Powers Luck - Yes, it was luck that brought Denice back into the Human fold, shortly before she was to undergo the full Combine Conversion that would have permanently embedded control chips in her brain, and gutted most of her body's organs. But was she lucky before then, or after? Well, she's able to avoid - if narrowly - virtually any real life or death finality, so maybe it doesn't matter.
^Grease Monkey - She did have some amount of skill downloads inserted into her brain, a part of her 'training' that she'd rather forget at least the 'being trained' part. She can put together or take apart nearly any non-computerized mechanical object, including guns, tools, vehicles, or industrial machines. Clearly she was going to be part of a repair crew for the Combine. Now, she can put that to use for the Rookery.

Story

Dragon

Name: Combo Breaker
Gender: Female
Size/Shoulder/Length: Medium-Small (very small for breed) 6' +Long
Colors: Denim and Royal blue with faint mottling, lighter and brighter on neck and back, with sky blue socks, wingsails cloudy violet to pale blue, eyes bright green, horns white
Features: Whiptail dragon, four pawed feet, two single-fingered wings with transparent sails, skin is extremely fine scales; head is boxy with a pair of back swept 2-point horns; body is extremely narrow and sinuous, very long, with an incredibly powerful tail that's at least as long as nose-to-rump; can smash with it, but risks damage, wingsails are easily damaged
Powers: Winged Flight, though Combo is able to fly she generally sticks to the ground with her human friend, wings tucked down, and head forward. She can lift up to three human-sized people, or objects about that weight, though strains if she has to carry or lift more. She can drag or pull items that are on wheels however, nearly interminably, and if she doesn't need to actively heft them around, she does use her wings for extra boosts.
Communication, while most Whiptails are 'reasonably intelligent' akin to parrots, Combo is about as smart as a crow or raven, and stubborn to boot, so as she's learned words in both Combine and English she only responds to cues from Denice. She hears and understands from other sources... she just doesn't care.
Headbutts; Apparently her skull and horns are exceptionally hard and of use to bust down doors or thin walls easily.
Parentage: Unknown, is unrelated to the other Whiptails at the Rookery
Origin: Adopted from and species by DragonsAndVideoGames on Deviantart
Other Info: Denice and Combo do make a terrific team, with Denice taking instruction from someone else, and forwarding her needs to the dragon who obeys completely. They can and have been tasked to occasionally spy on the Combine, and since they both know how to listen to chatter on the radios those soldiers keep on them, can escape notice or danger easily before they get caught. They're the Rookery's "in" at times, to infiltrate.
