TOPIC | [LORE] The Shimmerspire
Hi, please don't post here while I am still adding things. If you have questions or you'd like to let me know what you think feel free to PM or comment on my profile!

This will be an intro post explaining the basics of the settlement, including some photos.

The Shimmerspire

Located on the edge of the Snowsquall Tundra, the Shimmerspire is a towering technomagical structure constructed of arcane ice--a rare and forever unmelting material that is teeming with ancient magic that is largely not understood. The structure itself was recently reopened after a millennia of dormancy, le and now welcomes a bustling community of dragons of all elements and breeds.

The structure is split into 3 sections. The first is the ground floor and first few levels. The open space contains a number of buildings which wrap around a circular dock for boats coming in and out of the Southern Gate, which is a portcullis opening to a small ocean cove.

The community that's taken up residence in this space possess a wide variety of skills.

[quote=Infodump] Dragon names work as follows; [LIST=1] [*][color=red]Chosen name.[/color] This is picked by the dragon themselves. Their chosen name can actually be several, or quite lengthy, depending on the dragon. Within the birth clan, this is always the name used. Other than that, it tends to be used by those who are on friendly terms. [*][color=green]Bloodline marker.[/color] This is a record of the dragon's family tree. This name is kept confidentially by the clan's record keeper till the dragon in question is old enough to start looking for mating partners. It's considered invasive to ask for another's unless you are considering nesting with them or are searching for biological relatives. [*][color=blue]Clutch name.[/color] Because child-rearing is done communally, every egg hatched within a certain period is raised within a group. Dragons in a clutch are seen as siblings, even if they are not directly related. Clutch names are generally themed after their elemental flight, but will often hint at a notable event that happened recently within the clan. For polite conversation or with strangers, this is typically the name used. [/LIST] Example: [color=red]Vermilion[/color] [color=green]Eirzam[/color] [color=blue]Spellsealer[/color] [/quote] Talk about nesting, labor division, allocation of resources, UBI.
