Dragon |
Name: Bai Shoushan (??)
Gender: Male
*Size/Shoulder/Length: small 8'3" head / 22' head to tail
Colors: Piebald White Tiger, body bright white with strong black thin striping interrupted by bright white patches; all floof and horns hooves black; feathers and inner horns deeply red edged with nearly black red; eyes faceted multicolored
Features: Dragontaur Mutt as shown, with wing arms and very very long tail
Powers: Wingless Flight, without the normal form including full sized flight wings, these dragons with their powerful psionics and magic they don't actually need to flap, merely think about being in the air and off they go; Shoushan is delightfully strong and flexible in the air, trotting along or soaring like a ribbon alike
Verbal Speech, Shoushan's voice is quiet, reserved, but with a vast vocabulary thanks to growing up around so many different species on Planet Twenty
Shapeshifting - Taur as shown above, Quad which moves his torso arms to become short wings on a four-legged low to the ground form, Faun as a large somewhat burlier biped, and Anthropomorphized where he loses the second ground legs but keeps pretty much everything else; all these still look the same in coloration and general appearance, and range from 8'3" at head as shown, to 6' s Quad, 7' head Faun, and 6'7" head anthro, however as below all sizes are flexible. Though some of his kin might be able to force themselves into skin-human or odder shapes, he tends to stick with what he knows will be more acceptable here on this fur-centric world, often walking with Fadhila on two hoofed feet and then skittering into the air in a mess of limbs and tails
*Size Shifting, He's just a touch smaller than his caretaker and sometimes that does mean he wants to puff up a little and be the big spoon (not that they spoon... not yet anyway). He can adjust his overall size including weight and mass stunningly well, perhaps even better than his ability at shapeshifting, from his normal size down to around 3' at the head, and up to 12' at the head in any of his forms, in other words he can easily meet the eye of a giraffe or elephant - not just their Kin form - or get down on the level of the meerkat kin and virtually everyone in between. He does this regularly and enjoys finding a nice warm nook and slinking his way into it to avoid intrusive visitors
Immortality, as many of the Zekirans and even some of the Kin here are, he is immortal and will enjoy a very long life indeed on the plains, or up into the mountains, or perhaps even on other worlds, eventually. He has listened to the story that Fadhila told of her adventures at the Ball, and is quite likely to want to attend something like that, but he has all the time in the world, all the worlds
Assisted Firebreath, while others in his group may have the ability to produce their own flame or gust or whatnot, his must be assisted by chewing firestone, and he's definitely not going to be doing that any time soon. He could, he's done it in the past just to make sure of what was needed, but found the taste terrible, and the inelegance offputting. If actively required, say during an invasion or a war breaking out between the nearby Kin types, he might pick up and help out with it as best he can, but he will not really be practicing enough to make a difference

Other Info: Reclusive, Shoushan definitely enjoys his alone time, or moments with only Fadhila more than being out and about with many others. He will attend group meetings and events, but almost immediately returns to their quarters and listens to Fadhila's gentle songs. If he is for some reason angered or sparked to fear, he calms down slowly and must be watched for any rash actions, because like many in his group he is more courageous than careful at those times. He will definitely go out with Fadhila to assist when there are those Kin-based spats or injuries in the field, since he has added hands and can even become large enough to fly with several people on his long back, and makes sure that everything will be okay before returning once more to his sedate and observant self watching from afar.
Requires: Non-bonding Caretaker; Fadhila was ready to help raise more offspring, but wasn't exactly interested in actually bearing them herself just yet, not so soon after the Ball. Somehow she heard tell of this exotic group and put in for the option, and she has not regretted this decision at all. |
