Shadow / Illusion/ Explosion 
Assassin's Shroud

Your father, a kind if troubled man, whose undying love for family outweighed any legacies or duties beholden. Descended from the Vanreth name, a line of cursed individuals such as witches and lichs, and unusually Aquila evaded that fate. From a start, he and your mother ensured that you were cared for and put above all else. Showering you all with gifts or grand tales from the past, along with frequent excursions to visit your-... peculiar grandparents, with some others he’s learned to call family over the years, there wasn’t any shortage of love.
Raised betwixt several homes due to personal struggles, it didn’t leave much room to attach to any particular nation nor belief. Your father had a bad tendency of suppressing or concealing his personal brand of belief, to encourage you all to adhere to your own destined path. 
Occasionally, there might be an air of dread in his presence, along with ominous disembodied voices. Fortunately, your mother ensured that none of you were around the troubled man during these brief episodes.
There were assurances that in due time, you’d learn further about your lineage and the dreaded curse.

Lion Fire Barrage

Your mother, a determined woman with a heart large enough for all of her children and her ideals. Descendant of the Vartuul family, a line of stalwart Dragonlords and Denmothers/fathers that caused the coat to thrive for generation, and aside from you all, essentially the last of her lineage. A fact that she openly laments.


As caring and loving as your father, they’d both do their damndest to ensure that you’re all spoiled and educated. With your mother, especially involving the draconic Divine whom she openly and devoutly worships, in contrast to the Naysien worship that has dominated the family for two generations, Naught a word was spoken of the black dragon. Fiercely ambitious, and dedicated to restoring the familial name and legacy. Free as you are to follow your paths, it is undoubtable that she’d encourage this.


Fiery, and her magical affinities  are clearly evident as such. Wielding flame tinged with occult, to a devastating effect. Something that she might be willing to pass down unto you, along with a reputation as an extremely skilled artificer with Vartuul relics in her possession to pass on, if worthy. Her love is only matched by her yearning to see the Vartuul name reignite.
