[nextcol][size=4]I have been in love with what I called "flower gaolers" (I know they don't rhyme, but they do in my head!) and, prior to the creation of this subspecies, even found a small family of them!
It all began with [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/79658668]Grover[/url], my clan's terrarium guardian. It was developed while we were located in the Southern Icefields in order to accommodate dragons who couldn't live in the harsh conditions, and it needed someone to keep it alive. Grover stepped up to the job shortly after deciding to become a permanent member, dedicating his life and body to protecting it and its' residents.
The terrarium, now called [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/lair/630394/2276442]Crescent's Roots[/url], has come to house many more dragons since, and is still a big part of the clan today.

[/LIST]
Rough Ideas;
- Outcasts rejected by the Icewarden and taken in by the Gladekeeper, who nurtured them and brought them new life as the Viridian Guardians.
- Since being reclaimed by the Gladekeeper, they are [b]no longer wholly dragon[/b]. The gift bestowed upon them altered their genetic makeup, becoming part plant and part dragon, and most of their "regular" functions have changed to make them more effective at their duties.
- Evergreen Viridian Guardians are the most common variant found in Sornieth. They possess fur resembling tree bark, both in appearance and texture, manes made up of leaves and other shrubbery, and topped with flowers that bloom when they're hatched (or, in fewer cases, vines grow in excess where the blooms would have been). Some Evergreens, when fully grown, "tattoo" their bark with engravings of vines and depict their loyalty to the clan they serve.
- Scorched Guardians are [i]much[/i] more in-tune with the earth and have learnt to survive in less-than-ideal circumstances. Their coat loses the bark-like texture and instead feels like incredibly coarse hair, and depending on their tertiary, can have spines hidden underneath, poking through if their coat is trimmed regularly. Their manes are often made up of wispy desert flora that [i]looks[/i] soft but prickles gently when touched.
- Assigned orders to protect all kinds of nature and their respective ecosystems, including any outside the Viridian Labyrinth. The Viridian Guardians are found all over Sornieth and spread amongst clans, often taking up jobs like groundskeepers, botanists, farmers, gardeners, florists, and when needed, warriors. So long as they are protecting nature in one form or another, they are content.
- Guardians may resemble Sornieth's varying wildlife, which can affect their looks and behaviour. For example, [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/73705660]Rhodantha[/url], who is a Scorched variant (taking general inspiration from real life cacti and desert flora to determine her attributes, likes & dislikes); she is generally very lax, enjoys basking in the sun while on duty and in her offtime, and sleeps in a bed of loam (of which she can absorb nutrients from while resting).
- Those with [gamedb item=35005] and [gamedb item=51343] have an excess of the Gladekeeper's gift and are considered the strongest of the Evergreen variant. However, they have a key difference: those with braids are in control of their body and are able to live both as dragon and plant (showing it off by braiding their vines into their manes), whereas those with thundercrack cannot control their gift, and their body is being consumed by nature with every breath.
[b]Folks with Viridian Guardians are welcome to use this as a guideline for their lore, as well as alter it to fit better with their own visions! [/b]
These are just my absentminded writings and ideas, and I am welcome to folks wishing to expand even more upon it (of which I might add here, which I will ask to use first and then credit appropriately if given permission) [emoji=familiar heart size=1]
