Silversong Sept: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 16:54, 8 January 2017

The Silversong sept was a lesser branch of the house of Dreamsong. The branch only lasted a few thousand years before being absorbed into the Dreamsong line.

Appearance and Traits

Silversongs were typically stockier than the average Moon Elf. Traits of their Fierre heritage from Shalenil run true within the house, but were lost immediately with intermarriage to other septs. Only marriages to Dreamsong retained any familial traits; mostly singing abilities. They were very creative, and excellent singers. They had a strong tendency for fiery red hair, though pale gold hair is also fairly common. Eyes are most often red, but purple eyes are common, with glittering gold flecks. Skin tones are the usual creamy with twinges of pale blue.

The sept was known for producing minstrels, wizards and craftsmen, with some renowned priests and warriors. Their skilled artisans produced a variety of quality crafts including weapons, musical instruments and fine goods such as jewelry.

Insignia

The sept insignia is a silver bow strung with an arrow with a star shaped head having a golden nimbus, all on a field of green.

The colors of the sept are green with gold and silver decoration.
