Biography

RELATIONS ARCHIVER
snobbism - mafumafu cover
Petalwing Peryton
Glittering Sphinxband
Succulent Spears
Absinthe took over as an official Archiver after the previous dragon of the position, Noire, had been discovered trying to complete a cult ritual which would've flooded Shade magic into a sacrificial dragon. Needless to say, they needed someone else to fill the role.

Though he was relatively very young and new within the clan, he was solemn and respectfully accepted the opportunity he was given. He tends to stay out of trouble, preferring to watch and document the clan like a small bird watching a flock of hawks.

Here's to hoping he doesn't end up like his predecessor.
"Isn't it just fascinating, how we behave with one another? And how we change to match dragon to dragon?" -Absinthe

Absinthe, how are you enjoying your role as the clan's archiver? Did you happen to know the person who you replaced? And if I may ask, how do feel about what Noire was doing?

He is briefly startled at the fact that someone's talking to him, but regains composure quickly.

"Ha! I love my job! I was basically doing the same thing before I was hired, so now I actually get paid for it! Plus it gives me an excuse when other people get too nosy.

"As for... my predecessor, I never met him. He was exiled long before I joined the clan, and as far as I know we never crossed paths.

"For the last question.. What Noire was doing was morally abhorrent. Horrendous. Utterly foul. But the curious cat in me keeps wondering... Why did he try it? What drove him to put his supposed friend in such a position of torture? Were they ever truly friends, or was he planning this from long ago?

"I may never know, but it's entertaining to theorize about."

Hey Absinthe, your quote made me very curious, why do you not participate in the clan aside from cataloguing?
"Oh, it's you again! Been a while. Gonna be honest, the quote's mostly a joke since I didn't have anything meaningful planned. Still, I think it's better for me if I keep away from the clan. Sure, my job'll guarantee me protection as long as I'm in the legal parts of clans, but I take pride in my work! That means I have to include... all parts of the clans. Even the ones who don't want to be accounted for. And those kinds of dragons have eyes on the inside, so the less I interact, the better.

Of course, I'm not doing it to make the clan safer, because it's already pretty safe if you stick to the guarded areas. In the end, it's just a passion project for me."

-doesn't really have what he'd call friends, gets that kind of social feedback just from watching people (mostly)
-has some Thoughts on the nature of self and personality, which he talks to himself about, at length, often
-collects used things in general, but especially books and notebooks, the more weathered and marked up the better
-if you start talking to him about something and then leave halfway through the conversation he will just keep going to himself. Doesn't matter much to him. He can talk for the both of you
-had a big ghost obsession phase as a kid
-"morality is highly subjective if not entirely irrelevant to how most people actually make most day-to-day "moral" decisions haha" (bro be careful)

Hello Absinthe, if you don't mind me asking, do you happen to have any relationships of your own?
Also snobbism is so good!
The Pearlcatcher muffles his smirk with a talon, clearly trying to keep from bursting into giggles. "Me? No thank you. Too much drama. Not too interested in seeing anyone, and my alone time's important to me. If I need validation, I'll go talk to Iriani. She's positive enough to give it to anyone."

At your second comment, he perks up in interest, and goes to fetch the enchanted music artifact that fits into his palm. Sure enough, Snobbism is quietly playing on loop. "It is a good song, isn't it? Happened to find it at the Trading Post, and couldn't help but relate. No one in this lair other than me understands just how performative we can get! In the end, it's just a convoluted show."
