Verne

Verne, born blind, rarely leaves the clan's base. While capable on his own, his experiences in Shadow Flight territory were traumatic enough for him to fear being alone in the open for long stints.

When he entered the clan, Verne felt he had little to offer besides good manner in interaction with hatchlings. He chose to become one of the communal parent figures, telling stories to hatchlings to keep them out of trouble. As time went on, some of these stories became favorites, and as hatchlings began to ask for these stories to be repeated he began writing them down, in his own invented hand.

Krys, working with the Dragonhome Preservation guild, realized the value of this blind-accessible writing, and suggested that he begin sharing the method with others who may benefit. Verne is now one of the most widely-known transcriptors into dratch (dragon-scratch), a kind of textured shorthand.

It was to his great pleasure to have Cedar assigned to be his eyes in the transcription efforts, and over time the two grew very close.
