This thread is made to store my general clan lore. It will give overviews of each clan (traditions, beliefs, etc) and then a list of members. More information can frequently be found in the members' bios, and those are typically the most up-to-date! I definitely forget to update the thread sometimes :'D [b]Since I'm constantly adding to this thread, I ask that nobody post in it so it's easy to organize.[/b] I'm 100% open to hatchling letters, lore interactions, relationships between our dragons, exchanging of headcanons, anything! Interacting with people is part of the fun of doing things on Dragon Site in the first place! If you ever wanna talk about headcanons, lore, or anything, [b]my inbox is always open![/b] I would love to make lore friends, that sounds like the most fun ever. Finally: as a writer, my favorite thing is conflict, but 98% of the time that conflict won't be violent in my lore. Ultimately, if something requires a warning it probably won't be here in this thread, but [b]if you notice something in my lore that requires a warning and isn't marked, please let me know![/b] If my writing isn't safe for everyone, it's my obligation to make sure people know what to look out for.

It is both a library and a place to store set designs and props, and visitors are welcome under the Archivist's watchful eye. Everything is stored neatly on the shelves, including scripts, costumes, and everything necessary to bring the story back to life once again. Currently, our collected stories are: [LIST=1] [*]The [b]Arcanum's Roost[/b], a group of scholars in pursuit of a very dangerous sort of magic: the ability to create hybrid elements. Already, their head researcher has made himself into a hybrid-elemental through less-than-safe methods. They are on a perilous path, and show no signs of slowing down. [*]The [b]Akasha Kingdom[/b], a nation led by a dragon known as Polaris. As time has passed, Polaris has gathered zealously loyal followers, and their manipulative nature has only become more apparent. The kingdom under their rule is growing, but their rule may bring it to ruin. [*][b]Flamewrath's Revolutionaries[/b], a band of rebels attempting to make safe from injustice the home they grew up in. Flamewrath is a reluctant leader, but a powerful one. [*]The [b]Ichor[/b]. With lore heavily referencing the [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/drs/2846738#post_2846738]Ichor Subspecies[/url], this is a group of Plague dragons who are remarkable in how dangerous they are to be around. I advise caution exploring these stories, as they begin significantly darker than any of the others.

I am the Archivist. I store the songs and stories that have been written by myself and my comrades in the Troupe, that they may be accessed even while not being performed. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask. Some of these stories have a life of their own. They change when you aren't looking. Remember this: everything changes sometimes without our knowing. Every performance reveals something new about a character. That is the mark of a good story.

If you already know us, you may feel free to skip over that section of the library. Part of my responsibility as Archivist is taking down the stories that happen to real dragons; the best stories are rooted in truth, after all. My present favorite is the story of the Ichor: brutal Plague dragons struggling against each other in the Scarred Wasteland. A heavy story, to be sure, but one I have enjoyed recording.

They are a tight-knit group, and every dragon in the clan fulfills a necessary role. There is little conflict, but fights can happen, and when they do they're mediated by the leaders of the Troupe. While they do travel often, the Troupe also has a permanent home in the Windswept Plateau. It's a massive, colorful building known as the Celestial Cinema, a stage with living quarters built around it. They perform there just as often as they perform elsewhere, and some of their most ambitious productions are put on in that building. Other clans may make temporary homes in the area around the Cinema -- it's made for such a purpose, with colorful banners offering shade and walls built to direct wind around any visitors -- but the Cinema is known to belong to the Troupe, and only them. The Troupe is many years old, a well-established clan with a fair amount of fame, and they have changed significantly over the years. They used to be much larger, but over time the dragons who have stayed are the ones who need the Troupe most, and the ones who left moved on to bigger, better things for themselves. Still, even with fewer members, the Troupe travels like it always did and performs with all its heart.

When the Troupe is at home, the area resembles a small town of color. Banners are strewn from the Cinema to the ground; those hoping to see the Troupe camp in colorful tents nearby. Sometimes, traveling shopkeepers set up in the area as well, bringing with them unusual goods. A second building sits off to the side of the Cinema, just as decorated. This is the Windsong Library: formerly, the Roost of Star's planetarium, though the Troupe converted it when they left. The doors to the Cinema are always open, but the Library is generally only open to those that the librarian, Ainan, approves; she is particular about who she allows near her books. All members of the Troupe are happily admitted, and the occasional guest as well. The Library doesn't hold any forbidden knowledge or dangerous books; instead, it holds records of songs and plays from authors throughout history. The Troupe draws on the past in creating their performances. Inside the Cinema, only two areas are open to the public: the grand entrance, and the theater. In the entrance hang hundreds of wind chimes, making a music entirely unique to both the Cinema and the weather of that day. The theater can seat a large number of dragons comfortably, even considering the massive size of some breeds. The rest of the Cinema is living quarters for the members of the Troupe. Each member gets a room of their own to decorate to their heart's content, which makes each room a unique reflection of its occupant. The Troupe is fairly small, so there are a few spaces left over for guests who stay for extended periods of time.

In order to travel freely in the lands of Sornieth, Rasalhague has negotiated some contracts with local Beastclans, acquired missives of peace from others, and is generally prepared to make it clear to any group they come across that the Troupe means them no harm. Some members of the Troupe even have sapient Familiars. These are Beastclans who have elected to join the Troupe, and they are full-fledged members in their own right even if they choose to stick close to their dragon friends. No dragons in the Troupe object to Beastclan members; most view it as a twelfth Flight, a faction that has as much a place in the world as the dragons do. [/columns] [columns][b][center][size=5][font=Century Gothic]Religion[/b][/size][/center] Religion is not a necessary part of life in the Troupe, and many of its members are only loosely religious. In Sornieth, there is little doubt the gods exist, but there may be disagreement on how, exactly, worship is to be carried out. To those in the Troupe who worship the Windsinger, the songs and plays they put on are usually enough in the way of formal worship. Those who worship other deities tend to have shrines in their personal quarters.

Typically, exaltation is seen as an honor, but also as a choice. If a dragon doesn't want to serve the Windsinger, they will not be sent to do so. [/columns] [columns][b][center][size=5][font=Century Gothic]Magic[/b][/size][/center] The Troupe frequently employs magic in its performances: illusions, sound-projecting, special effects, anything is fair game so long as it's safe for the performers and the audience. Magic has a special place in many hearts in the Troupe, as their former neighbors, the Roost of Stars, frequently studied and shared magic with the Troupe.

Dragons living with the Troupe are rarely expected to do anything they don't want to do. As the Mirror pack that Ankaa leads makes abundantly clear, a dragon doesn't even have to respect the leaders of the clan to even the barest degree. Rasalhague is lenient; some might call her soft. Dragons are expected to pull their own weight. Especially on the road, it's difficult to carry enough to support an entire clan. If a dragon accompanies the Troupe on its journeys, they have to be able to support themself. Dragons are left to their own devices in a lot of ways, but there are still vague expectations that they won't be a burden. It is customary for every dragon who joins the Troupe to craft a single chime. This piece is then added to the massive windchime in the lobby of the Celestial Cinema, representing the music they all make when they come together. Dragons who leave the clan have the option of having their chime removed, but if they don't decide to do that then it stays as a reminder that they once lived there, too.

They produce very little on their own, but travel far and wide. There's a chance they've found something another clan needs on their journeys, and perhaps something that they get in trade with that clan can be put to use on their own.

The Troupe welcomed one of their dragons, Dyesolshyed, into the Celestial Cinema to train, while sending the Troupe member Fomalhaut to the Sanctuary, and this forged an interesting bond between the two clans.

It has grown into more than just a religion, though; magical prodigies flock to the Roost, seeking study and knowledge of magic that has defied reason for ages. They are not zealots; they are experts in experimentation, and they believe in advancing knowledge of magic at any cost. While they used to share land with the Troupe of the North Wind, the Roost has since moved on to their own land. While their home, the Planetarium, is a new building, the dragons living there have spent many years studying and learning together. The Planetarium itself is actually a library, a collection of magical texts throughout centuries of knowledge, and the very center room is not so much a true planetarium as it is a soothing projection of the cosmos. The Roost is known in its area for dangerous experiments with magic. Arcane energy is explosive and difficult to manage, after all, but since moving into their own home in the Starfall Isles, they have fielded far less judgement from their neighbors than when they lived with the Troupe. Some of those neighbors are actually curious about the same things.

They live in a library, surrounded by all the books they can gather about magic to inform in their experiences. Their living quarters are all inside the library. At the heart of the library sits a fragment of the Pillar of the World, a mysterious artifact which boosts their magical ability. This library is known as "the Planetarium" because of the stars which are constantly projected onto the ceiling and walls. In a separate, smaller building is the laboratory in which the more dangerous experiments take place. The Roost ultimately wants to know more about blended elements, or magics that are part one and part another, but those are explosive things to study. The laboratory is as safe as it can be.

Neither side has much of a purpose for the other; Beastclan magic isn't what Alfawaris is interested in studying. Perhaps, someday, that will change, but until then the Roost doesn't interact much with Beastclans. [/columns] [columns][b][center][size=5][font=Century Gothic]Religion[/b][/size][/center] The Roost began as a religious group, worshiping Arcane magic and the Arcanist in hopes that they would be bestowed with knowledge of it in return. While the group eventually grew past religious worship, they still view magic as a way to honor the Arcanist, and view the acquisition of knowledge as the highest form of respect toward their god.

Thus, while the Roost is fairly open about their respect for the Arcanist, there is very little chance of a dragon leaving the Roost to go serve him. [/columns] [columns][b][center][size=5][font=Century Gothic]Magic[/b][/size][/center] To the Roost, magic is the most important, most interesting thing. Their entire lifestyle is dedicated to practicing and understanding the magic that flows through the world. Their theories about magic are strange, however; they want to know about hybrid magic. They want to invent a new [i]kind[/i] of magic.

Some have persevered from the time the Roost was nothing but a small religious gathering, but some are newer. The Roost has a consistent schedule. They eat together in the mornings, and spend the time between breakfast and lunch studying or working quietly. After lunch passes, even the grumpiest dragons are awake enough for more in-depth activities. Some continue studying in silence, but others get involved in debates, or attempt to practice practical magic. At the end of the day, they often eat dinner with the Troupe, but if the Troupe isn't around they eat in the Planetarium. Then, the time until they go to bed is spent reading or scratching out work until everybody is asleep. Traditionally, every dragon in the Roost wears the Starlight Cloak as both a kind of uniform and as a badge of honor. It's a symbol of pride in their clan and in the work they do, and most dragons rarely take theirs off except to wash them.

While news has reached them of new islands forming off the coast, packing up and leaving their home behind is a difficult decision to make. The pools of lava are used for many purposes. Some dragons, particularly those who aren't fire-born, use them to practice techniques that will work against Fire dragons weaponizing their home to use against them. Those who have the skill work forges, creating weapons and armor for the clan. Any dragon who can be spared to work construction joins in strengthening, repairing, and building up the wall that encircles the territory. So far, they have not been attacked very much, but revolutionaries in the heartland of the Wastes are not treated kindly by those who want those lava pools to contribute to their [i]own[/i] wealth.

Many of them are simply for everyone's safety: don't leave the walls alone, don't do anything within the walls that could result in serious injury, don't disturb those on guard duty, mind the magma. Anything that can get someone hurt, or set the cause back, is something nobody should be doing. There are shifts in guard duty up on the walls, which rotate every couple of hours to keep fresh eyes up there all the time. The goal of these guards is to watch for trouble, not to drive it out, but those handy with a bow end up on guard duty more often simply for the way their skill can be applied. Beastclans are to be treated as friends first, until they treat the Revolutionaries as enemies. The Revolutionaries' quarrel is not with them, and if it does turn into a fight, it must never be because the [i]dragons[/i] got aggressive. The clan is supposed to be a place of peace, not another hostile entity. If someone comes looking for shelter, it is granted. Nobody speaks of the Beastclan watchers who keep an eye on them until it's certain they won't hurt the cause, because to reveal their presence would be to reduce their effectiveness.

He has had too many experiences with corruption and abuse of power to put himself at a higher rank than his fellows; in his eyes, they are all working together toward the same goal. Serving different roles, but always equal. The other members know better. He is the leader because they choose to follow him, not because he elevated himself. They want him to guide them, and so he does. [/columns] [columns][b][center][size=5][font=Century Gothic]Healers[/b][/size][/center] In any attempt at revolution, healers are vital to the effort. Knowledge of medicine is what keeps injured dragons going. With numbers already so small, losing a single dragon could cripple the revolution. Those with healing magic, especially, are important for short-term healing, so as not to let any injuries slow anybody down.

[/columns] [columns][b][center][size=5][font=Century Gothic]Warriors[/b][/size][/center] Even in actions which avoid direct battle, dragons who are skilled at combat are important. They can serve as guards, as scouts, as saboteurs -- the more versatile a dragon's skills, the more they can contribute. The simple ability to fight with tooth and claw must not be underestimated.

His entire life has been one long experience of abuse of power, and he wants no part of it. He intends to create a peaceful world if it kills him, and he's starting with the Ashfall Wastes, creating a sanctuary for all those who need it, dragon and Beastclan alike. He resists the call of the Search; he came across his Charge once before, but not for long enough to reveal himself, and now he's far too busy to go looking again.[/columns] [columns][b][center][size=5][font=Century Gothic]Fei[/b][/size][/center] Once the heiress of a powerful family, Fei joined the Revolutionaries first as an act of rebellion. Once she started to realize what injustices her family was taking part of, she began working alongside Flamewrath to try to lessen the damage. Her family didn't take well to this, and disowned her promptly, but Fei simply went to live with the Revolutionaries. She is their ambassador, negotiating with allies and enemies of the Revolutionaries alike.

He is plagued by the feeling that he inevitably will be dragged back, despite the promises of the Revolutionaries to protect him at any cost. Despite his fears, Alniyat is a capable and strategic warrior. His small stature encourages him to look for weaknesses in his enemies, and he knows that all he has to do is apply pressure to the right point to cause the whole thing to collapse. The Revolutionaries are short-staffed, and this is invaluable talent.

He and his herd were driven from their territory by a clan of hostile dragons, and their primary goal for a long time was to gain their territory back. Now, though, they have pledged themselves to the Revolutionaries; making a world where everybody can live in peace is a more popular goal than going to war once again. Aumon is not a peaceful person, but he isn't a warmonger, either. He believes in an eye for an eye; that which is inflicted on one can be given in kind. Flamewrath has gained his trust, so Aumon will repay his kindness.

They joined the Revolutionaries because they approve of Flamewrath's peace-first policy, and they serve as an important ambassador of the Revolutionaries. Manticores rarely listen to dragons, but they might be swayed by one of their own. Khirye also mediates disputes between the other Beastclan factions, and they have a reputation for being patient, fair, and decisive. They are a unique creature, who has earned the respect of everyone; they wield enough authority that their decisions are final, and everyone ends up with a piece of what they wanted.[/columns] [columns][b][center][size=5][font=Century Gothic]Shask[/b][/size][/center] Khirye's mate is an aggressive manticore whose first instinct is always to fight. She is fiercely loyal, and protective of those she cares for, and every one of the Revolutionaries falls under that umbrella. She is willing to fight at any cost for her family, and is a valuable warrior.

Most of what he makes is for the Beastclan members, but on occasion he will come up with a new design for the dragons.[/columns] [columns][b][center][size=5][font=Century Gothic]Zhezhah[/b][/size][/center] The leader of the Serthis faction of the Revolutionaries, Zhezhah is a very serious man. He believes in the cause, but not enough to trust every visitor to the clan. He has taken it upon himself to send his Serthis comrades to shadow each of the visitors; if they are safe, good. If they aren't, it's a lucky thing he caught it.
