No, I want people to be Brave on their own. It means nothing if something else is doing it for you. You have to overcome you fears yourself.

i'll just have to make it warp their mind, so they recieve horrid hallucinations

Actually, i could be making really cool alliances using disease, because not all diseases HAVE to kill......

I've rid my warbands of fear, and by extension, bravery. While they conquer they shall spread fear and encourage bravery in their foes, but when they conquer everything there shall be no fear and no bravery, only a better world under my rule. Disease shall die out, lust and perversion will not be a neccesity for survival, the dragons shall become pets, the shoggoths servants, the Chaos Creatures shall be friends of the warbands, the world shall be united under the rule of my strongest champion Carolus, and only the Dwarves will be safe from their conquest.

What is stopping any random devil/god/fae from just killing off your entire warbands

Gods cannot do actions outside their spheres

I like the part where you casually mention making sentient races "pets".

Generally gods can only work miracles within their domains, devils have more freedom but are only really powerful in their own domains, fae are weak as hell but can use magic on just about anything.

They are dragons, they can't be trusted and so must be broken as pets. Would you rather they go extinct?

Create Race: Wyvern (Dragons)

Biology: -Extremely resistant to different weather and temperature extremes.
           - Livespan is effectively immortal but they can in a sense die if enough physical damage is done.
           - A dragon can not truly die but temporary removed from this plane of existence.
           - Extremely resistant certain types of magicks and physical damage
           - Also has the ability to fly

Death: When a dragon dies its' essence is actual disperse throughout the planet. A dragon a be revived by using a complex ritual or by another dragon.

Language: Their language has a limited physical effect on the world. For example if they want to breath fire they have to say the necessary words for it.

Culture- Dragons are quite aware of other gods existence and even able to sense the influence of other gods on the lesser races. Dragons don't actually worship other deities but they will make pacts with them if it suits their goals.
Where does it say anything about distrust?

Don't listen to him; he's futhering his own goals. It's cheaper to corrupt another's dreams than to make your own.
Wyrm, both me and azaroth are wasting power just to do nothing. We can just settle this conflict to where we don't waste resources.
Or not.
You just dont want us having any power. Pot calling the kettle black "He's furthering his own goals."
I never said I wasn't. I merely told the truth--you're self-interested.
I am too, but my interest is trying to make the world a better, more civilized place.
We are all self-interested, but at least his plans are in the open
I cannot tell what the hell you're trying to do beside rid the world of evil
Darn, my entire plan has been revealed.
Because at this point, I don't really have one. Aside from "Don't make everyone so angry they kill you."

I believe that Hitler said something similar, just before committing genocide...
You can find things similar to what Hitler said. Nice thing about being a God of Morality, doing evil stuff is a darn lot tougher.

If. And you forgot the Eladrin. And the Fae. And the demons. And the devils. And the other gods.
And me.

Not easily. I'm not sure if I've done anything related to my spheres yet...
