Storm Archons (SD)

"We are the children of the storms-- we are one with the storms and its fury."
==Description==
Figures of interesting and seemingly oblivious nature. They are the descendants of the storms themselves-- they flock wherever the clouds guide them to. Thye use the scars of the lightning strikes asconduits to and from the surface world, almost like portals to and from the clouds.
==History==
In the rise of Agnoth's reign, the Archons were the guardians of the Outlands-- forbidden landscapes that prevented the outside creatures from breaching to the inner worlds and also kept some of the insiders away from the outside influences. They were sentient and also very brash, as their lord was. They were guided by the heart war, but they also knew how to control their outbreaks.
==Important Settlements==
The archons have colonized in the City of Clouds, Atnitine.
==Society==
The storm archons live in small clusters, always keeping check on each individual and checking that their conduitivity is intact. This is their ability to cross between the clouds and the surface world. Without it, they are either stranded in the chaos of the storms or caught in the wilderness of the surface world. Conduitivity decides one's status within their society. Those with high conduitivity are the leaders of their groups and mentors for the younger scholars.
Sometimes, conduitivity is lost by an stripping it from individuals who have commited terrible acts or have rebelled against the ideals of the society. Sometimes, even the highest ranking may lose their conduitivity by falling victim to corruption.
The archons have learned to study the surface world below-- the stormclouds serve as observation points for them to track changes and study patterns for the Templars (loremasters) to transform into vast maps of massive detail.
They will never take slavery as a way of life and will always accept visitors with kind dispositions. Those who exemplify any sort of malicious or threatening dispositions or who went against their ideals are considered enemies to the Archon's society.
===Guardians===
The Guardian Archons are powerful, sentient figures who exemplify their devotion to their people and offer protection against the force that would undo their nature. They work in sync with the people and the storms to defend the archons from collapse and corruption.
===Templars===
The Templar Archons (or Loremasters) are the keepers of the knowledge of the world at large-- they create vital maps of the world to track changes and calculate patterns in the balance of the world. They keep a vast library of this knowledge hidden away so that only those who are willing to discover the great webs of the world can see change before their eyes.
