Darlantan

The fictional character of Darlantan is a Silver Dragon created by a fiction writer for the TSR publishing company, in the vastly popular Dragonlance series. The book is simply called The Dragons and is volume six of the expansion series Lost Histories put out by TSR after the incredible initial success of their first trilogy. The Dragons is a sister novel to another by the same artist called Kagonesti. Whereas the The Dragons book details three successive generations of Silver Dragons, and their interactions with evil chromatic Red Dragons, the Kagonesti book details individual Wild Elves and their struggle through the wars at the centre of the Dragonlance saga.
Darlantan is the main character introduced in the first story within the novel. The novel details the return of dragons of both good and evil to the fictional world of Krynn. The dragons are shown as they grow to have vastly different traits, all of which differentiate them from their brethren and in turn come to shown as traits not just of those individual dragons but of the different types as well. The novel expands somewhat to the other dragons but centres mainly on the antagonistic relationships between the red and silver dragons.
