Hi yes, how are you today?
Mm, I see, yes.
This is a forum dedicated to my personal exalt lore, made even more fun by a community and mutual assistance in a common goal! This forum was originally intended to be private between me and my friends with the assumption that it would mostly get buried by other forums, but people have still somehow found their way to it. That being said, although most of us on the forum are either irl friends of mine or friends of friends, I extend an open invitation to anyone who is interested in this Platoon who doesn't know me personally!
So without further ado, welcome to the Fonk Platoon Forum!
Fonk /faNGk/
n 1 A dragon who's aesthetic is considered wacky, messy, or otherwise visually undesirable.
The foundation of this platoon is based on the fact that many bred 'reject' dragons are often cheaply sold off or otherwise thrown away. The primary goal, therefore, is to create lore that spotlights those dragons while simultaneously adding a new twist on the concept of exalting. Now into the nitty-gritty.
Sure this is all well and good but what's with all organization and structure? I originally imagined this as a military organization, hence the word
platoon, which is ultimately being led by The Icewarden. The idea is that all dragons are accepted, no matter the genes, element, gender, breed, or otherwise. But the dragons can't just go and join a military completely untrained, right? Hence the local branches, tasked with the purpose of taking recruits and getting them up to snuff to eventually send to The Icewarden.
These branches will take the form of a lair tab, each having a title to indicate it. Every branch will be led by a Fonk Daddy, the wackiest looking dragons of them all. A Fonk Daddy is required for every training branch.
If someone wants to register as an official trainer, a few conditions must be met:
With all these conditions met I can add your information to the bio of my active Fonk Daddy
Neon who will also serve as the official recordkeeper after his retirement.
Once you are officially registered you can add whatever information you want to add bout your branch to the bio of your Fonk Daddy along with the links to all the dragons your branch has trained an exalted (See
Neon for an example)
That's all the information I can think of to add for now. If anything is still confusing, feel free to ask me anything and I can add it.
