Eirlys

She was like a meteor in the sky. Everyone couldn't help but draw their attention to her as she shot across the night sky. Iridescent white scales refracting the moonlight below, making the dragon shine for all eyes to see. Dark colored wing graced with soft, lightly colored speckles blended in perfectly into the night sky. When she plummeted to the earth, she truly embodied her name: Starfall. And boy was she a sight to see.

It was the only time the dragon got to herself; those short flights at night. Every waking hour was spent being surrounded by others. Having been gifted with the clan's power meant that Starfall was highly respected amongst others in her clan. It was widely known knowledge that only a select few could inherit such an ability. It was a widely sought after ability. The dragon was constantly approached for her seer like premonition. Not only that but her presence was required at every meeting with any other clan as a precaution against any underlying malicious intent. It also made her a target. Not only by others who knew of her abilities, but by those within her own clan. Though many sought her out for her dazzling similarity to the night sky and her vast knowledge, others (though few in number) loathed her ability. Loathed that they hadn't been selected or that their hatchlings hadn't.

After all, the process wasn't easy.


Once the previous retainer announced their retirement, every dragon within the clan sought out for their hatchlings to be selected as the clan's newest retainer. A year after the announcement, the previous clan seer selected a few to take on as their apprentice. A few that they would raise as their own for the duration of their stay. Starfall had barely made the cut. She studied night and day, bested out her own clansmen. She witnessed first hand what the power could do to others. That the knowledge of the future could drive many dragons mad. She had momentarily experienced the madness herself. But instead of sinking into it, letting the madness consume her, she clawed her way out of endless possibilities of a near future and back into the present. Perhaps that was what set her above the rest.

She watched the numbers dwindle until it was but her and another. And somehow, Starfall came out victorious. Despite what she had seen as a clear win for the other, she was selected to inherit such an incredible power. Not a day has gone by that the dragon didn't appreciate the opportunity. But there was an unseen side to becoming the seer of the clan. Everyone seemed to walk on eggshells around her now. Even friends that she had had since birth treated her with reluctant reverence. It was so... lonely. Her entire childhood was spent watching others of her age outside playing while she was indoors learning how to focus on a single, potential shred of the future. The only company she had was the former retainer and once they had passed... she was alone again.


Not only that, but after the former retainer's passing, there was an even greater amount of pressure placed on the dragon's shoulders. She was constantly treated like glass. The power was passed on from one to the next. If anything were to happen to her, there would be no power. And everyone knew it. It was frustrating enough coping with the death of a loved one but the stifling readiness that everyone had to help her with anything was... too much.

That's why night flights were the best. They were an escape from it all. For a moment, Starfall could be exactly what she was meant to be: a fallen star.

"I must perform this role, for it is my holy duty."

Libra: Mage, Sentry
It takes a lot of courage to perform the task Libra does on a daily basis. His studies of the Arcana have moulded him into a very talented mage, capable of magical feats others may only dream of. And how does he put this to work?...by ensuring that an aggressive Emperor remains sealed in the Unknown's basement.

Being the only one who has been able to successfully contain the Screamer, Libra serves an incredibly important role for the clan. Without him, after all, the beast would have possibly destroyed a fair portion of the Sunbeam Ruins by this point. Libra takes a holistic view to his work, believing that this is part of his duty as a student of the Arcanist (though around the rest of the clan he does, of course, sing Lightweaver's praise). He believes that he was chosen in part for this role, and that it's his duty to perform it.

You wouldn't expect such a kindly soul to be in command of a monster. Best be glad that this soul is on the path of righteousness.

Ebony Da'rkness Dementia Raven- Pfffaahahahah oh, she can't even say that with a straight face. Nah, it's just Ebony. Like the darkwood. Loads of it in the Tangled Wood, so it's pretty easy to blend in anywhere, and jump out anywhere, and terrify strangers anywhere......
Yeah, Ebony can get away with pretty much anything if she wants. Sometimes it's hard to tell whether she even did the thing in question. Sometimes it's obvious, but there's no solid proof. Not to imply she's an evil mastermind or anything. Not to imply she isn't, either. Winky face.
She's the youngest daughter of the clan "leader," which is really just a fancy way of saying "my dad built the place." She wishes the clan was maybe a bit more glorious, or at least had some sort of goal or purpose, but she doesn't moon over it like Russel. Hardly even cares, really. That's the ideal. No, actually, the ideal is building robots all day. That'd be sweet. Wonder what Kaz knows about robots...

Spunky Sentry | Everyone's Best Friend | Univeral Training Buddy

Darya is the firstborn daughter of Avery, the clan leader... patriarch... guy. Or something. She doesn't think it matters too much. She'd rather spend time on her fighting and gymnastics- and if she's lucky, passing techniques on to her family! She's the first official sentry to be appointed by the captain due to her above-average interest and skill- not to brag, or anything. Whoops!
She's always wanted to see other places, so once the Spirals joined the family, Darya was sure to talk their tails off. Thankfully, none of them were bothered by her constant questions, and she even made some new friends.
Yeah, life is pretty good!

"Flowers, no! What have you done?"

She'd seen the wandering hatchling with those genes and assumed he was a halfbreed at least. This did not appear to be the case. He chattered away merrily to everyone as they fed him and the life he described sounded like life in a pretty ordinary dragon lair. But when asked about the whereabouts of his former clan, all he could say was "Dunno, I lost them. Can I stay with you? The music is pretty here."

As yet, no-one has been able to trace his family to see if they want him back. He seems content to stay with the clan and, apart from a tendency to talk a lot, interacts with the ex-drones almost as if he were one of them.

STATUS: oops

CLAN ALEJANDRO

Nimbus is happy and energetic! A wonderful addition to Alejandro's clan! He is everyone's favorite noodle! Nimbus is part of the permanent coliseum team, and works hard to both win glory for his clan, and impress the ladies. But it wasn't always this way.

Nimbus has a rather clouded past. No one is quite sure where he really comes from. During the war against Arcane, Nimbus showed time and time again exactly why he is on the coliseum team. Nimbus is a brutal fighter, dropping his happy go lucky persona and becoming a cold and emotionless killer. In the darkness of the Tangled Wood, his natural low-light hunting abilities shine.

After the war, however, Nimbus seems to want to go back to the past when he was a simple gladiator, trying his best to leave behind a life of pain and death for something simpler. He spends a lot of time in the forest these days. Being among the trees as they regrow has seemed to heal Nimbus as well.

"The only weapon I need to protect myself is me." ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ IMPULSIVE ● ARROGANT ● STRONG-WILLED● RESOURCEFUL ● SOLITARY Ever the nomadic soul, Ilona has traversed Sornieth a hundred times in search of something she doesn’t even have a name for- though the best word for it might be purpose- and lending her fighting prowess to those she deems worthy along the way. While she wishes she was looking for something as concrete as her Charge, as her guardian father did in his youth, Ilona comforts and grounds herself in being the first dragon into the fight and the last one out. Her parents wouldn’t approve of the choices she’s made on her journeys, but Ilona stopped needing their good opinion a long time ago; the only dragon she needs is herself- and she has enough faith in herself for both of her parents. She makes it a point to avoid the places her birthclan has been, wary of crossing paths with them lest the clan leader- her distant, self-righteous father- try to influence and sway Ilona from her meandering, often bloody path. She doesn’t always wholly believe in the life she’s chosen, the way her father does in his, but it was of her own making and that’s all Ilona has learned to need. Just the same, she carries with her always the dried flowerpetals and agate stone her fathers favored even in her youth, keepsakes to remember them by. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Wish Keeper

Each day, dragons come and go from this beautiful boys home, writing wishes on small slabs of stone or materials that get thrown into a small well at the back. Each night he fishes them out and lays them down, scribbling on parchment the wishes of his clan and taking this with him wherever he might go in hopes that he will find at least one thing on the list.

From small items each dragon likes to hoard, to skins and accents, clothing and even gifts for other clans, he is the keeper of wishes and grants them when the rest sleep away comfortable in their beds.
