Name:
Rymris
Nickname(s):
Rym, Ry
Age:
Young adult
Gender:
Female
Species:
Coldhide dragon
Power:
Ice breath
Mate:
None currently
Rider?:
None currently (PM me if interested)

Description
As the name suggests, coldhide dragons are usually cold to the touch. They usually remain in cold areas to keep at the correct temperatures so aren't often seen in hotter areas if at all. While not unbearably cold, it's usually enough to deter most creatures who try to kill them. If they become too hot for too long, their ice breath fails to work and they can become lethargic. While they typically stay on the ground most of the time, coldhides can fly decently well though they aren't very fast. They are typically a large dragon when fully grown. Coldhide dragons are known for their ice breath that can freeze their prey solid. As a whole, coldhides aren't usually social but rarely they can be seen in small groups.

History
Rymris has spent much of their life alone. Shortly after hatching, she had been abandoned in a forest, far from where she should have been. Lost and confused, she wandered around aimlessly until she came across some caves that gave her protection against any predators and heat. Even now, Rymris rarely leaves the caves unless she needs to. Rymris is not quite full grown yet and knows her cave home won't be big enough when she reaches adulthood but for now they work well enough.

Personality
Rymris is an elusive dragon, preferring not to be seen by anything. While she doesn't hate humans, she tries to avoid them as much as possible. If she has to interact with others, she tries not to be unkind and to remain polite though she can be blunt with a lot of things and can be a little impatient with conversations.. However, with those who she considers friends Rymris can be more patient and will often talk more with them. In any situation, Rymris prefers to think before she acts.

Weaknesses
Rymris cannot go where it's too hot for too long due to needing to stay cool to survive. While she is capable of flying, she can be a slow flyer and is not suited for flying in small and/or narrow areas due to her size.

Breed: Antarctic Tunderhorn
Allegiances:
(Open)
Power: Electricity
Rider: Lyr Salaun
Personality: Vespak is proud as his species go, taking great pride in his gleaming appearance, spending much of the day preening. When he's not admiring himself however he loves a good joke or riddle and amuses himself to great ends confusing any he meets. Though he's not a high energy being his presence is very large and his arrivals are more often than not unannounced. He is a difficult creature to bond with due to his independence but is loyal to those he deems worthy.
History: He had been the run egg left to die. Hatching alone, Vespak has had to fight for survival since day one making him an expert at aerial acrobatics.

Rider Sheet
Name: Lyr Salaun
Age: 19

Appearance: A tall skinny man of asian descent. Dark hair with grey eyes and a defined jaw line. Often wearing tear proof and fire proof clothing. Has a defining scar through his left eyebrow.
Allegiances:
(Open)
Dragon: Open
Personality: Lyr is mostly the strong and silent type, preferring to work rather than talk. He is a man of few words though when the time comes or it's needed he speaks up. Past the harsh exterior he's a loyal friend and rider and would do anything for those he cares about.
History: He grew up in a house hold with three other brothers on a poor farm as a child. He has been working hard for as long as he can remember and moves work from place to place as his form of travel. When things get uncomfortable for him his usual answer is to pick up and move.

Name/Nickname: Romera Noctem/Roma, Mera, Noct
Age: 23
Species: human
Gender: female
Class: archer
—
Acquaintances:
- (N/A)
—
Brief Personality: (this is a jumbled mess just fyi) Romera tends to be ambitious, fearless, and will do anything to get her adrenaline running. She gets bored easily and while she does typically get along with others, she can be a little cold or intrusive depending on the situation. Roma will 100% do things just for bragging rights. Despite her courage (or stupidity), she is aware of her own strengths and will not take needless risks when she knows she’s outmatched.


Strengths: courage, precise aim, has experience from lots of travel, independent
Weaknesses: an adrenaline junkie, stubborn, not super agreeable, cape
—
Extra: flowers

Name/Nickname: Thorin/(Thorn used as an insult, likened to the phrase ‘thorn in my side’)
Age: young adult
Species: dragon, Nordic Skystrike
Gender: male
Breath: lightning
—
Acquaintances:
- (N/A)
—
Brief Personality: Arrogant and headstrong yet cunning and manipulative, Thorin can be a bit unpredictable sometimes. He makes no attempts to pick fights but does like to test other’s nerves. He also thinks it’s fun to intimidate others, though Thorin is rarely cruel enough to follow through. This dragon also has boundless curiosity and is open to testing new waters to add to his trove of knowledge.

Strengths: quick in wit and action, gets “charged” from flying through the air a great deal, cunning
Weaknesses: provokes others, kind of small, does not have much experience with mankind, arrogant, not good camouflage
—
Extra: in addition to his lightning breath, his tail barbs and fangs can also conduct electricity.

@puprot, Oliver is accepted

@Bvork9731, could you write at least two or three lines for Vespak's appearance so others know what he looks like, and I don't think it would be a good idea for your rider and dragon to be bonded together, only because you'd be roleplaying with yourself and it takes the fun out of trying to find a dragon/rider

@cocogerber13, could you give Romera and Thornin descriptions for their appearances? It doesn't have to be a whole paragraph, two or three lines will suffice

[cocogerber13]

The links for their names at the top lead to the drawings! Sorry if that wasn’t clear, I’ll separate them out!
