TOPIC | Wild Orchard Lore Hatchery- New 8/6
I've narrowed it down to these three goobers. They're bound for my airship of adventurers, so even though a part of me says buy them all I also know I gotta have restraint if I want to make sure they have a place, you feel me?

I'll keep those three around for you until you make up your mind. (I know which one I think has the best lore, but I'll keep myself from trying to influence your decision!)

I think that Guardian has some of my favorite lore I've ever given a dragon, it really got away from me and became something that gets me in the heart while I was writing it.

I'll take her then! I might tweak her genes, if that is acceptable. The life of an adventurer is tough, so empathy will certainly be challenged!

Oh my gosh that makes me so happy, it was going to break my heart to exalt her. Thank you for giving her a home! Of course you can do whatever you need to with her genes.

First of all, Quis I love this and I'm looking forward to future stories. Also looking forward to future kids from the fathom, I may need a "come to fight my father's ghosts" future episode to play out lolol
Second, sorry for the ping @Ssevora but I just wanted to say DRAGON AIRSHIP I'm so hype to see that. My lore is over on Google docs while I rewrite stuff but a faction of my dragons traverse Sornieth by airship so it's superb to see someone else's air crew! I'm glad the fighty kid ended up with you, what a good match!

_____ keeps getting in trouble for goofing off during guard duty. It's just so... boring... waiting around for trouble to strike... when he could be playing, or napping, or anything else. The only way he can keep himself in line is by imagining that if he doesn't, some terrible disaster will strike- or, on the opposite end, that if he pays attention he'll get to do something heroic and bring pride to his clan.
The truth is that he would do much better pursuing his imagination in storytelling, writing, traveling as a bard, doing anything that captures his love of the dramatic and holds his attention.

_____ has his sights set on far horizons, hoping to travel far from his birth clan. He's seen the tension between Plague and Nature, and heard of similar tensions between other Flights. He dreams of standing in the gap between fueding dragons and helping each hear the other's side. Even more than that, he hopes to stand up for Nature's banner in some clan, making his Flight proud with noble behavior and winning arguments.
He's not a proud dragon- if the Clan he finds himself with already has a Nature representative, he's more than ready to make himself an assistant to them, and would be perfectly content with such a position.
He believes that hard work and fairness pay off, almost to a painful degree that might be annoying to listen to. But his whole heart is in it and he doesn't do anything by half measures.

[url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/24709666]Nessia[/url] prowled through the trees of the Orchard, ears perked. Everyone was on high alert since the newcomers had crashed in, ranting about 'somthing coming,' and Nessia had no intention of letting anything disturb her garden.
She sensed it before she saw it- at first an irritation, then a sudden open wound in one of the trees she was attached to. She bolted through the undergrowth on three legs, one hand already reaching back for the bandolier of alchemical jars she wore.
The problem was obvious as she drew close, the tree's screaming harsh as scraping rust against her senses. A dark shape, something winged and a little smaller than herself, had fastened itself like a tick to the trunk of the tree. Pink and purple flared around it as crystal shards burst through the bark like knives, throwing splinters of wood out as each broke through with sharp loud cracks.
Nessia cried out and skidded to a stop, sending the thorny vines she wore shooting towards the intruder to snare it while a the same time throwing the alchemical vial she had pulled free. The jar spun through the air, sloshing contents dangerous only to flesh and not to leaf or stem, smashing soundly against the thing's back. It turned its head to hiss at her and she saw a flash of teeth, pink eyes, and then in a flurry it was gone, tearing its wings on her thorn vines as they tried to pin it down. It crashed away through the branches and out of sight into the Labyrinth.
She swore as she hurried to the tree and cupped a clawed hand against the poor shattered bark, all shot through with Arcane crystals. If it was mostly surface damage she still might be able to save the poor thing. Nessia bent all her Nature's senses into the tree, feeling for the core of it, feeling through the leaking sap and shuddering leaves. It was an iffy thing; the tree might be saved, or it might already be lost. She felt sick inside.
Still pressed against the tree, urging it to heal the little bit she could with the power she had, she raised her head and let out a long sharp whistle, then another, and another. The sound would summon one of the Clan's messangers to her within minutes.
She had to make a report. The enemy was a dragon, after all, but there was something wrong with it, and it was as dangerous as they'd been warned.

This dragon dreams of sharing and trading experience with other artists all over the world. Surely each land must have it's own spin on art- from the woven ribbons of the Windswept Plateau, to the mushroom-based glowpaints of the Tangled Wood, to the ice sculptures of the Southern Icefields. He wants to see them all, to try them all. And artists are energetic sorts, usually- if he can just get to all these different places, surely he'll find people willing to teach him how to do all these different things.
The difficulty is that travel is hard for him. He dislikes trying new kinds of food, sleeping in new types of bed, waking up to a different sky or ceiling. But he's sure the pain will be worth it if it lets him learn from the different artisan masters of all the different lands.

This dragon has been a natural born fighter from a young age. But while his strong muscles and sharp tail stinger might be made for war, his heart has always leaned towards peace.
It feels selfish, here in a dangerous territory like the Wild Orchard, not to fight to protect your home. So of course he does his fair share of defending against attackers that would harm the land. But really? Deeply, truly? He wants to move far away, somewhere safe, somewhere gentle, where he can meet a nice partner and raise a family. He longs to hear the laughter of children instead of the cries of battle, to teach a little giggling hatchling how to fly, to sing them gently to sleep at night.
You wouldn't think it, looking at him and his fierce spines and fangs. Sometimes a fighter's body doesn't come with a fighter's soul.

This dragon has the qualities you'd look for in a natural leader. He has the charisma that draws others to his cause, he cares about the people around him, he's clever....
....but the truth of it is that he really just wants to write love poetry.
Not just romantic love, but all kinds. Friendship, family, the stirring in your chest when you see a beautiful sunrise that you'll never see again, the joy of listening to falling rain or laying in dappled sunlight through the trees, he's in love with all of it. And he wants to make everyone else fall in love with the world, too.
Goodness help the dragons around him, he's probably going to convince them to write poetry too, even if they hate the idea, and they'll be sitting there writing and wondering how in the world they got into this.

Travel isn't for everyone, and this dragon knows it. Travel can be dangerous, messy, expensive- some people, maybe even most people, will never bother with it. But that means they'll never know what the wider world is like, and that bothers her deeply.
What's to be done? Why bring the outside world to the people who stay at home, of course!
This dragon wants to learn to be a traveling bard, bringing stories and songs from all the different regions of the world together so those who don't venture outside of their own clan's territory can still have their horizons broadened. The difficulty, of course, is that she doesn't have a naturally beautiful voice, and her webbed hands aren't ideal for playing some instruments. But she's certain that with enough practice she can overcome both of these things and turn herself into the bard she aspires to be, the kind that will give people such vivid images of what faraway lands are like that they'll be seeing them in their dreams.

This dragon went to visit her [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/95979896]aunt[/url] and [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/95977836]uncle[/url] one day, and, finding them not in their usual den site, figured there would be no harm in playing with some of the jewelry they kept there. Of course, they had often told her not to touch it, but surely just trying on a few things wouldn't do any harm....
She was too young to understand that her aunt is the clan's cursebreaker, and the box contained finds that hadn't been successfully made safe yet.
Now this dragon has a very strange curse. It's not bad luck of anything easily predicted like that- she's been cursed with change. Things affected by her element of Nature change when she's around. Whether that's flowers blooming ahead of schedule and turning a color they shouldn't be, roses smelling rotten, or lemons turning sweet instead of sour, when this dragon walks into the room, you can be sure some plant somewhere nearby has shifted in some way.
It's not the worst curse in the world, but she's annoyed half to death by it, and would love to find a professional cursebreaker that can succeed where her aunt wasn't able to.

And artists are energetic sorts, usually- if he can just get to all these different places, surely he'll find people willing to teach him how to do all these different things.
The difficulty is that travel is hard for him. He dislikes trying new kinds of food, sleeping in new types of bed, waking up to a different sky or ceiling. But he's sure the pain will be worth it if it lets him learn from the different artisan masters of all the different lands.

This dragon has been a natural born fighter from a young age. But while his strong muscles and sharp tail stinger might be made for war, his heart has always leaned towards peace.
It feels selfish, here in a dangerous territory like the Wild Orchard, not to fight to protect your home. So of course he does his fair share of defending against attackers that would harm the land. But really? Deeply, truly? He wants to move far away, somewhere safe, somewhere gentle, where he can meet a nice partner and raise a family. He longs to hear the laughter of children instead of the cries of battle, to teach a little giggling hatchling how to fly, to sing them gently to sleep at night.
You wouldn't think it, looking at him and his fierce spines and fangs. Sometimes a fighter's body doesn't come with a fighter's soul.

This dragon has the qualities you'd look for in a natural leader. He has the charisma that draws others to his cause, he cares about the people around him, he's clever....
....but the truth of it is that he really just wants to write love poetry.
Not just romantic love, but all kinds. Friendship, family, the stirring in your chest when you see a beautiful sunrise that you'll never see again, the joy of listening to falling rain or laying in dappled sunlight through the trees, he's in love with all of it. And he wants to make everyone else fall in love with the world, too.
Goodness help the dragons around him, he's probably going to convince them to write poetry too, even if they hate the idea, and they'll be sitting there writing and wondering how in the world they got into this.

Travel isn't for everyone, and this dragon knows it. Travel can be dangerous, messy, expensive- some people, maybe even most people, will never bother with it. But that means they'll never know what the wider world is like, and that bothers her deeply.
What's to be done? Why bring the outside world to the people who stay at home, of course!
This dragon wants to learn to be a traveling bard, bringing stories and songs from all the different regions of the world together so those who don't venture outside of their own clan's territory can still have their horizons broadened. The difficulty, of course, is that she doesn't have a naturally beautiful voice, and her webbed hands aren't ideal for playing some instruments. But she's certain that with enough practice she can overcome both of these things and turn herself into the bard she aspires to be, the kind that will give people such vivid images of what faraway lands are like that they'll be seeing them in their dreams.

This dragon went to visit her aunt and uncle one day, and, finding them not in their usual den site, figured there would be no harm in playing with some of the jewelry they kept there. Of course, they had often told her not to touch it, but surely just trying on a few things wouldn't do any harm....
She was too young to understand that her aunt is the clan's cursebreaker, and the box contained finds that hadn't been successfully made safe yet.
Now this dragon has a very strange curse. It's not bad luck of anything easily predicted like that- she's been cursed with change. Things affected by her element of Nature change when she's around. Whether that's flowers blooming ahead of schedule and turning a color they shouldn't be, roses smelling rotten, or lemons turning sweet instead of sour, when this dragon walks into the room, you can be sure some plant somewhere nearby has shifted in some way.
It's not the worst curse in the world, but she's annoyed half to death by it, and would love to find a professional cursebreaker that can succeed where her aunt wasn't able to.
