Appearance -------------

Luke has always been the one to make the females drool, their mouths hanging open as he walks stiffly across the street. He is very attractive with a sort of 'bad boy' or 'dark type' reputation around him though both happen to be true. Not that he gives attention to his lady 'friends' of course though.The only two colours on Luke's body are red and black, though there are different shades of red. He has bright yellow eyes, that are piercing considering his other dark colours though he has heard others call them sometimes 'a light in the darkness'. His body is covered with crosses though the male thinks they are like targets for a bow and arrow, screaming look at me or shoot me. So, needless to say, he doesn't really likes them as he thinks they stand out to much while he wold rather fade away to a shadow or being able to blend in with this surroundings. Luke also has hair, something that not all dragons have though he thinks it's a really stupid tuft on his head that covers his eyes. Still, he can't bring himself to cut it off because honestly, it's part of who he is.

Luke has many piercings over his body, he did them himselves instead of wasting what little money he has to pay someone else to do it when he could do it just as well. The truth is, he doesn't even know why he did it, not to look cool, he knows that. Maybe to scare others off, maybe he thought that people would stay away from him and keep their distance if they saw they he might be dangerous? Or because he enjoyed the sharp jabs of pain shooting through him? No one knows the answer for sure but many guess. Maybe it's because he enjoys them guessing. And of course the jewel power always plays an important part in a jewel mane dragon's life. The thrill of getting it, the mark when you finally become an adult, the wonder when first using it and then the horror when things turn very wrong one day ... Yes, Luke has a black jewel, pitch black, black as the night with the powers of death and destruction. This big boy doesn't even like his jewel colour but we'll get onto that later in this personality! Luke's fair is very ragged and long, almost always covered with dirt, mud and filth.

Personality -------------

Despite what he tells himself again and again, Luke is a good soul and wants to help overs with all his heart. He has done bad things in the past, true but everyone makes mistakes and sometimes you just have to move on. He believes he is going to hell for his crimes and there is nothing that anyone can do to save him but Luke has changed for the better. He beats himself up for things that have happened long ago and tries to get others to stay away from him by telling them his story. In his mind it will probably scare of of but sadly many are like stupid sheep and something completely different happens. They would be interested in him, what happened to him when they should be sick to the very core at the thought of murdering so many dragons who have done nothing wrong. Luke believes he doesn't deserve friends and most of all, he can't love, it's just too risky. It's quite unlikely that he will ever fully forgive himself and that is understandable, of course after all he's be through but he will probably forgive himself more, bit by bit as time passes on. Someone will need to help him.

And then of course there's this 'little' blood problem that you have to keep an eye on, it's almost like a vampire as others joke around. But this is no laughing matter. Luke struggles deeply when blood is spilt, has to shut his eyes, hold his breath and dig his claws into the ground to stop himself from lunging wildly at the wounded dragon. Yeah, so I guess being a nurse or a docter is pretty much ruled out for him even though he would like to help heal people one day ... though I can't see that future for him, can you? It causes him pain, in his heart and in his threat when this happens though he fears he will lose control and go nuts. Lets hope this will never happen though. Luke isn't your social butterfly or your 'happy go lucky' type of dragon, he pushes people away if they start to become closer to him. The way to know if Luke is becoming close to you, the way to know when you can expect him to go all harsh on you is when you see him smile ; truly smile. Not a little arrogant smirk or a sarcastic smile which goes along with a sarcastic smile but a plesant smile, a smile of blooming friendship.

Luke holds grudges for a very very long time, if you steal his wallet then he'll never forgive you but if you call him a monster he'll be quick to forgive because he knows it's true. So, don't get on his bad side unless you have a good reason, something that he also feels about himself! This black jewel also doesn't work well with flirting, he sees right through it and stomps off the second he sees. He's had many girls chasing after him before but he crushes all their hearts, one by one.He's also very blunt and will say exactly what he thinks even if it includes hurting someone over the age of five. Now, if someone isn't attractive he won't just go up to them and say 'you're ugly' but if they ask him 'do you think i'm beautiful?', well then, you gotta tell the truth right? The only reason why he lies with the little kids is because what he can't stand most of all is a screaming tantrum with crying, he normally just shoves a tissue in their mouth if it gets too bad. You have to be stubborn but finally, it can take months you may be able to gain Luke's trust and become his friend, once a friend for this grumpy black dragon and he is your protecter for life. And you'll also notice other things as well, he'll tell you his fears and admit what he is afraid of but he expects you to tell him as well. That's only fair in his eyes.

To some it all up Luke is hard to get as a friend but when he is, he'll never leave your side.

History -------------

Luke's mother died while giving birth to him, he was the only offspring in the family with no brothers or sisters. Some other jewel mane dragons may feel regretful about this, they may want an older sibling they can look up to for advice and help or a young brother or sister who they can give advice to and help. But no, he wasn't like that at all, he loved being the only child as therefore all the attention was directed towards him! Okay, the secret is out, he wasn't born into what you would call a 'royal' family but he was born into a highly respected family in the town. People gave him gifts every so often and due to his father's richness, he was given everything he wanted so it didn't even matter so much he didn't have a mother to share his life. They live on a grand country-side house and the girls swooned over him, wishing he was their boyfriend. Luke had everything he ever wanted.

Though the elders promised a dark fate for him, they predicted a future like no other and that shadows would walk in his past. They saw his arrogant and spoilt ways though they felt sorry for him but warned others that if they hung around too much around him, they would regret it. Due to this, a few dragons who used to be Luke's biggest fans dropped away when they had this talk, fearing for their lives. Luke, fearful of being un-popular and furious with the old fools in the town, he ordered a trained assassin to 'remove' them, directing them to make the elders suffer when they died. The assassin came back, took his money with grim pleasure and eventually, over time Luke wished he had commited it himself. He wanted to know what it was like to kill, what it was like to feel the life ebb away underneath his paws while he danced gleefully around the limp body. He promised himself he would get what he wanted.

His father had begun to get more and more short-tempered with him, dad and Luke's stubborn personalities clashed with each other often, making even the simplest conversation a real struggle without snapping jaws. It was during one of these near vicious fights when Luke's father said to his son; 'You're real messed up, you know that? I see you frying ants alive with that shard of glass of yours. I saw you throwing that poor cat of the building. You're seriously sick in the mind. And you know what? I don't even know what to do with you anymore.' Something inside the young male just snapped them, it hurt him so deeply but also unleashed a boiling rage inside of him. Angry as a bull, he grabbed his father's neck and snapped it with a sharp twist before letting go, watching carefully as the breathing slowed and then stopped. Most jewels would be utterly horrified that they had just killed their own father but oh no, Luke did share any of their grief. Instead, he gave a savage grin of pleasure.

He went around, his mind twisted and foggy with nothing but a desire to kill. Kill, kill, kill. Blood, blood, blood. All around the village, every face he could see was killed, he loved this sick little sport of his. From town to town he travelled, often targeting young soft princess like girls as they mostly were more afraid of him then the guys would be. Luke loved seeing the fear on their faces, shining deep in their eyes even for the few who bothered to try and put on a brave face. This went on for a very long time, he doesn't exactly know how long it had gone for but it came to an end eventually, maybe months or even years later. Not days though, so much more then just days. But Luke had a problem, a very big problem actually. More then one. Even though he wanted to stop doing what he had done, he found he still had a problem with blood and was lunging across for them in a split second. Even though he can't explain how tempting it was and how hard he fought, he managed to control it but not without pain and burning.

And another problem, what was he going to say to the police? They were after him, trying to chase him down but the slippery little guy managed to slide out of their grip each time to escape. They would kill him or at the very least throw him in prison for the rest of his sad, miserble life. So he grew out his hair to a fairly long length for a guy's and gave himself as many piercings as he could without infecting himself too badly. Then, he got what little friends he has, you might almost feel sorry for him for his social life actually or should I say lack of social life. He has dealed with girlfriends with others crushing on him [ awkard! ] and him having to turn them down, gently sometimes. He's found his love inside his pets who teach him lessons every day and has found his talents in things he wouldn't expect them to be in as well. He is well, I guess you would call it an artist of sorts. A graffiti artist at that actually! The black-jeweled male takes great comfort in drawing his feelings on the wall and writing messages on it. So yes, this is Luke's basic description of his life, maybe we'll get deeper into it sometime?

Pets ------------- x x x x x x


You wouldn't expect what Luke would have as a pet, would you? You would think he had a glittering powerful python or a fierce tiger that was the king of the forest but to the shock of many others is that when it comes to pets, he's a normal joe like you and me. The first fluffy bundle of love he got was a golden retriever who he named Carmen, a gentle and loving name which he thought would fit her. And the black jewel also gones Harley, a young and bouncy bernese mountain dog who recenty had nine puppies! How exciting, right? It's weird, though, these two didn't get along at first, fighting all the time and the black-jeweled male had to seriously consider giving one of them away. But now they are best friends! That's a story I will retell later though.

Carmen - Luke never wanted a pet, it was more burden to him, he didn't need someone else to care about on top of all his problems, not to mention they couldn't even feed themselves! One of his friends, Syna landed herself in trouble and got thrown into prison, silly girl who didn't think about her actions as well as she should. Anyways, she asked, even begged Luke [ due to the fact that he was her only friend ] and in the end he took the golden retriever only to please her with no intention of keeping it, yes, he saw the dog as an it. Syna had a lifetime in prison so she would never know of the deed, he would jsut dump the dog off on a shelter. But suddenly, as he turned to leave the fierce red-jeweled female grapped his wrist until it became uncomfortable. ''You promise me, Luke,'' she demanded fiercely. ''You promise me you won't leave my best friend, I trust you to look after her and only you. Do you understand? Promse! PROMISE!'' Poor Syna was now crying, sobbing loudly with tears flowing down her battered cheeks.

In that moment Luke thought he was trapped on both sides, unable to break free of her piercing glare, waiting for him to answer. Yes, Luke could lie and lie easily enough but break a promise? That was something else. Feeling the weight of the world on his shoulders, he had hung his head down like a naughty child being scolded by their mother and whispered a soft ''I promise.'' Then, the male yanked out of her grip and spun around, walking out the door with the key to her place clutched tightly in his fist. He never saw her again. When he got to Syna's former shabby and falling down house, he hung over the wheel for a long time before getting out and opening the dreaded door. The fist thing he noticed was that everything was gone, the paintings on the walls, the old T.Vhad been taken and there was just dust where it had normally been.

The second thing he noticed was the joyful barking and the loud pounding of paws heading down the hallway. A yellow dog appeared and for a moment, it's head and tail seemed to droop in disappointment, she must be hoping to see her owner instead. But Luke was better then nothing so in a couple of seconds, she was up and jumping over him again, slobbery kisses on his face. Regretting his choise more then ever now, he pushed her down. Luke had forgotten to ask Syna for her name so after a few days, he took it upon him to name her himself. Carmen seemed to be a good name for such a friendly dog so that was what he settled on eventually. On a visist to the vet, the male also learned that the newly named Carmen was most likely young 1 to 2 years old maybe?

It took a while for ownership to kick in as Carmen was still missing her first master but now Luke is more glad then ever for taking this slobbery princess who refuses to get mud on her paws in.

Harley - This girl's story is very different from Carmen's though has much drama in it as well. Luke was walking through the woods one day, his new golden furry friends padding faithfully by his side of course when he heard this yowling, it sounded like a dying animal to be honest. Curious, he crept closer to see what the problem was and the sight didn't shock him though it wasn't exactly plesant to see either. He knew his dog breeds and he knew this was a young, maybe ten month old bernese mountain puppy. It was no where near as lush as the breed normally was though, it's fur wasn't silky but instead clumped and knotted with mud, much like Luke himself actually. But what wasn't the same to himself was that this animal was all skin and bones. Over the period of time of owning Carmen, Luke had grown a deep affection towards dogs, the big ones most of all. He couldn't believe someone would do something this horrible.

Making up his mind of the spot, the male took the bernese mountain dog puppy in under his wing and cared for her for a few days. Then, a purple jewel couple, so a male and female dragon came knocking on his door. The female was plump, slightly overweight with angry chubby cheeks while the male had a nasty looking ferret-face and was very skinny. The man accused Luke of stealing their dog and that they wanted her back right now as she was going to be used for breeding due to very good bloodlines. They threatened they would turn him into the police if he refused but still, Luke hesitated. He whistled for the female dog and she came trotting over, his plan was to see of the dog was happy to see it's former owners. If it was wagging it's tail, bouncing around them he would let her go. But the BMD's hackles rose when she spied and the couple and her teeth bared in snarl.

Ferret face grabbed the dog's scruff and began to drag her out the door but she bit him, sinking her fangs into his hand. Angrily, FF shook her off and was about to hit her when Luke shoved him out of the way. ''Go away,'' Luke had snarled to them both. ''It's easy to see you haven't treat this dog right, she was starving when I found her so you've negleted her. Go and call the police and I'll go and call the RSPCA. They'll charge you for mistreating her and I think the police will be on my side.'' He was bluffing about the police thing, he had been on the run for many years now and if they found his files ... he shuddered mentally at the thought but didn't show any sign of his discomfort. The Ferret face cowered slightly under Luke's glare. ''I'll fight you,'' he whispeted, his voice cracking , to be truthful Ferret face was just all talk and no do, Luke knew it too. ''Sure you will,'' Luke scoffed and slammed the door on their face. Thankfully they haven't bothered him again after that.

Soon after, he decided to name the BMD Harley.

Relationships -------------

Marzia ; owned by { shannon ; friend ; - Only a handful know this but Marzia used to have a crush on Luke though he turned her down shortly over he found out. They didn't talk for a while, Luke not caring, Marzia slightly awkard but done with the whole thing before they somehow came back together. Not as a relationship, of course, nothing like that as the female was already engaged to a guy who Luke soon found out that his name was Nargis. They were indifferent to each other at first before a slow friendship grew between them. Now, look where they are today! Not best buddies, they don't go 'I'm glad you're there for me' or 'I'm so happy to have met you' but they remain friends in their close little way. They even share battles advice and show each other moves! Luke has told Marzia his past, his blood obsession that is still in place and in return she has confessed to him the living monster nightmares that still haunt her.

Bruna [ RPW ] ; owned by me ; friend/enemy ; - Luke was very racist before he met this fiesty young wolf, he scorned all other types of animals except the one of his one ; jewel mane dragons. The red and black male saw JMDs as the best type, the strongest, the swiftest, the smartest and the who could saw in the heavens and use their jewel with special jewel powers. He was walking in the dark woods one day, a new place to him and he was thinking of making it his home before long. It was perfect, there was no light in it and it suited his black heart. It seemed to be empty too, or so he though. He was suddenly pounced on by a creature who he sense was weaker then he was and despite of himself, Luke was slightly impressed that Bruna had taken him on even though she must know he was stronger. ''Get out of here!'' he then heard whispered in his ear before he shoved her off him without any effort. This pair fire sarcastic comments at each other in a battle of the wits and are very competitive though they are close as well if that's possible. Therefore these two are friends though enemies as well in a way.

Francis ; owned by { shannon ; arch enemy ] ; - Eeep, cover your ears and close your eyes when these two clash heads with each other. They are arch rivals though Luke has the upper hand in most of their battles due to how he has a jewel power of strength and destruction while Francis [ though Luke calls him Frankie to wind him up ] does not have a jewel colour yet. They are like a pair of stubborn bulls, forever in an endless fight for power and embarrassing or hurting the other. Francis hates the black jewel because his sister, Nia used to love Luke but Luke hurt her when he didn't love her. Personally, Luke thinks that the reason is completely stupid since Nia has moved on and has a new boyfriend but he doesn't mind fighting little Frankie. He taunts the younger male and urges on the attack without the slightest shame in the world.

Arabella ; owned by { shannon ; enemy ; - These two stubborn jewel mane dragons don't fight nearly as much as Francis and Luke do but they still have their fair share of battles. The black-jeweled male scorns at how Arabella is so obsessed with Harry Potter and as if to prove his point, he ripped apart one of her books and was caught in the act! Now, insulting the HP books to this blue-jeweled female is one thing, destroying on is another. Now, I'm not going to tell you the rest of what happened on that day due to Luke will kill me but I will reveal the red and black male walked away limping and grumbly curses under his breath in fury. Luke still thinks he has a scrore to settle with the fierce female and he longs for a day to catch her off guard, to jump out from the darkness and pin her down so she couldn't even wriggle. Of course, he wouldn't kill her or anything, he tells himself and everyone else those days are long gone by but what he would like is to give her the fright of her life.

Petale ; owned by { shannon ; pet/servent ; - Luke and Petale's relationship ... is an 'interesting' one to say in the least and it's awful, honestly. Whenever he sees her, he treats her like he would treat a dog or treats her like he would even treat a servent, not that he is paying her or anything to get his own way. He orders her bossily around, using her shy and submissive personality to work for his favour and get him want he desires. He doesn't see her too often, which is very good, all things considered and Petale doesn't deserve his. His requests are normally like 'buy me a bbq chicken' or 'give me a ride home' though her parents are not aware of what is happening to their daughter. Luke himself? He knows what he is doing is wrong but thinking about how bad it is takes his mind of other things and they're not 'hurting' anyone so what's the harm in it? He normally uses his brute strength but honestly, it hard to say no to him or refuse over him when he looms over you, yellow eyes cold and furious.

Shrilex ; owned by { shannon ; partner in crime ; - It's very strange, isn't it? Very strange and very ironic that Luke's partner in crime/friend is the father of the black-jewel's worst enemy in the world. Shrillex knows the truth about Francis's and Luke's relationship though he normally just lets the two work it out on their own, bad idea if I say so myself. Shillex also knows that the other male also broke his only daughter's heart but he says the past is past, right? Despite being married and having three adult children, the red-jeweled male still likes to make some mischief with the younger male such as spray-painting on walls and egging houses even when it isn't Halloween! Shrillex fins that he's not so old after all when he gets into this fun, that he still has a young heart and while Luke doesn't have nearly as much fun as his partner, he just plays along. No harm done, right? Might as well let Shrillex enjoy himself as Luke blames himself, telling himself himself he's already torn this family to pieces enough already. The only ones he doesn't think he has hurt seriously is Taliska and Francis's brother.

Story 1 -------------

Frustrated, Luke threw his hands up in the air, a fierce scowl pulling his face closer together. He had left the room for how long? Oh yeah, one minute to go to the bathroom and the moment his back was turned there was snarling between his two dogs. How was this ever going to work when they were at each other's throats when they thought he was distracted? Muttering curses under his breath, the black jewel stalked back, he was in such a bad mood you could almost see the steam blowing out of his ears and the devil horns. ''Stop it!'' He snapped angrily and dragged Harley away from Carmen who both looked meeky at him, awaiting a scolding. Luke took a deep breath and studied both animals, he knew what was going on. Harley was the problem, she kept having a go at the golden retriever due to jealousy as Carmen still held Luke's affections that most. Carmen fought back and then it was a free for all. The male dreaded he would have to give away one of the dogs. Both were amazing in their both way but deep down, he knew if worst come to worst he would keep Carmen and give away Harley.

Harley was the cause of the problems and Harley was the second dog he got so it had to be her. It made him feel hollow, the bernese female was bouncy and loveable with a certain flare to her. Sadly, he ruffled the young dog's scruff and instantly, Carmen nudged his hand for a pat of her own, jealous. But Harley veered away from him, not allowing herself to be scratched like she normally did. Confused, Luke studied her until his mouth dropped open upon seeing the bulge in Harley's belly, how had he not noticed it before? Shock crashed upon him like a tidal page and before he even knew, he was dialing Marzia's number, his fingers furiously crashing among the keys in a flurry of panic. It took a few rings but the female finally picked up the phone. ''Marzia, hey.'' Luke said and not even waiting for her answer, went on. ''Look, this may sound crazy but I think Harley, you know Harley my dog, right? I think she's having puppies.'' It took Marzia several moments to reply but when you did, it almost sounded like she was surpressing laughter. ''Well, maybe you -'' Luke didn't let her answer, he hung up the phone.

He wasn't in the mood for joking and he was mad at Marzia, this was no laughing matter. She was no help at all and Shrillex probably wouldn't understand. It looked like Luke was on his own. He took Harley to the vet where the other dragon reported that she was indeed, pregnant with about eight to ten puppies, Luke almost fainted at the number! She then also scolded him for not getting his dog desexed but not in the mood for lecturing either, he left almost right away. Well, desexing was the first thing he was going to do once he sorted out these puppies. And that brings something up, what was he going to do with Harley's happy bundles of fluff? He didn't have the heart to give them to the shelter but it was out of the question keeping these puppies, maybe one though. Probably give them away but give the home a good check before he did. Several weeks passed by with Luke caring for the ungrateful pregnant female who grew snappier every day. Carmen didn't bother to fight back anymore, she would just keep her distance, if Harley came into view then she would go scurrying off to the next room.

The next day Luke was out for a bit and when he came back, Harley was lying there, exhausted but with nine healthy puppies, purebred bernese mountain dog puppies it seemed when he gave them a closer look. A couple of things changed over the couple of days after that, all good news thanfully. Harley's agressive acts stopped completely, she no longer snapped at Luke or tried to pick a fight with Carmen. The two dogs became best friends, actually and a few times the black-jeweled male almost could swear his golden retriever was helping the new mother with her offspring. There was five female puppies and four males altogether ; he named the females Spring, Gypsy, Ebony, Hayden and Violet. The males were called Bear, Dusty, Tyson and Benny. Luke loves them all of course but he has decided not to keep one after all see he can't choose between them so he is currently looking for homes for them. He is giving them away for free but making people interested in adopting them sign a contract promsing that if they cannot care for one of them anymore, they have to give them back to Luke. So far, none of them have gone yet but Luke has had several people interested in taking home them.

Dusty is the trouble-maker for the boys, always being as naughty as he can be while pulling apart blankets, feathers everywhere so when you walk in, your think you've been caught in a blizzard. He leads the pack of males while Ebony leads the females to born. Nearly half of Luke's things are destorying by their needle-sharp teeth.

But he loves them all the same.

Dream ; Story 2 -------------

Darkness, darkness all around him, he opened and shut his eyes again and again, seeing if it was light or not. A very small part of him knew that this was just a dream, that he was trapped in this world with no way to get out of it. A small light glowed faintly in the distance and instantly, he eagerly leapt to his paws in a swift, almost graceful movement and ran towards it. But he couldn't never quite reach it, each time he came close it would leap away again. Panic began to make his chest tighten as he looked wildly around for an escape, the light was proving to be no use now. ''Help!'' he called, shutting his eyes in alarm when no help came. Would he be trapped here forever? Would there be no way to get out? This was it, wasn't it? This was God's way of punishing him for being such a monster, giving Luke's worst fear of the dark. He deserved it, he knew that. Calm down, calm down, the male told himself again and again. It's just a dream, it's just a dream. But despite this, tears streamed silently down his cheeks.

And then suddenly the dream turned into something else but just as bad as the first, the scene changing around him like someone switching channels on the T.V. But this time, he did not think he was still in a dream, in Luke's mind he was free and waking up. Smiling softly that the dream was gone, he stood up and walked out of his room, thinking it was a little funny that Carmen wasn't in his room but he shrugged it off soon enough. ''Carmen! Harley! Puppies!'' They ran to him right away, slobber falling from their jaws and fluffy tails wagging madly from everyone. But he did not grin like he would normally on any other day. Instead the black-jeweled male stared hard at them and lunged. Blood was the only thing he could think about and one by one, he killed them all before standing up, smirking at their weakness. But there were more deaths to be one.

''Hey, Luke!'' A voice called cheerfully and his head turned to watch another male scamper over to meet him. Shrillex. That death was a quick one and over the morning, he went on a killing spree, they were all falling to his feet, the ones he loved and the ones he hated. His friends and enemies. Arabella, Marzia, Petale and even his arch rival Francis were all dead soon enough. Nothing felt better, to add to the dead were also jewel mane dragons he didn't know, he hadn't even met them before and their pelts were a blur or colours, shapes and patterns. Laughing loudly, he tipped back his head and let out a savage howl that even the deaf could hear. ''Ahhh!'' Luke snapped out of his dream, no, wrong word, his nightmare panting on his sweat-soaked bed. Would he ever be free? He was having this nightmare for months now and it never seemed to leave him. It was what he was. But still, Luke prayed extra hard that it would never come true. Please, please, don't let it happen.

Poem -------------

Just leave me alone
Do not approach me
You don't to hang around
I can never be free

You just don't understand
Why can't you see I can't love?
Yet you don't try and flee
Please, I'm not a white dove

You shouldn't be a friend
Just take a good look into my heart
I'm not a good person or dragon
Just take my advice and be smart

I'm going to hell, that's for sure
I want to be noble but how?
I suppose it doesn't matter
Not run go and run along now!

The Soppy Stuff -------------

Ugh, there are so many reasons why I want this fella but I'll just start with his design first. When I first joined CS, I saw a JMD. I fell in love with these creatures instantly and made a promise to myself to get one of them, no matter how hard it would be, I would get one. Okay, I admit, I thought they were a tiny bit strange at first with the jewels on their forehead and whatnot, mostly because I hadn't seen anything like it before. Hah, that didn't last long, over a few short hours I thought they were totally awesome! I first tried for Khione in the pound but the owner decided to keep her so oh well. I looked at the pound again not long after and saw Luke but I didn't want to try for him, the competition was just too fierce. But after a while, it was just too tempting and I knew from that moment on I couldn't leave him without putting up a fight first. So, back on track, his looks ... are amazing. The crosses speak volumes for his personality, I think and those eyes stick out to me. No, I think the hair looks really good but I'm not trying out for him because of it. Now I'll skip on to the other reason.

I connect with him, simple as that. He's made many, many mistakes in the past and other jewel mane dragons have died for his crimes though he's the one that has suffered more then any of them. It's not the type of normal sad story you hear, but have you ever thought what it was through Luke's eyes? What it seemed like to him? All the time when he could even half-focus or quarter-focus, he hated himself but when he saw his 'prey', he couldn't help it, couldn't think about it before they lay dead at his paws by his doing. And then, with much effort and tormenting himself he forced himself to stop, at least that's how I think it happened, through my eyes. I see him clearly and I can put myself in his place, of course didn't actually do all the things he did in real life but I still, I don't know ... easily put myself in his shoes? Okay, I'll stop typing about how much I connect to him right now 'cause I think you get it, I want him xD and I think I'm possibly boring you to death. Now, lets move on to some other stuff which I will probably right millions of words about! - sigh -

Yes, I do believe I would give him a good home, I don't know the other people entering for him so I'm not sure if they would give me a better home then me, they might. But to the best of my abilites, I would try and Luke active, to never collect dust and if I was to quit CS or even leave for a few years, I would make sure I found him a good owner and not rot away, unactive and possibly even forgotten. I would try and get some others jewel mane dragons to be an adopted family maybe or even one who is his full brother or sister! Yeah, that would be interesting to say in the least, I think their relationship with each other would be very - troubled - [ cough violent cough ]. Over time I would release Luke to friendship rps though I doubt many of them will work out, I kinda just want him with one friends, his best friend. Call me crazing but I've already starting to think her up! She would have to be sweet and kind, beautiful [ though he wouldn't be paying attention to her looks ], a supporter when times turn tough but most of all have some fire in her step and be able to defend herself.

Yes, of course I would! I doubt he would love me back so sadly but all well, his choice, right? As a said before, I'm not sure if I could love him more then the other people trying but I'm certain for this one I could love him just as much. I already adore him so much I heart could explode and I haven't even won him! Even if Luke did go to someone else, he would still hold a very special place in my heart, one that couldn't be changed. Yes, I do mean what I say when I say that [ gosh that sounds silly! ]. I have only been here a short time but over that time, I've seen loving owners lose connection with their dragons and put them up for adoption because they're not sure what to do. However, I don't believe that would happen to me, I know, probably everyone says this and of course I can't make any promises but chances are that Luke would stay on my account for as long as I was active on CS.

Yes! A big fat yes to that, in fact. As mentioned earlier I would send Luke out for friendship rps at first [ though most of them would probably turn out to be enemies ] and then after a long long time send him out for blind dates. Of course, he would hate every moment of it but what can he do to stop me? Maybe, one day he would find a love though that is very unlikely. I would rp on CS, through pm or forum, the other person I am rping with may take their pick but I would possibly rp him on other websites as well because the truth is, Luke would swear a fair bit. It wouldn't just be 1 x 1 rps as well though, I am kinda obsessed with finding Luke a sister so I would look around for one. I have seen other people make public role plays for jewel mane dragons so I would join one of them, it would be good for him to interact and possibly take on more then one creature! With this experience though, I strongly doubt he would lose. When I got other dragons I would write a story about them all together and when they get into sticky problems too.

Another yes to this as well, in fact. As you can see, I do not even have a siggie at the moment so I think it would be good for me to have one! As I got more dragons, I would change my siggie every day as well so they would be included to, besides, Luke wouldn't like the attention trained on him all the time. It would have his mood, his crush [ cough yeah right! cough ], his location and who he was with. I have this whole amazing idea for the format, at least I think it's amazing in my head, I haven't even tried it out yet to see if it will fit or not. I would change my signature as he changed his mood or he went somewhere else or if he found someone esle he liked [ though I'm pretty certain that box will say no one the whole time ] or if someone else came over and said hello.

This form belongs to Taiyo, I did not make it. All credits go to them and I would like to thank them for letting me kindly use it!
