TOPIC | The Fates (Subspecies) (Status= WIP)
[center][b][u][size=5][size=5]Lore[/size][/size][/u][/b][/center]
Beings outside of reality watch over the flow of time and space. Though not from Sornieth, they choose to take the forms of dragons when taking a closer look at this world in order to blend in.
They are the Fates, and this world is but one book in the series they write into existence.
The Fates will often make homes in small pocket dimensions created in ruins and caves. The most prestigious Fates live on an island off the coast of the main continent of Sornieth, in a massive communal temple known as The Cathedral of Fate. This secret place simply does not exist to those not given permission to enter it.
----
Long ago, only a bit after the First Age, The Fates of Sornieth found themselves in a civil war. Fighting for control were two sides; one calling themselves Arch-Fates, while the other referred to itself as the Anarchist-Fates, or Anti-Fates.
What each side wanted was simple; the Arch-Fates- lead by Casious

desired a more hands on approach with their characters. They wanted to live among their creations. Communicate with them and be known by them.
Fighting broke out. Fate against Fate. Characters were often caught in the crossfire, their lives shattered by unseen and unknown forces.
In the end, the Arch-Fates stood victorious. Mesmera and those who fought alongside her were cast out from the Cathedral of Fate. Excommunicated from their people, their power over Sornieth faded...but they were not willing to fade from existence...
[center][b][u][size=5][size=5]Personality[/size][/size][/u][/b][/center]
Generally Fates are secretive. To interact with their creation is a treat, but they cannot allow anyone to know of their true nature, nor can they interfere with the natural order of the world they visit.
There are three ranks of Fate: Archivist, Author, and Assistant. Archivists are the most rare and powerful, Authors are the most well known and the most common, and Assistants are the lowest ranking but most socially aware rank.
Archivist Fates spend their days cataloging everything made within the world, keeping the other Fates in check by being the final say in who can create what and where. They usually have a preferred story archetype they enjoy cataloging, such as love stories or horror stories. Think of them as...specialty librarians, keeping order in their favorite section of the massive library of Fate. Archivists do write, but not their own characters or situations. They instead write down interlinking narratives within their Authors' stories, helping to condense plotlines.
Author Fates create the beings, whom they call Characters, in the world. Authors are very protective of their Characters in the sense that they will not allow another Fate to write or otherwise try to manipulate their creation unless that creation is being co-authored. Do not be fooled; they do not necessarily have a love for the Character as an individual, but as a creator wants to protect their intellectual property. Typically, Authors are loyal to one Archivist, whom they trust to record their Characters and their stories into the Archivist's library. This in turn allows the Author to worry less about losing their older Characters when they create new ones, and keep their work area tidy.
Assistant Fates help out either of the other ranks with their duties, and take great pride in doing so. Their social standing is linked with their master, and they are known to shun Assistants of lessor or disgraced Authors or Archivists. Typically Assistants will prefer to work alongside Archivists, seeing them as the most respected class, but to work for a well respected Author is nothing to turn one's nose at, either.

Fates all wear a hood of some nature. To not have a hood is to be naked. They also tend to favor extravagant or eccentric clothing. Flowing fabric, glowing accessories, and otherworldly attire appeal to a Fate's enigmatic nature. Looking approachable isn't at the forefront of their fashion, instead looking to appear ethereal and alien, perhaps to deter Characters from wanting to get close to them.

ARCHIVISTS
Snapper: Snappers do not create, but instead archive all that has been made in the world. They will typically have several Pearlcatcher Assistants. A Snapper does not usually bother with going out and learning of the world themselves, as they have much more important things to do than to get their claws dirty with the creations of the others. Snappers are truly impartial overseers among the Fates, and are highly regarded for their wisdom and foresight.
Obelisk: Though not as prized as a Snapper Archivist, Obelisks are still considered high ranking Fates capable of the sacred and all consuming task of keeping track of and making sense of the stories of other Fates. They are commonly more creative than their Snapper counterparts, but not always as detailed.
AUTHORS
Skydancer: The main Author class of the Fates. Skydancers are known to create a multitude of Characters that they then watch over with a somewhat indifferent eye. They use their scrying pools to check on their Characters, and their very essence is used as ink to write their creations' stories onto their scrolls. They typically have an 'aesthetic', or a particular Character archetype and/or plotline archetype they are best known for. It is not uncommon for them to have a Guardian, Pearlcatcher, or Imperial Assistant. Of the three a Guardian is most likely, and Pearlcatcher is least likely, as they prefer Archivists.
Guardian: Another Author class, Guardians are usually less about quantity and more interested in creating a few Characters that they them watch over much more jealously than the other Fates. They can be controlling to the point of having to be reigned in, but treat their creations' stories as their charges and want to make sure that they go about their plots the way the Guardian wrote it out. Some Guardian Fates have their Author status revoked due to being too controlling and will often be charged to help others keep tabs on the latter's Characters as well as generally help with the creation process. When this happens, they are placed on the lowest rung of the Assistant class' social standings. They do not typically want an Assistant, desiring full control of their creations.
ASSISTANTS
Pearlcatcher: Particularly good at scrying (regardless of being water aligned or not), these Fates typically help Snapper Fates archive the world by using their pearl as a crystal ball. Other Fates must be near their special scrying pool in order to scry, and their scries are typically limited to their own creations. A Pearlcatcher's pride and standing in their society is linked to the regard of their Snapper higher-up. When a Pearlcatcher is assigned to a Snapper, they dedicate their lives to being a loyal Assistant to them. Pearlcatchers may also create Characters, but this is a lessor priority to them. While they will occasionally serve an Author, this is seen as a step down from Archivist.
OTHERS
Imperial: A jack-of-all-trades Fate. Imperials are known to take on any job and rank depending on their personality. This makes them fairly rare and occasionally looked down upon by Fates who do not like so many variables given to one being.
Fae: Another Fate able to take on more than one class, though they do not usually make very good Archivists due to their size. The most common Fae Fate class is Assistant, with a good amount of Authoring on the side. They have been known to simply stick to Author as well, but in that field are more likely to take up co-authoring.

Rules
- Please follow the social structure listed above.
- All Fates must wear a hood to be counted as a true Fate.
- Authors can only write for your lair. Dragons who have been sold/gifted/traded out of your lair can no longer be written for w/o express permission from the new owner. Dragons you have exalted can be written for.
- Archivists can only collect the works of your Authors unless another's Author has asked to be archived as well.
- It is highly preferred (but not expressly needed) that your Fate have at least a paragraph of info about themselves in their bio. These are lore driven dragons, after all.
- Fates cannot have ridiculous names such as 'Babybear' or 'HereComesTheSun'. Any registered Fate with such a name will be removed from the official list, and any hopeful Fate will be denied until the name is changed.
- Fates cannot be Fandragons. They must be their own being. The only current exception to this would be if they are based off of your own OC.
Preemptive Q and A
Q: Can *insert headpiece here* be counted as a hood?
A: Maybe, but if not you will have to pick one of the approved hoods, sorry.
Q: Will other breeds be allowed to be Fates?
A: Perhaps as new breeds are added. It's not like I'm picking only my favorite breeds to be Fates. I dislike Snappers but adore Coatls, but according to the lore of the breeds Snappers would make good Archivist Fates, but Coatls don't really fit a Fate role of any kind as of now. Meanwhile Galors would make great Fates, but sadly cannot have Starmap and Constellation genes, so they cannot be Fates. If any of these things change, though, they will be added to the official list. And hopefully over time I will be able to find good roles for other breeds that I would really love to have as Fates.
Q: Can I breed Fates?
A: Currently Fates cannot be officially 'bred' to make more Fates, at least not lore wise. Fates do not have a need to reproduce, and as such any dragon who is a Fate does not have families of any sort as far as their lore is concerned. So no; you cannot say that you breed Fates as Fates, but you can certainly breed your Fate dragons to make more dragons. Keep in mind that this may change in the future if I can think of a good reason for it to.
Q: Are colors/tertiary genes associated with anything?
A: Tertiary genes (and sometimes their colors) are being logged currently with their associations! Please stand by as I come up with these; there are a LOT of tertiary genes!
Q: Why Starmap/Constellation?
A: Fates are ethereal and mystical beings, and no other genes scream that more than Starmap and Constellation~

Tertiary Gene Abilities
Ink Fate
#711822
Gene: Capsule
Fate Type: Capsuled Fate/Ink Fate
Most Common in: Authors
Least Common in: Assistants
Traits: One of the most varying tertiaries in Fates, capsule may mean different things depending on its coloration since it is a more corporeal representation of a Fate's essence. It is most common in Authors, typically used as ink. As such, it has more meaning for the characters an Author creates than it has any major significance to the Fate itself. It is not impossible, however, for a Fate to create characters that could also show behaviors from different colors as well, usually with the meanings intertwining in some way. It is very difficult for a Capsuled Fate to create characters outside of their color's meanings, and even attempting it usually still dooms a character to end up exhibiting many of those behaviors.
-Whites: signify a Fate who is more likely to create pure, innocent characters.
-Reds: indicate bloodshed being a core part of the character's story, be it by their own hand or another's.
-Oranges: generally change meaning depending on how much yellow or red is within them, though it typically combines both in varying doses.
-Yellow and golds: show that a Fate's creations are more likely to have the follies of greed, pride, and/or envy, but also have the chance to be very happy.
-Green: characters will have an adventurous spirit and be connected more to the natural order, but can be a bit of a lost soul.
-Blues: a character will be very spiritually linked to unseen forces and is more likely to exhibit unusual powers.
-Purples: like oranges, can have varying meaning depending on the amount of blue and red are within them; the more blue the purple is, the more spiritual the character, while more red purples signify a greater tie to blood in some way.
-Pinks: a character is more likely to be a very social being, even to the point of being very persuasive and captivating to others.
-Blacks: almost always signify that the character will live a harsh life, be it of their own making or others.
-Orca: being as unique as it is, creates characters that are more likely to teeter on the edge of morality and immorality.
Circuited Fate
#712005
Gene: Circuit
Fate Type: Circuited Fate
Most Common in: Authors (Faes)
Least Common in: Assistants
Traits: Fates with circuit tend to be excellent co-authors, able to effortlessly connect plot points into unique narratives that stories on their own would not have come close to. As such, they are sought after by Authors looking to take their writing to the next level. They are also most likely to be friends of Zephre. Circuit Fates also have the unique ability of being able to manipulate electronics in their character's vicinity, allowing for mild communication or even attempts to sway their creation in certain decisions.
Contoured Fate
#712015
Gene: Contour
Fate Type: Contoured Fate
Most Common in: Authors (Guardians)
Least Common in: Archivists
Traits: Those with contour are known 'purists' when it comes to archetypes. They like having characters for specific purposes, and will rarely look to flip a character type on its head.
Cracked Fate
#712021
Gene: Crackle
Fate Type: Cracked Fate
Most Common in: Authors
Least Common in: Archivists
Traits: Crackle often has one of two meanings; either the Fate loves breaking minds, or they love breaking social standards. Or both. Either way; those with crackle are seen as loose cannons who create equally unhinged characters.
Gilded Fate
#712027
Gene: Filigree
Fate Type: Filigreed Fate/Gilded Fate
Most Common in: Archivists
Least Common in: Assistants
Traits: Fates with Filigree are more likely to be Archivists, but other classes have been known to exhibit this gene. Filigree can signify prestige in a Fate and is loved for its beauty. Filigreed Fates often hold higher positions than those without, but often comes at the price of having trouble empathizing with other Fates. It has been noted that those with this gene are more likely to be more powerful than other Fates, though this is not always the case. The polished gemstones in this gene are pockets of highly concentrated essence, and light up when power is being used.
Fairy Fate
#712033
Gene: Firefly
Fate Type: Fairy Fate
Most Common in: All
Least Common in: N/A
Traits: To have little light sprites fluttering around a Fate at all times means they have extra helpers! An Archivist or Assistant will often have these little creatures assist in organization, while an Author can use them as 'eyes and ears' in the outside world, giving their Assistants a break from time to time. These Fireflies have minor sentience that can be overridden by their Fate.
Bejeweled Fate
#712034
Gene: Gembound
Fate Type: Gembound Fate/Bejeweled Fate
Most Common in: Authors
Least Common in: Assistants
Traits: When a Fate has Gembound, it usually means that they are very well known in the community. It's believed that each gemstone that grows on the hide of a Fate represents a major storyline that has been successfully seen out from beginning to end, from existence to extinction. Whether or not this is true is hard to say, but Gembound Fates are highly respected, sometimes even more-so than those with Filigree!
Ghostly Fate
#712037
Gene: Ghost
Fate Type: Ghostly Fate/Deathly Fate
Most Common in: Authors
Least Common in: Assistants
Traits: A Fate with Ghost is almost always a trouble maker. Mild cases tend to include making more volatile characters who can easily mess with the balance of other stories, while the most extreme cases often include attempts to kill or claim the characters of others. While these behaviors are not always the case, even Ghostly Fates who don't do these things feel a strange urge on occasion to commit unlawful acts against their fellow Fate. Ghostly Fates also have a habit of working on a character's story well after the character has died, effectively creating ghosts.
Glimmering Fate
#712041
Gene: Glimmer
Fate Type: Glimmering Fate/Glittering Fate/Glitter Fate
Most Common in: All
Least Common in: N/A
Traits: Glimmer is a prideful gene on Fates, and those with it will often show high respect for those who can prove they've earned it. Others they will look down upon until proven worthy of their time and energy. Most Fates with Glimmer are goal oriented and can get caught up in the details, but the results are characters with real depth and stories with powerful consequences for the world they're written for. Archivists and Assistants with Glimmer are sought after for their amazing organization and proofreading abilities. In Pearcatchers, Glimmer is thought to make their scrying prowess even more detailed than the average Assistant.
Glowworm Fate
#809058
Gene: Glowtail
Fate Type: Glowtail Fate/Glowworm Fate
Most Common in: All
Least Common in: N/A
Traits: While all Fates are creative by nature, Glowworm Fates are thought to be on a whole new level. Their magic residing in their tail (as opposed to their eyes or mouths) seems to cause them to really think outside the box. Glowworm Authors are often better at world building than they are at character creation, while Glowworm Archivists are known to be able to see all the paths a character may take without the need for an Assistant. Glowworm Assistants have been known to be so good at multitasking that it isn't uncommon for them to dabble with co-authoring on the side.
Spotted Fate
#4461278
Gene: Polkadot
Fate Type: Spotted Fate/Dotted Fate
Most Common in: Assistants
Least Common in: Archivists
Traits: Almost disorienting with many dots blotting out the stars, Spotted Fates tend to get 'lost in the weeds' when it comes to details. Assistants will sometimes become too devoted to one part of a task, Authors may take too long describing non-essentials in their stories, and Archivists have a habit of getting too specific with their organization methods. On the plus side; Fates with Polkadots are often very tidy in their field.
Jagged Fate
#712048
Gene: Keel
Fate Type: Keeled Fate/Jagged Fate
Most Common in: All
Least Common in: N/A
Traits: If a Fate has Keel, it is almost always a sure sign of a battle hardened soul. A Fate who has had to stand its ground against those who wish to tarnish the Cathedral or do harm to its fellow Fate. Though rare, these Fates are lauded for their might, and even if they now work as an Archivist, Author, or Assistant, they are typically more built for war...
Laced Fate
#712051
Gene: Lace
Fate Type: Lacy Fate/Laced Fate
Most Common in: Assistants
Least Common in: Archivists
Traits: Most common in Assistants, Lace shows an air of dignity and grace that makes a fanciful statement. An Assistant with this gene is seen as a cut above the rest. Whether or not it has any real special capabilities is debatable.
Wild Fate
#712057
Gene: Okapi
Fate Type: Okapi Fate/Wild Fate
Most Common in: All
Least Common in: N/A
Traits: Fates with Okapi are rebels and trendsetters. They are known to cause trouble in the hierarchy of the Fates, but also for being some of the most creative problem solvers around.
Opalescent Fate
#712061
Gene: Opal
Fate Type: Opalescent Fate/Geode Fate
Most Common in: All
Least Common in: N/A
Traits: A unique gene where the magic of a Fate is so powerful that it has seeped through their very being, crystallizing along their hide. Any Fate with this gene is almost guaranteed to be more powerful than the average Fate. The more wild and bright the coloring, the more powerful the Fate. If the coloring really pops against the Fate's other coloring, it's thought that the Fate may be unbalanced in their power.
Fancy Fate
#713075
Gene: Peacock
Fate Type: Fancy Fate/All-Seeing Fate
Most Common in: Assistants/Archivists
Least Common in: Authors
Traits: Acting as many extra eyes into the written world, Fates with this gene are often amazing at quickly locating multiple details and situations that are happening at the same time as one another no matter how far away they are physically. Cause and effect are these Fate's bread and butter, and they often subscribe to the philosophy of a butterfly's wingbeats creating a hurricane across the world. Their tertiary gene can also project what they see to those around them; quite useful as an Assistant.
Elegant Fate
#713092
Gene: Ringletts
Fate Type: Ringed Fate/Elegant Fate
Most Common in: Assistants/Authors
Least Common in: Archivists
Traits: Much like Lacy Fates, Ringed Fates are seen as classy and breathtaking. Unlike Lacy Fates, Ringed Fates are also known to be a bit overambitious and easily lost in multiple projects at once, leading to a need to center themselves with a leisurely activity more often than the average Fate. This is usually done as a 'tea break' that they will have with other Elegant Fates around the same time every day in order to unwind with like-minded dragons. Elegant Fates are also well known for being uniquely creative problem solvers, and everything they do is done with a trendsetting flair.
Runic Fate
#713101
Gene: Rune
Fate Type: Runic Fate/Mystic Fate
Most Common in: Authors
Least Common in: Assistants
Traits: When an Author is blessed with runes, it means that they are the cream of the crop. Any Assistant would be proud to serve them, other Authors will want to co-author with them, and Archivists will create special bookshelves just for the writing of a Runic Author. In Archivists this gene is not as lofty, but it is still believed to mean that they are quite good at their job; able to help weave together the narratives of multiple Authors into true works of art. Sadly Assistants with this gene are often seen as 'confused', as for the most part it is not their place to write or create...but they have been known to be good at dabbling in the written art regardless.
Armored Fate
#713115
Gene: Scales
Fate Type: Scaled Fate/Armored Fate
Most Common in: Archivists (Snappers)
Least Common in: Assistants
Traits: An Armored Fate is almost always beyond ancient, which is saying something. Like the Keeled Fate they are more comfortable with fighting than most other things, but still find delight in their current trade. Typically when a Fate is seen brandishing thick scales, they are believed to be quite wise.
Besmirched Fate
#713127
Gene: Smirch
Fate Type: Besmirched Fate/Cobweb Fate
Most Common in: All
Least Common in: N/A
Traits: To be Besmirched is never a good thing for an Arch-Fate. It can mean many things. Maybe they were once in contact with a character and were somehow tainted by the experience, or perhaps they dabbled in forbidden magics that broke the laws of the world they were writing for...or maybe even something worse; they tried to steal another's creation and overexerted their influence, staining their body with their now twisted magic. No matter what brought it on, the moment a Fate is Besmirched...they are either watched carefully or even banished.
Misty Fate
#713135
Gene: Smoke
Fate Type: Smoky Fate/Misty Fate/Foggy Fate
Most Common in: All
Least Common in: N/A
Traits: Foggy Fates are often more interested in the ethereal and surreal than other Fates. Lovers of the abstract and misunderstood, those with Smoke see things that other Fates tend to miss, such as the subtle shifts in character development or the potential of a character to hold a bigger role in their story.
Spiky Fate
#714145
Gene: Spines
Fate Type: Spiny Fate/Spiky Fate
Most Common in: Archivists/Authors
Least Common in: Assistants
Traits: While other Fates tend towards the theatrical, those with spines are typically more down to earth with their work. Not everything has to be a big show, and sometimes there's no deeper meaning in the words on the page. It's okay to just see things as surface level and not go crazy trying to make something out of what nothing. Like Keeled and Armored Fates, Spiky Fates were more prominent during the war of Fates, but now are content to live the life of the average Archivist, Author, or Assistant.
Stained Fate
#714163
Gene: Stained
Fate Type: Stained Fate
Most Common in: All
Least Common in: N/A
Traits: Stars and cosmic mists dulled by an overlay of color, Stained Fates often have a difficult time being able to see their work for what it is. Stained Archivists may not be able to put together a series as quickly as others, Stained Authors may find controlling the finer details of their character's stories a challenge, and Stained Assistants can often find locating details through their scrying difficult. But what they lack in common abilities, they make up for with a special talent; being able to see the 'Fate Threads' that tie all stories together. It can take time to untangle them and decipher their meanings, but no Fate is able to see them as clearly as a Stained Fate. It's not uncommon for a Stained Fate to also be vision impaired, but their ability to see Fate Threads is unaffected by this.
Tasmanian Fate
#714193
Gene: Thylacine
Fate Type: Thylacine Fate/Thylacinidae Fate/Tasmanian Fate
Most Common in: All
Least Common in: N/A
Traits: If the Okapi Fate is a rebel, then the Tasmanian Fate is an absolute wild card. They may not be trendsetters, but they are trail blazers. Tasmanian Fates usually do not make good co-authors due to their habit of ignoring their fellow writer and coming up with their own plans for characters, but they certainly can create amazing plot twists! This Fate will bounce from one narrative to the other with ease, and never forgets a detail. Their characters, however, have a habit of going rogue and ignoring their Fate's plan for them.
Throated Fate
#714197
Gene: Underbelly
Fate Type: Throated Fate
Most Common in: All
Least Common in: N/A
Traits: Known for their lovely voices, Throated Fates often sing while they work. Archivists will create songs to help them remember their complex organization, Authors will write their stories as songs to sing to their friends, and Assistants will break into song during scrying or even to help their master with projects.

Ink Fate
#711822
Gene: Capsule
Fate Type: Capsuled Fate/Ink Fate
Most Common in: Authors
Least Common in: Assistants
Traits: One of the most varying tertiaries in Fates, capsule may mean different things depending on its coloration since it is a more corporeal representation of a Fate's essence. It is most common in Authors, typically used as ink. As such, it has more meaning for the characters an Author creates than it has any major significance to the Fate itself. It is not impossible, however, for a Fate to create characters that could also show behaviors from different colors as well, usually with the meanings intertwining in some way. It is very difficult for a Capsuled Fate to create characters outside of their color's meanings, and even attempting it usually still dooms a character to end up exhibiting many of those behaviors.
-Whites: signify a Fate who is more likely to create pure, innocent characters.
-Reds: indicate bloodshed being a core part of the character's story, be it by their own hand or another's.
-Oranges: generally change meaning depending on how much yellow or red is within them, though it typically combines both in varying doses.
-Yellow and golds: show that a Fate's creations are more likely to have the follies of greed, pride, and/or envy, but also have the chance to be very happy.
-Green: characters will have an adventurous spirit and be connected more to the natural order, but can be a bit of a lost soul.
-Blues: a character will be very spiritually linked to unseen forces and is more likely to exhibit unusual powers.
-Purples: like oranges, can have varying meaning depending on the amount of blue and red are within them; the more blue the purple is, the more spiritual the character, while more red purples signify a greater tie to blood in some way.
-Pinks: a character is more likely to be a very social being, even to the point of being very persuasive and captivating to others.
-Blacks: almost always signify that the character will live a harsh life, be it of their own making or others.
-Orca: being as unique as it is, creates characters that are more likely to teeter on the edge of morality and immorality.
Circuited Fate
#712005
Gene: Circuit
Fate Type: Circuited Fate
Most Common in: Authors (Faes)
Least Common in: Assistants
Traits: Fates with circuit tend to be excellent co-authors, able to effortlessly connect plot points into unique narratives that stories on their own would not have come close to. As such, they are sought after by Authors looking to take their writing to the next level. They are also most likely to be friends of Zephre. Circuit Fates also have the unique ability of being able to manipulate electronics in their character's vicinity, allowing for mild communication or even attempts to sway their creation in certain decisions.
Contoured Fate
#712015
Gene: Contour
Fate Type: Contoured Fate
Most Common in: Authors (Guardians)
Least Common in: Archivists

#712021
Gene: Crackle
Fate Type: Cracked Fate
Most Common in: Authors
Least Common in: Archivists
Traits: Crackle often has one of two meanings; either the Fate loves breaking minds, or they love breaking social standards. Or both. Either way; those with crackle are seen as loose cannons who create equally unhinged characters.
Gilded Fate
#712027
Gene: Filigree
Fate Type: Filigreed Fate/Gilded Fate
Most Common in: Archivists
Least Common in: Assistants
Traits: Fates with Filigree are more likely to be Archivists, but other classes have been known to exhibit this gene. Filigree can signify prestige in a Fate and is loved for its beauty. Filigreed Fates often hold higher positions than those without, but often comes at the price of having trouble empathizing with other Fates. It has been noted that those with this gene are more likely to be more powerful than other Fates, though this is not always the case. The polished gemstones in this gene are pockets of highly concentrated essence, and light up when power is being used.

Traits: When a Fate has Gembound, it usually means that they are very well known in the community.

Whether or not this is true is hard to say, but Gembound Fates are highly respected, sometimes even more-so than those with Filigree!
Ghostly Fate
#712037
Gene: Ghost
Fate Type: Ghostly Fate/Deathly Fate
Most Common in: Authors
Least Common in: Assistants
Traits: A Fate with Ghost is almost always a trouble maker. Mild cases tend to include making more volatile characters who can easily mess with the balance of other stories, while the most extreme cases often include attempts to kill or claim the characters of others. While these behaviors are not always the case, even Ghostly Fates who don't do these things feel a strange urge on occasion to commit unlawful acts against their fellow Fate. Ghostly Fates also have a habit of working on a character's story well after the character has died, effectively creating ghosts.

Name of Fate: Norn
Class: Author
Aesthetic: Horror romance and horror comedies
Personality: Norn has a habit of being aggressive obsessive. They will do months of research between projects before writing in new characters. They have little awareness about what makes their own writing so disturbing to their fellow authors. They can get exceptionally attached to projects to the point of going to see them in person to get a better feel for them. They have once or twice attempted to "retcon" a death in order to keep using a character they killed off but suddenly needed again. This has had less than savoury results for their stories.
