Ability genetics

disclaimer: this has nothing to do with how rare an ability is. it shows how they are linked and passed down genetically, and how they can work together.

children are more likely to get their parents ability or an ability from the same category as their parents. (IE. a child with a Froster parent is more likely to Manifest as a Froster but can also Manifest as any ability in the Nimbiferous category) this applies to every category of ability

though there is something unique with Elemental abilities in some cases a child with a Elemental parent will get a random Elemental ability that wasn’t in the same category of their parent. it’s unknown what causes this phenomenon and there is continual research going into it.

Elven Medicine

SPECIALTIES Written By: @nyxpixels

Outside of general practice there are those who choose to specialize in specific healthcare fields.

Examples:

General Physician Specialists

General Physicians: Physicians who practice general medicine, without any specialties. Most of these types of physicians are also public physicians and can be found on the PPL.

Family Physicians (Aka Private Physicians): Physicians who privately care for specific families. These physicians may be general practitioners, or specialized healers.

Maternity Physicians: Physicians who care for pregnant women and newborns.

Pediatric Physicians: Physicians who care for children between the ages of 2-18.

Ancient Physicians: Physicians who specialize in healthcare for ancient elves.

Ability Physicians

Talented Healers: Physicians who work with individuals with abilities. (General)

Elemental Physicians: Physicians who work with individuals who have elemental abilities. (Flashers, Shades, Chargers, Gusters, Frosters, Pyrokinetics, Hydrokinetics, Technopaths.)

Mind Healers: Physicians who work with individuals who have mental abilities. Oftentimes these physicians are Telepaths, or Empaths. (Telepaths, Mesmer’s, Empaths, Inflictors, Enhancers.)

Physical Ability Physicians: Physicians who work with individuals who have physical abilities. (Vanishers, Phasers, Conjurers.)

Vocal Healers: Physicians who work with individuals who have vocal abilities. (Vociferators Polyglots, Beguilers.)

I didn’t do the original ask but I’d love to see your idea of working class/banished fashion! Idk why but I just cannot picture elven fashion well so that’d be super helpful! (Only if you want to ofc)

im gonna do separate posts for each, because the fashion is different. so if wanna send another ask for the neutral territories fashion go ahead.

just a disclaimer the masculine clothes would be more colorful but i couldn’t find any pictures. also caplets would be a pretty big thing.

ELVEN DRESS: LABOR WEAR

Written by: Florence vixen

Underwear is gender neutral for the most part. Cotton undershorts are worn by everyone. Linen undershirts are used to line the outfit and wick up moisture. These are always short sleeved. A laie (1) supports the back. Depending on body shape and size the corset can cover the chest. Underwear can be as decorated or as discreet as the owner wishes.

Overwear usually consists of a plain shirt and pants combo. The shirt can be long or short sleeved depending on the weather. It is usually an earthy tone with a bit of embroidery at the collar. It fits loosely around the chest but is more fitted every where else. Pants are in earthy tone with no decoration. Both can match in color but it’s considered unnecessary. The pants also fit loosely but don’t bulge out. Pants can be exchanged for knee length shorts depending on the weather. A jacket can be worn in winter but legs are left as they are for freedom of movement. Sturdy ankle boots would be worn.

Hair is covered in a linen cloth to wick moisture and protect from heat. The cloth is called a wrap . There are many ways to wear the cloth and the style is usually up to personal choice. Long hair is plaited and pinned into a bun. The wrap would be pinned into place. For shorter hair it would be wrapped as it was and tied at the nape of the neck.

This is worn by the untitled classes and nobles rarely don it. It is used for gardening or other manual labor which in titled homes is done primarily by gnomes. It is considered the least formal wear even for form (2) clothing and is only worn when around family. Wearing it in public or when guests visit is considered rude.

An Unlikely Trio

Scarect eyed the goblin warrior, and drew his blade. The other figure returned the gesture, and lunged at Scarect. The two engaged in combat for several minutes, various fluids coating their bodies. They only paused their fatal dance,when they heard a small crash sound out from the forest floor. They turned their heads and saw the limp figure of a young gnome girl. She had fallen from the tree above her, which had sheltered her from view. They both approached her, wordlessly agreeing on a temporary truce. The goblin gently prodded the girl several times, each attempt as fruitless as the last. Scarect gently scooped up the girl, and examined her face. A large scratch ran from her eye to her cheek, blood already clotting up over it. The goblin stood a few strides away from them, ready to attack at any sign of aggression against the girl. Scarect ignored him and started carrying the fragile figure home. The goblin followed close behind, still wary of the ogre. They reached the humble estate, and Scarect led them to the the medicine cabinet. He tended to her wounds and waited for her to wake up. To fill the silence, the goblin started making polite conversation. It was awkward for a while, but soon became relaxed. He learned the goblin’s name was Ares. The conversation went on for a while, about everything and nothing. The girl stirred, and they froze in anticipation. Her eyes fluttered, and she pushed herself upright. She took in her surroundings and started panicking. Both of them rushed to calm her down, and were successful after a couple moments. Ares explained what had happened in a calm voice. He asked her what her name was. She whispered something that sounded like Iris. He smiled and told her it was a very pretty name. That made her beam, and she seemed slightly more relaxed. Scarect asked her why she was in the forest. She said it was because she was visiting her parent’s grave. Guilt washed over the two men. Both of them were more determined than ever to make her feel comfortable. Ares went to grab a blanket, and Scarect started making her soup. She seemed content to watch as they made her as comfortable as possible. A couple days passed in a blur. Iris’s wounds disappeared almost completely. Even though neither of them would admit it, the two men had grown quite used to the other’s company. Their little fight, nothing but a distant memory. A feeling settled over the trio, something that could only be described as home.

hey Quill, i’m working on the Kotlcopedia and have finnished the Ogre page and while i have ideas for the Goblins and Gnomes, but have no ideas for Trolls and Dwarves, can hear every idea you have for them

if i get all the species and 3-5 abilities done then i get to make the index, which is a reward because i’m Autistic and a index is just a fancy list.

Hello! Thanks for your patience as I answered this; I didn't mean to take as long as I did, but hopefully this helps with your kotlcopedia! It's my understanding that this is an assortment of headcanons not necessarily aligned with canon, right? I think that's what you said it is, so that's the idea I'll base my response around :)

Trolls:

They have an increased tolerance to extreme temperatures, able to withstand more extreme heat than any other species and are more resilient to the cold, though the cold gets to them quicker than the heat. However as they progress through the stages of their lives, this tolerance fades slightly; by the time they're in their final stages it's significantly weakened, but they're still more hardy than humans and elves.

Additionally, through each stage of their lives their organs shift--some more extreme than others. They have the most during the newborn stage of their lives, and as they grow older they break down and merge with other nearby organs that become more important in later stages, similar to how human newborns have more bones than adults, bones that fuse together as they age. It's unknown the extent of the differences in organs between newborns and later stages, as interacting with newborns is dangerous even for other trolls. It's believed some of the organs are used are absorbed as nutrition for the brain as it develops away from it's senseless violence newborn condition.

Trolls are a very social species, their cities and homes built close together and dense with the intention of allowing everyone to coexist and rely on each other. Cities were originally designed with separate districts/sections for those in different life stages, allowing people to stay together and bond with their generation and progress through life together. Communication would occur across sections however, alerting the trolls to the benefit of sharing experiences and relying on one another, and now trolls of all stages live alongside one another. It is still possible to find concentrations of those all in the same stage, but that's most common among the youngest--who do not yet known how to exist alongside others--and the oldest--who are more fragile and prefer to converse with one another.

Dwarves:

Similar to a mole, dwarven fur is so dense that it cannot be penetrated by water or dirt, and it instead only clings to the outside of their bodies, easily shed by shaking it off. This makes them more suited to living underground and makes the waxing of the ruler more significant. It is considered a show of power, but is in a sense a surrender of power to the people. A waxed dwarf is less suited to their own home and must rely on their people in terms of building tunnels, in protecting the city, and more. It shows the power of the people and the faith between ruler and ruled, as the ruler has significant motivation to serve the best interests of their people.

Dwarves are the most connected species simply because of their size. With a population of little over 300, there is no need for homes outside of one location, and those who stray too far from Loamnore almost always end up returning. Almost every dwarf knows the name of all other dwarves with more than just a working knowledge of who they are. This is not to say they are all intimately familiar with each other, but rather that it's inevitable to come to know each other when all in one place after a few centuries. Even with their houses all separate from each other, day to day life brings them into each others' paths from time to time.

The dwarven language is naturally a louder language to allow it to travel better across long distances underground, given the separation dwarves prefer despite being so connected. However, two dwarves in the same space will speak in tones quiet enough that it's nearly imperceptible to human ears given dwarves advanced senses. Given that dwarves are frequently speaking to each other from a distance or while engaged in another activity--such as tunneling--, emphasis is put on intonation and manner of speaking and less so on body language. Dwarves frequently do not move or express themselves facially when speaking, as their language prioritizes other methods of communication. Those more fluent in other languages with express more body language to match the native cadence of those languages, but it is a learned behavior.

I don't know how much information you wanted or about what, but hopefully that's enough to get you started! Thanks for the ask and I hope your fancy list goes well !!

White Noise

As much as Juline hated secrets, she had never wanted Kesler to know about her involvement with the Black swan. she wanted him to be far away from it. she didn’t want him to be in danger. but she her involvement was revealed out of her control, and it hurt Kesler in a way that made Juline worry if she had ruined their relationship for good.

In The Stars (on going series)

The In The Stars series is a look at Sophie and Dex’s kidnapping from their parent's pov, and how they all react to their children’s supposed death in their own ways during the two in a half weeks their children are missing.

Elwin deals with a lot of guilt from not being able to save all the kids who were banished. he doesn’t like to think about it or think about himself at all. he puts all his energy into Keefe because he thinks it will be easier to focus on one kid. but it proves to be a lot harder than he had anticipated

Scars on Butterfly Wings

After he got away from the Neverseen Tam had been acting different and avoiding Biana. When she finally got the chance to talk to him it didn’t go the direction she expected

[official-kenralie-fanbase]

oaky you mentioned wanting to have more info on Beguilers and i’ve got a handful of headcannon so

they don’t get sweet talk people, they can cause fear, calm people down, and change the emotion of their voice with ease no matter how they really feel. which is useful in politics because no matter how they feel about a situation they can keep a calm front and appear to be in effected by what’s happening around them. but it results in a lot of them not knowing how to express emotions properly

it’s a relatively rare ability (though not as rare as Telepaths) but it’s not uncommon to have a second ability manifest if they’re a Beguiler, and is second to Polyglots in having a second ability. ratio wise

when the ability is being used the Beguliers eyes will subtly flash with ripples of light, if a Beguiler is good at what they do they can time their blinking to go along with the flashing so it won’t be noticeable.

These are super cool! The "not knowing how to express emotions properly" is really interesting to me, since on the kotlcopedia Beguiling was connected to both emotional and vocal abilities in the ability chart, and Empaths are notorious for not properly expressing emotions. It makes me wonder if an Empath parent could have a Beguiler child or vice versa.

Ooh I love the ripples of light in the Beguiler's eye idea, that's so fun to picture! Thanks for sending me your hcs, they're awesome :D

Ability Categorization Explanation 

written by Percival Mazarine

abilities are sorted into four main categories depending on how they effect the body and mind. the four categories are Cognitive, Physical, Vocal, Elemental. Cognitive Abilities effect the mind and emotions, Physical abilities effect the physical form and appearance, Vocal Abilities effect the vocal cords and speech, and lastly Elemental effect both the mind, body, and even the emotions of the elf with the ability. not only are they sorted on how they effect the elf with the ability they are also sorted on how they are passed down from parent to child.

Cognitive abilities 

Cognitive abilities are sorted into two subcategories, Mental and Emotional.

the Mental abilities (Telepath and Memser) effect the minds of the elf and those around them, they use similar blocking techniques, and have the strongest mental power and awareness of the location of their consciousness than any other elf. they deal with constant headaches from the energy it takes to keep their consciousness in their mind.

the Emotional abilities (Inflictor, Empath, *Enhancer) effect the emotions of the elves and those around them, hence the name. elves with these abilities are either completely emotionally distant, or highly emotional. they deal with emotional breakdowns from the stress of their or others emotionally

as there is only one Dyscryer, it has not been placed in a subcategory. if there is any more information found on the ability, it may be placed in a category in the future.

*while Enchaner’s don’t necessarily effect the emotions it works so similarly to the Empath ability and every Enchaner has had a Empath parent

Physical Abilities

physical abilities effect the physical state or appearance (Vanisher, Phaser) or effect the location or form of the objects around them (Conjurer, Fluctuator). they effect the body and how it feels in the world. the elves with these abilities can get sensory overloads from to much sensory input, weather that be to much light for Vanishers or to many objects for a Conjurer, and will need a empty and quite space to calm down.

Vocal Abilities 

vocal abilites effect the vocal cords and the voice of those with the ability (Polyglot, *Beguiler, Vociferator). all vocal abilities used to all be considered Polyglots because of how similar they are but over time it came into light that they where three separate abilities. all vocal abilities can mimic but they each of a type of mimicking that comes easily to them. Polyglots, mimics accents and voices. Beguilers emotional tone of voice no matter what they are feeling, and Vociferators can mimic any noise. while it’s normally Polyglots that will manifest a second ability, it’s often forgotten that Beguiler’s will also manifest a second time once in a while. in rare cases Vociferators have manifested a second time as well (there are two on record)

*Beguilers are also considered an emotional ability because of how it effects those who hear it, but it is categorized as a Vocal ability because of its similarities to Polyglot 

Elemental Abilities

the Elemental Abilities is the largest category of abilities, and it has two subcategories Illusionist (Flasher, Shade) and Nimbiferous (Guster, Froster, Charger, Hydrokinetic) and the two uncategorized abilities (Technopath, Psionipath).

all Elemental abilities effect the body and mind of the elf. when manifesting, the elf’s physiology will change to align with the element they control (IE. a Froster will no longer feel cold, but will also get overheated easily). elves with elemental abilities also have somewhat delicate emotional states and easily lose control of their ability if upset, which is why they can be considered unstable. they also hear their element “speak” to them and can be heard speaking back to it at times in a “language” only they can understand, which furthers the implication that they are unstable.

the illusionist abilities (Flasher, Shade) control the dark and light, while they are linked to the emotions of the elf it’s no where near the same level as the Nimbiferous abilities. while Flashers are highly valued and vital part of the society, Shades are treated as untrustworthy and are outcasts. but they are both necessary and vital to our society. when they work together they can create illusions that are a incredibly useful tools that aren’t used as often as they should.

the elves with Nimbiferous abilities (Guster, Froster, Charger, Hydrokinetic) have the power to create storms and other natural disasters, and it’s something they can do from the moment they manifest. if untrained they can be a liability and cause destruction to the in the world around them. out of all the Elemental abilities those who have Nimbiferous abilities emotion’s have one of the strongest links to their ability. the stronger the emotion the less control they will have which can cause them to be dangerous if they are upset whether they have training or not. because of this the abilities in this subcategory are considered the most unstable, coming second to [REDACTED]. it’s vital to get them training from the moment they manifest, and if they run in the family it’s advised to start emotional control exercises pre manifesting age.

while Psionipath’s and Technopath’s don’t control an element, they are very similar in nature to the other elemental abilities.

Psionipath’s create force fields that are made of a mix of pure light and energy, which are two things that other elementals can control (Flashers, Chargers). their mental state is also somewhat similar to a Nimbiferous and their emotions can be similarly unstable if not taught the proper exercises. though according to research it’s also similar in nature to [REDACTED].

Techopaths while not having an emotional link to their ability, constantly mention technology speaking to them, which is something that is considered to be exclusive to elemental abilities. in rare cases Techopath’s can control technology which further is the categorization as an elemental ability.

[the-kotlcopedia]

Ogres: Appearance

they are bulky have sharp teeth, claws, and stand at about 6 feet tall.

their skin can come in any rock like pattern. having splotches of different colored skin is not uncommon and their hair tends to mimic their skin pattern. such as a Ogre with marbled skin will have naturally marbled hair. in rare cases their skin will be the same color as gemstones or have geode like skin. where most of their skin looks like a rock but they have Vitiligo like spots that are brightly colored.

I made a survey, it mostly covers those thing in the lore that everyone hates about the lore and will influence the kotlcopedia a bit

ELVEN DRESS: loungewear and sleepwear

Written by: Florence vixen

Traditionally there was no distinction between loungewear and sleepwear. A person would merely change into a near identical outfit for bed. Recent trends have transformed sleepwear into something completely unrecognizable.

Loungewear is a very vague term. The outer garments can be practically anything from robes, to shifts, to dresses. Undergarments are one of the only consistencies. Men wear simple cotton undershorts. Women will wear either a pair of combinations or a shift. Both of these garments can be as lacy or simple as the wearer wants. A laie (1) may be worn for certain activities such as letter writing but goes generally unused.

Younger men generally go around in loose clothes. They wore linen undershirts and pants. The pants are heavily embroidered. Some men prefer to go without pants and wear on their undershorts. They may wear a robe over this when the weather gets cold. Older men generally wear a long robe. Robes have three highly decorated ties braided together. These ties can be separated to hitch up the sleeves.

Women’s wear is incredibly diverse. Many choose to keep their shift as their only layer. Others wear looses gowns in multiple different styles. These are meant to emanate softness, gentle and full in their design. Embroidery is extremely prevalent especially around the bust area. Women may also wear a light colored shirt and pair of pants. These are as full as men’s wear and as elaborately decorated as the dresses. Robes may be worn over all clothing when cold. Older women prefer robes as overwear in any weather.

In recent years, sleepwear trends have changed. Shifts have been abandoned, but undergarments stay relatively the same. Outerwear has morphed from elegant practicality to utter ridiculousnesses. The youth now sleep in garments that emulate different animals. These can be compared to the human garment onesies. Even the youth in titled households have adopted this crude trend.

Loungewear is worn on leisure days at home. The only people unrelated to a person that will see them in this dress are extremely close friends. Leisurewear is entirely modeled after functionality and freedom of movement. Domestic tasks like cooking are easily accomplished. This is considered mid level formality for form (2) dress.

1 a garment that provides back support

2 a type of dress which seeks to at most softly emphasize the body

A Cruel Master

Lord Dorian was a cruel master. That was the fact that dominated the lives of the gnomes that worked on his estate. They lived by strict rules. Breaking them meant severe consequences, ones some of them never recovered from. Randa knew these rules and kept to them dutifully. She bowed her head down and kept to herself. She somehow still managed to catch the eye of the lord. He seemed to take a certain joy in tormenting her. Any project she worked on would be deemed a disaster, and she would have to redo it. He covered her body in nail shaped cuts.He had even gotten his children to throw rocks at her when she passed them. He played this game for years, Randa stubbornly refusing to break. She took a deep breath and remembered the words of the elders, whenever an act of harassment occurred. The lord only seemed tempted by her cool demeanor. They continued this dance for years, each one leaving Randa more miserable. It got so bad, Randa could barely make it back to her hut without collapsing from pure agony. Yet steadfast she remained. She would take refuge in the temple dedicated to the elders, begging for guidance. The ancestors remained silent, which distressed poor Randa greatly. She had decided that meant she would have to endure this cruelty. Every day, she told herself she would have to endure just one more day of it. This stopped working, eventually she started thinking of how many days she would go through. One day, she snapped. She demanded he give her a reason he had a right to touch her . Lord Dorian didn’t like that one bit. He grabbed her by the arm, and dragged her outside. He was determined to make an example out of her. Her body was repeatedly slammed against the stone path, and her screams rang out into the woods. The other gnomes gathered around, unable to take their eyes off the horrific scene. This continued for some time, and when Lord Dorian’s rage was quelled Randa just lay there, groaning in pain. A gnome carried her into a healer’s hut. The healer said there was nothing they could do to help her. The gnome took her to the temple, making sure she got a blessing before shifting. They laid her down to rest near a river. They didn’t return until a few days later, fearing the master’s rage. In the place of the battered girl, a graceful willow stood

I was told you might have information about a kotlc tumblr discord server? Also I really like the name Quil it's very neat.

Thank you! I, obviously, also quite like the name!

And I do have information about kotlc discord servers, five of them to be exact. These aren’t in any particular order, but join and engage at your leisure!

Kotlc Chaos: a casual server of about a hundred people who just enjoy hanging out and share an interest in keeper. a lot of the talk there isn’t keeper related, but it’s still a keeper server. very tumblr-esque

keeper of the lost cities: the smallest group, only a couple dozen basically the people you see in the tumblr kotlc tag on a regular basis (prior to Stellarlune at least, there are new people in the tag now)

KOTLC group chat: a casual group of a couple hundred. It’s composed of fans who’ve been around for a while, though they may not be as active anymore. It feels like a previous generation of the fandom sometimes.

KotLC Chats: this is the biggest one (couple thousand) and is connected to the kotlc wiki, not the tumblr, but it’s worth mentioning. It tends to have younger people and much stricter rules

For the sake of full transparency, of the discords I’m aware of there is a fifth called the kotlcopedia, which is a discord dedicated to creating and compiling keeper headcanons. However, it is maintained and orchestrated by someone who was at the center of some discourse recently. I will not, at this time, be sharing that link on my blog, as I’m still deciding the extent my personal response and am still talking about it privately. There is an associated blog on tumblr by the same name, and I’m sure if you want more information you can reach out there. I just won’t be providing it here.

I hope that helps! I can’t tell you exactly how active all of these servers are (obviously though the one with several thousand people is most active) because I don’t engage with them much, but I hope you find one or several you like!
