~Wings of Greatness~(A Dragon Rider RP)-Introduction-
Long ago, in another world and time, lived the people of Valhagen. It was a wondrous world, filled with creatures big and small, not known to Earth. Most people would say it is a fake realm, but I assure you, it is in indeed very real. Let us take a journey to the land of the dragon riders. You will be one won't you?
Welcome, I am blubberywhales, most people just call me whales. This is an rp about the people and dragons of the world of Valhagen. This realm is very similar to ours when it comes to terrain, however, the most striking difference is the creatures. They play a large part in the life of the people and shape Valhagen to what it is today. In this rp you will be among the dragon riders, and I'm sure most of you would want to be one. A further explanation shall be provided to you as you read through the main post, for now, safe flying!
-History-
In ancient Valhagen, there existed only one kingdom: Dratonia. The land was ruled over by the wise king Uriah. He had four sons with his wife, Arabella, and chose the oldest of them to be the ruler of Dratonia when he died. The other brothers however, wanted to prove that they could lead Dratonia just as well, or better, than the eldest son, Elijah. So, they made plans to split the country into four other countries by rallying the people of each brother's claimed area and gaining their trust that whichever son was speaking could lead them the best. Uriah had grown old by the time his sons had completed what they had set out to do and told them that he would let his sons rule over the countries they had made. So, when both Uriah and Arabella died, Elijah became king of what remained of Dratonia and his brothers ruled over the following nations: Brom, the second oldest, named his country after himself. Japeth, the third oldest, named his country Elidn, after the rarest dragon in his land. The youngest, Seth, named his country something similar to his mother's name. He called his country, Arendaile. This is the story passed down from generation to generation. Some parts have been lost, others gained. However, this is the main summary you will find in every telling.
-Rules-
- Follow all Forum Rules
- Keep things PG-13 and below, if you have something that you're not sure would be forum appropriate, PM and ask before posting.
- No one liners, I don't need you to write a book, but please give people something to work with. I also request proper grammar, I understand that it won't be perfect every time, but do not make it a habit. Another note, please try to not just write OOC, rp with it. That belongs in the chat page or PM.
- If you have a dragon that is 'Very Uncommon' or higher, you can not take another that is higher than 'Very Uncommon'. The Celestial dragon breed is not 'the best' in everything, it just doesn't have any strengths or weaknesses. If you do claim a Celestial dragon, or any dragon that is 'Very Uncommon' or higher, you must be active. If you an really not, I will have to delete you so others can have a chance at claiming the rarer dragons.
- Be active, at least rp once every two days. Try to warn me in advance if you plan to leave for more than three days. Don't come by and say hi, that does not count as rping, that is chatting, and that belongs on the chat page. I understand if something unexpected comes, just let me know; and don't leave and never come back. That is my number one pet peve. I will give you four days to come back, after that you will be deleted; however, you may join again, but I may be hesitant about giving you a rarer dragon.
- Keep your characters realistic, this includes but not limited to, no mary-sues or gary-stue, and especially no perfect dragons! Your dragon won't win every battle, and no one is immortal. Your character can get injured and most likely will to keep things intresting.
- Have fun and your code word is Valhaven, put this in the other section of your character sheet

-Characters-
Beth Greene : 17 : Female : Upper : Malachite Reaper : Riggs : Beth has very light blonde hair, often tied off into a side braid. She has a pale complexion and very bright green eyes. She stands at about 5'5 and has an athletic build : Beth has always had had an intrest in singing and does so when she can. She often sings to her dragon, who she cherished when she recieved him at the dragon ceremony as a tiny hatchling. Beth has a fiery personality, but she is often less snappy towards her friends. Some consider her snobby, but she thinks of herself as someone who just defends herself with words : 🐳BlubberyWhales🐳
[Alec Gallagher : 27 : Male : Upper : Celestial : Catamundi : Alec is tall, standing at 6'2, with short, spiky brown hair and a bit if scuff on his chin. He has dark brown eyes. He's well built, and lightly muscled with board shoulders. He usually wears baggy clothing and always has on a pair of gloves : Alec is a bit cocky, due to riding the 'best' dragon around in Catamundi, and likes to boast about it. He'll challenge just about anyone to tests to further show of his dragon, and we'll keep doing so no matter how many times you say no to him. He's an okay hand to hand combat fighter, but he is a monster when fighting his dragon. : Robinsong
Tyler Winchester : 17 : female : Lower : The Winchester : Cutter : Tyler is a bit short and scrawny, with long brown hair and blue eyes. She wears long sleeved shirts and long pants, and is usually fiddling with her hair or her necklace, which is a simple string of leather. : She's fairly shy and nervous, and gets embarrassed easily. She hopes to over come this shyness, but she doesn't know how to get there. : Robinsong
Asha : 19 : Female : Middle : Regal Copper : Sunset : Asha is a tall human, probably about 5’9” in height. She has wavy dark brown hair that falls down to her midsection, but she often keeps it tied back in a thin braid or bun. Her eyes are a smokey grey-blue, and her namesake. She dresses for functionality, not style, and honestly doesn't care what others think about her appearances. : Asha is a quiet and thoughtful woman, always contemplating every decision before jumping into things. While she'd prefer to read a good book rather than talk to people, she exudes a kind of quiet confidence when talking about a subject she loves. Asha also thinks up elaborate battle plans before fighting, calculating most everything that could go wrong. Pair her brains with her dragon’s brute strength, and you have a deadly combination. : StarryDreamer : Her brother is Leo
Leonardo (Leo): 19 : Male : Middle : The Greyling : Smokey : Leo is fairly tall, reaching about 5’6” in height. His hair falls in amber locks around his head, reaching down to slightly above his shoulders. He has freckles along his cheeks, chin, and neck that are very faint. His eyes are a dark green, and always hold a certain air of bitterness and resentment about them.: Leo’s always had a somewhat cynical view on life, and he’s become extremely bitter after his sister got a ‘better’ dragon than him. He has a one-sided rivalry with her, always trying to one-up her even as she tries to help him. He's not necessarily an introvert, but he certainly has a negative view on humanity as a whole. : StarryDreamer : His sister is Asha

Beth walked to the outskirts of town from her home. She was happy to get away from her obnoxious mother who wanted to find her a husband already. To Beth, that was too soon, why can't she live her life until she feels ready to be married? The very thought of her mother forcing her into such a thing made her want to hit a wall, but she kept going. Beth was going to go to the Dragon's Keep just outside the capital of Dratonia, Windfall. The Dragon's Keep was an enormous building that only certain breeds of dragons are kept. Her dragon, a Malachite Reaper, was one of them. She just needed to feel the wind in her hair and the sun on her face for a while. She pulled the lever that rolled up the door, it was almost like the castle's main gate only bigger. She called out into the Dragon's Keep, "Riggs!" Soon enough she heard the thundering steps of Riggs coming towards her. He was almost like a dog in a way and sat down on his hind legs with his tounge out. Riggs bent his head down to her height, "Hi there big boy." She told him as he rubbed his nose. Beth climbed up and over his head and down his neck onto her saddle. It did not cover his body since he was huge, but instead only wrapped around one of the many spikes that went down his neck.

Alec hadn't be up to much these past few days, only moving where the winds had taken him. Today that was Windfall, or it was going to be Windfall, as he and Catamundi hadn't quite arrived there yet. He shifted in his saddle, stretching lazily as if he wasn't 1,000 feet up in the air in the worlds most powerful dragon. With a slight nudge, he ushered Catamundi, or Catty for short, to breeze closer to the ground. He was in no hurry to reach Windfall, knowing fair well that nothing would dare try anything while his Catty was around, with a loud crashing sound, Catamundi landed atop a hill with huff. Alec leaned forward and patted his girls shoulder,"I know, but you'd flatten the city if we flew in their now." He said with a chuckle, that was the only downside to having a Celetisal, really. They were way to large to do more than squish things when they where on land, in the air though.

Beth commanded her dragon forward. Riggs, she thought, decided to try to be funny and flew almost vertically up into the air. She was so taken aback by his actions she fell off at the worst time, when they were above the clouds. Beth screamed when she felt herself falling. Riggs gave a cry of distress and dived after her, not wanting to let Beth hit the ground. He caught her when she was past the cloud line. As she was falling, she saw a strange sight. A Celestial, the Rarest of dragon breeds. She forgot she was falling for a moment before Riggs had caught her. "You little..." she was about to curse but thought of it unlady like. Riggs let out a small whimper like he was sorry. Beth knew she couldn't stay mad at him but didn't want to say anything yet, instead, she told him to land by the Celestial. Riggs followed her command and landed by it a few yards away. She slid off of her dragon and stepped towards the Celestial, Beth noticed the rider nearby, "Is this your's?" She asked with curiosity.

Alec had paused in what he was doing, which was cleaning Catty's saddle, when had heard a scream. He jumped up and Catamundi hissed loudly as they watched a women fall out of the sky, only to be caught by, hopefully, her dragon. Alec's gazed followed them as they circled for a moment before landing close by. He ducked under Catamundi's head, patting her neck he passed, and smiled slyly. "Yup!" He announced with a smile and reached his hands out, motioning for Catty to come closer, which she did with her head cocked curiously at Riggs. "This is my girl Catamundi, but you can call her Catty for short." He explained, and paused a moment, holding out his hand. "I'm Alec, and you two are?"

Beth tucked a hair behind her ear that flew out of place when she had her little 'accident'. "I'm Beth Greene, and this" She motioned to Riggs, "and this is my Malachite Reaper, Riggs. Hopefully you didn't see me fall." She said in a slightly joking, slightly serious tone. Riggs tries to be funny but usually someone ends up getting hurt in the process. But he meant well, no matter how dumb he acted. Riggs sat on his hind legs again, tounge flapping out. That was her favorite look that he gave her. "Well she is very beautiful. You must be very lucky to have such a dragon. I hope you think Riggs isn't too shabby either." She chuckled

(NEVER GIVE UP! STAY DETERMINED!)
Asha gently whirled around the sky, her dragon making lazy circles in the air above Aerindale. The Regal Copper let out a slight grunt, shaking his wings and neck in the breeze. "I know, Sunset," whispered the young rider, gently patting his neck. "You'd rather be doing something. Well, we have a long way to go before we reach Windfall, so you just hush." The dragon let out another grunt, rolling his eyes. Sighing, Asha resorted to bribery. "The quicker you fly, the sooner we'll get there and be able to do something..." Sunset let our a cry of joy, putting on a sudden burst of speed that whipped Asha's hair behind her. She chuckled slightly, before calling back over her shoulder, "C’mon, Leo! Keep up!" Leo lurked behind, kicking his dragon spastically to keep it moving. "Get moving, you lazy lug," he muttered darkly, pausing to swipe some of his hair out of his eyes. "Or we're gonna get shown up by Asha's Majestic Copper." Leo rolled his eyes as the dragon tried it's best to keep up with his sister's pace. "Honestly, I can't wait until I trade you out at Windfall..."

I have no clue where Robinsong went so I'll just pretend Beth is in the air still lol)
Beth glared at Riggs after he caught her from the fall, but soon spoke in a softer tone after he looked at her with his big, sad eyes. "You know I can't be mad at you, but don't try anything got it?" She pointed her finger at him. Riggs gave an excited roar, one that made her seat vibrate. "Well isn't someone excited?" She asked him. Riggs almost gave a smile before picking up speed. Beth realized where she was going now. Riggs was taking her back to Windfall. Her mother probably told him to keep her in the city limits. "Of course mother has to ruin all of my phone!" She rolled her eyes and huffed but held on tight to the roped that kept her steady. "What's that?" She saw two things flying in the sky. One the silhouette of a Greyling and the enormous beast of a Regal Copper. "Who else is up here?" She asked to herself but her thoughts were interrupted when Riggs jerked forward towards them. He was always excited to see other dragons. Before Beth knew what was going on, she found herself flying nearby the other riders. To not seem awkward she decided to say something, "Hi!" She called out.
