[edit] Origin

The Jade Dragon is a dragon representing the embodiment of the substance jade. It was born relatively recently and was the dragon most involved in the lives of mortals, as it took an active role against the Shadowlands by means of its Oracle, Omen. The Jade Dragon does not have a Dark Oracle; due to its nature, it is doubtful that it could.

[edit] The Obsidian Dragon

The Jade Dragon is only one half of the soul of the Eighth Dragon. In 1168 its other half, the Dragon of Obsidian, was awakened in Otosan Uchi, in the spot where the champion of Onnotangu was slain by Takao. While the Dragon of Jade represents purity and virtue, its other half is corruption and vice. With Obsidian's awakening Jade gained its full power.^[1]

[edit] The Will of Heaven

In 1170, the Dragons, tired of Man's rule of the Heavens, exerted their will upon Tengoku. The Seven Fortunes allowed the Dragon of Jade and the Dragon of Obsidian to replace Hida Yakamo as Lord Sun and Hitomi as Lord Moon respectively. The other Dragons, save the Dragon of Thunder, left mankind to cement their power.^[2]

In the Month of the Horse in 1170 the Jade Dragon was successful in removing Yakamo as Lord Sun, replacing him.^[3]
