Focus

“Stillness brings clarity, study reveals knowledge. Focus leads to understanding - to act without it invites chaos.”

— Glen Lakin on Bluesky^[1]

Focus is a form of dragon energy and one of the seven Sources, personified by the Source Dragon of Focus. It is opposed to Chaos and associated with a multitude of colors but mostly white, purple, and tan/yellow.

Trivia

Trivia[]

When asked, "Does Firstbourne possesses Lloyd's element and/or Focus?", Chris "Doc" Wyatt replied with "Sort of". However, it is possible that his answer concerned only the Element part.^[10]
When revealing the Elemental Powers coming from the source of Focus, Glen Lakin used these poetic descriptions:
- Ice - Still and clear, an agent of stasis. To freeze a moment or shape itself to a piercing point.^[4]
- Mind - The mind is a maze to be navigated. To control thought is to control action.^[5]
- Reflex - The ability to observe the world around you and move about it as if choreographed, action and reaction in a single moment.^[6]
- Figment - What you see is not always what you get. Figment can focus the mind’s eye on an idea rather than reality.^[7]
- Technology - To understand the workings of the universe is to bend it to your will. Invention is the reimagining of the natural order.^[8]
