Welcome to the world of Draco Stryx! This is a very open-ended world, and is more or less a fantasy version of the Earth we all know. Draco Stryx are used as dragon mounts for people all over the world, from all kinds of cultures and countries, and all kinds of geographic origin. The time period is also loose, but is primarily based in a Viking/Celtic/Medieval type of setting, where people are wearing leather, furs, feathers, and are fashioning metal armor and weapons. However, you don't need to feel limited by this! You're encouraged to play in whatever way you like best, regardless of time period or other factors. So if the official premis

Draco Stryx is the general name of the species, roughly translated to "Silent Predator." Types: AVIANS Flighted bird-like Stryx. MAMMALS Flighted bat-like Stryx. GROUND Flightless ground-based Stryx. DIVER Water-based Stryx. MICROSTRYX Small cousins of Stryx, who serve as companions.

Monogamy, however, is not uncommon, when two mates are well suited and feel no compulsion to seek out another. Domesticated Stryx, unless allowed to pair-bond by their ride

Base Coat Colors Base Coat Colors The base coat is something that every stryx has, and also has its color determined by various combinations of the Ee gene, the Aa gene, and the Ss gene.

It is classed as a mutation due to its overall effect on markings. Leucism* Leucism is a passable mutation that dilutes the coat and markings. It has a chance of cropping up randomly in breedings with the Snow gene present. Free Markings These do not actually show in the genotype. Th

Before a stryx is permitted to breed, it must prove its merit by completing three sacred rights, the Tributes to the gods of Wyvera, Father Daius, Mother Nokt and the great star god, Galyx! Only then will they receive the Eye of Galyx, the symbol of their worthiness to mate and bear children. General Rules At maximum, you may have up to 3 Stryx in the entries receiving their Eye of Galyx. However, you can have less than 3 if you wish. Additional stryxes past 3 may be included, but they will not receive their Eye of Galyx and should be marked in the work's description as not receiving the Eye of Galyx. Tributes require a Witness, either a r
