~Plot: A shrill cry echoed into the early morning mist, and pierced the entire sky. It was a wake-up call of sorts, and all the creatures on the ground emerged from their dens and caves, while the birds of the air took flight from their nests and roosts. The whole land glowed with the warmth of the rising sun, and the cool morning breeze rustled softly through the trees, and over the lakes, rivers, and streams. It was time for the day to begin once again......~

Tribes.
There are four tribes each with their own cultures....
#1: The Dragons, strong and powerful.
#2: The Griffins, sharp and dapper.
#3: Phoenixes, Hot-headed, and elegant.
#4: Esks, peaceful and pleasant.

(Now, heads up, none of the species listed can crossbreed or intermix, but there can be the occasional Romeo and Juliet! :))

~The dragons will live in a variety of habitats, around mountains, and volcanoes, sometimes even near hot springs. They often can be found around large sources of heat, and never really stray far from it.`
The dragons do not need magic as they make up for it in strength and brawn, as well as a massive armory. But some may practice it as a simple pastime or hobby if taught.... ;) I don't know much about the relationships of dragons other than their pretty solitary creatures.:idunno ~

(Griffins and dragons don't usually get along very well....)

~The Griffins, will live in forests and up around the mountain's peaks. They nest in tall trees, and high up in the mountains. Their feathers are always groomed and they are a very well kept up tribe. They are very orderly, and are often in monogamous pairs, meaning they mate for life. Broods or clutches usually consist of 1-3 eggs per pair.
Griffins are gifted in the art of traditional magic, and can be quite secretive at times. Though not all Griffins will choose to practice magic. Griffins are also very skilled in the art of talon to talon combat and are very skillful fighters. (Their young will be raised up learning either magic or combat, sometimes maybe even both or neither at all.)~

~Phoenixes, will live in desert wastelands and often nest in the high bare trees in medium-sized nests. They are the size of large eagles, and often look quite similar to hawks and falcons. They usually have long head and tail feathers in bright colors. Like the griffins, they too practice the art of magic and love the heat like the dragons. Their kind of like the best of both worlds, beautiful feathers with nice heat tolerance. They too mate for life and usually have a clutch of one to two. Rarely three, because of the wasteland conditions. (But three is possible! :)) They are fierce defenders of their nests and can be quite aggressive at times toward unknown intruders.
As for their magic, they perform spirit magic, though their specialty is healing magic. It's often said that a phoenix's tear can heal any wound. Making them a valuable item for healers of any tribe.~

~Esks are by far, the most peaceful and resourceful tribe. Esks have no way of protecting themselves, other than hiding in dens and thick brushes along with their natural camouflage. They do use magic, but only for growing resources that feed and protect their little tribe. It's called Overgrowth! :) They are very social among their own kind but are very skittish around other tribes. Life is very good to them, and food and water are not an issue at this time. They can come in a variety of colors, but they are mainly earthy tones with white faces and/or tails and can have various markings. Females are usually smaller than males and their tails usually drag on the ground.

Magic and Skills.
(Anyone can do it.) (Some may have to be trained in the art of other magics and combat though.)
There are two types of skills, magic, and combat....
Magic, is well, just magic. There is good and bad magic. It can be anything you want! :) (But please, try not to use bad magic excessively.)
Combat is the art of fighting either from talon to talon or with weapons.

Dragons are excellent at plain old combat, their large size and superiority makes up for any magical ability.
Griffins specialize in the use of traditional magic and combat, which is a very useful but dangerous combo.
Esks specialize in Overgrowth (I made it up myself for the rp!) Overgrowth grows plants excessively.
Phoenixes specialize in healing and spirit magic.

Every 4 years there is a week-long competition, where creatures of all kinds come together to see whose the most powerful.
There are multiple events to take part in, such as swimming, use of magic, talon to talon combat, plant growth, and just about anything else you can think of. It's very exciting and can be for all creatures over the age of juvenile. Mainly just adults and/or young adults compete. All will take time to train in between competitions, which as I said, are held every four years.

Ranks.
(Ranks are the same as in any other roleplay, just the usual.) (Leader, second in command, citizen, teacher, student, healer, child, etc.)

Hmm, sure! :D Accepted, can anybody see her?
(How do you rp a ghost?) 🤔 .
 
from what I've seen from ghost characters in rps she'll be slightly transparent and I guess dead XD I have no idea how to explain this.
ok so, I guess think like a regular living character but opaque, if that's the right word.
Cool, awesome! :) I've never rped with a ghost before!

Yeah, opaque is the right word, transparent also comes to mind....

Oh, and sorry that I don't know much about anything magic... :oops: That's why I have my character as good in combat, because I know about that a lot more than magic.
