Powers Circle of Thorns Magic - everything from speaking to the dead, summoning and binding demons and undead, to causing minor madness, innate spell casting, though many offensive spells require a focus such as a spirit thorn dagger or a crafted wand or staff (he has all of those things)
Mostly Defensive / Warding - in addition to the above, longer-term ritual magic that allows him to protect against incursions or being noticed, and quicker spells that protect his allies in the field from single-use health benefits to hour-long increases to dexterity and defense
Portal Use and Creation - can move between spaces innately though for only short distances during combat, however is able to enchant any doorway, archway, or other 'door-shaped' item to allow travel to any specific location he's been to before at any distance; he can tune these dooways to only work for people he wants, excluding specifics, or to stop working after a certain time or quantity of uses; he has a personal portal located in his dorm that connects to several locations - one to his folks place on Twoarth, another to Rita's Paragon City home, and also to the North Aperture facility on the Rookery. This portal must be set before hand to a destination; also of note, Gypsum is able to understand the runes and sigils that all portals seem to have on them, and know where they lead or who made them.

Dragon

Name: Emerald
Gender: Female
Size/Shoulder/Length: 11'
Colors: Body mainly pale-green tinted white, belly medium soft grey, armor minty seafoam green, wingsails medium green, neck fins minty seafoam, horns deep emerald green, claws, spines and fin dark grey, eyes brilliant green
Features: Rainwing Hybrid, however clearly not the same gene pool as many others in the Rookery, with a stronger and bulkier frame and heavier wings; also lacks a prehensile tail, and with those armor bits and spikes may very well have a lot of Icewing in her; note well too that she doesn't have color shifting scales
Powers: Winged Flight, Emerald is quite strong in the air, though she is equally swift slinking through water, or pacing through a ruin. She loves caves and exploring unusual places, so while she's not 'the' best at any given terrain or speed setting, she's good to go for whatever area needs exploring.
Communication, Emerald has a high degree of Vortal sense, and can detect her human (...?) friend from quite a way off. Her voice is sharp, edged, though not loud, and she speaks very clearly in numerous draconic and human (and alien) tongues, as well as seeming to have picked up a bit of Circle magic? She sees ghosts, oh wait, they're actually there.
Fierce Bite and Claw, those spikes, fangs, and heavy claws aren't just for show. Although her paw claws aren't as big and sharp as an Icewing's, her wing fingers more than make up for it, and she can use those to climb sheer rock or ice surfaces. Her tail can bash the snot out of things, and she does have to be careful about where she puts it when she's relaxing, as it is remarkably sharp and can cause casual damage to the surroundings.
Environmental Tolerance, because she's some form of hybrid, Emerald is suited to life in numerous different climates and biomes. From fertile temperate forests, to icy plains and snowy mountains, to moist bayou, to burning desert sands... She's got it covered, and has yet to even notice that there's a difference. She does notice when there are more bugs than usual, that's about it.
Parentage: Unknown, with clear Ice and Rainwing features, but it's possible she's more of a mutt than that.
Origin: adopted from QueenOfDragonFire on BronzeHalo base on Deviantart
Other Info: This lovely dragoness is graceful and deadly in equal measure. She enjoys company, but is fickle about how long to hang around or just who should be near her. Some folks seem to walk on eggshells around her, and that suits her just fine. She likes it when people are nervous.
