Erycinae

It's questionable as to what purpose Clan Aequitas serves in its existence. When it comes to a gathering of 50+ unique individuals, each with their own special way of making the nearest object burst into flames, well, unless you like being prepared for your passage to hell, you would probably want to nail "return to creator" on the foreheads of every dragon you came across.

The thing is, the individuals in Clan Aequitas aren't useless. Not by a long margin. (Unless you're Krajta. Then yeah, you're useless.) In fact, there are quite a few dragons with unique skills or knowledge that could prove to be very helpful in certain contexts. Valenya's dimensional sealing ability could prevent a hurricane or a flood. Isfet's skill with explosives might prove helpful in excavations. Even Muffin's knowledge of alchemy is useful, especially when you remember (as most dragons won't bother to do) that she did use to work for the Arcanist, and her inability to perish in the most volatile of situations means the fields of science could be pushed to its limits if she ever seriously sets her mind to it.

Alas, talents like these are wasted in a space like Clan Aequitas, where your survival is centered around your ability to dive out of the lair when someone's next best idea ever warps the ground into space or portals the kitchen into the Sea of a Thousand Currents (again).





All she has to do is use her fire magic to spell out a complicated chemical equation with a single small flaw, and half the clan will crawl out of the woodwork to tell her it's wrong, while the other half will show up to attempt twisting the equation in new and increasingly explosive ways.


Rejoice! Another dragon has finally joined the ranks of the Competent in the Aequitas Lair, which means the clan is now slightly less likely to explode because of its 50+ misfits.
