This dragon has been looking for a clan to call home. They are very Wind-attuned and are looking to fill a role as a Wind Flight representative or something similar. Here is how you can help!
Each day you will be given a different creative challenge (there are 6 challenges total), and the person who scores highest overall will win the [b]G1 Wind dragon, fully gened according to their ideal scry[/b]! Entries will be judged partly on aesthetics, and partly on the uniqueness/creativity of the descriptions.

[b]Lore:[/b][/center]
Anemone’s first experience of the lands beyond The Windswept Plateau was through wind.
Later she had come to understand that as much as the Windsinger claimed dominion over the wind itself, any wind that past through the lands of the other deities absorbed a trace of their power. As a hatchling, she only understood that some winds, not all, but some, carried stories in strange scents and sounds, and sometimes, a flicker of power that would make her feathers stand on end. As she grew older and studied the history of Sornieth she realized she was catching glimpses of other lands, and a trace of the other domains that bordered her home.

[b]Tempest:[/b][/center]
Anemone has her eyes closed to focus on the breeze currently teasing her crest feathers and ruffling invisible fingers over her wings, so her first indication something has changed is the way the playful breeze seems to swell with a sudden rush of wind magic. Her antenna twitch and she catches the impression akin to the soft brush of a Skycat’s whiskers, a sort of playful curiosity directed towards her.

It was quite by chance the Sirocco ended up in the Tangled Wood. Following the wind wherever it went she was surprised when in the thick woods it petered out to the barest of breezes and then stopped all together. The woods were still, well as still as woods could be. Birds still chirped in the trees, small animals rustled in the undergrowth, but for once Sirocco felt lost.

Sirocco soared over The Twisting Crescendo, she was testing her wings. Soon she would leave on a journey to follow wherever the wind took her, and she wanted to make certain her wings would carry her. She kept to the outside, riding the swirling air currents.

There was no way this just happened. Not to her!
She was a wind sprite, after all. How could a simple blizzard have caught her off guard?
Tempest had been flying across the Frigid floes, mapping out each detail carefully, but when she reached the steep cliffs that form the floes‘ rim, an icy gust had taken her by surprise and ripped the oh-so-important document right from her hands.

After finishing her time the Ashfall Waste, Vinta the Calligrapher needed a new destination. Trusting in the Windsinger to guide her, she dropped a feather over a map of Sorneith. It landed on the Southern Icefield. Parthis, her Serthis colleague, protested - there was a reason no Serthis tribes lived in that frozen waste, he said - but she was quite firm. He didn't have to come with her, she pointed out. Parthis followed her anyway, although the Flamescale reserved his right to complain about the cold, which he did constantly.

Vinta entered the workshop, pushing through a simple curtain of beads. This was one of the inner chambers of the Cloudsong, and as such had no windows. It was illuminated by the soft pure light of some enchanted crystals. Candles, it was obvious, would be a disastrous risk: the room's walls were lined with cubbyholes and shelves, filled with scrolls and folios of paper, parchment, and other delicate materials. This was the Windsinger's personal library of maps.

Anemone’s first experience of the lands beyond The Windswept Plateau was through wind.
Later she had come to understand that as much as the Windsinger claimed dominion over the wind itself, any wind that past through the lands of the other deities absorbed a trace of their power. As a hatchling, she only understood that some winds, not all, but some, carried stories in strange scents and sounds, and sometimes, a flicker of power that would make her feathers stand on end. As she grew older and studied the history of Sornieth she realized she was catching glimpses of other lands, and a trace of the other domains that bordered her home.
Anemone has her eyes closed to focus on the breeze currently teasing her crest feathers and ruffling invisible fingers over her wings, so her first indication something has changed is the way the playful breeze seems to swell with a sudden rush of wind magic. Her antenna twitch and she catches the impression akin to the soft brush of a Skycat’s whiskers, a sort of playful curiosity directed towards her.
It was quite by chance the Sirocco ended up in the Tangled Wood. Following the wind wherever it went she was surprised when in the thick woods it petered out to the barest of breezes and then stopped all together. The woods were still, well as still as woods could be. Birds still chirped in the trees, small animals rustled in the undergrowth, but for once Sirocco felt lost.
Sirocco soared over The Twisting Crescendo, she was testing her wings. Soon she would leave on a journey to follow wherever the wind took her, and she wanted to make certain her wings would carry her. She kept to the outside, riding the swirling air currents.
When Mistramonte first held the piece of parchment in her hands, she was puzzled.
In the name of knowledge, science and progress, we call out to all of Sornieth.
From down in the ice fields, on the western route to the Fortress of ends, the Cliffhearth university invites dragons, scholars and students, to join our endeavor.
Brave the cold to join us, and you will find a place of learning, where all research is welcome and progress is inbound.
Become part of the effort to lead all of dragonkind to a bright and prosperous future!
There was no way this just happened. Not to her!
She was a wind sprite, after all. How could a simple blizzard have caught her off guard?
Tempest had been flying across the Frigid floes, mapping out each detail carefully, but when she reached the steep cliffs that form the floes‘ rim, an icy gust had taken her by surprise and ripped the oh-so-important document right from her hands.
