This little pearlcatcher has a striking resemblance to one of our Chieftains. Perhaps that’s important to note...

 Aster was named for the hue of her tail, which resembles the vibrant pink of the aster blossom. 

I have made an observation...

YES I NEED BIG FAT ANIME EYES

The Final Chieftain: The Obsidian leader Luxtail!

Luxtail is a magician of stealth and sleight-of-claw, using his bright tail as a point of distraction for his tricks. Though his clan's skills were passed down with entertainment in mind, he's begun using those skills for combat and defense from increasingly dangerous animal attacks. He works very well with Lillune and Arkadi, and goes to them for advice or when he needs help crafting new combat techniques.

As Chief, he isn't afraid to change for the good of his clan, even if it means changing tradition. This ideal rubs the Aurum Chieftain Amber the wrong way, and the two end up butting heads in and out of the council room. He loves performing parlor tricks for others, just to see the awe and wonder on their faces. His clan support the addition of combat to their arsenal, but(like him) are still better at acting out a dramatic fight scene than actually participating in one...

Gonna miss the egg eaters!! Any plans on making a new(old?) group of egg eaters? Also, what's your plan for the website?

They're still here, not to worry!!

The new account is centered around the Talosian's ancestors a few centuries or so after each subclan was founded, and will detail The Cerulean Crisis (I linked the original draft, but have since rewritten a few details just a heads up). No ancient egg eaters planned, but if the story calls for it why not? I'm currently working on portraits/designs for the main characters of this ancient story, so once that's done I'll begin work on the long overdue update of the website.

Is there any reason in particular plague dragons keep popping up as villians in your lore or is it just coincidence?

I have a love-hate relationship with Plague, and the feelings often times clash. On one hand, the themes of survival, decay, life, and the struggle that comes from that, is profoundly cool to me and fun to play with in fiction. -Their eye colors are also second only to light in my opinion; they look like rubies-.

On the other hand...I DEEPLY abhor irl suffering brought about by illness and physical ailment . Having plague dragons always present is a love-letter to Plague's interesting lore, while having them almost always be villains is self-indulgent hate-mail to the concept of suffering via illness and plague...

The timing of this question is pretty notable, too, as I just recovered(thankfully) from the virus-that-should-not-be-named. My hatred for being sick has been renewed once again.
