Gem dragons on Krynn?
Many people have asked that if Dragonlance is supposed to be so centered around dragons, why aren’t there gem dragons in the world. In general, gem dragons don’t fit into the original concept of Krynn, so they weren’t included. Part of what makes Dragonlance so unique from other worlds is the fact that it is missing certain races. For the majority of these exclusions, there are logical and valid reasons. This is not to say that you can’t have gem dragons in *your* concept of Krynn, but be aware that your concept will be vastly different from everyone else’s and this topic has caused many tempers to flare up.
