UPDATED!!! Official Roleplay studio (semi-active): https://scratch.mit.edu/studios/27155425/ Space to see different options 1. feminine 2. neutral/masculine > What are Saberbats? Saberbats are an original species created by @ApocalypseGirl101 ! They are a hybrid species of Dragons, and Sabertooth Tigers. It's open, but before you can roleplay with them, I have to accept the design. > Features! - Saberbats have soul gems (the gem between the wings) on their throat that contains their magical essence! When these are broken, their soul is damaged and it can kill them. As a result, collars are worn to protect the gems. - Saberbats come in all aesthetics, powers, shapes and sizes. - Saberbats live in a Kingdom called Saberia, in a clan called the Tigris Clan. The Tigris Clan is a constitutional monarchy, ruled by a Queen and her Council. - Saberia is split into factions - the ocean faction, the beach faction, the mountain/wind faction, the forest faction, and the desert faction. They are all designed to help suit different elemental types, and have all sorts of residents and cultures! The last faction is Central, which is in the middle of Saberia, hence the name, and contains the Castle, the Royal Knight Academy, and hosts large festivals for each holiday every year. It's more urban, and often quite chaotic. > Saberbat Lore Long ago, two tribes met in the Dragonsong mountains, one of sabertooth tigers and one of dragons. The two tribes fought over the land, for thirteen moons, until the leaders dropped dead. Their son and daughter, stricken with grief, declared a truce,deciding to share the land from that point forwards. They hosted a sort of Olympic games every 13 months to celebrate their peace. One year, the Tiger Princess, Tanya, was to compete in the sprinting race. When watching her, the dragon prince Farren, found himself falling in love. They soon married, and had kids, uniting the clans and creating a new race of beings. Two thousand years later, tragedy struck again as the mountains became colder due to a changing environment. The famine struck, and a corrupt king and failing government turned the country into ruin. However, a alliance rose up, led by a young bat named Anastasia Tigris. She fought and defeated the King, claiming the throne and leading the bats in a march for new land. This is known as the winter march, and is celebrated as the shift to the new kingdom. A book is currently being written in more depth about the history of Saberbats, called Anastasia's Rule. Holidays: - Midsommar - a mid-summer festival celebrating monsoon season and the harvest. Foxnadoes come to bring a storm, and dancing, face painting, coloured bubble blowing, trading baked goods, flower weaving and music making are all traditions. - Chrysglamadanse - 'day of crystal glass'. It celebrates the peak of winter, the awaiting spring, and a time of gift giving and joy - Ice Age March - For the week at the end of the 13th month on the Dragonic calendar, the Royal Guard, led by the Queen marches through the streets of central in the morning, making a journey to visit the old castle in the Dragonsong Mountains and pay respects to their ancestors and Anastasia's journey. During this time, citizens stand in silence on the edge of the streets, as a way of showing their respect to the journey made. - New Hope Day Festival - on the day of return from their journey, a festival is held, celebrating the original festival, and the start of a new year. Competitions are held, fireworks are set off, and it's a general celebration of light, and warmth, that runs long into the night.
