Sky Breakers, a name given to those whom have conquered the Scion and live within the realm of clouds, effectively, having broken through the sky. A lot of about the Sky Breakers is shrouded in mystery as only fragments of fact are shared by the few who ever reach their fabled home and the fewest who ever return from the comfortable paradise. What we can say is that they greatly resemble humans in a way, sharing almost all characteristics apart from their winged appendages and feathers. The Sky Breakers all share winged ears, feathery, bird like wings. They often have feathers growing on their arms which are more than likely left over from evolution. Sky Breakers can fly temporarily with these wings, although it is exhausting, so they prefer to use them to slow descents or leap higher and longer distances, a sort of glide. Sky Breakers also have far paler skin, bordering on white and a bigger lung and heart capacity than normal, to deal with the thinner oxygen of the way-up-highs and its pressure.
The Sky Breakers acknowledge the presence of the land beneath the Scion, as well as the living races across it, though rarely visit. They are not ignorant and, infact, welcome outsiders to their gilded realm, if they can conquer the Hyjinx infested forest of Keskewn Jarden and the pillar of the Scion and its Sky Plateaus…by walking. Outsiders that do this and reach their beloved kingdom, are welcomed with open arms, for having accomplished a formidable feat…and rarely do we ever see any of these people return. From those that do return, we know of their culture and some of their lives. They treasure art and creativity, with murals across many of their buildings and in particular their transport, the Sky Sails. The kingdom of theirs runs under a monarchy of the Venessas. The Venessas, are all born with unique butterfly winged appendages as opposed to feathers wings and all females born of this bloodline have a special and inherit gift. The Sky Breakers adore their queen…more than their own lives.
