The Clan Story
Zakiax was born to the fire clan from his mother’s side, his father was a shadow dragon. His mother passed when he was still a hatchling. His father left him with the fire dragons where Zak grew up. Alone and without parents he was raised by Nika’s family who took him in after being abandoned.

Once the two became adults they decided to travel together across the lands to see new things. The two mated a few times having children of their own. They raised them lovingly and when they grew to adults they left and went upon their own adventures. Along their travels Zak and Nika meet several friends. But trouble was not far off. Nika finally found someone she cared for more than Zak, as Zakiax began to grow uninterested in having children, afraid that one day he would become his father.

Zak left Nika and her new mate behind and went exploring alone along with only his loyal familiar, Nightshade the Umbra wolf. More friends were met along the way only to be left behind and guided back to where Nika and her mate resided.

Time and time searching he had not been able to find the one thing he was looking for during his trip. His father, Azarel. With his mother gone his father was the only blood family he had left and he had answers for the male. After traveling through the Tangled Wood to find his father, the two finally met, however he did not like the thing his father had become. Corrupt with power he had over his own clan and the way he treated his fellow dragons and creatures. Disgusted with his father he had some words with him which only turned into an argument which was followed by a battle.

Nearly losing his own life he fled from his father’s territory retreating back to the place that he had left Nika in the fire tribe. Still he was followed by pursuers from his father. Although weakened and injured he stood firm and protected his friends from his father’s clansmen. In this moment he became the leader of them, after the battle they decided to leave the fire territory and travel around the world as a nomadic clan, trying to avoid the pursuers from his father’s clan.

Their clan grew as they went along, gaining loyal friends who began to rise up to their aid. Zak decided that he was sick of running from his father and began to plan to make a stand against him. On their way to safety they ran into his father's forces. They fought no longer running away only to lose quite a few of their friends in the process (The non gen 1 lair purge).

They escaped safely into the territory of the wind clan to lick their wounds and regroup. This is where they story begins as they arrive in the wind clan to gather their forces.
