Origins of the Order

Milo Obilic, a Serbian knight, had created the secret order of the Dragon of Saint George. His shield represented the sun with twelve rays and there were twelve knights, himself included, belonging to this order. As a distinctive sign, they wore a dragon on their helmet. The aim of the order was the death of the Ottoman Sultan Murad I.

On June 15, 1389, at the Battle of Kosovo, Milo made his way into the Ottoman camp on the pretext of being a deserter, forced his way into the Sultan's tent and stabbed him to death. Obilic was later executed together with all other Serbian prisoners by Murad's son, Beyazid I.

Only one of the twelve knights of the Dragon survived. He later became a trainer of Serbian prince - Despot Stefan Lazarevic. Lazarevic was the son and heir to Lazar, the Serbian prince who died at the Battle of Kosovo. He was also the first European-style knight in Serbia. Stefan became a vassal of Hungary and a knight of a special order, so when Sigismund created the Order, Stefan was the first on the list of members.

The Modern Order - Ordo Draconi

Ordo Draconi is a People First Guild that is comprised of Knights of Integrity and Honor. We value Loyalty, Trust, and the Chivalric Attributes. It is our goal to make Cenarion Circle a better place and to practice our arts to the best of our abilities-never sacrificing the human element to achieve our goals and objectives. We work together as a team to level, raid, perform quests, and engage instances. We do not pressure members to participate in all functions but we encourage open communication and the formation of many friendships. We hold Order Gatherings monthly and we have a secret guild meeting location-Insula of Extraho.
