Homebrew Wyvernborn Species Details

Wyvernborn

---

 

After The Thousand Year War many Dragons were believed to ask Asgorath for a new path to finding peace amongst a race, and a way to keep the dragon lineage longer, it is Believed by Passing of words and Legends that Asgorath met Hanali Celanil in an Oasis far beyond space and time, where different Gods and deities (That didn't hate each other) would spend time around away from their actual responsibilities; both Asgorath and Hanali provided different dragon and elvish DNA that they specifically created for the new race families.

It is a Common legend Between Dragons and Elves that Hanali gave birth to the first Wyvernborns in Existence in the span of 11 months, Named Arannis Drákon (M), Sora Delviresh (F), Thamior Drachendorten (M), Kriv Kortkontender (M), Xanaphia Kortnfher (F), Rhett Linktortergen (M), Theirastra Myastican (F), Nemnoticus Noptogerto (M), Caelynn Vinetortegen (F) and Nilakanta Wav'rytorn (F), with their names in Draconic and Elvish as a sign of culture;  they grew up in the crater of the sleeping volcano they were born in, the volcano Island is located in the midst of the "Sea of Fallen Stars", It is believed that the offsprings were left alone once they could walk, with the mission of creating families, and creating a hierarchy within the race.

They lived on the volcano and Called it Hyperion (The High one), they lived there for 11 Generations in total, after that the "War of Breaths" took place, in which 6 families ventured to different lands to search for a new home, while the other 5 remained on the island after making a treaty; To this day there have been many encounters of the families helping each other even after their indifferences, since their sole mission is to become a race upon many, but it doesn't eliminate the uncommon occasions in which some family member might betray another, form their family or from any other.

Codivergent Evolution

---

"Codivergent evolution can be considered a form of coevolution, specifically it is when a species undergoes divergent evolution, and another species diverges alongside it to remain in a mutualistic, parasitic or symbiotic relationship with one another."

Proud Wyvernborn Kin

Wyvernborn vary in appearance, some look like dragons standing erect in humanoid form, others like and elf with thick scales, depending on the bloodline, they might lack wings or a tail. The first Wyvernborn had scales of vibrant hues matching the colors of their dragon kin, and eye colors of the elf family, generations of crossbreeding have created a more varying amount of appearances. Their fine, colorful scales are usually in color with the family they are part of, sometimes ranging to scarlet, rust, gold, sapphire, obsidian, copper-green and many more. They are tall and strongly built, often standing close to 6½ feet tall and weighing 170 pounds or more, with minor exceptions. Their hands and feet are strong, hands and feet alike depend on the family they were born into.

The blood of a particular type of dragon runs very strong through some Wyvernborn families. These Wyvernborn often boast scales that more closely match those of their dragon ancestor—bright red, green, blue, or white, lustrous black, or gleaming metallic gold, silver, brass, copper, or bronze.

The blood of a particular type of Elf runs very strong in concurrence with their dragon blood. These Wyvernborn often boast the Eye color that more closely match of their Elf ancestor—Ruby Red, Obsidian Black, Thunder Blue, Cold White, Lava Fluct, Lime Green, Gold, Silver, Copper, or Bronze.

Family Bonds

To any Wyvernborn, Family is more important than life itself. Wyvernborn owe their devotion and respect to their family above all else, even the gods. Each Wyvernborn's conduct reflects on the honor, education and beliefs of his or her family, and bringing dishonor to the family can result in tougher training. Each Wyvernborn knows his or her station and duties within the family, and the protection of the family demands maintaining the bounds of that position.

A continual drive for self-improvement reflects the self-sufficiency of the race as a whole. Wyvernborn value skill, trust, excellence and communication in all endeavors. They hate to fail, and they push themselves to extreme efforts before they give up on something. A Wyvernborn holds mastery of a particular skill as a lifetime goal. Members of other races who share the same commitment find it easy to earn the respect of a Wyvernborn.

Though all Wyvernborn strive to fully protect their families, they recognize that help is sometimes needed in difficult situations. But the best source for such help is the family, and when a family needs help, it turns to another Wyvernborn family before seeking aid from other races—or even from the gods.
