== History ==
*This is a rough work in progress!
*Hatched to a pair of low-born con artists in Petiole with an older sister, Myrtle
*Her parents falsified fortune tellings and performed leafspeak-based hypnotism
*Learned at a young age that she had been blessed with powerful leafspeak
*Assisted her parents in their work frequently to advance her leafspeak, but was growing restless living with them
*As a teenager, she left home to travel Pyrrhia and Pantala, learning about other cultures and getting hands-on experience
*She was particularly interested by NightWing prophets and spent a few years in Englass studying
*Growing older and bored, Sylph returned to Pantala and took an interest in old PoisonWing scripture, becoming infatuated with the idea of taking back Pantala from the growing industrialization and colonization by Pyrrhians 
*Started to consider the idea of using leafspeak to gain power
*She began to get involved in obscure and extremist PoisonWing circles
*After gaining significant influence amongst those who shared her beliefs, Sylph formulated a new political-religious group located in the Poison Jungle which she called "the Beekeepers", an obvious jab at the Hives
*With her charismatic persona and appealing messages advocating for environmentalism, the Keepers drew in many young political activists who were in Pantala to contribute to the Pantalan Fauna Restoration Project
*When the Keepers began to get into trouble with authorities, they were forced to move westward, settling near the Restoration Project itself in a small bohemian encampment Sylph called the Garden
*Throughout the years, the Keepers became more isolated and Sylph discriminated against non-LeafWings, and eventually LeafWings who lacked leafspeak
*Using a mix of leafspeak-based hypnotism, isolation tactics, and specific targeting, Sylph and her closest cohorts indoctrinated leafspeakers into believing that they were the purest of LeafWings, and that it was not natural for most LeafWings to lack powers
*As the cult grew and strengthened into a family, Sylph rallied the members to attack the Hives and various other Pantalan cities using phyto-warfare, engineering "plant bombs" which were small bundles of seeds that a dragon with powerful leafspeak could “explode” into massive tangles of vines and poisonous or predatory plants
*The Keepers began to selectively breed to ensure that each dragonet born into the cult would have a high chance of having leafspeak
*Dragonets who did not manifest their leafspeak by age 4 were banished to ensure that the Keepers remained leafspeak-exclusive
*By present day, the Keepers pose a significant threat to the growing Pantalan society, specifically targeting Pyrrhians attempting to colonize, and ultimately aiming to quash the roots of industrialism rising on the continent
