A fae born from the purest of flames, he revels in the power and creativity of fire's power, and thus places it upon a pedestal above all others. A forgemaster of incredible skill, he has made it his mission to pass to his bloodline his trade secrets to secure wealth for his family and reinforce his position in history as one of the greatest smiths ever known. It is said that The Hearth once went by another name, but now he is only known by the name that his position entails. ___________________ [emoji=Fire Rune size=1] ___________________ [b][size=5][color=orangered][font=High Tower Text]The Ember of The Hearth[/font][/color][/size][/b] [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/103726136][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/1037262/103726136_350.png[/img][/url] A fae who is fiery at heart but not by birth. She has little interest in the power dynamics at play in her family and has her attention turned outward, dedicated to influencing as many dragons as possible across the world. Her repressed need to dominate manifests in many forms, from forcing her ideals to manipulation that can bring dragons under her control. She is of great magical influence and uses her strange birthright of the spreading of multiple wings to showcase the power she and her descendants wield. Not particularly loyal to any individual in pursuit of strength, Wildfire is also known for many failed romantic endeavours. ___________________ [emoji=Fire Rune size=1] ___________________ [/center] [center] [emoji=torch size=1][size=7] [color=darkorange][font=Castellar][b]- LORE -[/b][/font] [/color] [/size][emoji=torch size=1][/center] [emoji=phoenix feather size=1][b][size=5][color=orangered][font=High Tower Text]The History[/font][/color][/size][/b] [COLOR=transparent]????[/COLOR]In ancient times, at the emergence of the world, dragons were considered to be monstrous, vile creatures who were just as mindless as any other creature that walked the earth. It took ages for dragons to organize themselves and construct societies of their own, since they were notoriously known for being unable to co-operate with one another. Dragons were greedy and hoarded their wealth and possessions, creating a swirling storm of conflict as they always tried to take what was thought to be most valuable off one another. This constant state of war was only fueled when a species of dragon, snake-like and cohesive in community emerged with the knowledge to make creations for themselves out of the raw gifts from the Earth. While the knowledge of carvings had been around for many generations, the art’s value had fluctuated greatly over time as a practice that any dragon could do. There was room to grow and create things far beyond the scope of any dragon then could image. The Coatls from The Flame learned one of these arts; metalworking, and their creations were unlike anything the world had seen. Many dragons then sought to take these treasures for themselves as usual, but there were some dragons who could see farther than just the current state of their hoard and recognized that these were skills to be learned. They were able to recognize that dragons were not born with this power to create in hand, and if the Coatls could learn it, so too could anyone else. [COLOR=transparent]????[/COLOR]A particular dragon, also born to The Flame, found himself undaunted by the means of which these new possessions were made and sought to learn the art of forging from these magnificent dragons. Though many coatls turned him away in hopes of keeping their newfound art for themselves, one day he was fated to find success by a small tribe on the Magmablood Rebuke, who were less concerned about guarding their secrets as they were about survival and finding success with what little means they had. Born of None with a clear connection to the flame stronger than many of them, the tribe agreed to teach him the basics of preparing metal. Very quickly the masterwork smiths saw a greater potential in their latest visitor whose small size and nimble fingers could achieve detail and a level of complexity in their work that others could not, and so the dragons who lived there pushed to strike a deal: he would remain with them to learn the greater art of forging, and in return he would make for them intricate jewellery and adornments unlike any they have made before. He agreed with no hesitation. [COLOR=transparent]????[/COLOR]For several years he remained, his skill bringing pleasantries and miseries to the tribe alike. Around them the presence of an Economy begun to form, and the small tribe of outcast dragons began to climb to new heights off the back of their visitor’s talents. The day came however where he outgrew the allies he had made, feeling that remaining could take him no further in his pursuit. By this time he was no longer the only non-coatl to have learned their precious art, masters and novices alike, but there were also other arts to have emerged that he had paid no attention to in his years of apprenticeship. With many new things to discover in the world and feeling there had to be a new and better way to establish himself, he left the tribe and took his knowledge with him in a journey to find the next thing to conquer. [COLOR=transparent]????[/COLOR]In recent days after moving from one place to the next and finding a world of skills he could never have imagined, he began to worry about his own legacy. Hoarding knowledge did not seem to be the way the world worked anymore, but there could never be anyone he could trust with the knowledge earned from his years of hardship. This craft was too beautiful and wondrous to be kept just for himself, but he was born alone into this world of savagery. After considering his position at length he decided that the only path forward was to create these trusted allies for himself. To do that he needed a mate, and in the end he found one. She laid out her ideas for establishing a stronghold of dragons to rival the communities they had all been a part of and way of in their lifetimes, arguing that the tribes that kept them must have once started from nothing themselves. She promised a glorious life of wealth, freedom, and power, and he was swayed with what she said they could accomplish, for she had strange abilities of her own unlike any he had ever seen. Gifts from the Arcane, she said, and whose power lies dormant even in you as a fellow Fae. As dragons both of great power, they had the opportunity to create something bigger than both of them: a court of dragons better than any the world had seen so far. That day, she named him The Hearth, for a dragon whose warmth was to be needed by many others to find the glory they both deserved. To their kin only would they bestow their knowledge and their power in hopes of forging the strongest fire dragons to fly on Sorineth to date, living together as The Court of Forge and Flame. [emoji=red gem size=1][b][size=5][color=orangered][font=High Tower Text]The Court[/font][/color][/size][/b] [emoji=candle size=1] [b][size=5][color=orangered][font=High Tower Text]The Fae[/font][/color][/size][/b] Since Fae dragons are an arcane species, they still maintain their ties to magic and the bloodline is thick with it. However since their founder has given himself completely to the flame, the magic abilities that are passed on are largely to do with fire. Fae who are more on the impure spectrum have been known to have magical abilities to be more random and less elemental. The higher number of wings, the stronger the magic is that a dragon has. There is a direct link to the purity of a dragon and the number of wings it was born with, the two aspects working together to determine the overall strength of a fire fae. Dragons that are completely impure with the minimum amount of wings have been known to have no magic at all. [emoji=apparel helm size=1] [b][size=5][color=orangered][font=High Tower Text]Forging[/font][/color][/size][/b] The creation of objects from metal is a founding block of the lineage. Since it is a coveted, special talent, a fae’s talent in forging Those who are the purest are known to make the best delicate items, ranging to those who are completely impure who can only manage crude creations or even nothing at all. This is because being impure means a weak connection to the flame, therefore being unable to withstand heat like the others. These fire fae place incredible value on any of their metal creations and significantly less on adornments made from other materials. They also value intricate work over large hunks of metal thanks to what the coatls believed about them. The fae are all aware of how important it is to keep the secrets of their skills away from other dragon and to teach others is the most traitorous thing a descendant of The Hearth could do, but they have no problems sharing their creations within their own family. Descendants who cannot or have no interest in forging for themselves are still happily adorned with the creations of their relatives, sometimes forcefully to show off their family’s status. [hidden title = "Lore Prompts"] [center] [emoji=torch size=1][size=7] [color=darkorange][font=Castellar][b]- LORE PROMPTS- [/b][/font] [/color] [/size][emoji=torch size=1][/center] For anyone who might be struggling to come up with ideas for their new baby, here are some things I was keeping in mind while creating the thread. [LIST] [*]Dragons descendant from Wildfire have been known to have random power eruptions and rarely can change magic over time. The innate connections to Arcane through their mother and her volatile nature makes this possible. [*]The Court of Forge and Flame is very family-oriented. The Hearth places a particular fondness for his descendants and encourages familial bonds. [*]Since these dragons revere purity, there can be notable consequences to other dragons when making changes that might lower their status in the court after being established (ie, breed changes, tertiary gene change, scatterscroll). [*]Some recommended occupations for fire fae finding their place in other lairs are: smiths, knights, mages, teachers, and leaders. [*]The lore of The Court of Forge and Flame is a mix of Flight Rising canon and general fantasy, albeit a touch Dungeons and Dragons guided. While certain aspects are being observed like breeds emerging from their canon flights, a lot of the inner lore of the deities are overlooked due to The Court having its ruler-ship semi act in their place. [*]The magic of a dragon via eye type is creatively malleable. For example, a fairly pure dragon with the right colours and genes born into the Water Flight may end up with extremely weak fire abilities, may have power over water instead, or their two natures are in such conflict with each other they may have no magic at all. [*]Since The Court of Night and Shadow are based on fey, you can think of The Court of Forge and Flame as being based on dwarves. [/LIST] [/hidden]

You are not required to participate in lore to be a part of the lineage, but we highly encourage connecting any descendants you may own with other player's dragons. The two centrepieces of this lineages is the ability to have multiple wings and the degrees of purity that come with breeding a variety of colours and genes. Both aspects are connected to a dragon's power as an individual and within The Court. The forging aspect of the lineage is essentially forbidden knowledge that is passed down to those who are worthy. For now the forging aspect of the lineages remains as lore flavor only. There is a desire to make it functional in the future but the mechanics are yet to be worked out. To participate, all you have to do is own a descendant. Make sure you register your dragons to confirm their place in The Court and the family tree. Please make sure you keep in mind the aspects of power and purity when writing your dragon's lore. When you hatch a descendant's nest, that is when you roll for the number of wings a hatchling has. Dragons can be born with no more than 10 wings. There will be lore events where you can increase any dragon's wing count. Dragons born from Hearth are eligible for learning the art of forging and are the dragons considered of being born of flame, so they are the ones where purity matters and are always considered true members of The Court. Dragons born from Wildfire are the dragons that have multiple wings, but have no inherit connection to fire. Her children have strong magical ties While most descendants are born from both founders, there will be occasional nests where there will be hatchlings sold only from one parent and therefore are only subject to one set of rules. Please be mindful of this when deciding to take on hatchlings. All dragons have magical abilities (or the potential to) that mainly center around elemental magic. A dragon’s flight is linked with their affiliated magic. While it does not have to dictate exactly what kind of magic your dragon has, I do ask that you use it as inspiration to work out their lore and to bend the rules as much as possible. All descendants of The Hearth are considered fire dragons by default, as the blessings of fire he gives overrules any other magical imposition. [center] [emoji=torch size=1][size=7] [color=darkorange][font=Castellar][b]- REQUIREMENTS -[/b][/font] [/color] [/size][emoji=torch size=1][/center] [b]Any dragon descended from The Hearth is eligible for the lineage and can be registered[/b], however there is a list of stats for a dragon to be considered "of pure flame", which are listed below. A dragon is ranked on it's level of purity based on the number of aspects it has from the list. A dragon born with no aspects of the list is considered extremely impure and are the lowest-ranking individuals in The Court. There is a separate registration for dragons who are only descendant from Wildfire. They are not subject to any of the purity rules or it's status since they are not born from the flame. [b][color=orangered]Breeds:[/b][/color] Any breed other than [b]Fae[/b] are considered to be unusual, since everyone knows those to be the only species of the founders, but no descendant will be outright denied for being born another breed. Since [b]Coatls[/b] have a special reverence in the court's history they will always be held in high esteem, even greater than the fae themselves. [b][color=orangered]Colours:[/b][/color] [b]Lemon-Crimson[/b] (aka the colour range of the founders). Dragons with colours in the yellows, oranges, and reds are considered the purest. Colours that are in the yellow and red range that are outside the breeding range of the founders (Goldrenrod, Red, etc) are usually considered good enough by most members of the court, but there are some dragons who do not consider them "pure" enough. Dragons born with Brown colours, while still considered to be pure, are usually seen through a different lens: they are often considered to be the mark of a weak or dying fire, or sometimes "the hue of those who fuel the flame". A dragon decreases in purity if they have a single colour that is not on this spectrum, worse if there are two, and even worse if it is all three. The most forgiving slot is the tertiary, as many dragons consider this "the colour of their inner fire" and can be interpreted as a direct representation of a dragon's personality. [b][color=orangered]Genes:[/b][/color] There is no requirement for the primary or secondary, but the tertiary genes [b]Firebreather and Eclipse[/b] are highly coveted, as it is a sign that a dragon's inner fire is strong enough to emerge externally. Dragons with [b]Firefly[/b] are considered curiosities and are accepted as still being strong in order to attract a different aspect of the flame. [b][color=orangered]Eyes:[/b][/color] [b]Fire element[/b], but many think well of dragons born into Light or Lightning. Primal eyes are not inherently a sign of a higher status, and for the most part dragons have no bias towards any Eye Type except Faded, which generates concern. [center] [emoji=torch size=1][size=7] [color=darkorange][font=Castellar][b]- APPAREL & SKINS - [/b][/font] [/color] [/size][emoji=torch size=1][/center] Since the multiple wings aspect is so crucial to the development of any dragon, here is a list of guidelines for you to follow: The multiple wings aspect only applies to natural-like apparel wings. The mechanical-based wings on FR, like the Steampunk sets, will not be considered to contribute to a dragon's wing count, since these are clearly constructs that can be created by the forging fae. You may still use these kinds of apparel items for aesthetics. Exceptions can be made in clearly determined lore, such as using them "replace" a set of lost wings. Please make sure to address the usage of any mechanical wings in your dragon's lore. There are also wings like the Marionette wings that do not have any webbing but clearly have the bone structure of a wing. Those are also admissible While it is generally accepted that 1 apparel = 1 set of wings, there are a couple exceptions. Some items like the Mantles and the Faerie Wings appear to have multiple sets within them. Use your own discretion to choose whether or not that singular item counts for one set or more. There are also apparel items that are not wings that can pass for wings, such as the Moth Capes. Since this lineage is heavily apparel-based, the use of all apparel types to try and convey what these dragons are is admissible. I understand that sometimes you have to get creative to work within the bounds of what FR has to offer. Skins and Accents are allowed in addition or in lieu of apparel wings, but the mechanical-wing requirement also applies to them. While dragons are born with a number of how many wings they have you are not required to represent this with apparel and are free to just leave it in written lore. I acknowledge that apparel is expensive so you are free to act out a dragon as if it has it's correct number of wings without actually wearing any.

A mate came to him quickly with a promise of a grand future, of which he accepted without doubt. Together they left the Ashfall Wastes and settled instead in a land of Light. She whispered to him that they would be better off not surrounded by dragons who might be jealous of the life they were going to build and the distance would keep his secrets safer. The distance, she assured, would never sever his internal bond to fire and it was something they could nurture from afar, returning whenever they needed. They needn’t fear being so close to shadow. Now with their strength established it was time for their name to grow. She told him that his skills and name would one day falter if he did not nurture them, and he should never allow knowledge to be lost to time. It simply not the arcane way. Their first nests were bountiful and full of life. While Brown colours marked every child, it was something they expected and hoped beyond all others that their children would find the flame for themselves despite the smolder in their flesh. There was so much meaning to be found in the search for identity, the Hearth knew, and he wanted to see it unfold. [color=darkorange][font=Castellar][i][b]Go forth my kin.

Like the last nest, not posted on the AH and ping only, being 50kt/g. Unlike last time, these children have rolled wingcounts. [color=red][b]Development Note:[/b][/color] This has been a very busy summer for me and I have not had time to do the minor lore fixes to be able to open up the thread. I still haven’t, but today I have decided to fully open the thread anyway, with the disclaimer that the entire lore section is going to be modified. Not too big of a departure from what is already there, but I consider what is up there as the “working copy” of information that was being passed around prior to the reading launch in July. Feel free to base your dragon’s lore based on what is up there with the understanding there will be some changes as soon as I can make them and you may have to do some rewriting. Right now I am not confident I will be able to make the necessary fixes before the Founder’s breeding cycle ends. On that note, [b]the thread is officially being opened for posting[/b]. Happy Flameforger’s Festival everyone, and even though it’s a month overdue I hope we can finally start breathing life into this project. @pinglist-53575 @pinglist-53576

@TerranBeetle Yaaay! Of course! She's on the way in a minute!
