Backstory
Where the ocean kisses the stars, beneath the floating lights of Shardmere’s tidepools, drifts the Moonshield Sentinel—a Cancer Dragon born from the reflection of the moon upon water. Cloaked in scales that shimmer purple, green, and blue, it moves like a dream, unseen until it chooses to appear. Its horns are crescent-shaped, glowing faintly with lunar energy, and its shell-like armor hums softly when danger approaches.
The Moonshield Sentinel is a protector not of kingdoms, but of hearts. It senses unspoken worries, the quiet tremor of doubt, and shields those it loves beneath a veil of moonlit calm. Though it prefers solitude and the rhythm of the tide, it emerges when loyalty is tested, wrapping its wings around those who need its strength. Many a traveler has mistaken its glow for starlight—until the starlight blinked back.
