Artifact

Artifact is a down to earth dragon. So to speak. Being on both the architect team AND the elementalists, he ends up being the point of contact between the two more often than not. He has a very clear, slow way of speaking - there are no miscommunicactions. He also has a good eye for artifacts, so under his watch nothing potentially interesting is destroyed by excavation.

In a clan of quirky weirdos, NOT having much of a personality stands out. He isn't strange, unhinged, a scientist of any kind, a daredevil or hyper competitive, and he isn't particularly an eccentric collector of anything or an outcast of somewhere. He didn't come here alongside a mate, or family. The Machine didn't call him. He wasn't running from, or to anything. His history was boring. He could have settled down anywhere.

He sticks out like a sore thumb and is a ready source of gossip in THIS clan.

The truth is, he just likes the dragons here. They're not judgmental - well, most of them aren't- they keep an eye out for each other and they provide no end of amusement. He doesn't have much to say, and aside from being able to read old scripts and identify archaeological artifacts, he's a very what you see is what you get kind of personality.

And with the rampant dangers they cause themselves, they all clearly need protecting. Sure, there's plenty others who do just that - Ravage, Voidwalker, Oilslick, Sidcatha and Tyrant herself, Veirnor and Stormdance - but it never seems like you can have too many. His charge is the clan, and his mission is to make sure that nothing goes wrong - and when it does, that they can fix it, fast.

With the replacement to Pharen (a close friend of Artifact's) being a young brash coatl appropriately named Hurricane, the Elementalists also need even more watching over. Just in case.
