Magical Skills or Profession: though he is definitely able to perform Earthblood magic such as sensing through vines and trees, or moving through deep snow or brittle leaves without making a sound or leaving a trace, he is not really well-versed in advanced magic. His staff has an enchantment allowing him to 'nest', planting it on the root of a large tree, or up in the canopy, it grows into a secure and snug bower that blends in seamlessly with whatever foliage is around it. He can extend this ("Fellowship") to other people when needed. He is not paid to wander the woods, but he does so out of the joy of wandering, and knows quite a bit about any given part of it. From the grass and mosses, the burrowing animals, birds, great trees, and even the caverns and rivers that flow through and under it. He is an exceptional wilderness guide.
Personality: Enjoyable but not particularly social, Clove admits that he could do best with an animal companion or at best temporary groups to wander with. He begins to feel uncomfortable if he's relied upon for interactions beyond 'let's get through this forest by evening'.

Events or History: though born and raised in a village community to the east, as a youth he left that area and started out on his own, crossing the plains, visiting many exotic locations, and finally returning to his old village to find it almost entirely different than he'd left it. So he went off again, without the ties that might have leashed him to the place as a child. At some point, he literally butted heads with a much bigger and scarier opponent than he bargained for, a creature of stone and crystal, that broke his antler - though Clove also knows he injured it badly enough that it likely won't get into a conflict with other elves or even humans again if it sees them. He would much prefer to have made friends with it, but that option obviously isn't available any longer.

Clove, an earthblood elf with antlers, stood far to the side, hidden in shadows and away from the crowd. He was used to keeping his interactions to a minimum. It was this that lured an elusive black hatchling to him. Her egg had been hidden as her mother had had a good idea of what was inside and so no-one had even noticed her hatching. Only the brief flashing of draconic eyes told Clove that her mother had seen the bond. "Veneda." Daine let him know privately. Not much later, a blue male sniffed the air around him, finding something of particular interest. He quickly followed the scent and ended up in front of Clove too. Though a bit confused about the elf in front, the blue wanted to stick close to the one behind. So he compromised and bonded the elf as well. "Locam." Cheas told the elf her son's name.

Dragon

Name: Veneda
Gender: female
Size/Shoulder/Length: medium 11'6" s / 50' l / 80' ws
Colors: gold horned black (!); body softly black, wingsails patterned darker black with graphite; gold horns; green eyes
Features: Lantessama-born Hathian, hip-heavy build with thicker legs and shorter neck than native born on Tris'hath, boxy face and larger clawed feet
Stats: Strength 2, Speed 4, Endurance 3, Agility 4, Health 2, Intelligence 5
Powers: Winged Flight, a good all-around flier, Veneda can be swift and silent as well as decent in an aerial fight. She doesn't like heavy lifting, so it's a good thing her elf bond is reasonably small and can hang on well with his strong legs when she's showing off
Communication, preferring telepathy over any verbal speech, however Veneda can speak the Hathian dragon tongue as well as the local draconic after learning it. She unerringly spots her bonds and pack, even from a very great distance
Lightning Breath, as a black dragon she's capable of producing a terrifying beam of raw electrical energy, as well as seeming to conjure more strikes nearby thanks to the sudden changes in ionization. She doesn't like hitting living things with this, but isn't above laying down a few smaller blasts to keep enemies or curious folk at bay
Parentage: Clutch 4: Blue Daine ° & Lavender-white Vilyarus
Origin: Lantessama Hathian Summer 2023
Other Info: Multibonded between the elf and another Hathian, Veneda is clearly capable of handling herself in many situations and enjoys interaction only when she's sure they're safe

Dragon

Name: Locam
Gender: male
Size/Shoulder/Length: Medium 12'3" s / 60' l / 90' ws
Colors: Silver horned blue; dusty blue body, wingsails denim and lighter blue mottling; silver armor, green eyes
Features: Lantessama-born Hathian, hip-heavy build with thicker legs and shorter neck than native born on Tris'hath, boxy face and larger clawed feet
Stats: Strength 3, Speed 6, Endurance 3, Agility 5, Health 2, Intelligence 6
Powers: Winged Flight, like a dart through the air, Locam checks up on all the landmarks and does sweeps of the areas they travel, and you'd hardly know he's been gone. He easily pursues Veneda when she teases and taunts him, and can definitely keep up long enough to catch her in flights... He will also enjoy swimming with Clove when they're in an area with deeper waters, finding that the elf is able to both swim and dive for long periods!
Communication, much more talkative than Veneda, though she definitely still responds to him he's usually chatting with Clove and will engage with others if they are leading a party through an area. He telepathically sounds like rushing water, with his voice booming and louder than you'd expect while conversing in draconic
Ice Breath, he enjoys all the ways to show off his skill with creating multiple shards of ice in a fan for short range hunting, to bigger colder blobs that immobilize prey (he really loves using that on fish, the ice bobs to the surface with them easily chewed out of it), as well as very long range snipes that can strike birds out of the sky; overall he more enjoys the ground chases and sticking prey to the ground with broad splats of ice
Parentage: Clutch 3: Green Cheas & Red Vios *
Origin: Lantessama Hathian Summer 2023
Other Info: Purposefully chose Veneda to actually bond to, but Clove is a nice enough fellow and provides a good third to their little pack
