Deep Sea Giveaway: Sea Phoenixes
Based very loosely off of the elbow squid which was recently discovered off the side of a deep sea drilling operation, Sea Phoenixes are deep-sea dragons (despite their names) which have six elbow-jointed limbs that trail glowing hooks. Their wings are large fleshy membranes used to propel them majestically through deep, heavy water, while their two tails possess thorned suckers all along the base. Hooking smaller prey on their trailing limbs and defending themselves with their tails, these dragons are generally peaceful, though their ways of thinking are quite alien to most. Their flesh is rubbery and somewhat transparent, especially in thinner membranes.
(They come with a black background as .jpg's, as I wasn't able to make 'em transparent while also using pencil crayons. D: Sorry!)
Personality: Peaceful, thoughtful, territorially aggressive against large animals; they are more aggressive against other squid-like dragons (especially their own species) than other kinds of dragons.
Abilities:
Water Breathing: The dragon has gills and can breathe under water. It can not survive in shallow water for more than a few minutes, and collapses when brought above water.
Empathic Telepathy: Communicates direct emotions and feelings, may be accompanied by sonar-based telepathic noises; Sea Phoenixes do not think in words though they are sentient
Intimidate OR Charm (pick one!): Intimidate, when 'on' will cause a sensation of foreboding, fear, wariness and a need to escape, growing stronger the closer the Sea Phoenix is near. Charm, when 'on' will cause a sensation of comfort, ease, and even attraction the closer the Sea Phoenix is. Some Sea Phoenixes possess one ability while the others possess the other.
Extended Lifespan: Sea Phoenixes can live for hundreds of years barring injury or sickness.
Sea Phoenix take two to three decades to mature physically, and can live for centuries.
They do not bond, though on occasion a mature Sea Phoenix will take another sentient under its wing as an apprentice. Some Sea Phoenixes acquire and keep 'pets' or 'herds' from other deep sea life. They do not mate for life, though they tend to be more likely to come back to the same mate more often than mating at random. They may interbreed with other dragons that can survive in the deep sea.

The dragon would pick its own name, so sort of like Kitsuneko's Athenasian dragons... "Little Fish" or "Heavy Thought" or "Sparkles" or something along those lines. XD Imagine that their name is pronounced as a feeling or an image/mental imposition of the thing that they're thinking of. If the dragon were named "Shoal of Fish", when it greeted you and introduced itself you'd get a mental image/sound/taste/whatever of a shoal of fish. X3
Wow, I was -totally- gonna do a dragon based off those squid. XD Glad I decided against it! Yours are sooo much better!

I called my guy "What" for short. He's perpetually confused due to the presence of smart smallish squid Monsa. Link: http://characters.lambeosaurine.com/spo ... epsea.html
