Height: Indefinitely variable. 9.5 to 12 feet in his favored bipedal form.
Weight: Indefinitely variable. 850 to 1,800 lbs.
Physical Appearance:
Draygun's appearance is mostly that of his own genetic one, not purely from his mind's creation (as he is a shapechanger). His serene face is rounded with smooth, flowing muscles and is relaxed in a calm or a gently mused expression. The architecture of his long lips and muscular cheeks (you can see his masseter) makes for a rather handsome and contagious grin. Like his dragon companion, Erador, Draygun possesses bioluminescing and iridescent eyes with chatoyant irises akin to polished tigers eye (although he can change the colour of his irises and their illumination at will). Furthermore, his hair forms an obsidian black mane from his brow to his shoulder blades, running between his twin onyx horns. He is armored by a uniquely smooth hybrid between scales and skin that is (by preference and genetically) a deep, rich emerald green with a manifold of visual textures, and reflections.
Draygun is a solidly built individual balancing a toned and built musculature on a stable, wide shouldered frame. His body composition is more of his own design than that of nature's, and he prefers a very sleek body style focusing on a toned and flat abdomen. All other bodily elements are carved to compliment his belly and torso, accented by smooth muscle lines, as well as the striations of veins and tendons. Changing our focus back to his form, we observe that his neck is slightly elongated and possesses a gentle forward curve. The appendage supports Draygun's head with a well developed and flexible musculature as well as additional vertebrae (nine instead of seven). His back is broad and sound, rippling with stable muscles that meld with the base of his elegant tail; a muscular appendage that follows the line of his back to the floor where its tip lightly trails. A single black line adorns the apex (top edge) of Draygun's tail, and fades to his skin's natural tones at the small of his back. Other important aspects include his bowed legs, and broad five clawed paws (his fifth claw is mostly vestigial, although more prominent than in his dragon kin). All his claws are reminiscent of onyx and replace the hard carotin plates of toe and fingernails, though he usually polishes and blunts the claws of his hands to remove sharp edges (lest he is confronted by danger or in battle).
Personality:
Intellectual, proud, warm, gentle, and emotionally volatile are a few ways to begin to describe Draygun's personality. He's rather smart, taking acute interest in whatever interests him. Draygun's pride makes his strengths and talents both entities of elevated rank but also marks them as soft spots, and he's very sensitive to criticism. He's generally fairly aloof and hard to read, an emotional facet governed by his astrological birth sign, Aquarius. Once befriended, Draygun is very loyal; certainly a good choice of person to confide secrets in and seek guidance. His heart is guarded by his cool intellect, but its fiery depths harbour love, passion, and a unique tidal wave of playfulness.
Intelligence:
Vast. If Draygun were to take an IQ test, he'd rank with such intellectual notables such as Albert Einstein. In fact, he knows much about the world and the universe, but is not privileged to share with others until the time that society has advanced enough to know. He is aware of a world beyond the perceived, in touch with its energies and all its atomic pieces. As such, he perceives existence in terms of quantum physics. Draygun has been known to use his knowledge to assist Naran society, the most profound act of which being the design and building of its national energy net. With his scientific grasp on the concept of gravitational forces, he was able to give a precious gift to the Naran Empire; unlimited amounts of magical power. But beyond innate knowledge of the world, his cognitive and imaginative intelligences rank just as high as his scholarly intelligence. Draygun has a constant thirst to learn and expand his own awareness, to know why things work the way they do. This includes an interest in other cultures and countries in an effort to have a global consciousness of understanding.
Powers:
Not in any particular order, electromagnetic control, legendary magical abilities, telekinesis, and shapechanging. Draygun's advanced species type allows him to alter his physical appearance and structure at will. He can be anything that he takes the DNA of (blood) or sees and studies in epic detail. Inanimate objects are simple for him, but living creatures require a blueprint of the animal in order to emulate it. This blueprint can be (as mentioned) DNA or an exceptional understanding of its anatomy. Throughout any transformation, Draygun's intelligence remains intact, allowing him to be the same individual as a flea or a mighty dragon. When he changes form, his body's anatomical structure breaks down in a viscous plasomorphic liquid (which for him is a blood coloured quicksilver). Draygun can easily alter his height, skin colour, body build, and any other anatomical detail. In addition to his body's physical strength, Draygun can bolster this with his telekinesis, relying on his divinely blessed and vast reserves of power and stamina.
Draygun's electromagnetic control is what he's often known for; lightning. This power is rooted from an extremely efficient electricity generating organ in his body that is situated alongside his spine from neck to tail. It generates enough current and electricity that much of it is excessive for his body and he can use it as a weapon or tool to weld or kill. He sometimes refers to it as 'flesh lightning.' With this power, he can erect electromagnetic fields with the nerves in his body to attract or repel metals as well as give out shocks at a distance of up to twenty feet without magical enhancement. Draygun oftentimes amplifies the force of his electrical attacks through magic or by collecting static electricity from the atmosphere. He can throw, contort, and bellow lightning to do away with foes and their magical wards.
Weapons:
Draygun forged a rider's blade for himself by the name of Kveykva (meaning lightning in the ancient language). The 28.8 pound starmetal sword is a double edged hand-and-a-half type with a shimmering (reminiscent of lightning) iridescent emerald straight blade with a gently sloped point. As it was forged in part by magic, it is a magical object that is designed to remain undamaged from extreme force and corrosion.
Beyond weapons of force, Draygun has an arsenal of tools to quell the might of mortals. Foremost is the Demigod's shapechanging powers (reviewed above). Dray may weaponize this ability in any means he would like for offense or defense. His divine magical powers go unmatched in the mortal world, able wield vast amounts of energy that would shred any mortal's body or generate such spells and charms as to create miracles. In offensive form, his magic is useful to a scale of battling ancient Shades. His magic also allows him to amplify his telekinetic and telelectric powers.
Skill and talents:
Draygun is skilled and quite talented with a vast variety of things. After six and a half thousand years, he's experienced and perfected studies and practices from botany to arithmetic, sporting to astronomy. Although not many things are new to him, he enjoys dancing, art, singing, playing musical instruments, horseback riding, teaching, and flying.
Ancestry:
Kamoroko, Father of Dragons. The Deity is responsible for many things in the known world, such as wind and flight, fire, magic, as well as superintending matters of creation, justice, and the natural life, death, and rebirth cycles of existance. Most sacred natural elements can be attributed to Kamoroko, as well as new beginnings and newborns. Draygun's mother, Adnli Yram Remyar was a draconian High Priestess of world renowned magical and healing capabilities. Although she was mortal, she gave her son all the current abilities he has now, abilities that are amplified by his divinity.
Family & loved one:
Draygun shares the title Demigod with another, his slightly younger brother; Erador. Erador unites his dragon kin under his not only given divine right to rule as King of the Dragons, but his earned right to rule. They've been Rider and drake ever since the emerald dragon hatched all those millennia ago. Draygun, in respect to his father responsibilities, gave birth to his son, Evosias Nollux. Draygun's longstanding mate and lifelong friend has been Sovereign Erindor of the Naran Empire. Together they sired Evosias, but are currently split. Evosias' surname is Nollux because Erindor forced Draygun to have Evo adopted by a suitable family to help protect his political image. Draygun trained Evosias since the age of seven to be a Rider, and this has brought the separated son and father quite close since. As far as the epic love story between the Demigod and Erindor, the future may hold a reunion of the two legendary draconians' hearts.
Character Name: Erador Rodnire Remyar, Demigod and King of Dragons
Gender: Male
Rank: Demigod, King of Dragons
Race: Demigod. Purebred Light Dragon
Age: Six to seven millenia years
Rider: Draygun Salohcin Remyar (see above)
Personality: Noble, serious most of the time, but has a vivaciously playful side. Outstandingly confident, wise, shows great mercy at times. Harbors an extremely passioned anger, will do anything to get the job done, and quickly.
Physical Appearance: Erador's every scale seems to be like windows to another world. Each verdant scale was seemingly as deep and as clear as a mountain lake. They reflected incoming light, making Erador appear as a giant ninety foot mirror, and showered the walls with the emerald light. His gargantuan verdant wings spanned nearly the entire hall's width at full extension. Each of his four legs were wrapped with sinewy muscles that commanded power. To compliment his powerful limbs, each had five talons the size of a paladin's shield, and each talon appeared to be giving off a pleasant, but faint light. They were of a slight blackish colour, and serrated on the inside curve. His build was like that of a greyhound, with a wing muscled chest, gracefully and powerfully sloping to a thin abdomen. From here his tail undulates around his body like a giant green snake. Erador's remarkable eyes amplify his gaze by his bioluminescing clear-cut malachite eyes.
Height: 20 feet at the shoulder
Wingspan: 175 feet
Length: 91 feet
Weight: 104.4 (95 metric tons)
Powers: Power of Light (including hyperflight, or the ability to distort space time to bring two pieces of the universe together by forcing the fabric of reality), oxyhydrogen flaming breath, reaches temperatures of 7500 degrees F, or 4149 degrees C, hot enough to melt tungsten; the hottest melting metal known to mankind. As a magical creature, Erador has the ability to transfer vast amounts of magical energy to another such as his Rider, Draygun.
While his kin possess an ultra efficient metabolic and motor system that converts chemical energy into electrical energy for movement, Erador as the son of Kamoroko was blessed with a similar but much more potent energy source. While his primary metabolism is still governed by the ECIAS (a highly complex trio of organs that convert chemical energy into electrical energy by the means of enzymatic biofuel cells and electrocytes) he has the divine adaptation of being able to generate pure energy from matter itself through matter/antimatter annihilation. Given his internal body volume (or overall size) Erador is estimated to be able to generate 900 thousand horsepower (671.2 megawatts) at peak with his biofuel cells. This is useful for nimble movement and flight. With the use of the electrical power from his biofuel cells, Erador is able to use his innate magic to generate a consistent small supply of antimatter or store up to 100 kilograms in a specialized electromagnetic organ. With an effective yield of 1E16 Joules per Kilogram of energy available from the annihilation, Erador can harness the energy from the reaction with perfect efficiency. His maximum reaction at one time has been up to 100 kilograms of matter with 100 kilograms of antimatter for a total maximum output of 1E18 Joules (1000 quadrillion Joules), 239 megatons of TNT (almost 5 times the value of the largest thermonuclear device detonated on Earth; Tsar Bomba) or 1.341E15 horsepower (1.341 thousand billion horsepower). Sustained matter and antimatter reaction energy production (RMS) has been rated at 0.00003kg/second or 3E10 Joules (40.23 million horsepower). Maximum sustained matter and antimatter reaction energy production (RMS) rated at 0.001kg/second or 1E13 Joules (1.341 ten thousand million horsepower).
This inconceivably immense power can be harnessed primarily in the form of magic. While Erador is unable to actively weave spells, he is imbued with magnificent energetic constructs that feed off the sun like physical energy of his being to reinforce his body. This means that while draconian physiology is already adapted to strengthen their bones and body tissues to endure mechanical loads several times that of high strength steel, Erador's innate magic can reinforce these structures to repel any number of physical injury up to the total energy output of his body (1000 quadrillion joules). Erador's internal power feeds and supplements his motor tissues as well. In concert with the aforementioned reinforcement, Erador can perform unparalleled feats of strength.
Feats of strength and self preservation aside, this energy is also free to be used as a varying number of breath attacks. Erador can supplement his already potent oxyhydrogen flaming breath with up to the total sum of his energy output (1E18 Joules). While he has the means to do so, it would be lethal even to Erador to expel that amount of energy at one time as he wouldn't have sufficient fuel to generate enough power to reinforce his body tissues from the resulting 239 megaton blast. For comparison, that is almost five times the yield of the largest thermonuclear device, Tsar Bomba, detonated on Earth by the USSR on October 30, 1961. The fireball was 5 miles in diameter with a cloud height exceeding 40 miles. Seismic waves reached a maximum of 5.25 on the Richter scale and could still be measured after their third passage through the earth.
For the sake of simplicity, lets just say he can produce steady barrages of directed energy capable of kilotons of TNT equivalent yield with a peak of a 50 megaton blast at relatively close range (3 miles).
Strengths: Extreme physical prowess inherent to all dragons, possessing an ultra efficient muscular system, respiratory system, cardiovascular system, and digestive system. Like all dragons, Erador's motor impulses are multiplied many times in strength by a bioelectric neural amplification perispinalis organ complex (think of electric eels).
Erador is a natural born leader, wielding his authority gently, harshly, diplomaticly, bluntly, and intellegently. He's an exceptional hunter and flyer, and is experienced in evasive, combative, defensive, offensive, and high speed (supersonic) flight. Erador is an avid reader, as well as a well voiced and canny orator. He holds love for all.
Weaknesses: Nearly none. He is a divine magical creature in its purest form. Erador's body is reinforced with extraordinary spells that fuel from an outrageously potent power source. Only the most cataclysmic physical force may injure his body but he his still susceptible to magic canny enough to thwart his wards and attack his wing membranes, eyes, and abdomen.
Weapons: Oxyhydrogen flaming breath, hyperflight, might, claws, and teeth.
Hobbies: Erador enjoys writing and reading quite a lot. His interest in literature has given him considerable enlightenment from the classics to current times. Most of his written word lies in poetry, whilst speeches, complex diplomatic documents, and historical documentation make up the final sections of his work. Other hobbies include hunting, sun basking, and care giving (he's rather fond of hatchlings).
