neither of my hatchling caretakers are the soft dragons youd initially expect them to be, gwynne wears armor and stands tall and intimidating, but you can find hatchlings climbing her like a mountain and while she's sweet to them she'll stare an intruder down with a glare that could kill.
and despite being the more physically intimating of the pair, gywnne is the
more approchable one. esta comes off as stuck up and prudish, a stick in the mud who loves organization and the last one you'd expect to find surrounded by messy, noisy hatchlings? yet there she is, somehow tolerating the dirt-covered mirror hatchling nomming on her tail feathers.
pre... is a water diviner who doesnt... believe in magic?? i dont know how she does it but somehow she manages? ¯\_(?)_/¯
and back at it again with the ridges who love water, there's this kid:
who also factors into typhoon's story, surprisingly. Ty
activly ignored finding a charge, believing charges to be a waste of time, and why leave when hes needed at home? lo and behold a certain ridgeback hatchling was aggravatingly slippery and would follow ty around with stars in his eyes. he even managed to slip away from riverwind,
the clan leader to follow typhoon, which is Bad because typhoon is a fighter and a hunter, the coliseum is no place for a young dragon so regrettably, typhoon trained and watched over him. its only recently that typhoon woke up in the middle of the night with an 'oh
crap he's my charge' moment. his charge found
him instead of the other way around.
but to be fair to ty, he isnt alone in that, his brother nox, also isnt bothering to find a change, except he's less of a 'charges are complete bull' mindset and more of a 'i dont... really care' one. maybe its a family thing? unlike his brother, he doesnt have a charge.
akos is a soft-spoken, delicate, pristine feathered
metalworker. most are shocked by his profession, and by the strength that it takes since the way he looks doesnt exactly line up which what youd expect from a blacksmith. somehow he has also avoided getting his feathers singed or burnt, leaving his plumage a stark, shining white that he doesnt bother to hide.
feronia is a nature spirit, and instead of being
flowery and bright shes a fierce fighter, who's ready to fight tooth and claw to drag those who challenge the safety of what she protects to the dirt and use them as fertilizer! ^^. but if you offer her tea it might placate her.
it isnt final in her lore yet, but someone described one of her
outfit plans as a 'deranged druid' and i.. kind of like the idea a lot, instead of healing, she causes harm, spreading a flakey, ash-like rot where she steps foot, plants shrivel up and twist in her wake? (she also seems like a soft and vulnerable dragon, but instead shes sharp and dangerous?)
for being undead and encased in ice, she's actually quite kind and nice. none of that cold-shoulder or stone-faced stuff around here, she's warm-hearted mom tbh.
mars is feronia's mate and is as every bit of belligerent as she is, but where feronia is wild savagery, he's planned out tactics, and they balance each other out nicely.
he still is one to always suggest a fight as the first solution to problems tho
horizon here is based on black holes, and for things that suck in matter for them to never see the light of day again, you could expect a more sinister purpose to his
gravitating personality, heck, his name comes from the event
horizion of black holes, which is said to be the point of no return, cross that and the object's fate is sealed. when in actuality, its just really hard to
not become friends with horizon, he's a snap with a big smile, and a huge, friendly heart.
and i cant believe i forgot these two, aerius, whose personality is as stale a breeze as he is. he's not flighty or excitable as spirals usually are, but likes to takes things with room to take a breather. but dont mistake his
dead personality for a cruel dragon. he cares for others just fine, but would rather be the one to sit on the sidelines and watch things happen.
and eira is a nocturne who has no time for jokes or tricks, she's strict and too the book, and likes to see things in order, allowing slight margins for error and thinks that pranks can distract from those things.
