Powers Sound-Based Mind / Crowd Control; When Pearl speaks, people listen. They actually kind of go into a daze when she wants them to, or focus on something in particular of her whim. Far from being just 'a good public speaker' though, she is exerting her Vortal power over anywhere between one and 60 people, depending on their state of mood and own mental abilities. She must keep talking or singing, even humming a tune works just fine. People under her sway will remember doing whatever they did, but not why or what might have provoked them. This effect lasts a few minutes longer than she keeps the power going, so she's often long gone by the time people realize she's had them ... like, build a house or form a human chain to rescue someone...
Shiny and Beautiful Distraction; yes, she absolutely is that. And with a dragon like Kizi by her side, it's hard to take your eyes off of her. She uses this to her advantage, of course, but then does sometimes have to resort to telling people to leave her be, with her other power. Any creature that has eyes or visual components to its sensory arrangement (and is not 'not' a creature, so an intelligent robot is a creature, a camera or sensor array is not) will fall prey to effectively being so curious and enamored that they just Cannot Look Away. She's had to become more and more bold, which is scary, because Striders and Gunships are 'creatures with visual sensors' too...

Story

Dragon

Name: Kizillik Houtalli (Kizi) "Glow"
Gender: Male
Size/Shoulder/Length: Small 7' s / 30' l / 35' ws plus extra smaller
Colors: Orange base fur, black and pale grey-white stripes on limbs, shoulder, tail, and face; very pink tinsel trim; black belly scales, hind hooves, and wing fingers; white horns; blue-violet eyes; burning tinsel white silver wings
Features: feline deer holiday dragon, four legs with incredibly active trim, hoof hind, very long claw fore; furry skin; many wings, main are combined furry arm, visible single finger with claw, webbing under, and large flight feathers on back, all burning, also added feather wings under main, and two pairs on end of tail; back of head, neck, dorsal ridge, and down tail, tail tuft; horn foreward pointing wedge, face is boxy with 'mustache' tendrils, bling is present, all feathers visibly shine and burn
Powers: Winged Flight, a slow but steady flier, with occasional bursts of insane speed, able to carry perhaps three riders but not much more, mostly due to wings.
Cheer, Verbal Speech; all of the Houtalli breed speak verbally, and while many don't choose to talk a lot, Kizi ... does. He likes to parrot other people, and is pretty good at it. He isn't as brainy as some, so his mastery over any given language is limited, but he can speak many Draconic phrases, English, and some Zekiran.
Fire Control, Light Control; as should be obvious by looking at him, Kizi is... bright. Very bright. This image doesn't do him justice, he is just positively glowing all the time. He can dim this light but chooses not to, and can illuminate a reasonably large dark space with ease (such as an underground parking garage, the entirety of a skyscraper's rooftop, a small outdoor music venue) and can change the colors and patterns of both light and fire. His fire isn't deadly in any way, of course - it can be warm, or even hot, but it will only harm those who really deserve it (see Order Control). While he could probably breathe fire, he really thinks he has better things to do with his mouth. He can use his light power to blind people or send distress signals far into the sky, but prefers to do fireworks and lightshows at concerts instead.
Limited Shapeshift (feline), Kizi can change into a more feline creature, but isn't really that great at it, so he will let this power fade over time.
Order Control, Spirit Force; Many of his kin are sticks in the mud, where it concerns 'order'. Though his human companion is certainly 'chaotic', he takes his duties as an order controller a little differently than others. He wants to make sure that everyone gets a fair treatment, and those who interrupt that kind of thing are absolutely and officially the Bad Guys. He's spoken to Pearl's dad about Vocorr, and to the Color Guard about those nasty Combine people? Those are the kind of 'order' that needs to be removed. Plus, his spirit is positively burning, just like his body, and any Vortal beings around will immediately know he's in the area, thus he can use this as a signal to spirit realm creatures that he's putting the hurt on some bad guys.
Immortality; though not necessarily difficult to hurt, he can take damage and must heal it, but Kizi will always recover, and never gets ill or suffers from signs of aging in any way. He's definitely around for the long term.
Parentage: Vid'amalom Houten and Criao Chxalli, with plenty of relatives including a couple at the Rookery.
Origin: 2009 Winter Gather by me, unpaged or abandoned
Other Info: He has faint memories of 'somewhere else', but that place vanished, and now he has a permanent friend and a good job, with goals to meet. He will not leave Pearl, and knows she won't leave him either.
