Biography
A R R A K I S
The cosmos is also within us. We're made of star-stuff. We are a way for the cosmos to know itself.
━━━━━◇━━━━━
That night, the crisp briny air rolling in from the sea carried promises of spring. Innumerable stars kept vigil in the velvet darkness of a cloudless, moonless sky, and Arrakis could feel their inscrutable regard like an itch building to an unbearable heat in her blood. Though she lay draped across the sun-warmed flagstones lining the reflecting pool, wings mantled against the night's lingering chill, her tail swished out a perfect rhythm on the ground beside her.
Rest would elude her that night.
A gentle breeze stirred the surface of the reflecting pool, and the golden flecks of light dancing merrily across its ripples came not from the stars above but from the shining halo illuminating her brow. So fixated was the young imperial upon the glittering display, and upon the murky thoughts that even her brilliant light could not reach, that she didn't hear the jingle of jewelry or the click of hard talons against stone until the intruder was already upon her.
"May I join you?"
Arrakis started. Craning her neck to meet the stately Wildclaw approaching her, the young dragon did her best to swallow the knot of surprise lodged in her throat - but a soul kept no secrets in Muhorta's presence. "Forgive me, your majesty. My thoughts got away from me." The tightening coil of her tail betrayed a child's embarrassment.
"A java sparrow needs no forgiveness for singing, my dear, but one might be interested in learning about the song." The blood queen had a way of asking-without-asking things that both mystified and compelled Arrakis - but then, she had been playing the game for a very long time.
The words tumbled out in a rush before she could guard herself, welling up like springtime snowmelt into a river. "Why am I the clan's link to the Lightweaver? Why not Yasiin, who's been here longer than anyone? Or Zorya? Or you? You are by far the wisest of us all - I'm a child." Arrakis leapt to her feet, tail lashing anxiously. "Any one of you would be more worthy of this responsibility than I. I'm no-one. How could I possibly guide our clan in the Lightweaver's grace?"

Muhorta chuckled softly, unruffled even as the agitated young Imperial towered over her. "You are no-one - but a no-one with a crown of light above her head." She gestured with a wave of her ruby-pommeled cane to the halo bathing both of them in its warm glow. "Each of us is born with a song in our hearts: some might sing for the glory of battle, some for adventure, some even for the quiet refuge of books and history. No matter how hard we try, that song will draw us to where we belong. The Lightweaver sent you to us because she saw in you a child's ingenuity, a depthless capacity for good, and the inspiration to see it done - whatever the cost. She sent you to us because, like the constellations in the night sky guide mariners safely across entire oceans, you are a beacon by whose light the rest of us lost souls might hope to discover the righteous path."
Arrakis quieted at the queen's words, golden eyes wide with wonder. "You are our compass, Arrakis al-Rashid. You need only follow the song in your heart, and do what you feel is right. The rest will fall into place." |

character/◇
Born a child of the light, Arrakis is naïve and free-spirited. She believes all creatures are equally deserving of life and dignity, and when given the opportunity for mercy or justice she will always stand for mercy. Though her gentle nature has earned significant skepticism from those of the clan more familiar with the harsh realities of survival, Arrakis has nevertheless earned the Blood Queen's trust through her wisdom, temperance, and ingenuity in proposing non-violent solutions to complex or perilous problems, as well as through her tireless insistence to speak for the wellbeing of all.

THE SIX FACTIONS
under arrakis' guiding light |
 //////
|
━━━━━◇━━━━━
|
All permanent members of Solira will eventually find themselves allied with one of the six presiding factions. Most groups serve important roles in the everyday survival of the clan and Light Flight, though the clan's recent prosperity has brought with it the rise of a secretive, ambitious syndicate of rogues and thieves.
Dragons take great pride in their adherence to their chosen faction. Defections are rare, with even elderly members of the Wardens preferring to spend their retirement mentoring the next generation of Wardens rather than settling into civilian life, and those who do choose to leave one faction for another are often forced to overcome the skepticism and distrust of their new peers. A notable exception to this is the Union, a consortium of tradesfolk who readily accept all clan members into their ranks regardless of their past.
