Custom Progenitor.

(They built an enormous prism atop of their highest structure, forever bathing clan lands in muted rainbows.)

Symbol:
An iridescent crystal, reminiscent if the Lightweaver's own rune, slanted across a midnight sun, refracting a beam of light into shards of vibrant color.

Leader:
Spirit is the leader of Prism Clan, and one of the original progenitors.

Members:
Members of Prism clan undergo a period of inner-reflection and soul-searching before being granted a name. Oftentimes, this great honor is bestowed upon them after reaching levels of skill with which to further the forces of the Lightweaver. They are charged with a sacred duty, joining the ranks of the exalted, or they go on to become permanent members of the clan. Those living in the clan's main lair within the Mirrorlight Promenade number well over a thousand at times, many of whom came to the realm of Light as abandoned or adopted eggs of other clans. Their primary sanctuary, however, lies within the Beacon of the Radiant Eye, where they work to further the Lightweaver's will. A complete list of members is difficult to record, due to the sheer number that travel the realms seeking the Light, only to return once their studies are completed. Those conducting such research may indeed number in the hundreds. Though only a few remain in the Lightweaver's lands, they all are dedicated to her teachings, and the libraries maintained by their clan have grown with each passing season.

Lore:
The search for truth has become not so much a goal as a core tenet that directs the motives of their entire clan. To seek the Light is to seek truth in all things. Their progenitors' vision of a clan of learning has flourished beneath the Lightweaver's wings, and for every passing day there is a new project, a new avenue for discussion, another topic to contemplate. Encouragement to both question and listen, and the search for all forms of knowledge, often lead members to long studies, oftentimes abroad, always to return with a much richer and more complete understanding of the world, and with additional material for future consideration. Reason before judgement, thought before action, there is little that is done in Prism Clan that isn't well thought out in advance, though they seem to have, through strong leadership and dedicated focus, avoided the stagnation that might otherwise have hindered less decisive clans their size. For them, to live by the Light is to live in search of truth, and indeed, few members would act otherwise, dishonesty almost unheard of within their ranks. Of course, it is tempered somewhat by a good sense of tact and a willingness to listen and learn as to share experiences. There are as many members willing to teach and share the clan's knowledge as there are that seem to seek truth as students, often both at once.

Politics:
The clan is generally a peaceful one, extending friendship to both its neighbors and those across the waters, from other realms. The search for knowledge, and indeed, the search for truth, has led them to form mutually beneficial arrangements with many. Their enemies are few, and any disagreements are generally dealt with diplomatically. They have strong ties, especially, with those of the Earth and Water flights, as well as some in the Nature and Lightning realms, although the strongest alliances by far have been made with other Light clans, sharing not only bonds of common cause and philosophy, but more and more often those of blood and brotherhood. It is not uncommon for a former member of Prism Clan to be seen living amongst its neighbors, either in an exchange of services and knowledge, or as a permanent resident. In general, the clan's relations are marked by a lack of conflict, polite and kind to all visitors, with reason given preference over shows of force or status.
