Biography

"I pray that you will hear my plea. Bear with me, for my tale is long, but I must tell all if you are to understand our struggle."

"I was born of Lady Jashin of the Hundred Eyes and her mate, Hemotenshi, the Angel of Plague. While my clutch was intended for sacrifice, I was chosen, as the strongest amongst those hatchlings, to live on and to spread the influence of the Plaguebringer. But as I grew, I came to learn that it was not for strength alone that kept me from being cast into the Wyrmwound as an offering of flesh."

"A time ago, both my father and my mother resided in another clan, called Askani. Both left in their own time, my father as a hatchling and my mother... my mother was driven out by a rival. A Coatl who seeks to contaminate the ways of the weak-hearted, those who brave disease but cannot bear the thought of destruction, even as a form of catharsis. He hides behind a Fae called Hindame, the last Shadowborn child of my home clan before their territory was overtaken by the spread of Plague's territory."

"As my birth clan struggled to survive, many hatchlings were sent to the care of the better-adapted Clan Askani, including Hindame. As a child of Lady Jashin, who was then the Leader of the Faith in Askani and left her home only every so often to be with my father, he was treated with respect and heralded as an instrument through which disease might thrive. Time passed, and it was decided that he would be offered up to the Plaguemother as a sacrifice of flesh, a vessel of decay that might promote the growth of pathogens, during the Riot of Rot. But at the height of the ceremony, Hindame- my elder brother- did something unheard of. He refused. My mother herself attempted to force him bodily into the festering pit of the Wyrmwound, but he was shielded by that accursed Coatl. Disgusted, my mother fled the scene and settled with her mate in Ghostheart, the clan of my birth. Hindame was named Lord of the Faith in her place, entrusted to interpret the will and ways of the Plaguemother. And so the Coatl gained a mouthpiece through which to speak."

"He threatens to overthrow our ways. First in his own clan, then in others. He knows that the more meager clans of our flight are prone to mercy, to pitying the weak and the dying, and thus they breed bad blood into their broods. Our way is one of natural selection, so that only the strong survive. The propagation of diseases help to cull weak bloodlines, and to make our Flight what it is. But the soft-hearted fools only prolong their own peoples' suffering. Ghostheart nearly disappeared after its territory was contaminated, but the survivors grew resilient, and thrived."

"The weak are soft-spoken and meek, but they gain sympathy, and so they breed. And so in their weakness they are manipulated by those that offer them protection, such as the Coatl who now controls Askani from behind his puppet, Hindame. I know that this is but one of many such cases. This mindset is the one form of infection I will not tolerate."

"And as I was born with such similar coloration to my brother, I believe I am sent to mend what he failed to fix. But I am but words on the wind. I have seen the signs, I have read the warnings. We are at war with our own weakness, and if Plague is a body, we must make sure that it can combat this illness. With words and wits if we are able, and with tooth and talon if necessary."
