DRAGONFLIGHT [Dragon Roleplay; Sign-Up Thread]

Name:
Flenz

Gender:
Male

Age:
Young adult

Appearance:
A fairly young Dragon with little blackening on his body but more on his wings from volcanic ash. He has a darker stripe over his left shoulder from birth. Yellow-gold eyes contrast against the bright red features on his face. Small knobs are growing out of his head behind the eyes at a backwards angle where soon he will have horns. Blackened claws stick out of his dark red toes. A green paint stripe follows his tail from the tip to his shoulders were is splits and touches his wings, forming an arrow. His tail has one small boney-metal ball at the end of each tip. These balls are about the size of an orange and spark when they clack together.

Relationships:
He has a mother, father, two brothers and two sisters. He is part of the younger clutch with one of his brothers. His eldest sister was hatched alone and his other sister and brother hatched together. No SO.

Abilities:
He can generate a fiery coating over his entire body. He has multiple forms of flaming breath. He can use his hardened scales as a weapon and defensive measure.

Personality:
Flenz was damaged by his time in the military. He will actively avoid combat, even if he is more likely to win. He still remains kind-hearted and open to new people, trying to hide his past behind stories of his travels. Flenz dislikes his natural scary appearance, but admits that it has been helpful for him as a tool to deter those who might want to hurt or steal from him.

Strengths:
Flenz is a natural thinker. He is smart, clever, and enjoys putting his skills to use. He has the magical gift of his people to create items with raw materials, but does not yet know how to use it.

Weaknesses:
Even after his army time, he sees himself as a coward. He has low self-esteem and is emotionally vulnerable. He is sensitive to water and avoids it actively. His body heat can be uncomfortable to touch, especially when he has recently burned.

History:
He was born of two workers in the Fulhai society and lived an unremarkable childhood. He was drafted into the army at 16 and served his mandatory four years, achieving the rank of private second class. After his four years was up he faced a tough choice: Marry and have kids, rejoin the army or be banished for up to ten years to learn or get a mate. At the trial he was banished for only six years. He now roams the lands alone carrying goods to trade for a living.

Clan Affiliation: Fire

Rank: Generic Ex-Warrior

Name:
Fulhai

Plural:
Fulhai

Adult Age:
20

Life Expectancy:
130

Description:
The Fulhai are dragons who are born bright red, but turn black as they age from exposure to flames and ash. They are medium sized dragons, the average adult is the same size as a Humvee. Their tail splits one foot before the end creating a fork. Their wings are fixed on their back. There are certain harder scales along their body that are nearly as long as their forearms that they have control over. Almost every Fulhai has spikey horns on their face somewhere, but some have just horns.

The Fulhai claw is a natural manipulator, it has an opposable thumb.

Their body is covered in pores under the hardened scales that store and secrete highly flammable oils. Flames can't ignite them under normal circumstances because of the heat resistance of the Fulhai body. They have igniting mechanisms similar to those found in many dragons mouths that let them burn the oil on the outside of their bodies. These pores can react poorly with water however, releasing much of their oil contact if submerged or even in heavy rain.

Strengths:
They are able to create many different types of fire from their mouths like exploding balls or a liquid stream. Certain harder scales along the body can be raised as short spikes.

Weaknesses:
Very prone to the cold and will die if exposed to sub 10°c temperatures for too long. The hard scales have no other layers beneath them creating weak spots in their natural armour. Water is hazardous to get under the scales because it can react with the oil pores.

Notes:
The Fulhai are stuck in warfare within themselves after the monarchy broke up. Several noble tribes have been created along with many 'lone' packs who are known as savages. The noble tribes follow codes of honour and the elite view outsiders as lesser beings.

The noble tribes are notable for their use of magic to create and enchant armour. This skill is in many of the Fulhai, but the nobles are the ones who choose who is worthy of receiving the ancient knowledge and skills to do it for themselves. Some have learned the skill on their own, but nowhere near the degree of excellence that the ones trained properly have.

The Fulhai army has a mandatory 4 year draft for all dragons on their 16th birthday. They are forced to be a soldier for four years or risk permanent banishment from the Fulhai society, not just a clan, for life. The ones permanently banished from the Fulhai are marked with the removal of the small hard scales on their snout. This decision cannot be reversed.

After a Fulhai reaches 20 years of age, the end of mandatory service, they are forced to make a new decision. They must either continue to be a military serviceman, or mate and have kids. Those who choose neither are temporarily banished for up to ten years so that they can travel, learn, and mate before returning to the village.

The tribes longer war with each other as a rule, but savages wearing a tribe’s armour have escalated political conflicts before.

Name:
Chaa

Gender:
Female

Age:
Young adult

Appearance:
Chaa is a Kaian dragon, an ice species. Chaa is an average build. Her time in the army has helped her build up a strong, muscular body. She has large facial spines pointed back towards her body that are the same ice white as the rest of her. She has abnormally (for a Kaian) gold-yellow eyes. Her face has a permanent blue war paint stripe diagonally from her right eye to her chin representing her rank in the Kaian army. Her broad wings are fixed on her back, with tiny icy spikes running along the spine. She is about the size of a Humvee.

Abilities:
Chaa, being Kaian, has various ice abilities. She can generate a layer of ice over her body that she uses as armour, or as a weapon over her arms. Her breath can reach -80 degrees Celsius, enough to freeze water is seconds. Her internal body temperature hovers at -5 degrees Celsius, and she will die if it ever hits higher than 15 degrees. Because of this, all Kaians poses an internal cooling magic that is almost always active.

Personality:
Chaa is a neutral dragon. She is neither overly kind nor cruel. She is comfortable around other people and has an air of authority around her from her time as a corporal in the military. She often puts more trust into people than might be earned than some dragons. She is always worried about her temperature in the warmer regions of the world. She still likes travelling though, and working as a messenger to other kingdoms/clans makes her happy.

Strengths:
Chaa trusts easily. She is outgoing and adventurous. She prefers to be busy than to have nothing to do.

Weaknesses:
Trusting people easily is not always a good thing. She has trouble with being impulsive sometimes.

Clan Affiliation: Ice, Kaian subspecies clan.

Rank: Sargeant and Messenger of Kaian Royal Guard.

Name:
Kaian

Plural:
Kaian

Adult Age:
20

Life Expectancy:
140

Description:
The Kaian are a race of dragons distinguished by their affinity with ice. A Kaian is usually ice white and indistinguishable from the flat northern ice caps. Their wings are fixed on their back and many have rows of spikes, studs, horns, or other boney features somewhere on their bodies.

The Kaian claw is a natural manipulator, it has an opposable thumb.

They can generate ice on their bodies along any surface, and this ice is usually formed in a way that does not hinder natural motion. Their breath reaches -80 degrees Celsius if properly trained to use it. Because of their strong affinity with ice, Kaians internal body temperature hovers at -5 degrees. An internal body temperature of over 15 degrees will kill them, with higher temperatures having a faster effect. Kaians are rarely found outside of permafrost regions, although they can reach further south by using their ice abilities and travelling at night.

Strengths:
The ice that covers their body can be used as shielding, armour, or weapons. Their breath is extremely cold and can cause frostbite, limb loss, or death over extended exposure. Poisonous blood.

Weaknesses:
Heat will kill a Kaian. They have an inbuilt fear of fire, similar to humans’ fear of the dark, and do not use it in their camps. Most warmer climates are a no-go zone unless they have sufficient arrangements for cooling setup. Some are daring enough to travel farther south at night, both for business and pleasure, but not many.

Notes:
A Kaians most deadly attack is forming a long, icy spike with an arm and driving it through the chest of an opponent. As such, Kaian warriors who specialise in these particularly deadly attacks are known as Ice Arms. The Kaian are a more solitary species, with the majority living in clans of a few families nearly an hours flying from the treeline. The Kaians’ naturally harsh habitat, a comfortable -20, would be deadly for many species over a long period of time.

Kaians have a Monarchy where the firstborn, if seen fit by the High General and his commanders, will be appointed to be monarch for 10 years. After this period, the monarch goes under review and can either be appointed again or another child is chosen. If they deem there is no suitable child to rule, the High General will assume command for a maximum of five years until a suitable child of any royal Kaian heritage reaches maturity.

The military is a strong cultural rallying point for the Kaians. A high military rank shows that they are to be respected, honoured, and treated specially.

Kaian blood is filled with ethylene glycol, also known as antifreeze. Their metabolism is specially modified to cope with the increased amount of the chemical in every cell and it is nontoxic to a Kaian. However, Kaian blood is poisonous to any other animal. Ethylene glycol is also a sweet chemical, and the strong flavour is still present in their blood. It is not unheard of for Kaians to sell off their blood as an acute poison.

Name:
Grekan

Gender:
Male

Age:
Grekan is middle-aged.

Appearance:
He is navy blue dragon with tan under scales and red features. His forearms and wings are unified like a bat's making him arch his back when landed. He has long, sharp, black-red claws at the end of his arms. His face and body is scarred and damaged, almost as damaged as his wings. Several spots on his body are scabbed or charred. He has several missing teeth and a permanent sinister grin. He is about the size of a dump truck.

Abilities:
He can connect to others' minds and tell them to do things directly or make them feel paranoid, frightened, anxious, nervous, etc. He can also generate anger and more powerful emotions if they are weak minded enough. He also has trained himself to use telepathy and can transmit his words or debilitating sounds. It is a sharp, buzzing sound and he calls using it against someone "buzzing" them. (It is similar to a concrete saw)

Personality:
Grekan is manipulative and uncaring for basic social decency. He is a psychopath, and enjoys killing. He enjoys killing so much, he often cannibalizes his enemies. It has gotten to the point where he will eat other sentient creatures rather than foraging for normal food. He has a softer side to him, but he has buried it under so much hate and toxicity he will never become 'good' in his life.

Strengths:
Grekan is a skilled fighter, having spent much of his life murdering. He is hardened to pain, almost as if his body now expected to be torn up every day. He can manipulate most others' emotions easily to some degree, and he does it in a way that is difficult to figure out exactly who is doing it.

Weaknesses:
He is completely unable of cooperating unless he is in charge, meaning it is unlikely he will ever build an alliance with anyone. His past is a scar on him that he refuses to let go, or talk about.

History:
Grekan was not a normal dragon in his village. He was born with the ability to manipulate emotions, read minds and telepathy. His village was not welcoming to his unique set of abilities. He was seen as cursed, possessed, and evil by the extremely superstitious people. This led him to become an untouchable, unwanted, unloved youth. It was the constant bullying that drove him over the edge though. If the village wanted to fear him, everyone would fear him.

He started planning with the voice in his head. He would make sure that everyone knew Grekan was not to be challenged. Soon after, the village was slaughtered. His natural size and strength let him overpower any who opposed. Those who fought would fall, clutching their bleeding ears until he ended them as cruelly as possible.

With his village dead he left for the clans to the east. Cats, dogs, dragons, it didn't matter what. Everyone would know to fear his name. He only made it halfway before his condition worsened. He lost his drive to take power and replaced it with the pleasure of others suffering. He wanted blood, and he wanted it everywhere.

Clan: Fuk you.

Rank: See Clan.

LUNE
being a fool is easier than learning to think

Name: Lune
Age: Around 92 years old
Gender: Female
Species: Fluer
Clan Affiliation: Nature Clan
Rank: Healer
Abilities: - The ability to disguise herself with chameleon-like attributes. Although, if she is moving, it makes it easier to see her.
- Grow and control plant life.
- Speak all the animal languages.

Personality: Fluer is a kind and empathetic dragon, always willing to lend a hand to another in need. She understands the value of life and refuses to act in any violent way or fashion. The only act of violence she will perform is hunting. The 'Fluer' dragon species is very ancient, and many famous dragon healers are of this species. Lune is somewhat cautious and guarded, and hard-to-please. She is wise beyond her young age, and even though she is quiet, when she speaks others tend to listen more than not. She is hardly known to ever lose her temper or speak ill of others--so when either of those things happen, you will know that it is very serious indeed. Often her curiosity and need to know things may get her into trouble, but the dragoness can be quite charming when she needs to be.

History: Ah, I always find it better to reveal this in the RP.
Relationships: None
Crush/Bf/Gf/Mate: None
Hatchlings: Not yet
Other: Hm. I'm not sure if i have a favorite dragon, they're all so cool!

Age: Perhaps somewhere around 1,000 years of age
Gender: Male
Species: Frost Demon (He is the only known member of his species at this time)
Clan Affiliation: Ice Clan
Rank: Elite Warrior / Royal Guard
Abilities: - He can breathe a cold substance that when touched by a living thing with equally burn like fire and sting like the cold. It can affect any dragon very drastically, so he only uses it in the most dire situations. Plus it takes a lot of energy and effort. This ability gave him his nickname.
- Impervious to cold.
- His claws also secrete this mysterious substance, as well as his tail-tip.

Personality: Orion is a very mysterious and guarded individual. He often presents himself as if he has no feelings. Many individuals fear him, and he uses that to his advantage. If you gain his trust he proves to be a steadfast and loyal friend who would give his life for you. He takes everything very seriously and seldom makes jokes or even laughs. He is not without a heart though, he has just yet to find someone to help him see the good in the world. He is a realist, perhaps leaning more on the pessimistic side at times.
