He had a way with robotics that enthused his family, who then in turn vastly encouraged his pursuits as a youngling. However, when he came of age, the freedom to just create and thing stopped flat. He was promptly put to work, and had to build what he was told when he was told to. Spark was a creative at heart, and this crushed his very soul. The monotony of day to day life got to him, so one day, he just left. His intention was to find a Nature clan that wasn't against technology; He figured that Naturelings wouldn't care at all what technology he made. It took some finding, but he eventually found Starsky, who were entirely open to the idea of advancement. He was, however, dumbfounded at just how primitive they lived. Needless to say, Starsky now has every modern amenity that he could build, from a full kitchen to bathroom to indoor heating and cooling. [size=5][font=Georgia][b][i][color=#c4a060]>>personality[/color][/i][/b][/font][/size] Spark is very intelligent when it comes to problem solving inanimate things. He can engineer his way out of the Behemoth if given a rusty spoon and two rubber bands. Unlike many others of his ilk, however, Spark is considered absolutely gorgeous to everyone, no matter breed flight or gender. He prides himself on this, and has become almost obsessed with cleanliness. He despises any sort of dirt or grime on his person or his belongings, and his lab always sparkles. He even once tried to create a robot that would clean anything, and clean anything it did, after it was found in a hole nearly a mile deep in the soil. While he may be a bit stand-offish, he abhors rudeness and will always try to be as polite as possible.

The fact that he survived as long as he has is considered a miracle, a blessing from the Gods. His clan, however, decided he needed a better place to live, a place where he could be taken care of. They had heard of Starsky's sanctuary and away he went. Being as charismatic as he is, he fit himself into the clan in no time. He has the fascination with space that his home flight imbued into him still, but doesn't take it as many do in a scholarly way. He is an artist and uses the cosmos as an inspiration for his paintings and crafts. Often times, he feels guilty over his inability to really contribute, so has focused his energy on the one thing he can do, which is at least make things pretty. [size=5][font=Georgia][b][i][color=#c4a060]>>personality[/color][/i][/b][/font][/size] He's incredibly friendly and even those who hold a disdain towards his flight or breed will find themselves liking him. He still struggles with accepting his limits and accepting himself as he is, but with the plethora of those like him in Starsky, he has certainly come a long way.

His skill with magic and astrology went far beyond those of his family. No one quite knew what to make of him, or how to handle him. His clan tried to force him away from such things, towards what a Wildclaw of Nature should be interested in, yet nothing seemed to sway the young dragon. He soon set out from his birthplace, wanting to find somewhere he could belong, that his abilities would be appreciated. His travels led him from the Arcane isles to the seas of Water, but no one ever quite seemed to accept him as he was. Suggestions were made to hide his eyes, to change them, to change himself. But why? Why should it matter where he was born? What shape his body took? The stars directed him back to his homelands, the lands of Nature, yet he didn't quite know why. But he followed. He always followed the stars. He followed them to a town situated in a meadow clearing, with dragons of all kinds. He approached the place hesitantly, and for the first time, for the very first time, no one thought ill of his eyes with his abilities. No one gave it a second thought, for he wasn't the first. Starsky welcomed him among their starry-eyed flower buds and he finally felt at home. He now serves as the resident seer, always working to hone his abilities, always looking to further his relationship with the stars.

The trees that border it have been woven and shaped into walls and supports for breezy buildings made of light stone, crystal, and wood. Flowers and vines twirl around pillars and spires. Upon closer inspection, the architecture has intricate, swirling designs worked into it. Everything flows together, with many rounded motifs and leaf-like designs. While most dragons could fly up to the higher buildings, stairs are built into the designs so fluidly they appear to be spilling out. The buildings spill out across the meadow, interspersed with gardens. Pathways lined with flowers and bushes connect them, channels of water pathing along side them, forming canals for water-going drakes and providing irrigation. The buildings seem to be of two different aesthetics, divided across the meadow. One part is very bright and airy, bursting with color and swirling motifs. Another part is very warm and stable with an earthy, warm color to the buildings, each of which looks very sturdy and enclosed. No matter where you head, however, flowers of many soft colors dot the soft grasses between constructions. While it looks very scattered from a glance, wandering will show that it is deftly designed with ease of navigation in mind. Lanterns hang from tree branches or are suspended mid-air. Softly glowing flowers also add to the illumination. Night is safe and comfortable here. ----- Being in the middle of Nature's lands, the meadow Starsky inhabits is fairly temperate. Their proximity to the large, winding river that cuts through keeps the temperature comfortable. They do experience every season, unlike the more northeastern parts of the labyrinth. Depending on which way fronts move, winter can be mild or somewhat severe. The combined efforts of the magically attuned dragons and the expert designers have made it so even severe winters are manageable. It is tradition to fill the trees with lights once all their leaves have fallen, and to celebrate taking them down when they start to bud again. Different flowers bloom during all seasons, there's never a shortage of color, even in the depths of winter.
