from Glorantha and Runequest.  It has grown and changed through many editions over the decades.  The publisher rebranded as Target Games and introduced the dark fantasy realm of Chronopia in the ‘90s, later spun off into its own miniature wargame.  RiotMinds published several editions in the 2000′s, one translated as Ruin Masters in 2019.  In August 2022 Fria Ligan / Free League launched a new Kickstarter for an edition of Drakar och Demoner with an English translation as Dragonbane.

A Game of Thrones, Tyrion II
There were nineteen skulls.
The oldest was more than three thousand years old; the youngest a mere century and a half.
The most recent were also the smallest; a matched pair no bigger than a mastiff’s skulls, and oddly misshapen, all that remained of the last two hatchlings born on Dragonstone.
They were the last of the Targaryen dragons, perhaps the last dragons anywhere, and they had not lived very long.

Dragonbane Bestiary PDF (148pp) on DriveThruRPG
From cat people to chimeras, fairies to frog people, hippogriffs to hydras, and much more – this Bestiary for the Dragonbane roleplaying game includes no less than 63 wondrous creatures for the player characters to encounter. Each of them is brought to life in text and art, as well as a random encounter and a seed for a complete adventure. Among these fantastic beings, there are nine new playable kin, each with their own unique ability. Johan Egerkrans and David Brasgalla gloriously illustrate the full-color PDF.

"Free League’s reasoning for each fantasy game they release is different. In many cases, it’s also not hard to see that the genre has a lot of room for variety. That does make it a little interesting, though, when Free League acquires the IP for the grand-daddy of Swedish RPGs. As of 2021 they did make such an acquisition, and the result is out now in the form of Dragonbane." - Aaron Marks

This is dragonbane's restoration of the full fight scene choreography! You all know how much I love Connor's ass getting kicked by a couple of strippers. The whole performance was taken in one smooth shot! I'm so impressed at dragonbane and at the actors
