Northwind is a recent, small clan consisting of the relatives of Elder Guardian Nivalis.
History
⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻
Northwind was founded in 2956 by Nivalis upon his achievement of Guardianhood. While Nivalis did not have his own children nor could have, he claimed his right to clanhood for the benefit of his siblings and their descendants.
Clan Trait
⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻
Northwind is recognized by several features. They are largely a monochrome greyscale or a desaturated blue, and have stripe and 'snowfall' markings. Their most recognizeable trait is how a small part of their body is much darker than the rest. This can either be the head or tail tip, or the paws and top of the wing. This darkening can be gradual or a hard cut-off like that of the founder, Nivalis. Markings that follow the rest of the body will still be visible beneath the darkening. Northwind dragons are thus said to have a 'permanent shadow' on parts of their bodies. Sometimes brighter markings will poke through the shadow as if they glow. Some members lack the 'shadow' due to the clan not being selective based on trait.
Elements
⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻
Northwind is primarily ice, but one fourth of its members are wind due to a wind dragon unifying with the Patriarch. The variants in Northwind are white and blue ice, and grey and tinted (blue) wind. There are no other current element impurities.

Trade
⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻
Much of Northwind follows the path of Nivalis, who was a Guard before becoming a Guardian. During obligatory service, members will aim for selection into the Guard, and due to their clanhood and association to Nivalis, most pass selection. A few members choose the Army instead, mostly descendants of the brother that remained in the Army. Half the clan remain in the Guard, while others seek different careers after mandatory service.
Reproduction and Eggs
⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻
Northwind accepts both romantic and contract unions/reproduction, but encourages a limit to ice and wind, with emphasis on ice. They also seek to not introduce further variants into their bloodline.
