story (will be coming, there's existing stuff sorta on the grock page)
Name: Howe Nerano "it's HOW, not HOWIE"
Gender: Male
Size/Shoulder/Length: large 14' s / l / ' ws; bipedal form stands 6'5" at head plus ears (he keeps his other features because why not, right?) and he likes to think of himself as quite the handsome catch (he is, but good luck catching him)
Colors: jade green body with rich violet underbelly and feet; wingsails violet; fluff sparkly white with stray violet tints; eyes blue
Features: Avengean Piralan + Fire Chyrith, as shown
Powers: Winged Flight while he sports them only when needing to actually fly (thus the image above shows an in-between state of shifting) Howe still pulls them out to get around on appropriate worlds - where he won't be shot down for food in other words. He was instructed in a rudamentary form by his sire to shift them into flight-sized wings, but it was actually Arick's bond Oester that taught him how to fly.
Shapeshift: Humanoid masterfully able to shift between bipedal and draconic forms, though unlike his parents he still prefers prowling around on all fours and only grudgingly will put clothes on to dress up properly...
Communication
While he can speak it's in a gruff, low growly tone to anyone other than the Galactirock crew and their associated friends and dragons. To them he has a resonant and clear speaking tone, still a bit scary when he wants to be; he is a strong telepath, however, and while Sideshow isn't much of a conversationalist or telepath, Ija is, so he spends some time chatting with her and learning more about the history of their part of the multiverse
Fire Power
and a lot of it, really nuff said. He produces a lot of fire, and controls it with ease
Parentage: Piralan Aduri Nerano and Fire Chyrith Stake
Origin: Fur and Feathers Frenzy Redux 7.10.22 lines by Dray, colors by Phe
Other Info: While he does clearly enjoy hanging out with Sideshow and the rest of this weird musical team, he definitely likes his private time. As grumpy and visibly intimidating as his bond, Howe tends to read the room and figure out whether his 'skills' are needed. Those skills include threats, intimidation, distraction, and and a magnificently crafted - entirely fake - temper tantrum. All of which puts many Vocorr into a state of panic, which is exactly how he wants them. Howe is not 'evil' or even particularly 'mean' but he can ham it up and performs as though he is both of those things, all the while it's done purely so that the others can get away with whatever 'that shouldn't be illegal and yet' deeds they have going. His favorite trick is to go somewhere with them in his humanoid guise, hardly out of place among this group's bipedal folk, and 'monster out' if needed 'just offscreen' enough that their enemies or folks watching don't realize it's also him.
