Image © Shard



Name: White Flash Precedes Warm Glow Pulses (or White Flash for short)
Origin: 2005 Ksha Protectorate Giveaway
Gender: Male
Species: Deep Sea Serpent Dragon
Colour: Deep Black with bioluminescent white, gold and red lights
Size: Long, (81' nose to tail) (~10'9" at the shoulder)
Traits: This dragon is of a deep-water species that requires high pressure to survive. It cannot survive in shallow water more than a few minutes, and its body will collapse if removed from water.
This species can reach into middle depths to pursue larger prey, and gets easily bored.
This dragon's size can reach up to 100' long, growing based on capacity for food.
Though this dragon is sapient, it uses flashing lights for communication.
Abilities: Bioluminescent Communication. This dragon speaks via light flash variations.
Deep Swimming. This dragon is most comfortable in deep, high-pressure waters.
Waterbreathing. The dragon can only breathe underwater.
Personality: White Flash has been around the Nexus for quite a while, though not always in the same oceans. When he was quite young he was able to fit through little deep-sea portals that were little-known between his home-world and the rest of the Nexus, but he's since gotten too big to do much traveling outside of Nidus Insula, except of the slow, long-distance local waters sort.

Luckily, the portal system off the shelf-coast of Nidus Insula is not completely isolated, and so other sea dragons often stumble in to White Flash's territory. He enjoys luring them to deeper depths whenever possible, and eats those who annoy him... though those are rare incidents. Mostly, he likes to pose riddles and play games. He's got almost no hoarding instinct, so he'll reward those who brave his territory with treasures that have sunk in his home range, if they're clever enough.

Since Blue-Gold showed up in his territory, he's become unexpectedly paternal. He enjoys the younger dragon's company, and has taught him quite a few of his tricks. He's aware there's a good chance that Blue-Gold will use those against him... but that's part of the fun. He's been missing a challenge, and has found the greatest one of all in surrogate parenthood.

Blue-Gold Tracers

Name: Blue-Gold Tracers (or Blue Gold for short)
Origin: 2026 MerMay Giveaway
Gender: Male
Species: Deep Sea Serpent Dragon
Colour: Black-Cobalt with alternating blue and gold lights
Size: Medium-Short, (34' nose to tail)
Traits: This dragon is of a deep-water species that requires high pressure to survive. It cannot survive in shallow water more than a few minutes, and its body will collapse if removed from water.
This species can reach into middle depths to pursue larger prey, and gets easily bored.
This dragon's size can reach up to 100' long, growing based on capacity for food.
Though this dragon is sapient, it predominantly uses flashing lights for communication.
Abilities: Bioluminescent Communication. This dragon speaks via light flash variations.
Deep Water Adaptation. This dragon is most comfortable in deep, high-pressure waters.
Size-Shifting. The dragon has two sizes: shrimp-sized and around 50' long at adulthood.
Telepathy. The dragon can speak mind-to-mind.
Waterbreathing. The dragon can only breathe underwater.
Personality: Blue-Gold Tracers didn't realize that he was stumbling into a much elder version of his species when he found himself tumbling through a portal into Nidus Insula's waters, but he's made the best of it he can. He spent his first few months terrified that White Flash was hunting him, even when he did his best to escape the much larger dragon's territory.

It turns out, White Flash was keeping him safe from other, much more dangerous sea creatures. Eventually he broke the code of communication via lights that his elder was training him in, and the two have settled into a sort of mutualistic relationship ever since.

In a way, Blue-Gold is a good intermediary: he learned how to speak telepathically when he was quite young, before he left Hathian waters, even, and a surprising amount of creatures in the area are also telepathically inclined. For that reason, he's been able to eke out a relationship with some of the mid and upper waters creatures, and their tales have proven exciting fodder for stories to tell White Flash. Anything that keeps the elder entertained means that he's a little less menacing, and Blue-Gold (who really has absolutely no intention of usurping his elder's territory in any way, despite what White Flash insists) can relax just a little bit more.
