Biography

"Nox Tenebrius Kuro Deceptikonn Nightblayde Oscuro was born to members of the highest echelons of the Shadow Flight, their every word and deed echoing with ramification through the darkened land like a shout of triumph emanating through the walls of a cliff. On the night of their conception, the sun pierced into and invaded the day like a squadron of vicious beasts overwhelming a sentiment, burning into the night with unholy light in a total lunar eclipse. This moment of overpowering showed that from the moment of their entering the world in corporeal form, the young dragon's life would be ripped apart limb by limb and soaked in the blood of contrast and conflict between the eternal forces of light and darkness. And that it was.

When ze was born, all of the lights in both the Tangled Wood and the Sunbeam Ruins flashed in unison, every glowing orb and mushroom alike descending into total darkness before lighting up in both purple and yellow like the gods themselves were playing Glimmer and Gloom. When the dragon was born, their hide was the color and consistency of the great goopy Shadowbinder herself, but their eyes, their eyes were torn apart as an abomination. Half of Light, half of Shadow, their very existence was to be just as marked by light overwhelming darkness and vice versa as the night of their conception. For the rest of time, Sornieth's light and shadows alike would bow to them, brightness and obscurity at the very cusp of their presence. Ze would dominate both lands, using their dual nature to fragment all the world into a dark chaos, motivated solely by the pursuit of glorious deception and the destruction of all that is revealing and bright. They were cast out by their parents, not wanting to stare into the accursed light of their left eye. When they were left in the deepest depths of the wood, glaring with the purest of convictions into the deep endless abyssal eldritch pool of the Forum of the Obscured Crescent, home of the Darkening One Herself, something in them broke. The runes that ran across their body lightened and darkened in unity as they rose from the pool, hatchling wings frantically flapping as their cold cackle of pure insanity echoed across the land, striking the fear of something above the deities into all that heard it. In zir madness, the very Shade itself descended from the heavens to enter them. They were to be the destroyer of all that was lit, all that was pure, all that could ever be saved of Sornieth. All the world would fall into chaos, deception, darkness and destruction. And they would rule this dark world as its sole and eternal deity."

Distorticon tapped a claw against his chin, its point slightly sinking into the fabric of his hood. "This is a good story...Nox? Is that what I should call you? I must say that your central character is a bit hard to relate to. Solely wanting to spread insanity and Shade isn't exactly a sympathetic motivation and conflating Shadetouch with power from the Light and Shadow Flights could seriously offend people. It's fine to write this kind of stuff for yourself, but if you want to publish it, you'll want to tone it down so nobody thinks you believe things you really don't. That's dangerous stuff to talk about. I don't know if you know this, but there's actually some Shade worshippers active in these parts so people are definitely on edge about it."

The Mirror before him flew into a rage, pacing around the room at an ever-increasing pace as their speech continued to get faster, more pointed, and higher-pitched. It started from what they thought was a menacing hiss, but that stopped after about the first two words. "Character? Story? Believing things I don't? This is who I am! I knew you wouldn't understand, you smug pretentious psychology major g-grown-up! I bet you don't even believe in the Shade. I only don't have my full power because I had to be sealed away so I didn't kill all the deities and rule the world! And you will address me by my true name."

"I see. So...Nox Tenebrus Kuri Deception Nightblade Obscure, have you gone to therapy or anything before?"

"My mom's sent me to many pathetic mortal professionals. All as full of meaningless buzzwords as you. They draw conclusions. They call me 'troubled', 'delusional', 'living out a daydream'. They all either try to make me act like a mere dragon or give up on me after the first couple of appointments. They don't know that really, they're the mad ones. I'm the one who's woken up to the illusion they call reality. Destruction is the only constant. Everything will fall to the Shade! Everyone lies! Everything is a lie! The only thing that we know about days is that they end! ALL LIGHT IS CONSUMED BY DARKNESS, AND I, THE DARKEST LORD, WILL DESCEND ALL OF SORNIETH INTO THIS SACRED VOID!"

"Okay. And how did all of this make you feel? I'm getting from your tone of voice that feeling like your parents were trying to limit your true self really impacted you."

"You know nothing about pain, old man. I am pain. I am despair. I am the moment when the light of hope in someone's eyes is consumed by the only thing that truly exists."

"You said that your parents were particularly loyal Shadow Flight members. Can you tell me more about that?"

"They were loyal to that witch Shadowbinder. They didn't really understand darkness."

"Uh huh. Where did you live?"

"Wispwillow Grove. We were encroaching into the Lightweaver's territory, hoping to snuff out that stupid light that kept us up at night."

"So you were right on the border is what I'm hearing."

"Yes. That damn Lightweaver crept into my nest and stole me away to limit my power as soon as I hatched in this world! That's why my eyes are like this and all my magic got destroyed."

"I wouldn't say it's been destroyed. I heard from your family that you're quite the magical adept."

"It's barely a fraction of my full power! If you even tried to WITNESS my full power, your head would, like, explode and then you'd get reanimated as, like, a Shade Emperor with 11 heads and start breathing out void everywhere and eating people and them turning into more heads."

"Well, then I'm glad you're holding back. Anyway, Nox, we're out of time for today. I'd like you to do some more writing before we next meet, you're a really good storyteller and I'd like to know more about what you did before you came to 'this world'. Good job, I think we made some real progress today."

"I'm the next stage of dragon society! You're going to be left in the shadows behind me. I am perfection, there is no progress to be made. Later, loser."

Distorticon went through his notes on the meeting. He was really getting to like this kid. Ze was smart, creative, and had useful magical talent. Really, he felt that once Nox had a proper outlet for their rage against their parents and the flight system, they'd be just fine. They were a good kid, not like the Shade worshippers he had seen. As soon as he could break through zir façade, just giving the kid someone to talk to would make them properly blossom as a happy, properly regulated edgelord.

Shadow rep got Shadowmom and the shade mixed up, people have to try and stop them from actively helping the shade take over Sornieth, they accuse these people of being flight-traitors

DriftingDreams wrote:

Shadow rep paints on streaks of black mascara and pretends that they’re crying Shadow Primal tears. Also completely ignores the fact that Shadow dragons are supposed to be playful tricksters and just acts like an emo.

Make a shadow rep that acts super edgy and evil but is actually just an annoying 2006 mall goth

NightmareJudge wrote:

If you want Edge™, you gotta make the Shadow rep a Light dragon. They're a moody teenager constantly angsting about how they were born in the wrong element, so they pretend their real powers were stripped away because they were TOO strong, like every half-demon half-fallen-angel OC ever made.

Instead of weaving shadows and trickery, they're stuck with light powers that sparkle and shine, and they hate it with every inch of makeup and Shadow-themed apparel on their body. The only thing they like from their homeland is Emperors, but they've never seen one in person. In spite of all of this, the Light clan they live with is perfectly loving and accepting.

(Note: I am calling my middle school self out here.)

Shadow rep insists that they're shadetouched and that they have a deep, personal connection to the shade, which whispers to them dark utterance that would REND THE SOULS OF LESSER DRAKES (it's an ouija board; they pronounce it "oh-ee-jah"). Extremely defensive of their shade-themed tarot deck but picks fights with anyone who mentions crystals or horoscopes. Writes poetry (no, you can't read it! Well, I suppose just one, I call it My Soul, a Withered-- where are you going?!). Has several tumultuous and completely fictional relationships with dragons that "are just in a different clan, okay?!" Says "damn" to be cool. Without prompting, they show you a drawing of their "true self", which is just themselves with primal eye heterochromia in an "epic" monochrome jester getup (with either a gun or two katanas). Terrified of clowns.

The Shadow rep speak entirely in amused hisses, and always sticks to the darkest shadows. They keep having to repeat themselves, because speaking legibly in amused hisses isn't easy.

Tharn wrote:

For backstory - Shadow rep ran away from an abusive clan and survived on their own before joining the Edgy Circus and finding a family of misfit stereotypes to call their own.

Fil wrote:

I'm not very worldly on FR caricatures, but I'm imagining your shadow edgelord to be a very proficient drama queen. Really good crying skills that would make any actor envious. Really cringy poems about shadows and darkness that would elevate a poet's early works in comparison.

i'm so sorry but all i can think of is the shadow one broodily going 'you merely adopted the dark, i was born in it, molded by it.'

I hadn't been on that long, but I can see Shadow being like

"WAKE ME UP INSIDE!!!" or some edgy lyric like that.

I took some time to read their bio/lore.. and I have absolutely fallen in love with them. Ze really has a great and unique idea with split eyes.. half light and half shadow. Being an abomination of both worlds really makes for an incredible lore idea. Also the therapy session was hilarious.

lizardfish wrote:

continuing down the rabbit hole of dragons whose outfits and lore are just absolutely phenomenal is nox! i was immediately drawn to them for the bright accents on their outfit, but their backstory was just the icing on the cake. the ideas from croudsourced lore made this dragon, and the use of sly glance to really exemplify their attitude is just absolutely amazing. what a great derg!!

Contaminate wrote:

I rarely see Violet and like it, so big props to this lil edgelord! I love him and his super evil deer friend

Glacecakes wrote:

Can I just say. I absolutely love the lore he's got going on. Absolutely phenomenal "Ebony Darkness Dementia Raven Way" vibes going on and like in a good way. And what a clever use of the April fools eyes! But the spectral grasp really steals the show for me, t just really makes the duller colors pop. Just a wonderfully dressed dragon.
