Owner: Kiara <3
Gender: Male
Breedable: Yes
Type: Grizzleback Rune






"A Rune of Many Uses"

"The Grizzleback Rune is a rather large dragon that is the size of a cow. Indeed, it even serves much of the same purposes of cattle as well. Grizzlebacks may appear frightening at first, but these Runes are rather docile unless provoked. They sport an array of stripes and hues, ranging from deep greens to earthy browns. The Grizzleback is valued more by the farmers of Eldemore, who raise these dragons in herds and let them graze upon vast pastures. The dragon is strictly a herbivore and will even guzzle down small trees if you let it. Though this creature is mostly tame, these Runes sport large spikes and small tusks for a reason. They are not afraid to become vicious when threatened by a predator and give fair warning before attacking. Their low bellows and tail smashing is a clear indicator to stay away or face their wrath! Grizzlebacks, unlike most Runes, are flightless and make up for their inability by sheer size and strength. This dragon sports a strong build and it's spikes along it's back and tail protect it as well as it's thick hide. Any Rune Bearer of these dragons knows their true value, the Rune will shed it's spines and horns every few months and are harvested by their owners to sell to the cities. Amazingly enough, the Grizzleback's spines are used to create many tools, since they are of strong material, and their horns are used to create many musical instruments. There are so many uses for these dragons spines, that Eldemore relies on these creatures greatly for their trade. Do not fret though, the Grizzleback always grows more and they are taken good care of by their owners. A happy Grizzleback will produce thicker and more durable horns, which means more profit for the ranchers. These creatures are also used to plow fields and pull carts. Many Caravans are seen with the Grizzleback pulling the carriage, and are used often by travelers and Gypsies, as they coast from town to town. A creature of great strength and endurance, this Rune Dragon is invaluable to the productivity of the land and it's people. "

Owner Name:
Salt
Name:
Glerse - I don't know if this has an actual meaning, I made it up. c:

Gender: 
Male
Personality:
Glerse is always eager, eager for sunrise, sundown, the day itself. Hopeful. If you have no hope, what is there to do? Glerse achieves with hope. Hope is exactly what runs his body. Glerse is also a sneaky thing. Likes to sneak around. Be a 'spy'. All that. BUt most of all. He feels like a kid. 8D
Why do you wish to have him/her:
I'm new to Rune Dragons, and this dragon is the perfect one that I've been waiting for, so I had to apply. He's such a handsome boy. xD
Where will you keep him/her:
He'll be in my character thread, that's for sure, and he'll be sharing my siggy and avatar from time to time with my other characters. c:

Would you like to breed him/her in the future:
I would most likely not like to breed him, but who knows? I might change my mind later. c:
Any Quirks:
Glerse likes scratching drawings on the floor, but can do so without making a sound. c:
Other:
I was happy. Happier than anyone, everyone. It was my day. My time to shine as I had before. My time to be free. I was high upon the branches of my favorite tree, the tree was swaying, but I knew it would hold. It was too big for me to swallow whole, but, I always liked to nibble on the branches. Today, I was to fly away, and be who I wanted to be. I stared at the ground, I stared at the sky, this was something I had never attempted before. Never. I jumped. But I didn't fly away. I started to drop. Plunging into the world beneath me. Down down down. Until I landed with a thud. No broken wings, feet. I was okay, but my hopes had been smashed like the little flower I had landed on. Crushed, destroyed, gone. Gone as the flight I hoped I would take. Gone as my freedom flew away in the wind. It was gone, and there was nothing I had thought of to do. Nothing.
-Just a short clipper of his escape from the home he always knew at the farm-

I will hopefully have time for art. c:

Still a WIP
