Species: Fae-Touched Dragon
Category: Citizen
Career: Veil Agent - Fae Liaison
Appearance Description:
(Original Art)
Usually Nfrtbre sticks to its natural size, about 5' long and as big around as a slender human, but this can vary greatly. The dragon resembles a furred eel-like snake with a wolf's head. It has a grey-blue pelt similar to a seal's with a ridge of soft green fur along its spine and lighter fur around its face. It has two trailing "whiskers", gills, no teeth, and a long black prehensile tongue. Its eyes are a solid black.
Because it has no actual limbs, Nfrtbre has to use its tongue or the tip of its tail to interact with most things. It can rear up and rest on its tail and move smoothly, unaffected by gravity. When resting, Nfrtbre usually curls up.
It doesn't wear any clothes and usually doesn't carry anything either. Nfrtbre doesn't speak, but its face is fairly expressive and it often chirps and yips excitedly or plays music just because. It will get close to people and has no personal bubble because of its need to touch to communicate, which it does semi-telepathically with images and emotions and wordless thoughts.
Personality Description:
Raised by the fae, Nfrtbre has taken on quite a lot of their traits. It is fun-loving, slightly mischievous, and curious. Not only does it have a fae sense of honour, it also has the pride of a dragon. Like most of the court it was raised in, Nfrtbre is a diplomat slippery but honest and preferring to solve conflicts with communication over violence. It enjoys making connections with people, friendly or otherwise. It does not find being called it to be demeaning, thinking of itself as a natural force. Nfrtbre is a cuddly free spirit, somewhat dog-like in affection and loyalty, while also being fickle and capricious in temperament. It's not particularly aggressive, but does hold grudges - it has a long memory and should not be crossed. Not a hoarder in the typical sense, Nfrtbre collects sounds and specific information - mostly about relationships between people. It is very interested in sociology and psychology as hobbies.
Species Abilities:
Movement - Can swim through air or water with equal ease. Can reach speeds of 50mph. Gravity does not seem to affect it when it moves but must concentrate to stay above ground, and just staying in place would tire it more quickly. Moves headfirst - can't back up or move up or down without moving its head.
Dragon Body - Ageless. Functionally immortal - will live until killed by an outside source. Strong - can exert enough strength via constriction to bend steel, though it lacks any real ability to carry things. Could lift at most five pounds of weight with its tongue. Tough hide - could stop most small-arms fire. Has the good reaction time and flexibility expected from a snake. Completely colourblind, bad night vision. Doglike sense of smell and hearing. Tongue can taste the air like a snake. Heals about twice as fast as a human, even regenerating somewhat. Cannot regenerate tongue, eyes, nose, or head. Immune to natural disease and plant/animal-based poisons. Drinks water, about 16 cups a day, and dehydrates quickly - would die of dehydration within 2 days of no water. Eats sugar - needs about 5lbs a day. Also needs 3-4 hours of direct sunlight each day or becomes listless and depressed, but will not die from lack of sunlight. Requires 9-10 hours of sleep a night.
Size-Changing - Can shift in size from a few inches long to roughly 25 feet. Its natural length is somewhere between 4-6 feet. On either side of this, the size gets harder to maintain. At the extreme ends can only stay for 15 minutes. Strength and toughness decrease as size decrease, but speed increases. At smallest, could be crushed by a hard stomp from a human, but can reach speeds of 100mph with a quick reaction time. The reverse is true for a size increase - at largest could crush steel and stop a small rocket, but would only be able to move at a slow walking pace and have almost no agility.
Camouflage - Skin and fur change colour to blend in with surroundings. Must hold still and concentrate for 5 minutes to pick up the colours - is not complete invisibility and it can still be seen if someone looks closely or it moves. Colours will gradually fade to normal skin tone within 30 minutes or until changed again.
Underhill Citizen - Though not originally a fae, Nfrtbre has been so saturated in Underhill's magic that it has almost become one. Any other fae would recognize it as another fae. To those who can detect magic or smell those kinds of things it would appear to be both dragon and fae. Can enter and leave Underhill as if it were a fae. Cold iron leaves burning wounds that will not heal without magic and a weapon made from the iron could pierce its skin as if it were leather. Nfrtbre cannot tell a direct lie or break a promise.
Magic Connection - Can sense magic in living/undead beings as a sort of glow around them, this is a sort of sixth sense that does not rely on sight. This includes plants, but not inanimate objects, even magically charged ones such as golems. Applies to the natural magic of a being, not the strength of their powers or their skill. Can sense how magical another being is and what type of magic (ie life, death, fae). The magic of undead beings makes it feel ill, and it will get nauseous within 5' of an undead being. It is drawn to strong magic and draws it in - more affected by aura magic, but can divert targeted magical attacks to lessen their effect.
Communication - Doesn't speak in a conventional way, though it understands a wide variety of languages and can write with its tail. Also can mimic certain non-human sounds - various animal sounds and calls, and musical instruments (not electronic). Communicates via semi-telepathic transmission of images and emotions and wordless thoughts via skin-to-skin contact.
Powers:
Remote Viewing/Hearing - can increase range of sight or hearing by extending awareness into the distance, like a psychic zoom lens. Can only do sight or sound at a time. Sight/hearing are the same as normal just as if it was actually looking at/hearing. Also has the same peripheral vision - if it moved its sight behind itself, for example, it wouldn't be able to see what was in front of it. Can extend 25' in all directions and through all obstacles, except walls of cold iron or magical barriers. Illusions still work and can be deafened and/or blinded this way. Blindfolds would not work against it, but can't see through its own eyelids.
Biography:
Many thousands of years ago a dragon's egg was gifted to the King of the Apple Stream Court, a Seelie Fae court in Underhill. This court is known for being a more "friendly" court, making a lot of connections with the other fae courts. The court is also one of the rare courts with a King rather than a Queen. Nfrtbre was raised by said king from an egg.
When Nfrtbre was younger, it spent a lot of its time in the human realm, even mistaken for a god at some point, but has spent the majority of its long life in Underhill exploring the different courts. It still occasionally spent time observing humans from a distance but has not had many recent interactions with them. Once MC was made into a supernatural haven, it would visit from time to time.
With more fae arriving on the island, it decided that Manta Carlos might be worth a closer look. Using its connections and knowledge, it was able to get a job as a fae liaison with the agency responsible for The Veil, in particular between the Apple Stream Court. It has been on Manta Carlos for a few months now.
Additional Information:
The Apple Stream Court is partially underwater - a network of small islands. It has an odd climate - brightly sunny, but also cold and snow covered, though its water never freezes. It also contains sugar plum trees, only found in this court. Sugar plums resemble golden apples in shape but plums in texture and are sweet and slightly intoxicating.
