Urnaess's Biancass Nerano

Name: Biancass Nerano

Sponsored by: Urnaess

Gender: Female

Species: Dragon Mutt

Hatchling Height: 2'3" at shoulder

Adult Height: 13'6" at shoulder

Color: Blue-Orange

Personality: With a coloration as bold as the one she possesses, it should be little surprise that Biancass is just as vibrant when it comes to her personality. She always seems to be at odds with the world around her, an anarchist wherever she goes and whatever she encounters. She despises stability and routine and, should she encounter it, will not suffer its existence. Biancass does not, however, act with any moral purpose--she would sow chaos among a stable and thriving utopia just as readily as she would among the tamed, browbeaten masses of an oppressed country. Whatever it is she's set herself too, she acts with cheer and enthusiasm, but regardless of how friendly she can be getting along with others, she'll never meet a soul who can dissuade her from her chosen path--whatever it may be at the time.

Name: Calibanio Nerano

Bonded to: Portiass Nerano

Sponsored by: Brio Nerano

Gender: Male

Species: Dragon Mutt

Hatchling Height: 2'5" at shoulder

Adult Height: 13'10" at shoulder

Color: Red-Orange

Personality: Calibanio is one of those lazy, greedy schmucks who can only make friends among those of similar temperament--though even then, it's more just a gathering of kindred spirits than real friends. Because they're bonded and of so similar minds, his sister is probably the only real friend he'll ever have. He wants to get his paws on as much as he can with as little effort and risk as possible, which will then be hoarded jealously and used or spent only for his own purposes. His dealings are always fair, however, at least in terms of lawfulness--he won't care about cheating a better deal out of someone, provided it's still no-risk/low-effort for him and he can't get in actual trouble with anyone for it.

Name: Cordeliass Nerano

Sponsored by: Dr. Schroeder

Gender: Female

Species: Dragon Mutt

Hatchling Height: 2'8" at shoulder

Adult Height: 14'4" at shoulder

Color: Blue-White

Personality: Cordeliass is one of those people who always seems to bring a bubble of happiness and cheer wherever she goes, so many of those aboard the Destiny are quite fond of her. She is not the effervescent sort, but almost seems to radiate her quietly pleasant nature like some kind of glow or aura. She has a habit of humming to herself as she goes about her business and her tone is pleasing, though she never actually sings. Cordeliass is also highly organized, keeping tidy quarters and never misplacing anything she is entrusted.

Abilities: Acid Blood. Acid Immunity. Functional Magic. Telepathy. Verbal Speech.

The hatchling that found her way to Kalyturn's feet was one of the few purples, managing to do so without attracting Stephanio's attention. Cressidass tilted her head at the anthropomorph in a quietly contemplative manner, then made a quiet noise somewhere between thoughtful and unmoved.

"Well, compared to some of these other ones...." Her murmur trailed off, unfinished, but there she remained.

Name: Cressidass Nerano

Sponsored by: Kalyturn

Gender: Female

Species: Dragon Mutt

Hatchling Height: 2'2" at shoulder

Adult Height: 13'4" at shoulder

Color: Purple-White

Personality: Indifferent and unconcerned with the world around her, the only person who matters to Cressidass is Cressidass. If she lends aid to another, it's because she benefits from it somehow. By the same token, she won't harm or purposefully cause trouble for another unless she really gets something out of the inconvenience of it. If someone is generous with her, she will not feel inclined to ever return the favor, nor will she look for revenge if she is slighted. She leaves others alone, wants to be left alone, and it takes extreme circumstances to get her to deviate from this lifestyle at all.

"Oh geez, oh geez, oh geez!" Such was the chant that preluded Cupidio's bolting up to Vera, pursued by the yet-untiring Stephanio, just before the dark red dove behind the bear-person's legs for shelter.

"Hah!" whooped his much-smaller brother. "All y-yours!" Stephanio grinned wildly up at Vera, then bounded off again.

Name: Cupidio Nerano

Bonded to: Vera Orse

Gender: Male

Species: Dragon Mutt

Hatchling Height: 2'9" at shoulder

Adult Height: 14'5" at shoulder

Color: Red-White

Personality: Don't let his name mislead you--there's nothing romantic about Cupidio whatsoever! He is neither a matchmaker nor interested in ever having a "special someone" of his own. It's almost rather unfortunate, that, since he has a pleasant and humble demeanor that will probably appeal to the ladies when he's older. He never gets in trouble nor makes trouble for others, and as the saying goes, he's the sort of guy you bring home to Mom. Apparently his name was something of a jinx!

With her rich purple fur and bright orange carapace, the hatchling named Mabass was probably the most eye-catching of the lot. Waharli would no doubt see her new bond coming, the way Mabass stood out from the dark moss of the Bay floor. The little dragonet seemed confused, even a little lost, "peering" closely at each candidate or sponsor that she walked by, then moving on with a noise of frustration.

When she got to Waharli, though, her body language brightened immediately as she turned her head up to the fiery-colored mutt. "It is you! I thought I felt you again! Hi!"

Name: Mabass Nerano

Bonded to: Waharli Rona'de

Gender: Female

Species: Dragon Mutt

Hatchling Height: 2'4" at shoulder

Adult Height: 13'8" at shoulder

Color: Purple-Orange

Personality: There are two things Mabass has in abundance: her generosity and her absentmindedness. If there's something she can spare for another--be it in time, affection, money, or possessions--then she will give it freely and without second thought...primarily because she doesn't have second thoughts. Mabass is astoundingly easy to take advantage of, simply because of how quickly she forgets whether she's already done this or that, or how many times that seedy acquaintance of hers has already borrowed "just five bucks, that's all". It's unfair to call her stupid or naïve because she is not either of these things--she's just disorganized and easily distracted.

A blue and white male made it over to Hindar's feet without getting "attacked" by the sibling harassing most of the rest of the clutch, casting his "gaze" around curiously as he stopped by the wolv. "Where are the others? I can feel them in your head...couldn't you bring them in with you? Gosh, I hope we get along...."

Name: Oberonio Nerano

Bonded to: Hindar

Gender: Male

Species: Dragon Mutt

Hatchling Height: 2'0" at shoulder

Adult Height: 13'0" at shoulder

Color: Blue-White

Personality: They say honesty is the best policy and Oberonio certainly holds to this. Actually, he doesn't have a choice in the matter. He is a little paragon of truth and candor--so don't entrust him with anything that absolutely must be kept secret. Oberonio's conscience is so strong he actually gets visibly ill when he tries to go against it, and even lying by omission can make him edgy and guilty-feeling. Even if the lies serve a good purpose. One might think that not having eyes would make for an excellent poker-face, but such is not the case with this earnest fellow.

One hatchling, the red Opheliass, almost seemed to forget there were candidates to bond or be sponsored by. Though she escaped wild Stephanio's notice, she would up distracted by taking note of one of the hatching's archivists and getting the man to explain to her just what it was he was doing with that datapad of his. One question led into another from there, and the whole of the hatching might have passed her by if she hadn't realized she didn't want the line beside her own name to remain blank!

Helpfully, the archivist pointed her at one of the still-free sponsors, and that was how Opheliass wound up with Leyanna as her new caretaker.

Name: Opheliass Nerano

Sponsored by: Leyanna Kiona

Gender: Female

Species: Dragon Mutt

Hatchling Height: 3'0" at shoulder

Adult Height: 15'0" at shoulder

Color: Red-White

Personality: Life never seems to move fast enough for Opheliass--or maybe it's better to say that she's just too much for the rest of the world to keep up with. Chatty, fussy, and busy busy busy, Opheliass never slows down or takes it easy. She's not hyper or spastic, and is in fact meticulously organized and attentive to details. A lack of things to do turns immediately to boredom for her, which makes the mutt cross and restless. Opheliass is best kept occupied, her manic energy turned towards projects people actually want accomplished, lest she start making up chores for herself that are in fact problematic--such as reorganizing those 3,000 files the way she thinks should be done, rather than the way their owner already spent four months putting together.

Name: Portiass Nerano

Bonded to: Calibanio Nerano

Sponsored by: Brio Nerano

Gender: Female

Species: Dragon Mutt

Hatchling Height: 2'2" at shoulder

Adult Height: 13'5" at shoulder

Color: Red-Orange

Personality: She may look like and have the same basic goals as her brother, but there's one big thing that sets Portiass and Calibanio apart: charisma. After Calibanio comes up with his next plot, it's usually Portiass who does the bulk of the legwork, sweet-talking, or whatever else is required for it--and this actually suits her fine. She's not too clever on her own, at least when it comes to organizing the big picture, but she excels once Calibanio's assigned her one of the detail-jobs to do. Also, considering how critical she is to him--sparing him having to engage in work and effort on his own--Calibanio would never, ever cheat her out of her share for fear of losing her assistance, and there is a strong mutual trust between the bonded siblings.

"Heeeeeey, Uncle Nept!" was the cry that accompanied Neptuss's new bond, as one of his little nephews bounded eagerly to the grown dragon's feet. Though the other xeno-mutt wouldn't be able to actually see it, the grin on Puckio's face was pure mischief. "I'm ready for adventures and mayhem and all that good stuff! When do we start?"

Name: Puckio Nerano

Bonded to: Neptuss

Gender: Male

Species: Dragon Mutt

Hatchling Height: 2'3" at shoulder

Adult Height: at 13'7" shoulder

Color: Blue-White

Personality: Somebody must have told Puckio about his namesake, for the cunning, mischievous mutt is never so happy as he is when he's stirring up trouble. Lacking any of the magics that most of his siblings possess, it's in fact a huge badge of pride to Puckio to pull things off with nothing more than his own resourcefulness and ingenuity. This can make him an absolute terror to live with, unless one is able to convince him to direct his tricks in a mutually beneficial direction--but that can take some serious doing, as it's nowhere near as fun doing something because someone asked him too!

One of the few purple hatchlings, a large male, was among the first to make his choice after escaping the rambunctious pouncings of his smaller brother Stephanio. He cast his attentions around until he found Darkess, then leapt towards her with a delighted laugh and cry of, "Dibs on Gramma!"

Name: Setebosio Nerano

Bonded to: Darkess (Murasaki & Shadess too, if you like)

Gender: Male

Species: Dragon Mutt

Hatchling Height: 3'0" at shoulder

Adult Height: 14'11" at shoulder

Color: Purple-White

Personality: Being in Setebosio's company is rarely boring or unpleasant, for the mutt is bursting with equal parts cheer, vivacity, and wit. Though he may refer to Darkess as "Queen Gramma" too much for her liking, Setebosio is one of those souls who only play around like that with the people he likes. When his jokes are silenced and his smile fades, then you know he's in the presence of someone he dislikes or mistrusts. On the whole, though, Setebosio enjoys people and their company, and strives to get along with everyone that he can.

Name: Stephanio Nerano

Sponsored by: Dr. Schroeder

Gender: Male

Species: Dragon Mutt

Hatchling Height: 2'0" at shoulder

Adult Height: at 13'1" shoulder

Color: Blue-Orange

Personality: Sometimes dragons just go a little wacky. Stephanio is one of these. Whether somebody rattled his egg by accident, some combination of his wide genetic background just didn't mix together so well, or he just had rocket-fuel for breakfast, Stephanio is wired and weird. If he had eyes, you'd expect them to be wild and manic, but as it is, his metallic grin does the job well enough on its own. He moves in electric bursts of energy, usually cackling as he goes, and he drives his two sisters rather batty. When he speaks it's often with a stutter, but it may be affected rather than a true inheritance from his father. (Cordeliass and Sycoraxiss think so, anyhow.)

Name: Sycoraxiss Nerano

Sponsored by: Dr. Schroeder

Gender: Female

Species: Dragon Mutt

Hatchling Height: 2'5" at shoulder

Adult Height: 13'11" at shoulder

Color: Red-Orange

Personality: Between calm, organized Cordeliass and wild, crazy Stephanio, there is Sycoraxiss. She often finds herself the target of her brother's manic attentions, and it's suspected that this is because he gets the best reactions out of her. Sycoraxiss has little patience and is easily excited into a rage, nor does she appear to even have the ability to learn to ignore things that happen all the time. As a result, it seems to be a favorite act of Stephanio's to aggravate her and run off, because she will always give furious chase until her smaller, sprightlier sibling has worn her out. She has little tolerance for fools and Stephanio is the biggest one she knows--but woe to anyone other than Sycoraxiss who tries to lift a hand against the hyperactive whelp! Stephanio might be a demented pain in the tail, but he's still her little brother.

One red female tried to make her way to her bond of choice, only to get soundly tackled by the manic Stephanio just before she could actually get there. That sent a yelping ball of blue and red fur rolling across the moss--and right into poor little Tinamari! Child and dragons tumbled into a heap, though Stephanio wriggled free and was back on his feet within moments, bounding off again with a cackle.

"That brat!" Titaniass huffed, mostly in dismay, carefully levering her weight off her new bond. "Are you okay?" she asked then, carefully nosing the girl in search of bruises or other hurts.

Name: Titaniass Nerano

Bonded to: Tinamari Kalen

Gender: Female

Species: Dragon Mutt

Hatchling Height: 2'3" at shoulder

Adult Height: 13'6" at shoulder

Color: Red-White

Personality: Scrupulous and thorough in all things, Titaniass is a nitpicker. In her (metaphorical) eyes, who cares about the forest--some of those trees need some serious tending-to. When something needs to be done with care and precision, Titaniass is the perfect dragon to go to. What you don't want to rely on her for, on the other hand, is things that need to be done in a hurry. She cannot be rushed in anything, even if there were a countdown to a doomsday device ticking off in the background. That's not to say she's late in everything she does, but she will work until the last available moment, letting not a second go to waste.

The red male called Trinculio looked a little aimless, wandering among the available candidates. Even after he, too, was leapt at and knocked over by his brother Stephanio, he didn't seem much to care. While the blue charged off for his next target, Trinculio only picked himself up, shook himself off, and made it the rest of the way over to sit at Rimwe's feet.

"Are you alright?" Rimwe asked of the hatchling, equal parts curious and concerned.

"Hm? Oh, yes, I'm fine." The red shrugged blandly. "It's alright."

Name: Trinculio Nerano

Sponsored by: Rimwe Selamputo

Gender: Male

Species: Dragon Mutt

Hatchling Height: 2'6" at shoulder

Adult Height: 14'0" at shoulder

Color: Red-Orange

Personality: Contrasting all the vibrant or otherwise purposeful personalities in his clutch, Trinculio is inexplicably melancholy. There is a distracted or unsettled quality to his nature, as if something is missing in his life but he hasn't figured out what it is yet. He has no other answer than "I'm fine, really," if queried about his mood, nor does he wish he had bonded, and he does not seem to be lying about these things. Trinculio is a responsible soul, working hard and never lazing around or giving the impression that he's depressed about anything, so it could be it's just his surface appearances that make him seem incomplete...but who knows?
