Novian dragons are a civilized race Native to the hollow desert planet of Noviax

Life style:
Novian dragons aren’t exactly “space explores” so most of them never leave their home world, but because of their planet’s placement it's often visited by travelers who come to rest and relax, some of the more brave dragons leave with those travelers. Novian dragons are fairly peaceful and focus mostly on studying their alien visitors and their technology or trade items with said aliens. Most Novian dragons prefer to stay out of conflict but will fight if it’s their last option.

Home Planet:     
The Novian dragon home world is mostly a desert planet, their capital city; Starforge City is built around the largest sinkhole that leads to the forest like insides of the Planet, Outside the city are smaller less developed towns where Novians who can't afford to live in the city reside.
In the huge caverns of the planet lies an entirely new jungle like ecosystem, full of tall fruit trees, bioluminescent mushrooms and deep river caves full of fish

Religon:
The novian's used to pray to a being they called "the great spirit" or "The great spirit of the hunt" and used to leave offerings or pray at small shrines made of crystals and hides from the caves before hunts or harvests. Most Novian's however don't worship their deity anymore, only a few handfuls and the Hunting guild still do.

The Hunting Guild:
they were formed originally to protect settlements from wildlife and to provide food for them. but eventually Zarin hired them to cull Infected creatures and making them up their numbers to be more effective (most she hired don't even follow the guild's code and are deemed "rouge hunters")

Guild's Code
Only hunt out of need or defense
Only hunt what is needed for your community or family
Do not waste anything, use every part of the beast you can
Give thanks to the Great spirit after every hunt and leave a small offering at it's shrine

Powers: 
Unlike most dragons, Novian dragons don’t have breath attacks
