My own personal lore is quite expansive, and if I find a random scry I like, chances are I add lore to it and expand upon it to make them part of my stories. This thread will be my own personal dumping grounds to show off my lore. There is part of my own clan's lore in my Profile, and certain dragons of mine have lore of their own, which I will list below.
PLEASE DO NOT POST HERE! If you want to join the RPs below, that's fine with me, this will simply provide lore for those threads.
This lore will also apply to my RPs War for Sornieth and Malware Rising.

Overall Lore:
For as long as any dragon can remember, Sornieth has been peaceful, for the
most part; with occasional skirmishes between clans, but no full-scale wars. This changed one day when the Arcane Plague swept through the Scarred Wasteland shortly after a young red Plague Ridgeback named Nightshade became a warrior in his clan. Nightshade was one of the worst recorded cases, and both his appearance and mind were irreparably altered. Nightshade lost his mind and began to scheme how to conquer Sornieth for himself. He gained many supporters in his clan, and quickly gained power, soon becoming leader. Nightshade offered his former friend Barrett, a Fire Guardian, the chance to become his deputy and rule alongside him, but Barrett-sensing, and frightened, by the change in his friend-refused. Angered by Barrett's refusal, Nightshade tried to imprison Barrett, but the Guardian escaped, though not before one of Nightshade's supporters slashed him over the eye, leaving him with the scar he now has today. A few days later, on his way out of the Scarred Wasteland, Barrett nearly crashed into a wandering Shadow Skydancer named Kiefer, and the two had an argument until they learned they were both fleeing Nightshade, who had made quick work of making his intentions known. They decided to set up their own clan to rival Nightshade's, and headed for Fire territory, finding dragons along the way to recruit. They soon got the help of a Fire Guardian from the venerable clan known as Volcano Clan by the Great Furnace in the Ashfall Waste, and, after some thought, joined them. Meanwhile, as Nightshade conquered clan after clan, his army expanded, and he named it "Toxin Flight", since he had the Genes Poison and Toxin. Barrett became the leader of his newly formed "Storm Clan", named such because he wanted to storm across Sornieth to stop Nightshade's cruel advance, and made Kiefer his deputy.
Recently, there has been a surge in the "monsters" known as Malware
dragons, with one engineer actually joining Nightshade: a mad Coatl named Claude. As revealed by the leader of the Shifting Expanse's Canyon Clan, Thorn, and Claude himself, he used to be part of Canyon Clan and was one of its hardest workers. Claude was originally an Iridescent/Shimmer/Basic Black/Black/Red Lightning dragons until he was unluckily struck by lightning. He was so badly injured that he fell ill, and his appearance changed. He became deathly white, his wings became red, and he gained a strange red Circuit pattern, much like the Malware dragons everyone feared. Claude's clan voted to banish him, and he left the territory, being found in the Tangled Wood by an engineer, who taught him his craft. Soon, Claude was making his own Malwares, and he enjoyed the new power he held over those he experimented on. However, they were found out by a nearby Shadow clan, and they made a break for it. They split up in an effort to lose their pursuers, and while Claude got away despite his pale coloring, his teacher was caught and killed. Claude moved to the Scarred Wasteland to continue his inhumane experiments, and soon found Canyon Clan had moved there out of fear, and took the opportunity to begin tormenting his old clan. Using the Malwares he had already made, Claude managed to capture almost the entire clan, with Thorn-the new leader-his deputy Brock and a few other warriors escaping. The warriors regrouped then attacked Claude, saving some of their clanmates, while being forced to kill the ones that had already been transformed, including Brock's mate and daughter. The mighty Earth Ridgeback Brock was driven mad by fury and grief for his family, so he tried to go after Claude himself, but the crafty Coatl escaped, letting his Malwares die so he could flee to make more. When Nightshade came into power and learned of the strange Malware subspecies, he sought Claude out and requested his help in exchange for being given Storm Clan and their allies Blazing Clan to experiment on once the Ridgeback rogue conquered Sornieth, to which Claude eagerly agreed.
Lately, in a major battle, Nightshade was buried
underground by Storm Clan's forces, and his grip on the land was loosened as the clans he conquered were freed from his sadistic rule. However, his supporters, now led by the Lightning Guardian Gideon with the Fire Wildclaw Talon as his second-in-command, continued to cause trouble. Among the eggs they stole were a Fire egg from Annex Clan in the Fire territory, a Water egg from Reef Clan in the Water territory, a Nature egg from Vine Clan in the Nature territory, a Plague egg from Wyrm Clan in the Plague territory, and a Light egg from Bay Clan in the Light territory. These eggs were rescued and raised by Storm Clan, becoming close friends known as the Storming Five. The Five set out to find where they came from, and found themselves entangled in a plot to release Nightshade from his underground prison, and in the old tale of a cruel and sadistic Wildclaw emperor who once ruled Sornieth with an iron claw. They found the remnants of two different Nocturne-like dragons; one known as Wasps, who can camoflauge, and the other known as Ghosts, the stalkers of the night. The Five befriended the Wasps, and helped them escape, but their leader, Abyss, sought to bring his kind to the power they once had under the Emperor, but Storm-the friend of the Five-wanted to live in peace. The clan split into two clans: Abyss' Toxin Clan and Storm's Wasp Clan. Also released from the Wasps' underground prison we're the Ghosts, the Wasps' hated enemies. The Five were heading back to their home after helping Wasp Clan settle into the Viridian Labyrinth when they were forced to stop a conflict between the clan and the Ghosts attacking them. Strangely, the Ghosts called Zuro, the Light dragon, "the Lightbringer", citing their own ancient lore of a dragon that would free them from their earthen prison, fight a Plagueborn monster, and bring peace to the land. Though confused by this, Zuro led the Ghosts and the Wasps alongside the Sornieth United Army to fight Nightshade one more time for their land and their freedom. As thanks for their help, the Gods granted both the Ghosts and the Wasps permission to breed in their territories if they wished, to diversify their elements and grow in numbers once more.
Now, with Nightshade's demise, a new enemy, an ancient evil, has arisen, a cruel
Wildclaw known only as the Emperor. With help from Claude, he now has a claim in the Ashfall Waste, and has begun to establish his old policies, but the mighty warriors of the new Sornieth United Army, the combined might of Storm, Blazing, Canyon, Tidal, Crystal, Shifting, Wasp, and Ghost Clans, stand in his way. Helping the New United Army are the Emperor's old enemies of Ayng the Nature Wildclaw, Cindi the Arcane Fae, Crystoff the Water Guardian, Juri the Ice Tundra, Falcon the Plague Mirror, Beamer the Pearlcatcher and Sunstrike the Imperial of the Light Flight, Rod the Lightning Ridgeback, Crush the Earth Snapper, Slip the Spiral and Reid the Skydancer of the Wind Flight, Flint the Nocturne, Ember the Coatl, and Spector the Ghost. With these new friends and allies, the New United Army began a campaign against the Emperor and Claude to end their equally terrible reigns of terror on Sornieth. But how long will it take? And what will it cost?
