#fr light

abolusely wild how much every Light species in FR kicks ass. I mean i'm extremely biased but imho most other flights (especially those with three species, the two-species flights avoid this for the most part) have at least one species that's like. a solid 6/10 on the interest scale. But every light species is just banger after banger. Everlux are so fun (little librarians!) & being newer have a ton of lore in the encyclopedia compared to most species & have one of the most creative and out-there visual designs on the site. Pearlcatchers have such a fun gimmick that lends so much room for character development and worldbuilding both on a physiological and social level--before i got into FR i saw a post about pearlless pearlcatchers that i've been trying to find since because it was so interesting. and Imperials.... ough.... doj't get me STARTED on Imperials. now this is a species with flavor. now THIS is a species with SPICE. they were created with necromancy. they're unstable necromantic constructs that can live only a decade or into their hundreds because of the volatile nature of their creation. they turn into giant fucked up shambling amalgamations of multiple dragons when they die. their entire culture is based around the fear of turning into an Emperor upon death and they refuse to live in large groups or stay near their dead. Their own creator deity forced them out of their original home because she was scared of what she'd done. They resent pearlcatchers because they think the Lightweaver's replaced them.
