Eyebbi, Goose? kin


Name: Eyebbi
Race: 'goose', yeah sure, he seems at least half secretary bird but that's in the legs
Gender: male
Appearance: long legged and tall posture, neck is much longer than shown as they are goose-based; has 2 fingers and a thumb under wing wrist so has the ability to manipulate as well as fly; around 6' tall but a quarter of that is neck
Personality: is definitely a goose in most ways, highly territorial and somewhat dangerous if angered

Eyebbi is able to use telekinesis at close range, around 20 meters in a sphere around himself, and within that area he can sense, manipulate, lift, or suppress the sounds of movement in every single way. He doesn't need his wings to fly, he's fully able to levitate and zip around even faster than his flapping. If it's not connected to the ground physically, he can lift it. As long as the entire object is within his sphere of influence, he is on it. Vehicle, people, gear and loot, dragon, rocks, supplies, you name it. He can use this power to add to his physical presence such as ground-stamping feet or wing snap attacks, massively amplifying any physical effects to knock things down, break through barriers, and break bones at a distance. He has modest close range empathy and limited range telepathy, able to connect to other telepathic minds up to about 1km, and can be sensed by others at up to 10 miles

He needs only his own beak, wings, and feet to fight or hunt, and he is able to stealthily move around even in brittle leaf litter or high grass, so he enjoys actively finding small prey and just bashing the hell out of it with his feet, and failing killing it then, he boosts his effect and it's roadkill

"Go ahead, try it."

"You know I can, don't tempt me," Eyebbi shot back.

"Do it," Ash insisted, the grin on his long muzzle let a teensy bit of smoke out from the side.

"Fine then, get down and curl up." The bird kin said, as Burnedwings gave a chuckle.

They arranged themselves into a kind of spiral pile, the dragon was quite massive and the bird kin merely a bright speck against his body. Ash very well could have just ... constricted and crushed Eyebbi, but was more curious than cruel. It was when the bird began to fire up his own power, that the dragon's eyes snapped open widely.

"Stay in a curl!" Eyebbi yelled. And surprisingly, the dragon did just that. He heard the kin's grunt of effort, but then... They lifted into the air. Just outright upwards, and the curled dragon remained curled thanks purely to Eyebbi's power keeping him that way. He was unable to expand even a little, lift his wing, or move his tail.

While it was obviously a little larger than his typical lifting task, Eyebbi met that grinning dragon's eye with his own beaked smirk.

"I told you I could, you should believe me..." Eyebbi muttered. He let the dragon loose and they both began flying rather than falling. "So what do you want to go steal, you gigantic klepto..."

Dragon

Name: Burnedwings aka Ash
Gender: Male
Size/Shoulder/Length: large (chonker), 16' s / 80' l / 160' ws
Colors: ash-grey body, bright and crimson shaded wingsails with grey markings, spines bright red, eyes bright green, claws dark grey
Features: 'Fire Dragon' pretty typical of a western-styled dragon with 4 legs having very sharp claws, two leathery wings with 3 visible fingers and one long curved wrist claw (obviously wingsails connect at body but not shown), extremely sturdy body (that's chonker, that's hefty chonker to you), head is narrow and triangular, with massive neck and keel for those big wings; triangular dorsal fins from head to tail tip
Powers: Winged Flight, a dragon this big taking flight is dangerous and impressive to watch, but more so when he lands. Able to take down prey that equates to 'dinosaur huge' in one massive pounce, he is an apex predator to say the very least. He can lift that dinosaur carcass and plop it down wherever he needs to, including on top of villages he doesn't like
Telepathy and Verbal Speech, casually intrusive with his mind, which feels quite a bit like standing over a hot stove with all burners going, he's able to sense and communicate with any intelligent being within sight; his voice is booming, deep and low, and can be felt more than heard, particularly by large creatures such as elephant-kin and whales...
Firebreath, if there's one thing this dragon's breed was good at, it's breathing fire. Burnedwings, or "ash" as he prefers these days (it's obvious he has wings, no? yes?) produces a stingingly hot and remarkably precise line of fire that he can blast up to 2km with an accuracy within about 10 meters of where he's looking, usually from the sky but sometimes he does just burn a laser-like line across the valley or wherever. This will instantly crisp-fry any insects within about a meter of it, as the beam itself is around 2 meters wide (he's a big boi with a big mouth shh don't tell him I said that), and burns easily flammable items and gasses on contact, though for any larger piece of landscape like trees or large shrubs it will catch flame but not explode unless it's got sap that does exactly that. He can use this to hunt, but not by directly hitting things - he likes to start a panic among a herd, cutting half a dozen off from a hundred and scooping whatever fleeing beasts there are right up with his big paws. His fire cools almost instantly, though it can certainly set things ablaze that will burn naturally. It does leave a grey ash behind, even in mid-air, his flame crisps particles in the air and they drift downwards with the wind
Parentage: none known, progenitor, unknown whether any others in this line ever made it to the modern era
Origin: Blue Mountain Aurie / Asha's giveaway on Nexus
Other Info: * note that I never got this dragon paged back in the mid-00s and have taken a little bit of liberty because I don't need truly 'evil' dragons anywhere, sorry, he's had to mellow out a little... he's not 'nice' by any stretch. He does have this caretaker, not a bond, no no absolutely not a bond, certainly not. >_> not. a bond. no really.
