Clan Lore & Brief History

The magi - known as the Rumtum Tugger in the history books of the clan - wrecked their ship during the apocalypse, in the place that would become the Fishspine reef. Young hatchling Irineth found the ship fossilized and relocated it to the tidal pool she called home.

This was the start of the Viking Clan of Irineth Firstborn...

It is Irineth's strong personality and passion for her game of Vikings and Villains that draw many to play with her. She is masterful in her craft; weaving together campaigns that kept the lost souls who found her entertained, if not alive. As the years pass, her game gets more intricate, and more involved. The lore deepening, while still allowing for new players.

Through her leadership, the clan has expanded to include a lush glade, demigods, and dragons from every walk of life.

In 2019, there was a great migration of many dragons who had made their marks on the lair. With that, though, came a great immigration as well. Builders, magicians, herbalists... dragons with skills that were much needed for the growth that was coming, as nests were filled by the newcomers.

The clan was able to recreate the ship in the form of the Maiden Voyage - a ship that once barely stood afloat, and was more likely to be seen on land than sea. Irineth and a selection of lair denizens joined her in a trek across Sornieth, while the rest formed a government in the Glades and Reefs.

During a stop at the Glades in 2022, Irineth's crew shifted roles. Different players joined her, including Sawylsdotter, who began mending the holes and making the Maiden Voyage seaworthy.

Irineth also established a Guard, whose job was to both protect the lair and also to farm the surrounding lands; and sanctioned the use of underground dens to protect the Hatchlings from any wandering danger.

With their ranks growing, many of the flight royalty dragons and the hatchlings re-located to the Shoredeep Presage. They make the short passage to the Glades when neccessary.

Ships

The Maiden Voyage

Currently, this is the only ship. Irineth keeps looking for more, though.

Other Areas of the Lair

The Glades:
Floating above the Fishspine Reef is a small island with a cenote in the center. Known as The Glades, this land was claimed when Irineth recognized that the reality of things had grown dire. With starvation imminent, she put Praxander and a small team of dragons in charge of caring to the fauna.

In the years Praxander cared for The Glades, he added a dragon-made marshland with a ranch to keep the familiars. In 2022, BrightEyes uncovered the cenote that became the hibernal den. Above the cenote, there is a single tree that has started sprouting. It is Praxander's oak, and it is well guarded by the spirits.

The Cenote:
Deep below the Glades rests the Cenote Dens, some underwater but not connected to waters of Sornieth. Mother BrightEyes stands guard when she's not within, caring for the hibernating hatchlings sleeping quietly in their nests.

The Presage Dwellers:

Flights Legacy:

Gifted to Irineth from the deities themselves, occasionally she is tasked with raising and caring for 10 generations of dragons from an egg without parent. During her travels, she must also find suitable mates for them direct from their flight, with the personalities and teachings that link strongly with their deity.

She is currently tending to the following:
