Introduction
 
Everyone thought Braniyack Draco-Ember was a crazy nutball. He had always been interested in trying to create other dimensions. The only person who did not think he was crazy was his longtime assistant, Maggie Devilsthirst, who would later become his wife. Braniyack was a very special man who had been interested in dimensional science for as long as he could remember. When Braniyack was a young adult he tried to transfer his body into the cyberspace dimension, but it failed miserably. During this experimental test there was a horrible malfunction that left half of his body altered and deformed. His assistant, Miss. Devilsthirst, happened to be studying robotic engineering at the time and decided she could use Braniyack as her first test subject. Miss. Devilsthirst used her engineering abilities to fix the deformities and turned him into a friendly cyborg scientist. Little did he know, he would become much more than a scientist. This is the origin story of the Draco-Ember Riders.
 
Part One
The Letter
 
Long after Braniyack and Maggie got married and had their honeymoon they had two babies. One day while Braniyack was asleep he woke up to his sons crying, he immediately had a feeling that something bad had happened to his wife. When he noticed she wasn’t next to him, Braniyack went looking for her at his secret lab. When he was walking past one of his portal's entrance, he noticed Maggie’s journal on the ground. He was absolutely terrified because he wasn’t sure where this portal led or why Maggie was inside, so he decided to read her journal for a clue. On the first page Maggie wrote an entry to Braniyack:
 
Dear Braniyack,
 
When I was in the secret lab, I saw a piece of paper that had the coordinates to the unknown dimension you have been working on. I was very curious and keyed them into the computer interface. All of a sudden, a long mucky substance came out of the portal and dragged me in! I had been walking for hours when I discovered some unknown, strange mythical creatures that looked like demons. One of the demons spoke in an unknown language and gently pulled me by the hand to his prince’s castle. This demon was the only one that seemed to be nice. When we got to the castle, the demon introduced me to his prince and he quickly exclaimed that there was a rebellion going on to defy the evil king. The king was taking over the demon dimension and would soon try to take over the human dimension and all other dimensions after. The prince described a prophecy to me. The prophecy said: “One day there will be two powerful kings from another world gathering an army and they will call themselves Draco-Ember Riders. The riders will be able to tame any creature or powerful weapon and protect all dimensions from the evil king” I was shocked! I told the prince that our last name is Draco-Ember, and then the prince was shocked! In that moment he handed me two viles. He told me that the viles were an important part of the prophecy and I needed to get them safely to you, and only you. After giving me the viles, he looked closely at my entire body and noticed something about me. He told me in his odd crackly voice that I was aging backwards rapidly, and I didn’t have long to live. He said, “You better hurry and get these to your husband, this is extremely important!” I was so terrified, the only thing I could think to do was run. I ran away from the castle towards the portal entrance as fast as I could, and my body started to shrink. when I realized I wasn’t going to make it through the portal, I stopped for a moment to write you this letter, in a hidden compartment of this journal you will find the two viles. Protect the prophecy and stop the evil king from taking over our world and all other worlds. I love you and I will miss you.
 
Sincerely,
Maggie Devilsthirst
 
Part Two
The Beginning of the Prophecy
 
Back in the lab, Braniyack was extremely sad to know his beloved wife and best friend in science was gone, but after reading the letter he was also filled with understanding. He knew the fate of his dimension and all other dimensions was his responsibility, so he turned to the back of the journal and found the hidden viles. He opened the first and it contained a mini scroll with words written in an unknown language, he wasn’t sure how, but he was able to understand the writing and realized it was an incantation. Before reading it aloud, he decided to open the second vile which contained a mini scroll, one god-like scale, and one god-like tooth. The scroll in the second vile told him to hold the scale in one hand and the tooth in the other and read the incantation on the first scroll aloud. Immediately after finishing the incantation he fell to the floor and passed out. He woke up the very next day, at first glance it seemed like nothing had happened, but actually something very out of the ordinary had happened. Braniyack looked at the floor and saw that he had scales on his arms, legs, and feet. He remembered reading on the second scroll that the changes to his body would be experienced and could only be seen by him and the chosen Draco-Ember family. When he went to check on his two sons, he saw that they too were exhibiting the changes on their bodies. Even though they were just babies, Braniyack saw constellation like marks on their foreheads and arms. Braniyack began to feel an inner excitement and was feeling incredibly powerful, so he did what he knew best and went to his lab. While working, Braniyack began to notice that he was becoming more intelligent every minute and he used one of his inventions that he had been working on - The Future Viewing Glasses, or, T.F.V.G. to help figure out what he was supposed to do with his new abilities. The glasses guided him to create a third invention called The Magic Gauntlet, or, T.M.G., which allowed him to turn creatures, monsters, items, and spells depicted on any deck of cards, or any object placed on the Gauntlet, into reality. He built a button on the Gauntlet that, when pressed, sent him to another dimension, this dimension was called Cyberspace; he had been trying to get there for forty years – his entire adult life. He learned that through this dimension he could travel to or create other dimensions, which opened up a whole new world of opportunity, adventure, and quests. Braniyack realized that he had creation ability – the ability to imagine and create anything – this is what made him a Draco-Ember Rider. 

Braniyack was thrilled to finally be able to explore different dimensions; he had always dreamed of being able to escape earth and create his own universe. Little did he know an evil presence was lurking in the last dimension. This evil presence was the king the prince of the demon dimension warned Maggie about, and he was not alone, he had a dragon that was black as night and had the strength of two black holes combined. Braniyack Draco-Ember and his two sons were the Draco-Ember Riders, and their first battle was looming in their future.
