Wyrmscale Family

Overview:
The Wyrmscale family, residing on the Ashen Isle, values dragon lore, strength, and isolation. They have long embraced solitude, focusing on preserving ancient knowledge of dragons and cultivating immense physical strength. The Wyrmscales are reclusive, rarely interacting with other families, believing that isolation is the key to maintaining power and wisdom.

Region/Territory:
The Ashen Isle, specifically the mountainous, volcanic areas away from the Ashspire family’s influence. The primary city for the Wyrmscales is Drakeguard Keep, a fortress high in the volcanic peaks, where they practice their dragon-lore rituals.

Notable Members:

• Rhaegor Wyrmscale – A master of dragon lore, known for his study of ancient draconic texts and artifacts.
• Valyria Wyrmscale – A warrior known for slaying a volcanic dragon, cementing the family’s legacy of strength and isolation.

Artifacts:

• Drakefire Amulet – A relic said to channel the power of dragon fire, passed down through the Wyrmscale family.
• Scales of the Wyrm – A set of enchanted armor made from the scales of the last known dragon of the Ashen Isle.
• Dragon’s Fang Spear – A spear made from the fang of a great wyrm, said to have the power to pierce any armor.

Alliances/Rivalries:

• Allies: Minimal alliances due to their isolationist nature. However, they occasionally form pacts with the Ashspire family, as both families value power and control over the Ashen Isle.
• Rivalries: Tensions with the Windmere family, as the Wyrmscales believe the seas surrounding the Ashen Isle are their dominion, clashing with the Windmere’s explorative nature.

Age History:

• Age of Divergence: The Wyrmscale family remained mostly secluded, focusing on the preservation of dragon lore, though they were called upon during several key battles for their immense strength.
• Shadowed Age: While Zaroth’s corruption spread, the Wyrmscales retreated further into their fortress, only emerging when their power was truly needed.
• Age of Restoration: The family continues to uphold their isolationist stance, focusing on strengthening their bloodline and expanding their dragon lore.
