I would love to participate, AT, but I do not feel I have a strong enough grasp on your drakengrad area and Valon to be a productive member. I wish you the best of luck though. From the little I've seen of Marius, it seems like a very interesting location with a very cool character.

Oh, uh, none of the Drakengrad denizens are regular humans?
Hnrrgh... Pohatu angel is saying "Yes, Pohatu! Make a Draken or an Aldra-Sa! Add a devious back-room arbitrator at the court! That would be so much fun!" while Pohatu devil is saying "You would look silly trying to write a character with dragon blood or whatever. You don't even like dragons! Forget it!"
Um... Could you elaborate on what the difference is between Draken and Aldra-Sa? You know, for academic purposes. I just looked and I don't think you've ever spelled it out.

Literally, there are very few people that know anything about Drakengrad. The only parts of Drakengrad seen in RP is a set of Valon's private chambers and once a small plain. As for Valon, he's more or less going to be a starting/ending point for the topic and there will be very little that you'd have to know about him.
If you want in, we'll make it work.

I'll see what I can set up without spoiling things that will come up later.
Aldra-Sa are basically living light made flesh that form strong empathic bonds with animals. A result of their creation leaves the Aldra-Sa with powerful Auras that are manifestations of their life energy that allows the use of silver magic. Granted, not all Sa have the ability to use magics as their auras aren't powerful enough, limiting the use of magics to only the most powerful Sa.
Drakens are basically a breed of drakenoid that tend to be 6 to 9 feet tall in various colors. They can be winged or non-winged with an average level of intelligence and the predisposition to be warriors or shaman, field work is beyond them with their large frames. A few Draken have been able to awaken their own versions of the Aura and have learned silver magics, but most of them are bound to the order of the Silver Shaman.
The Aldra-Sa are bound to the Draken by an ancient bond of friendship and interdependency. Each makes up for the others weaknesses and in teaming up with one another they have thrived for eons.

Oh, thanks for the outline. Well, that's okay, if this isn't actually going to be about machinations inside the court then I'm not missing out by failing to create a Drakengrad character. I'll just join with somebody familiar.
Now, which of my characters already know Valon...?
...
Oh, no.
Not that one.
No, no, no.
Please
Anything but
HIM

I'm sure you have someone who knows HIM that could have been told about Valon in some form.
I also could easily have Valon pick existing people for a skill rather than on relation.

I'm actually wondering about Esther Damrosch, the girl who shows up toward the end of Crystal 2. We could conceivably write her meeting Valon/Marius there, and I had also brought her up as a great possibility for a teaching assistant at Terminer where she might brush shoulders with Marius, so that's two potential ties to Drakengrad.
However, she's a college-aged girl who does some wonky stuff with words to produce onetime magic effects. I don't know that that's particularly interesting for Valon, or for a noncombat topic.

That would actually work really well with what I've got planned.

shit, it's almost tempting to bring back Nadeshi for this one. I know I said 'no fantasy' but half-dragon dudes are kind of cool ok

She pulled out a faded photo from an ornate jewelry box and placed it on the table. “Ruhenga Fyhtanan. Disappeared 22 years ago, under mysterious circumstances.”
