OK, people! So I heard that my sweetie is starting up a new RP and so, especially for this I'm making a brief come-back from my student-teaching organizational hell to participate. Unfortunately, though, right now this one is all I cna handle. Keep and eye out though for something in a couple months^^
ANYWHO.
Glad to see you're actually starting this one Baby, it looks really good (hence why I'm making the effort at a come-back for it, lol^^). I have a couple characters in mind who may work well, but I think Abyss will work the best, with his knowledge of all things shadowy and evil...y, lol. So that said, here's his info for others who have not RPed with me when I've used him in the past:
Name: Abyss Pitchblade
Age: unknown, VERY old, though, even as most normal dragons go
Race: Nether Dragyn (and that's WHY he's so old, lol, Nether Dragyns live much longer than regular dragons)
Appearance- Human form:
Height: 6'5"
Weight: ???
Hair: Black, tossled, long enough that it falls into his face, but still short enough to be just a guy's cut.
Eyes: One bright blue, the other bright red
Build: Very built, muscly, etc, but seeing as he doesn't exactly walk around shirtless, you'd never know, really
Pref. Clothing: Usually either a blue, tan, or white tunic or muscle shirt, black pants, heavy thick boots made from dragon scales of various subtle colors, black cloak, black gloves, a series of belts round his middle (think Squall from FFVIII, sort of).
Defining features: Tattoo on his right shoulder of a black Nether Dragyn with red eyes- eyes glow when he's shifting to dragyn form- fangs, and his ears, which even in human form maintain little ridges on them, so that when these are noticed he can't always just blend right in.
Appearance- Dragyn form: Let it just suffice that he's a pretty big dragyn. He's black with silver-ish white "trimmings" so to speak, meaning the spikes along his back, the pincers at the end of his tail, the fin-like structures on either side of his face (about where his ears would be), and his claws. In his full Nether Dragyn form (think Hell Dragon for an equivilant) his scales go from being a keen, lustry black to dull, lifeless black so that he literally almost looks like a living shadow. Except that shadows don't constantly bleed black sludge from various wounds, nor do they possess burning red eyes. Also, in this second dragyn form his claws, spikes, and fangs not only become substantially longer, but they take one a reddish sheen, as though they were blood-stained. The fins on the side of his head disappear and become a set of spikes, and spikes appear at the edges of his wings. He also gains a slight acidic quality to his venom. In this form, anywhere he goes, a trail of black smoke follows and often kills any plants, grass, etc that he happens to walk across. All in all, he avoids this second dragyn form until he absolutely has to use it, as it draws not only on his own power, but also o Pitchblade's.
Weapons: Claws, fists, tail, knows how to use a sword, just doesn't actively carry one.
Personality: Despite his intimidating appearance in either human or dragyn form, Abyss is actually a very laid-back, well meaning guy. In truth, he'd much rather have a good laugh over a good drink than fight, unless it involves exacting a certain amount of justice or ridding the world of one more unsavory character. In his exceptionally long life he has seen much, and while he is not flagrantly open with the knowledge that he possesses, he will use it when he sees fit to aid those who may benefit from it. His long years have also seen a certain amount of damage done on his part to others, and part of him is in constant battle for redemption for it. Thus, while at heart he is a laid-back and fun-loving, very honest, and fairly open person, he also knows when to be serious and how to use his experiences to the benefit of his peers.
History: Abyss is the son of the two greatest dragon clan leaders of the age, Pitchblade, Lord of the Nether Dragyns, and Luminescence Mistress of the Magi clan of Dragons. Initially Luminescence's intent when mating with Pitchblade was to create with him an offspring who would be more powerful than Pitchblade himself, and who would kill him when the time came. Pitchblade was, after all, the Lord of the Nether Dragyns and as such the hollower of Hell and the lord of sorrows, answering only to his creator, the Rebellious Angel himself. Seeking to end his reign of terror, Luminescence mated with him and had one offspring, that being Abyss. What she did not anticipate was the child's aptitude for all things magic, both light and dark, holy and sacreligious, nor did she count on his immense ability in battle. But this was proven when war broke out between the Nether Dragyns and the Magi clan, and her son fought against his father. As she had hoped, he won, but at a terrible price. Pitchblade's body was destroyed, but his soul, had it not been caught and trapped by Abyss and Luminescence, would have just gone back to hell. And so, without Abyss's consent, Luminescence trapped Pitchblade's soul within the young dragyn, via a forced tattoo on his right shoulder in his human form. He did not take it well and her good intent turned against her when her only son began his own reign of terror, turning to the Nether Dragyns as his true people and committing YEARS of unspeakable acts with them as their king. She could not know that he was under his father's sway, and only after another great battle would he again subdue him. Since that last battle he has become a wanderer, aimlessly going where the wind, rumor and his feet take him, seeking to right the wrongs of his past. From time to time he wanders home to see his mother and his half-siblings, but at this particular time, rumors of an ancient, familiar darkness have brought him to Hargoth, hoping that for once he may be wrong.
