(Currently, this is an attempt to get a bit of a backstory down for my trio... constructive criticism is encouraged. Please be patient, my lore on FR may not be as good as it could/should be. This first post is to provide the images/links to the trio I am starting. Dusk is a grown adult dragon while Bard and Pearl will be coined as hatchlings.)
Along the frozen shores of the frigid land of ice, the proud parents of a small clutch gathered into their prized nest and snuggled in for the night. They were vigilant, taking turns to watch for predators and keeping themselves and their prized eggs warm.
Unfortunately, even in their stalwart vigilance, did not detect the creature from the sea. A massive monster ambushed them from the water and crushed all but one of the eggs. The father defended his mate and eggs with his life. In a desperate attempt to keep their last egg safe, the mother fled. Though she was gravely wounded, and by dawn, passed away next to the egg.
In a twist of fate, the egg was washed away by the sea. Eventually, it was washed ashore near the newly awakened den of Banescales... and hatched.
Pearl, a cautious and curious hatchling in a big world that once thought her kind extinct, if not completely forgotten. The song of the ancient, dead elders that protected her had been too distorted through her eggshell, and though the words were not understood, she felt them within her.
She was one of the last to hatch, though she did not fly away. Pearl, stricken by sadness at the loss of the elders of her clan, wept under the large silhouette of an elder.
Eventually, she crawled out of the den with a heavy heart, then paused to stare at a hatching egg along the shore...
Dusk soared over the hot lands of scorched earth and lava. She frowned as the heat from the earth itself pushed against her, as if trying to shove her further into the sky. As she spilled some of the oppressive heat from her wings, she leaned into a turn and headed for the shore.
Far below, Dusk spotted two hatchlings and flapped her bat-like wings. The two far below circled each other, appearing to take defensive stances as they moved.
More heat and air spilled from Dusk's wings and she dove down. The ground was hot to her paws, but not to the point of burning her.
The hatchlings hissed and snapped at each other. A tundra and a Banescale. With a snap of her own jaws, Dusk silenced them both, "And what have we here...."
