The Devonians are goblin-like beings originating from the First Land.[1]
History
Background
The Devonians emerged as a distinct race in the Realm of Oni and Dragons, historically governed by the Devonian King in ancient epochs. Although their physical features may convey a sense of aggression, they are a benevolent race. Unfortunately, their appearance has led to widespread misconceptions and unfounded rumors among other inhabitants,[2] one of which falsely claims that the Devonians process Dragon Ivory into their food for battle, thereby enhancing their strength while simultaneously heightening their fury, despite the capability not being exclusive to them.[3] It is implied that the Devonians have access to and have knowledge of ancient languages, like writing, such as Zur who could translate an extinct language from the Book of Ceremonies.
At some point, a descendant of the Devonian King, Zur, became the Elemental Master of Reflex.
