In the Tribe, there are Grifix with animal names and grifix with plant names... but what about names of unliving things? Why is Soleila named... Soleila (meaning Sun)?

 

Well the answer to that is... there are grifix with names of unliving things, but they are neither Warriors or Healers! But they are all part of one ancient family, the Starfell Clan. But the story of this family is quite a complicate one and it will take us into some older questions about the Grifix, such as incest.

 

To begin with, the grifix from the Starfell Clan can only marry grifix from the Starfell Clan. Practically, incest. So now... how did this last for almost 2000 years? Why are they still... living and mostly healthy? Well as you might know, the Grifix breed through magic. They also live naturally in very small communities so incest doesn’t affect them as much. But still, they don’t practice it with their close relatives. It’s weird and they wouldn’t usually do it. So in conclusion to that, the Grifix are not affected by incest but it’s still mostly prohibited for them, out of moral matters.

 

Going back to our main subject, WHAT is the Starfell Clan?

 

They are an ancient family descending directly from The Butterfly First Warrior, Bluebell. They take pride in their pure blood and only breed with other Clan grifix. In the Tribe hierarchy, they would be under the healers but their blood legacy earns them a lot of respect. Even though they are neither warriors or healers, they do have a purpose and that is providing pure blood queens and serving the royals. Whenever a new king steps up, they will marry a female from the Starfell Clan, which has been raised especially for that. The other young females of the Clan become servants for the Queen and the Priestess. The Clan is so conservative, as they never show their face in front of a grifix from outside the Clan, excepting the Priestess. If someone else were to see their face, most of the Clan grifix would feel threatened and panic.

 

But what did the thousands years of incest do to this family? Well one effect is that they are usually more ill than other grifix and their immunity is not very strong. But there is one other effect, which only rarely pops up at the Clan grifix. Sometimes, a grifix is born with a special ability: seeing sphirix. It’s a rare ability but they never know how the tribe would react to it. Some grifix with this ability have been killed by the other grifix, some punished by the First Warriors for having too much power, while others learned to use this ability and rise through the Tribe hierarchy by pleasing the First Warriors. Most of them however... keep it a secret even to fellow Clan grifix.

 

Their symbol is the crowned eye, a symbol which is only worn by royalty in the Tribe.

You can see that the King, Queen and Yantarka have this sign on their mask

But what if a Clan grifix falls in love with a grifix who is not from the Clan?

Then they can choose to leave the Clan. They lose their legacy and become a warrior or a healer. They can still keep the crowned eye on their masks or outfits, and even their children can have it.

 

Unlike other parts of the hierarchy, they do not have a specific outfit, but they always wear something. You can take as example Rust:

That is pretty much all the info. Wanna make a grifix part of the Starfell Clan? That’s okay but keep in mind that the design and backstory will have to be approved by me, and if they’re not they’ll just become a warrior or healer. Unless you are a co-owner, it’s very unlikely that I will allow you to create one that has the ability to see the sphirix so don’t ask me about that.

The MYO is closed for now, but it’s very likely I will open it again at some point, so look forward to it!

 

That is all for today, see you soon with some other grifix lore updates!
