Name: Setcher
Age: About 6 years, still relatively young in dragon terms
Hair: None
Eyes: Bright blue
Height: About... 6.5' at the shoulders, 7.5' at head
Weight: Unknown
Gender: Male
Species: Dragon, Electric Needleback
Occupation: Unmounted dragon...?
Voice: No actual speaking voice, however makes various noises that signify certain things.
Description: Setcher is an average-sized Electric Needleback dragon, about seven or eight feet tall on all fours, and between nine and ten on his haunches. Since he uses light reflecting off his scales for camoflouge, he can be a lot of different colors, but when his scales are flat and normal they are a very dark, dark blue, almost black. His wings are very triangular, which helps him to be able to manuever well, and the membranes are a bit lighter than his body. He has a thin white stripe from his nose to the base of his tail, as well as three horizontal stripes along his head. He is similar in body shape to the Night Fury, but with slightly longer legs and a ever-so-slightly narrower, longer head. He does not have tail wings like the night fury, but his tail is flattened the vertical way and he uses it like a rudder -- think eel. He has three toes and a thumb on each forepaw, four toes on his hindpaws. Along with the white stripe, he has several long row of thin, needle-like spikes running down his back. He can have them vertical, or he can snap then down so they basically fold flat against his skin and disappear.
Demeanor: Setcher has always been the type who doesn't despise company, but he usually ends up getting into fights one way or another regardless. He tends to keep to himself, though he's not a particularly depressed personality. He has no rider and stays away from the village for the most part, simply because he wants to avoid any sort of negative vonfrontation. Setcher, though he is a very skilled fighter and can be protective of things or others which he holds to be important, prefers leaving a battle than standing and facing it. He isn't so much afraid as annoyed by fighting. Don't think that will stop him from protecting others, though. He's a little overly possesive/defensive sometimes.
Abilities/Weapons: Has the ability to conduct eletrical currents and use them as projectile weapons or simple electricution attacks, can shift his scales from light to dark to camoflouge himself while he is moving in the sky. His back spines can be used defensively if his attacker tries to jump on him, but other than that they're not much good for attack.
Disadvantages: Emotions highly affect his ability to shift scale colors and camoflouge, so if he is scared or angry, he blows his cover easily. If he isn't careful with using the eletrical currents in the air or water, it can turn right back around and shock him severely. He is almost deaf on his right side, so he often has to turn his head to understand others when they speak to him. He is also somewhat claustrophobic.
History: Setcher is relatively normal history-wise. He was hatched, he grew up with the other dragons, around a couple years ago he moved towards the forest closer to the village, and he's been there ever since.
Stuff: Hm..... Noise key time!!
Pleased -- an airy, low purring noise
Irritated -- a cross between a hiss and a growl
Screaming -- a very loud, very raspy catlike roar
Uneasy, Worried -- either silence or a very unique noise that is similar to the 'chittering' noise you hear monkeys make and a cat's growl
Absolutely Terrified -- total silence. o.o
Also, species info. Hope it's alright that I made a new race....
Electric Needleback
Though generally mild-tempered, these dragons are almost impossible to ride unless their rider has complete trust in them and vice versa, due to the rows of extremely sharp needle-like spines along this dragon's back. They are very agile fliers, giving them a lot of skill when flying during windstorms or even lightning storms, which of course is common to them. They are, on average, about 5'.5" at the shoulder and 6' to 6'.5" feet at the head, with varying wingspans. Typical coloration is dark with some kind of pattern on the back, and sometimes the legs,
most often varying stripes or streaks in a lighter tone that the body color. Abilities include withstanding certain amounts of electricity, being able to use lightning/electricity as a projectile, like fire shot out of the mouth, generally very agile, and altering the bloodflow/light reflection of their scales and subtly changes basic colors. Weaknesses are water, which although it conducts electricity, it often causes them to shock themselves along with their enemies, and extremely bright light. If they are out on a nice, sunny day, the light reflection often makes it difficult for them to see, and thus they prefer to stay where it is dark during the daytime.
