Callide's Clan

In the concave side of one of the Crystalspine peaks, a strange, wide-mouthed cavern digs deep into the side of the mountain. If one looks at it long enough, perspective reorients, and it can be seen for what it is - an ancient crater left when a meteor burrowed into the side of the crystalline mountain. The stone, larger than an adult Fae, still lies in the centre, fused into the roots of the mountain by the heat and violence of its impact. Over the years it has grown a covering of carefully engraved runes and arcane symbols; an artistic work added to by each new dragon that calls Callide their home. The hollow around it now plays host to the roosts, burrows, and houses built by the varied dragons of Clan Callide.

Founded by Clementia and Atavus, then a young, starry-eyed pair of mates eager to leave a life of wandering and create something lasting, the clan is named after Clementia's mother, now long passed. She was a great scholar and archaeologist, burning with a great passion for knowledge matched only by her desire to share it with any who were willing to learn. In her honour, the dragons of Clan Callide devote themselves to academic study of the varied facets of the arcane arts. And in her memory, they will never turn away a single soul who comes to them in search of knowledge.

If you see a dragon you like and would keep, just let me know; I'm usually happy to let them go free to a good home.
