Name: Varadoss
Gender: Male
Race: Dragon
Sub-Race: N/A
Breed: Timeless Dragon
Appearance: Varadoss has 8 wings on his body. The front-most 2 when extended, naturally bend forward past his head. the 2 sets of middle wings are by his sides and the 2 wings furthest back are smaller than the other 6 and point almost completely backwards. When in their natural folded position they layer on top of each other with the ones in front laying over the ones behind them. He has no legs and as such, has developed incredible endurance for flight and rarely lands. The few times he does land, having no legs, he glides in and lies across on his stomach. He wears a very thick, spiked armor over his main body and neck, covering most of the sides of his head. Only his jaws and eyes are not protected. What bit of his scales not covered by armor, can be seen as a crimson red. Although not very tall since he has no legs and only standing at a total of 4'1", His body itself is enormous in length measuring at 42'7" with his tail making up a little over half that and a wing span of 31 feet.
Personality: Despite his appearance, Varadoss is a very kind, gentle, and outgoing dragon. His life has been dedicated to protecting and watching over the good, innocent, weak, and injured creatures in the world. Though he hates seeing another living being die, he will not hesitate, even one instant, to take the life of a creature with Mal-intent to harm or kill another just for pleasure or fun. His loyalty to the ones he befriends is unwavering and the trust he places in others is undying. If betrayed, he believes in giving second chances. If betrayed a second time, he declares the creature his enemy and if paths cross again, he will ignore and fly away from his enemy even if the creature is in a grave danger of dying as he judges them of not being worthy of the life they have been given since they only use others for selfish gain.
Magic: Ice
Spells:
Ice Barrier - By inhaling deeply and exhaling sub-zero temperature breaths, he can freeze the water in the air around him and/or others to create a thick but hollow dome of solid ice surrounding them. He mainly uses this as a last resort to protect himself or others in danger if they are exhausted or injured. This spell uses a decent portion of his stamina and as such, he must recover for roughly 2 minutes after use. Generally the barrier lasts much longer than that but is highly vulnerable to fire attacks which can rapidly melt it.
Frost Lance - A more offensive skill, he draws water from glands in the back of his mouth and combining it with his breath forms a spear made of ice. It is strong and fast enough to pierce solid rock but the one major disadvantage to this skill is, it takes an hour for the water in his glands to build up enough to create another one for use. He very seldom uses this offensive attack unless he's hunting a very large animal such as bears, or to put a dying and suffering creature out of its misery since it grants an immediate death.
Freezing Nova - His most devastating offensive skill, He inhales as much air as possible and releases it all at once aiming directly beneath him at the ground. Within seconds, everything within 50 meters of him is frozen in almost 7 inches of solid ice. This attack exhausts ALL of his strength and leaves him defenseless for half an hour. The only situation he has been known to use this is when he is sleeping on the ground and becomes severely outnumbered by a pack of animals that try to attack him. The ice takes almost a week to melt giving him enough time to rest after using it and escape unless a fire magic user comes to thaw it faster.
Skills: The 8 wings Varadoss has on his body makes him unrivaled in aerial maneuvering and allows him to perform movements in the air which creatures with normal wings would find impossible such as slowing their speed in the middle of a nose dive without pulling up, turning, veering off course, or completely stopping by using his front 4 wings to maintain his stability and the back 4 to reduce the speed of the descent.
Biography: Varadoss comes from a rare species of dragons known as "The Timeless Ones". They have the unique ability to live indefinitely or until they are killed. He was the third born child, but first to survive, in a family of Timeless Dragons. Most Timeless Dragons are peaceful, but because of their rarity, have been hunted by many creatures and are almost extinct save for Varadoss, his mother, father, and grandfather. At the age of 100, His mother, father and grandfather all came together and forged him the armor he wears to this day in order to help protect at least one of the Timeless Dragons from being harmed and killed so easily as the others. It is made of unique metals, diamonds, and some of the scales from each of his family members making it extraordinarily tough and very difficult to pierce and break through. Due to its weight though, Varadoss has had to develop a near inconceivable strength just to fly. At the age of 2,300, Varadoss and his family decided that in order to better protect the legacy of Timeless Dragons and help ensure the survivability of them, they all split apart and flew to separate ends of the world so they weren't all in one place. Now at an age somewhere around 39,000 years, (Varadoss is unsure of his EXACT age since he lost count and rounds it to the nearest thousand), he lives his days helping and protecting others as well as sharing his immense knowledge with those who seek wisdom and guidance. He also searches for a suitable mate each day in order to help re-populate his near extinct species of dragon.
