Amberwood would LOVE to join the dig...! He's an archeologist and is super eager to help out. There's gotta be labor shortages with all the disappearing and weird happenings that have been going on in the BotE stories, and he's real eager to fill in the gaps. New digs! How exciting!

Atlantis is also very interested in whatever's going on down there, but he's more content to just watch quietly and make analyses and such, rather than doing the actual digging. This isn't his area of expertise, so he'll still help out but he's leaving the important work to his fellow archeologists.

[columns][item=Blasting Powder][nextcol]As the clan leader, Solstice decided to lead his clan's team to assist in the expedition. Something within him told him that this would be a very important journey. Jade stayed behind to keep an eye on the clan. Also, as much as he'd never admit it, Solstice missed his old adventuring days before he settled down, and he jumped at the chance to explore ancient ruins and dig to see what they might uncover. Who knows? Maybe he can bring something home to help the clan![/columns]
[columns]Though he's mellowed over time, he still has a bit of an overconfident streak. He made sure not to go alone so that his clanmates could help stop him from doing anything foolish in the name of discovery. At the very least, he hopes he can use his will o' the embers to help light the way, and direct his team the best he can. He may not be as strong as his mate, or some of the larger breeds, but he's a quick thinker, and can avert disaster because of that. He'll be here to help in whatever way he can.[nextcol][item=Will o' the ember][/columns]

[columns]Charon is the clan's gravedigger, so he felt he was well-suited to helping with the dig. His familiar, Rigor, is also excellent at digging, delving deep into soil and even stone using her hard bone carapace as protection.
He also has a deep interest in what lays beneath, and is taking this as an opportunity to explore and learn about dragonhome and its secrets. He has many theories about the relationships between the earth and the afterlife, and hopes that he can uncover the truth during his time underground. [nextcol][item=shattered serpent][/columns]

A potent mixture crafted to explode quickly. When deployed by fire dragons, there is a small window of time in which the blast can be shaped and sculpted for maximum efficiency and to prevent cave-ins.

Ryo is in fact, just here to steal things.

Dyssodia here travels around Dragonhome to find lost dragons and help guide them. I'm sure she would help out where ever she can, whether it be guiding dragons to where the digsite is or helping organize supplies at the camp.

Carne here would also help out for sure. It's his hatch-place after all, why wouldn't he? He would probably focus on transporting supplies from cities and towns he visits in other flights.

Terrae would love to join in!
Voltari here, while young, wishes to be the finest excavator in all of the clan. She's still growing, but when she's done she'll get her hands on some excavating gear and travel to Earth flight to lend a hand.

Edit: Ah, yes, and how could I forget Anja? A tour guide around the dig and quite a bit of a wild west character.

[nextcol]Slate is one of the few earth-ish themed dragons i've got that'll fit perfectly with what's going on! She's got a bit too much info on Sornieth's underground tunnels and caves, and an uncanny sense for finding bones- dragon or otherwise. She's a bit eccentric and honestly, being a wind dragon, she wasn't expected to be as interested in earthly themes as she is, but here we are!
Her eyes match the ones of her undead vulture and the lantern it carries as well, which is how others theorize that she's able to see in zero light and find things many have overlooked.
This event is giving me a ton of lore for her really c':[/columns]

[nextcol]Dead things lurk underground and try to escape, but Thieny is here to stop them. When all these odd happenings began around Sornieth, Thieny has been visiting every single accident site and odd hole in the ground to try an find out more. Now, with an open excavation going on, she's making sure nothing accidentally escapes the many new caves everyone's about to discover...[/columns]
Thick spools of rope threaded with dried plantlife and animal hair found in all corners of the realm. The combination of diverse materials is difficult to procure, but makes it nearly indestructible.
