i’m sure most of you are familiar with the runes from runestones of the arcanist, particularly the non flight runes. I find them really interesting and like to believe that they represent coalitions between two flights… P:
I’m also in love with the idea of dragons inheriting heterochromia because they are so devoted to multiple deities. they could also be born with it too, if both their parents are from different flights. I’d wager they would be the most likely to attempt to start coalitions between flights. Being loyal to two must be a unique experience of the world.
A lot of dragons only have one eye visible so this is not something that could be implemented in-game but we can imagine. You can only see one eye after all, who’s to say the other isn’t a different color… Checkmate
other coalitions could be:
light + shadow = chaos fire + earth = metal nature + water = life lightning + wind = spiral
i’ve been thinking about this post a lot since the new eye types came out, wondering how to incorporate them – and now i kind of like to believe that these heterochromatic dragons were successful with forming coalitions between flights, and that some of the new eye types we are a result of that
say for example dragons from both plague and nature came together and formed their own lesser flight where they worshipped the gladekeeper and the plaguebringer. as time passed and their devotion deepened, their offspring’s eyes began to take on their own, unique color. instead of pure nature or pure plague, instead of the occasional heterochromatic child, their eyes slowly took on a new collective color to represent their loyalty to both deities. to show the world that they are part of the ‘Venom’ flight.
of course you could also just believe these flights exist out there with their own deities, unrelated to the current flights. whatever tickles your peach. so far these are some of the new eye colors that i personally associate with these ‘lesser’ flights.
