Chapter #3Your Breed... by: Shalion   A physical sort, you like doing things with your claws and have been fond of wrestling and play-fighting since an early age. But your brawn doesn't make you a bad fellow. What's the fun if your opponent's dead after you've soundly beaten them? Better that they are alive to fight again another day. All in good sport.
Now for the fun part. What breed of dragon are you?
The Regal Bronze: One of the largest casts of dragon, you tower over your opponents on the field of battle and have the force of well toned muscle behind each of your massive blows. You are called regal for your long legs and tall stature, you carry your head high and proud when you grace the land with your presence. Your kind are mortal enemies of Deathwings (but then again, who isn't?). Your brawn and their speed are evenly matched. While it isn't necessarily truth, the appearance of battling the Deathwings has given your kind a vaguely chivalrous reputation, a reputation that many individuals chose to uphold on their own. Your tail ends in a serrated arrow-head that is capable of slicing through fully grown trees and of course, your hide comes in only one color, a luminous bronze.
The Geminate Drake: They say that two is better than one and this is a truth with which you are intimately familiar. As a Geminate drake, you have never had to worry about being alone because, as with all members of your breed, you were born as a twin. Geminate drakes reproduce in twos, no more, no less and each set of twins is intimately linked throughout their lives. The depth of the connection is such that Geminate twins are often referred to as a singular being and the custom is to have a single name consisting of two parts for each pair of drakes (for instance, a set of twins might be named Mal’Drak with one twin being named Mal and the other named Drak). Pairs of Geminate drakes are usually inseparable; they hunt together, sleep together, live together and usually take mates together. All of this is due to a strong mental link between each dragon, the strength of the link varies from pair to pair ranging from the simple sending and receiving of messages to merger on the extent that it seems that there is a single entity occupying two bodies. Sibling rivalry is rare to the point of extinction, but famous cases have emerged in history; always it has ended in tragedy. Geminate drakes can typically be found roosting in mountain ranges, the dryer the clime, the better. As for size, the typical drake tends to be on the large size, dwarfing land bound beasts and mortals. While not exceedingly strong or fast or possessing fiery breath of significant note, your strongest strength lies in your constant companion and your ability to fight as the ultimate tag-team.
The Earth-Render: You are a unique class of dragon. Rather than living in high mountain lairs, your kind prefer to burrow into the earth. That doesn't mean you don't share the same lust for treasure and glory as your fellow dragons however! Normal size for a dragon, your wings are shaped to allow you to move through the earth with ease, but makes your slower and clumsier in the air compared to others. Your knowledge of the deep places gives you special advantages, however. Your hide is tougher than usual and more heat resistant. It is even said that your kind can cause pits to suddenly open in the earth, change the foundations of the rock even alter the course of underground water. You hide has a pebbly texture and comes in various shades of brown from clay to light green. Your head is smooth and no spur or weapon lays at the end of your tail, but your large fore claws are good for more than just shoveling earth. | Members who added to this interactive story also contributed to these: |
