The Petrova family has been around since the early 1500's, however, it's said that the true beginning of this line was in Mikhael Petrova, the Great-Great Grandfather of Antony. Mikhael took the family in a direction that led to an enormous amount of wealth and growth, opening and operating one of the first Dragon Sanctuaries in the world. Priyut Drakonov (The Haven of Dragons) was built in 1840, funded by a collective monetary account from the entire family. It was the pride of the Petrova lineage, and had one goal. Breed, care for, and bond with dragons. The idea of riding them as though they were members of their own family was always in the background of their ideology, but it was a far fetched ideal that seemed impossible. It wasn't until Antony's father Aleksi decided to try and harness this ideal more ferociously, that it eventually became a reality. Aleksi would not see the first dragon riders, but his son Antony did.
After decades of trying to crack the codes of how to get a dragon to trust someone enough to be mounted, success was made with his eldest daughter and middle son. Raised since birth and egg, the siblings and their dragons were never separated and as a result grew a deeper bond than any imagined. Now, they're considered successful dragon riders. The first of their kind, to the knowledge of the Petrova family. They have begun replicating this model with their grandchildren in hopes of creating more dragon riders. At first, the ideal is that this creates a deeper bonding and understanding with the creatures, however, some in the family believe it could be a means to authority and power.
All Members listed below, children included, are up for grabs. Not listed in detail are Antony's four siblings and their children. They are also up for grabs if someone wants to make a cousin or sibling. There are no big specifics for those lines. For the most part, the Petrova's are Durmstrang Alumni or Students, however, Hogwarts has been known to slide in as well as Beauxbatons. However, Hogwarts is more common for them to attend than the latter. Face claims are fluid, names can be negotiated, I just want to keep them more on the Slavic side, as the Petrova family is primarily Russian and Norwegian.
