A Glyphon: is a form of Gryphon that has a great attachment to the written language, in particular the human written language.
Prehistoric Glyphons had forked tails that could chip rock into glyphs, There name stems from this. These highly intelligent mutations of the gryphons seam to have evolved over time, the brush like tail of today's Glyphons is due to the introduction of paper and ink. A legend among Glyphons of how they adapted is interesting but unproven.
The tale relates an unfortunate accident where a glyphon smashed his tail under a stone he was carving, shameful of his now fuzzy disfigured tail he flew east. Upon landing in a land untouched by glyphons he learned of the local form of using ink on rice paper to write glyphs, languages and symbols. His new tail was perfect for that so he learned. And once he was fully redeemed returned to teach his fellow glyphons of his new talent.

So where are they now?
Well dose your local librarian seem way to interested in her books? Is your teacher always looking in some book or another? Glyphons have adapted a type of defense that makes them appear human to most humans. They literally have an illusion of humanity and so we ignore or mistake there true identity. To those who know what to look for we can see there true form but keep it a secret, its for there own good.

Glyphons Go through three main stages in there growth, as they do they learn and develop a human illusion image of them self, thus blending in with the majority human population.


User Image
The first stage is an egg, They can't escape there roots no matter how hard they immediate humans, this stage lasts a short while no more than three weeks.


User Image
This important second stage is when a Glyphon starts to gain some knowledge, there drawn towards books and words. What human language they learn in the Glyphlet stage is now depends on you! Also this is when they learn to produce an illusion!


User Image
Finlay your glyphon has become an adult! They have a rank by now and have blended in with the humans around them very well, They are smart, funny, but most of all LOVE a good book! There illusion self is far more advanced too.

User Image
??? That is this! Yes there is yet another stage but only RPers will reach this or those who win the opportunity to grow the glyphon further. These are Alphas and in the glyphon society they are the smartest, Most powerful, and most intelligent. There also clan leaders. These have customized personal illusions.


Heads!
Hair styles differ but basicly you have two human stages, Child & Adult. The hair tends to relate to there fur colour, a bit of a habit with glyphons. The hair styles are not all shown here, your style will be random.

~Language~


Glyphons Learn to adapt as they grow, the first thing they learn are languages. Glyphons have there own language that is universal, in small groups they may chat in his strange language, if no humans are present. But in most cases glyphons with the same human languages tend to stick together, they will chat in that language looking quite human to other humans.
~note, Glyphons only learn languages when thay hatch, thay can't read as eggs. Send there chosen language when thay hatch to Dragoil ~

Bi-lingual / Multi-lingual

Some glyphons learn many languages, this can happen as they grow, usually no more than six are learned but elders have been know to be bi-lingual in most cases.

Choosing an language

When choosing a language for your glyphon, go with any you know or like. A list of current languages will be below but that is just a guideline. I only warn against dead or fictional languages as this will hamper your glyphon socially.

~Current languages~

- English
- Italian
- German
- Greek
- French
- Spanish
- Russian
- Chinese
- Japanese

_____________________________________________________________

~Rank~


Glyphons each eventually grow into a social role in there human environment, they blend with us to survive. And yet they chose to stay as close to there books and scrolls as they can so a social role that reads a lot is usually taken. These are for adults and elders only.

Choosing a Rank

You ca chose from this this your gliphons chosen rank, this feature is only chosen at there adult stage.


~Scholar - A glyphon more into broad studies, history lover.

~Scribe - A reader and a writer, tend to be more secluded.

~Librarian - A lover of books, custodians of knowledge and tend to be very social to other glyphons.

~Teacher - a Glyphon into the current studies of humans, loves children.

~Magician - Ah! A powerful glyphon, very high on magical studies. But less social, has less grip on the mind of humans.

~Secretary - the business minded glyphon, has a hand and paw in on the monetary life of humans, also likes to control humans.


If your glyphon reaches a higher stage of life, basically that yours is RPed to Elder status, they can chose from these more advanced ranks:


~Professor - Your Glyphon has reached a degree in his studies, he is highly thought of among scholars.

~Scribe - A reader and a writer, tend to be more secluded.

~Head Librarian - Leader of Librarians, organizes meetings among gliphons.

~Head master - Runs the school and organizes teachers, very efficient and also loves children.

~Sorcerer - A cut above magician, most Glyphons and humans avoid them, but there magic is unrivaled!

~Executive - A very controlling rich glyphon, they have it all, gold a successful business, there loathe to change change though, not as social glyphon wise.

Glyphons marry for life, just like the humans thay try to portray. As such when a marrage happens there is a fee for the wedding then the married couple get a honeymoon on our tropical island. This is super secret and private, its the only place illusions are taken off in public.

Glyphons have 1-2eggs at a time and only return with kids but once married can come back for second/ third /fourth honeymoons at any time.. for a fee and if seats are open on the flight.

The perents owners can chose where the kids grow up but there language is the same as there perents to start.

Innital marrage fee: 7k

Subsiquent flights: 3k

Dragoil likes long creepy walks in a dark park, red, dark evil pets and well generaly anything cust, fluffy and evil. She is the concept artists here, shop owner & cert designer, bow befor her, muahahah.

Pet Trades? Well heck ya, this is how I get most of my pets ^^ and theres a lot out there that I still wan't. On the same note don't expect me to accept every offered pet. I have a wish list in my sig for instant accepties.
Bribes? Well now...as long as its within the rules I'll take one twisted Big request.. needs a big bribe.
Customs? Well now.. I like chalanges, I do cos-plays but don't expect me to do tons!
PMs? You can PM me BUT please say in the PM that your inquireing about Gliphons spacificly. Otherwise I may ignore you.


[ Natty-Chan ]


Pet Trades? Yep yep. I'm not really picky either, just send me a PM and we'll discuss things. But please, don't take any offense if I reject it, it's not because I don't like your art, it might just be because I don't have the time or I would rather have gold/items at the time being.
Bribes? I take bribes, and I'm easily bribable. Just be warned, I'm not the greatest line art editor, so cosplays or anything with a lot of edits will be a bit pricey.
Customs? I can do customs, just like I said with bribes, I'm not too good with cosplays and major line art edits.
PMs? Yesh, those are fine. Just make sure to distinguish them between Glyphon related and misc.


Jazzniko
