User:Asherystrasz/Albino Dragonflight

'The Albino' or 'White Dragonflight' is one of the lesser dragonflights. (The major ones being Ruby, Bronze, Emerald, Obsidian and Azure). When the Titans created the five aspects out from the ancient and enormous proto-dragon(/wyrm) Galakrond, the Albino Dragonflight was also born. The Albino Dragonflight was created by accident, unknown to the Pantheon. The Albino Dragonflight is intelligent and self-sufficient, but it does not have an Aspect empowered by the Pantheon, and thus their only abilities are those shared by all dragons: flying, breathing, biting, etc.

= Culture =

The Albino Dragonflight is a secluded civilization, its members often being shy, and almost never arrogant nor confident. They think themselves as outsiders of Azeroth. They almost never interact with mortals, as it is hard for them to interact even with their own kind. They are extremely loyal. An albino is only shy when meeting new people, but right as they get introduced and get to know a person, they begin to 'reveal' their personality. The albinos are utterly loyal to their oldest Tynorvir, rumors say that he is even older than Galakrond himself, which is extremely likely to be an overstatement, as the flight itself only appeared around the time the Titans came to Azeroth.

Tynorvir the Pale Prophet is by the only known albino to have an arrogant personality and a superiority complex. Tynorvir (also known as: Tyerous) has a white beard known to be several meters. He is a massive wyrm with golden eyes, his size comparable to an Aspect. Tynorvir dislikes most guests, and likes to constantly meditate. Tynorvir has never participated in any war on Azeroth.

Albino dragons are also sometimes born from eggs of the five major dragonflights. A known case is within the Azure Dragonflight, in the Nexus War, Malygos and the Azure Dragonflight has experimented on their flight, making the gene of albino, and the whelp/drake lost their dominion power over magic.

After Tynorvir's fall into slumber, some members of the Albino Dragonflight have begun trying to interact with the population of Azeroth.

While Albino dragons dislike mortals, they are still able to take a humanoid form, their most popular guises being "dwarves", "gnomes", and "humans"

Nomenclature
Albino males are often given names that end with "orvir", while the Albino females' names end in "suri"

= Biography = When the Titans came to Azeroth, everything was in chaos, the Old Gods reigning supreme. The Titans cleansed Azeroth of the filth, and imprisoned the Old Gods beneath the earth. The Titans created five dragons, from the template of the massive corpse of the proto-wyrm Galakrond. From the massive corpse, during the process of creating the five Aspects, an accident, unnoticed by the Pantheon was made, and small whelps poured out from the corpse of Galakrond. White whelps. These confused whelps, not even knowing who they were, began exploring Northrend. After learning how to fly, they ventured over the harsh winds of the seas, reaching the island that they later named 'The Ivory Sanctuary'.

Tynorvir's Landing
When the white whelps came to the island, they began following their instincts, creating roosts and procreating. The white whelps evolved into the stage of drake-hood, and their race began to evolve on the island. It was then a giant shadow could be seen above the skies. Thunders broke from the skies, and the white leviathan Tynorvir landed on the island. His skin was pure pale, his eyes shimmering of gold. He gazed upon the other whelps on the sanctuary, as they slowly bowed their head in respect. Tynorvir taught the drakes the art of mortal guise. He lied down in the middle of the isle, having become the source of wisdom for the island's new inhabitants. Tynorvir has not ever been seen in a mortal form, though he explains his interest in the dwarven race. All albino drakes admire Tynorvir greatly, and not one has questioned his wisdom. It was in his wisdom, that the Albino Dragonflight began building structures on the island, and a circle (known as the Circle of Wisdom) around Tynorvir. Their civilization started growing in numbers. They stood on their island ever since, not one outsider having visited their isle.

Davioxion the Dragon-Devourer
Tynorvir in the Circle of Wisdom had, for the first time, (of many to come) set himself to slumber. An earthquake could be felt on the island. The albino dragonflight's lesser members searched for the cause of the earthquake. When they finally found the cause on the shores of the isle, it was a giant and almost exorbitant obsidian dragon laying on the shore, wounded. The drakes instantly called for reinforcements, as the giant dragon was bleeding heavily. After a while the dragonflight's healers began treating his hounds. Later, the drakes gazed upon the giant dragon's eyelids as they suddenly opened, and a pure purple eye was seen. It gazed angrily upon the other drakes, thinking they may have been stealing parts from his body. He stood up furiously, shaking off the remaining white drakes from his body, as they fell down to the ground. Davioxion ruthlessly began slaughtering the Albino Dragonflight's civilization. When Davioxion felt the immense power on the isle, he headed toward it, killing, burning and destroying everything on his path, as he walked towards the Circle of Wisdom. The eldest seven Albino wyrms ultimately surrounded Davioxion, executed him, and took his skeleton as a trophy of their victory.

Cataclysm
Tynorvir, rarely waking from slumber, left the Albino dragonflight in disarray. They had lost their source for wisdom, but they remembered of one of their elder's stories, of a world beyond the seas, where everyone struggled to survive. Some of the Albino dragons have left the Ivory Sanctuary, curious and eager to explore the world of Azeroth, while trying to avoid mortals. The eldest of the Albino Dragonflight remains on the island, guarding Tynorvir in his seemingly eternal slumber. Some drakes have recently visited Kalimdor, while the majority remains on the Ivory Sanctuary island, perhaps in fear of losing it.

Berysuri can be found at the outskirts of Mount Hyjal, spreading the word about Tynorvir.

Leiorvir can be seen flying around the skies of Winterspring.
