Biography

The Tear-&-Taste Buffet Badges

The ink on the first few pages of this book is colorful and bright, yet as you flick through the stuck-together pages, you see the rainbow begin to swirl together into a bright brown hue. The page after says: This color is every color together. Seeing every Dragon together in cooperation is my dream come true. Behind that there seem to be signatures and self portraits of varying quality of the book's previous owners- ending for now with a mischievous Aether with paper in its mouth.

This book is blank...? But only at first glance. As you think about what kind of dragon would peddle a blank book, an image of the salesman seems to pop into existence in the book! It seems to be a book that's written by the holder's thoughts and emotions. But why was this being given away?

This book is incredibly thick and heavy. There is nothing on the cover to indicate what it is. Opening it and skimming through reveals you have a treasure trove in your claws. The book is written in an unknown script, but seems to contain large sections based on astronomy, cosmology, botany, medicine, and there are several recipes. This book will be fun to decipher, provided your appetite doesn’t get the better of you.

‘Oh, Lysandre, how you set my heart aflame!' cries Amaryllis. 'I was born to protect you, Amaryllis,' rumbled her Guardian as jasmine petals fall all around them. Amaryllis's roseate orbs well up with tears.’’ You roll your eyes at how formulaic this story is, but what did you expect from a 2-gem romance novel? Of course, you continue reading. Something about the awkward prose and clichéd tropes satisfies your psyche the same way leftover caterpillar pizza fills your belly.

Your gaze is drawn to a magnificent old grimoire in its very own display case. Your heart pounds faster when you see the book's title: Mundus arcanorum, editio prima. The world of Arcane magic, first edition. Damn the cost, you're not leaving without it! To your surprise, the vendor gives you both the book and the case. ’It's lead-lined,’ she explains. ‘This book came from the Arcanist's personal library, so the radiation lingers.’ Is this meal too hot to handle?

This book's paper is far smaller than the outer cover. The writing is miniscule and hand-done as well! It seems to be a translation of modern to older Sornieth language, written from the point of view of a Veilspun authoress. Just holding this makes you feel more knowledgeable of the long-lost secrets of the world.

This Aether family cookbook has an interesting gimmick; the pages taste just like the recipe written on it. You're curious to know how they managed it, was it magic? Too bad the cookbook is entirely unusable. Many of the pages are melted beyond comprehension due to the decades of licking. Yuck.

This book is rather light and has clearly been through a lot. You open it to find that the pages are strange. They look to be torn sections of scroll paper from other sources! They are bound to the leather rather loosely, and the tears aren’t clean, you almost think they were chewed off. A quick nibble tells you the book tastes… wrong? Something illicit may have happened here.

This book is clearly from the Viridian Labyrinth. It has deteriorated from humidity quite a bit. It has a lot of earthy tones to it. Opening it reveals that it is a documentation of earlier searches for Auraboa!

The cover of this book has a fanciful pattern. Opening it reveals entirely blank pages. What? You flip through the pages until you see a bit of motion at the first page. There is a single dot of ink. It begins to dance around the page, morphing into a line and splitting into several others, each creating patterns of their own. They begin to dance all through the book as the pages flip on their own. What is going on?

‘ENOUGH!’ booms a mysterious voice. You dart around, panicked, but the only things in this room are you and the tome that you're eating. Suddenly your book begins to glow. ‘NOBODY DISRESPECTS ITALIX THE MIGHTY! A CURSE UPON YE!’ Italix chants: ‘’Lorem ipsum dolor sit, adipiscing sed elit, sunt in culpa ex ea, dolore fugiat nulla!’’ You flutter to the floor, no longer a dragon but an image on a sheet of paper, silently screaming to the heavens.

This book is heavier than the rest, and advertised as packing the spiciest punch possible for taste. Upon opening, all you can see are rows and rows of solved and unsolved quadratic equations in myriad tones of ink. It's enough to make your eyes water just looking at it.

This book is- oh, oh no! As you open it, several small moths seem to fly out. If this wasn't already as well as ruinedd by the Aether bite marks on the outside, the moths did an amazing job on the inside. Perhaps you can trade this in for another book?

You make a beeline towards a zine table on the opposite end of the hall. Among the brochures you spot a bright yellow booklet called ‘The ABCs of DIY’. There really is a tutorial in here for everyone- how to dye apparel, make gene scrolls, navigate by the stars- but you're drawn to a section on how to unionize one's workplace. You leave the table with several copies in your bag: one for you, more for your colleagues.

This book is neat and crisp inside. Er. Crisp? Too crisp, apparently, as you flip through it you find tooth marks dotting the inner pages. It looks like someone had a snack- on a book about spices and herbology no less! One can only wonder if the taste was as savory as the writing.

How incredibly odd! The contents of this book don't seem to match the cover at all. In fact, the contents aren't like much of anything you've ever seen before, closer to the symbols depicting the Gaolers' Orders rather than modern language. Yet the words of the book seem to rearrange themselves in a way you can read as you gaze at the gloss of the ink- Reythala's Diary. You think maybe you should exchange this for a different book- or maybe…

Being in the Starfall Isles doesn't just affect the organic life living in the area; the books are affected as well. This one has pink crystalline shards slowly growing out of it. A tentative lick reveals that the crystals are surprisingly sweet! Though your tongue now glows pink. Perhaps it's best to just read the ancient literature within...

Fine calligraphy swirls across this book's glossy pages, printed in full color to display every detail. These pieces are more experimental than the calligraphy that you're familiar with; one shapes a mountain landscape in lines of poetry instead of pigment. Another one titled ‘Butterfly Waltz’ depicts a musical score spiraling outwards from the center of the page. Intrigued, you glance at the cover and see that the artist is called Scribbles the Archivist. Where have you heard that name before...?

It's a pop-up book! The pages jump out at you with forests and mountains of watercolour and ink, accompanied by the whimsy of the author's handwritten prose. As you read through the rest of the book, however, you find that quite a lot of the chapters have been taken to be made into pastries… At the very least, there's an Aether out there happy to have eaten a particularly sweet tome.

You find the graphic novel section, and return with a comic containing a faint purple glow. Upon closer inspection, it seems to be binded with some sort of enmagicked thread, and opening the comic reveals why: the pictures move! You watch as characters dance across the page, positively enchanted.

This book is soft, its covers containing fine cracks from its repeated reads. A well-loved book is best. It seems to be a book with no words, only pictures, and details the adventures of an Aether traveling across Sornieth. The final page is signed with a pawprint and smile- along with pawprints of many other readers before you. Will you add your own?

This book may have an unassuming cover- but when opened, the pictures inside actually pop up out of it! It looks like a collection of scenery, as seen and recreated from the Aethers' abode high above in the skies. It carries a soft scent of perfume wafting around it- apparently, scented oils make paper far less appealing to consume!
