Scavenged Ancestry
You can see the intro post of this RP here for information: https://scavenged-ancestry-wof.tumblr.com/post/627118157511917568/scavenged-ancestry-rp-intro
This post will let you know what information you need to apply for the RP. Applications will be open until the 30th, next Sunday, at 9PM EST. Here are the rules regarding the character, following the break:
1. Must be the descendant of a dragon, in spite of being a human. 2. The amount of knowledge regarding their ancestry is up to the individual; they may already know, they may be completely ignorant, they may have false information, believe the truth to be a legend, or anything else. 3. Must be at least 5 years old, no upper limit, but must be somewhat mobile. Their dragon transformation turns them into the equivalent in maturity, rather then being the same literal age. 4. Has begun transforming at most 6 months before the start of the RP, and at least the day before the start of the RP. 5. The nature of the transformation is up to the individual. 6. While descended from dragons, some of the exact details of their transformation may be affected by their own misconceptions about dragons, such as having too many teeth or the like. Don't go too wild with this, or you application will be rejected. Generally, keep them recognizable as a member of the tribe of their ancestor, if a mutated version. 7. Any things like melanism or albinism, or any type of scarring must remain in both forms. 8. The character's draconic ancestor must be deceased, but otherwise may be any number of generations away. You character may have known them before they were deceased. 9. Do not know the true reason they are now transforming. 10. Were compelled to go to the city of Goldmine, located in the mountains between the Ice Kingdom and Sand Kingdom, for reasons beyond their own comprehension. 11. Have 3 skills, and 1 flaw. If you don't want a flaw, only take 2 skills. These do not include powers caused by their draconic ancestry. These will affect dice rolls made in the RP.
To apply, submit a profile formatted as following to this tumblr’s messages.
Name: Tribe: Age: Pronouns: Hometown: Skills: Flaw:
This is a map involving the towns you may choose as your characters hometown, though you may also make your own  minor town if you’d prefer.
Tumblr media
A quick rundown: Anchovy is a fishing community known by others as fierce warriors. Fallows is a poor community surrounded by fierce winds. Goldmine is a rich town with a yearly festival celebrating a magical dragon. Valor is an underground city with a history of tyrannical rulers. Drakeruin is a knowledgeable city recently founded in the ruins of an ancient dragon kingdom. Pinetop is a logging town with a reputation for being cowardice, having surrendered immediately to the the king of the Eastern Kingdom in the past. Indestructible City is a city with a history of being fierce and warmongers. Safe Harbor is a city said to be passive, with no motivation in world events. Harvest is a town with a history of farming and sacrifice. Sanctuary is a strange city where humans are protected by dragons, but the people are said to be placid in their acceptance of pampering by the beasts.
If you have any extra questions, just ask!

Scavenged Ancestry RP Intro
A curse. A blessing. A quirk of fate. To save a life, or to remove an enemy. Over the centuries there have been many reasons. So slowly, so subtly, it’s unnoticeable to even those casting the spells. While some didn’t last, others managed to bear a legacy regardless, these dragons turned into scavengers.
You were descended from such a creature. Whether you know or not is irrelevant. You are scavenger in every way, in spite of the secret of your ancestry. Such is the nature of the magic after all. Just like all your ancestors since that one special spark in your family tree.
That’s how it was, and how it should have been. But then one day you woke up with an ache in your body. Perhaps your irises turned into slits, your skin turned into patches of scales. You grew claws, or your throat burned with fire or you started to bleed blue. The details didn’t matter. What did matter was that you were changing. Could you tell into what? Or were you in denial? Your condition progressed regardless.
Then one day you heard it. A siren call. You and every other like you were called to a single location, though not with persuasion or threat. It was more basic and primal then that. A single over powering need to gather together with the peers you never knew you had. How you justified it didn’t matter. This was just the beginning of your story. A story of two worlds juxtaposed on each other, and those who would cross that boundary.
This is the basis of the WoF RP, Scavenged Ancestry. More information about how to apply forthcoming.
