"I will guide you through the night, traveller."
Nightwatch | Photophobic | Quiet

The nocturne, Tannod, from a young age, was known to have an issue with sunlight. She was hatched in the cool darkness of the night, deep within the Shrieking Wilds, and so the issue was not known until she had awoken the next morning.

Photophobia they called it. Tannod quickly had to learn how to adjust to a nocturnal lifestyle, when many of her birth-clanmates would be active moreso during the day. It caused something of a rift between her and others. This rift only encouraged a certain type of frustration from her as she combated her inner curiosity about the other individuals around her. Yes, certain dragon breeds were more nocturnal, but this just separated her still from a good portion of clan life.

She took to cloaking herself so that she would be able to blend in more with the dark forests of Nature's nocturnal realm. Tannod also upon her coming-of-age was given a dim lantern that would not offend her eyes, so that she may begin to at least be able to see slightly better at night. Or to possibly lead others to her, considering the weak night-vision of many other dragons.

Tannod traveled to the nearby Gladeveins one night as she heard some individuals crying out in confusion deep in the forests. Cautious, she was able to find the younger dragons and ask them what had happened. They claimed they lost their way traveling back to their clan's main tree. Tannod offered perhaps that with her sensitive eyes and lantern she could help guide them back, if they were able to give her some amount of direction.
After the small group safely arrived back at that clan's tree, the Nature clan asked her if she might stay with them as a Nightguard. Considering the Nocturne's quiet demeanor and watchful attitude, she seemed like a perfect fit. Tannod warned them of her photosensitivity, but the clan quickly offered to build her a dwelling so that in the daytime her eyes would not be harmed. Tannod is known to still be somewhat rough towards others, considering her abrupt entry into the clan, but she is dealing better with mitigating her frustrations towards her forced nocturnal lifestyle.
