Note: If I don't answer your message, you likely did nothing wrong. I've got extremely low social bandwidth and most of it's reserved for IRL friends.

Lore note: All of it was written pre-Beastclan-retcon and tends to skew dark! If you're prone to needing regular content warnings, it's probably best you skip my lair. <3

Commonly known to allies as Clan AXQU. Put simply, they're a Lightning clan in the heart of Ice territory: they manufacture and research everything from enchanted armor to projectile weapons to all out bombs and biological agents. They took the Lightning flight's industriousness to a pathological extreme that made even other Lightning dragons side-eye them-- Clan AXQU considers the move to Ice a softening.

Their hospitality is legendary to allies, but their weapons tech and military capability is legendary to its enemies. They keep a high standard of living within the Clan and a frosty secrecy pointed outward-- perhaps the move was a natural fit, deep down, although the Clan still maintains that its soul is pure Shifting Expanse.

If asked, they will say that the reason they uprooted and dug a brand new bunker in the Southern Icefield is because of the Stormcatcher's management style. Clan AXQU consistently excelled in exceeding quotas, and their only reward was more work. Or, if they took a week to rest, anger and punishment for 'slacking off.' Tithes to the Spire got more and more ridiculously outlandish. The power demands to supply Goldensparc, with no reward but "the pride of Lightning-flight ingenuity" to show for it, became a source of resentment.

Clan AXQU is, naturally, driven. The Clan has self-selected for intelligent, resourceful, hardworking dragons. They resent being pushed to work themselves to death, under the implication that they'd be lazy otherwise, just to fund the lifestyle of some ~~ivory~~ golden tower layabout elites. What started as a rebellion has turned into a union, and everyone in Clan AXQU is much happier and more well-adjusted for it. Better a neglectful, hands-off God who leaves them alone than a toxic micromanager, in their eyes. The Stormcatcher created His children to have intelligence and critical thought. He has, in Clan AXQU's mind, no right to act all surprised when some of them look Him in the eyes and find Him wanting.

Whoa I didn't realize I'd bought another dragon from the same person! That's pretty funny haha. Thank you for breeding them though, it's definitely a harder color combo to come by!
