Name: Irocor (EE row core)
Gender: Male, he/him, pan
Age: around 16 (~18 after Gelgelan arrival to Dragondeep)

Fur: Skin, off-white shaded, with clumps of longer shaggier fur in same shade as hair
Marking color: dark red
Ears: shaggy, marked
Face markings: around back of neck, over backs of ears and head, up to points on cheeks
Hair is medium length and tied back, pale gunmetal with marking-color tips.
Eyes: dark red with hauntingly yellow sclera
Horns: an added feature that doesn't generally bode well for hiding the fact that he's not just a rabbit, tipped in dark red, slightly darker than skin
Clothing rarely worn, as he feels it 'slows him down'...; he does have clothing, generally lightweight robes or shorts in dark blue.
Height: 5'7" and around 6'4" at the tops of the horns; alt shape is a hare with those same horns that is around 2'4", or twice the size of a normal hare (he's lanky and shaggy, not a 'bunny')

Species: Wyldkin Rabbit Shifter Gelgelan Hybrid
Genetic History: grandmother (father's side) Usagi, grandfather (father's side) Human, otherwise Wyldkin*
Family: after arrival to the realm of Dragondeep, one of Sean and Sapadt's sons had several 'unofficial' partners, generally with 'local' human and wyldkin ladies, including rabbit kin *and those he thought were rabbit kin...
Their parents have drifted apart, if they were ever 'together', and he has a twin sister (Oriroc) who is exhibiting similar features, unsurprisingly

Born near Thohauxa on the Gelgelan Eminence, though raised on a large animal ranch on the mainland since their mother moved around a bit; and currently are in the northern Everchange Wood for ... reasons. Whether they will be able to remain there is unlikely; though they're part and parcel with the Shifters of the area, dragons from offworld are absolutely not the kind of thing that should be around these parts. Local dragons would tear them apart. While that thought does thrill him a little, he's never met a local dragon, his sister is sure that there's a home near the Gelgelan island...

His personality tends to run selfish and slightly cruel, but generally he's not a terrible person. He's a bit more impulsive and enjoys the chaos that being a Shifter brings, than his sister or even his mother. But he does know when to stop, mostly just after Oriroc smacks him upside his head.

Meiker / Demon Creator

Magic he tends to use most frequently is Earth-based, psionics that allow him to burrow quickly through loose dirt or sand to emerge within 500 meters without having to stop or breathe. He can also use this power to move through more solid structures of stone, brick, or other such materials, but they must be less than 3 meters thick - so he might be able to phase through a simple stone homestead wall, but definitely have trouble with a larger keep wall or reinforced castle. Also he cannot move through metals (except natural ore) or glass, and has claimed he can find crystal deposits 'because they scratch him on the way through'. Where this power came from is unclear, as their mother is definitely not an Earth mage. However lagomorphs are burrowers, so there's that.

*Shifter traits: dad didn't realize that the 'rabbit' kin he hooked up with was very much a shifter, with the ability to turn into a large (3' shoulder) rabbit-like creature. It's possible that she had other shapes, because sometimes that creature has a long horn or even antlers. This is clearly demonstrated in Irocor's appearance, which she kind of wishes that her son would stop being so bold about it. In social situations where he's just shown up with weird features as a child, their mother has had to blow it off as 'I had an affair with a sheep kin'. People believe it, but only barely.

His favored weapon is his own body - since he is able to produce horns, heavy hoof hands and feet, or dangerous beak-like teeth, Irocor simply uses everything he's got on him to hunt and fight. He can bash with those horns quite well (leading his sister to call him 'hard headed'), and sustains no injury from hitting even stone with them.

 

"My sister and I are going to need some space," was what he said, he didn't need to say why. The why was obvious and standing behind both of them with their fan-like wings proudly up, their antlered heads peering curiously at their surroundings.

It was the defacto leader of this island that approached with care and confidence. Colart looked them over with a careful eye, squinted, and said, "what are you all hiding?" He didn't ask harshly, but he knew.

Irocor and Oriroc glanced at one another, with his sister pointedly staring at his horns, causing Irocor to slump just a little bit. There was no getting past the fact that he still forgot to tuck them away for this important meeting. Oriroc gently moved into her four-footed shape, and almost impulsively Irocor sprouted several additional sets of horns and spines, a long swishing tail with a barb on it (he'd been working on that one ever since bonding). He looked impressive! His sister looked faintly annoyed, good! That was how she always got anyway.

Their dragons weren't good at standing on two feet yet, but they did so. Irocor saw the faintest blink on Colart's handsome face, but to his credit the ship captain pulled his lips into a smirk and nodded, "well all right then, accommodations to suit, we've several building plans already in progress but where you want to set down is where we'll build for you."

They even had little mockups and models? It was fascinating, Irocor had never seen such things but realized they had to have someone who was a talented designer if these were already planned homes. They flew around the island, Irocor spotted a place that could fit a U shaped villa well suited to their needs. And off they went - while the builders were busy shaping and carving and stonecutting, Oriroc went out to find their mother and tell her about all of this, maybe she'd come home with the pair, but if not, she'd be able to keep her muzzle shut. Shifters were like that.

Nidus Asteri for Asandus-Imperial clutch

Dragon: Zoiros Diemicana-Pariyani (Meaning: Spirited [Greek])
Gender: Male
Size: 13' s / 46' l / 70' ws
Colors: Red overall, a smooth fresh-blood shade on the body with a soft white neck, belly, and undertail; wings are more mottled crimson red; floof is dark red with white tips; antlers bone, and claws silver grey; eyes blue
Features: Imperial / Asandus hybrid as shown, highly unusual wing format fusing with spines and webbing along back and tail; added floof on head, chin, neck, shoulders, and behind legs; head is deer like with large thick antlers, external ears, and added floof
Powers: Winged Flight - fiercely strong in short bursts, and can dodge in mid-air like a pro; will push himself to fly in bad conditions so that he is even better in calm winds; carries Irocor with confidence, and they make an incredibly good team even if it looks like the Usagi Kin has 'fallen off' don't worry, Zoiros will sweep around to catch him before he lands!
Teleportation and Sneak Attack - though Zoiros is able to only do short 200 meter teleports, he can keep this up for quite a few before needing to rest, and can take anything that's attached to him along. His Sneak Attack relies less on teleportation and more on his innate sneaky behavior, but he often is fast enough to vanish before someone turns to look at him!
Telepathy, Verbal Speech, Dread Pirate - Zoiros prefers to commune with his bond telepathically but anyone else merely gets words. Sometimes very biting words indeed, since he is able to shoot absolutely soul-rending insults and threats at anything that understands his speech
Asandus Shapeshifting (Human) - well human is hardly what he becomes, he's been mistaken for a demon in fact, mostly due to the colors. He and Irocor can wander the world on two feet or four, neither of them is particularly fussed about what they have to do to explore odd places. Zoiros definitely likes having thumbs, and relies on his bond to then take whatever they've found, bundle it up, and attach it to his furry shoulders when they need to leave
Piralan Body-Heat Control, Imperial Fire Breath, Imperial Elemental Magic - all of this relies on fire, and fire is his very, very strongest specialty. He loves to breathe fire, manipulate it, extinguish it if needed, whatever can be done with flames, Zoiros is all about it. He can snipe with a single long burst of fire at up to 1km, or fan an area below him 50 meters across at a wide cone. Also, interestingly, perhaps the combination of powers and bloodlines means he can cause fire to only damage specific things or people, and leave others entirely unharmed (if a bit warm)
Imperial Venomous Bite - His bite is at least as bad as his bark, a sharply painful venom that leaves bad wounds if it doesn't kill something outright
Asandus Functional Magic - he doesn't much play around with this, he's got what he needs, but it might pass along to offspring should he sire any
Parentage / Family: Shajahanth + Comitero
Origin: Nidus Asteri / art by Dragonflight
Other Info: Determined, Opportunistic - very much the eager one, always looking for an 'in', and once he finds it, he will not let it go. He would eagerly fight a local Dragondeep dragon for territory but at least his bond has very much forbidden him from that. It is a Bad Idea. FINE.
