YSERA AND THE GREEN DRAGONFLIGHT
YSERA THE DREAMER
Also blessed by the titan of life Eonar, ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
Ysera exists in eternal sleep, only opening her eyes in the most dire of times. She is known as the Dreamer, forever bound to the Emerald Dream, a spiritual realm and image of Azeroth untouched and uncorrupted by intelligent life. It is within this realm that Ysera shapes the growth and evolution of the world around her. As a result of her state of being, Ysera is almost never seen in a solid state, but rather in a shifting ethereal plane between worlds.

The Emerald Sanctum is perhaps the most treacherous of all for outsiders to brave. Immediately upon entering, those Dragonsworn not of the Green Flight will find themselves slowly losing consciousness. Without physical contact with a Greensworn to ground them, the character will eventually succumb to slumber before being evicted or devoured by the surrounding plant life.
It is impossible to see sky amongst the canopy of trees that litter the Emerald Sanctum. It rains often here, though shelter is easy to find and the sound of thunder is almost always rumbling through the forest haven. In fact, it seems that the only solid and living creatures here are the plant and animal life that cover the whole of the Sanctum. Finding a solid Dragonkin becomes luck of the draw here. If you are unfortunate enough to stumble upon the clutches of eggs, you will soon find yourself surrounded by protective guardians...very solid and very judgmental. Oh, and try not to pick the flowers either. You will receive similar reactions. At least half of the flowering plants also bear fruit, though a good portion of it is poisonous to mortals. Green Dragons are not very keen on feeding from their sanctum (as most of them are carnivores and also guardians of the Emerald Dream), so there is a stockpile of meats held in one of the burrows beneath a particularly large tree in the sanctum, where dragonsworn are welcome to take from...so long as they assist in filling it back up afterward. Nearby is an armory stockpiled with well-crafted armor and weapons. Those taking more than they obviously need will find themselves falling asleep, with the extra items mysteriously returned to the rack when they awaken. Recently cleared, there is a placid lake prime for bathing, sheltered by smooth rocks and vines.
Ysera is not difficult to find wandering about the Sanctum, though she is most often found on her own rise in what appears to be a deep slumber. Approach her, and you will find that her eyes follow you behind closed lids. Asleep, though always watching.

EMERALD DRAGONSWORN
People who are idealistic and concerned with the big truths about the world will find themselves drawn to the Green Dragonflight above all. Ysera, though kinder than most of the other Aspects, generally does not enjoy the company of those who are not her own. Greensworn often do not trust others to complete tasks on their own and often find ways to help or ways to take matters into their own hands. Those who seek to keep balance and order and those who wish to heal the world around them contain qualities precious to the Green Dragonflight. Natural progression, evolution of society, and the purest form of knowledge are things Greensworn would appreciate.
Upon being sworn into the Green Dragonflight, characters will find themselves granted the following abilities:
Upon being sworn into the Green Dragonflight, characters will find themselves granted the following abilities:
Dreamwalking: Greensworn are gifted with the ability to walk in the dreams of all sentient life, granting them visions of the subconscious of other creatures. Skilled Dragonsworn may manipulate the dreamscape of others via their ethereal form, allowing them to cause nightmares or make dreams more pleasant. This ability has varying degrees of success when used on other Dragonsworn and cannot be used while the target is awake. The act of dreamwalking will also shield Dragonsworn from attacks for a short time.
Wild Growth: Greensworn, children of the Emerald Dream, will gain the ability to manipulate plant life around them as well as the ability to force new growth. Is there a large demon charging at you? Quickly root it with the nearest tree root so you can get away! Need a bit of food before heading out to battle? Force the bush beside you to bear its fruit for you. And don't worry about whether or not its safe to eat...you'll already know thanks to this ability!
Dragonbreath: Born of nature's purest form, Greensworn will gain mastery over manipulation of the elements of life, be it to poison victims or to send them to slumber. Green poison clouds or blue slumber mist come at the beck and call of Greensworn and are difficult to cure prior to a 24 hour period.
