INTRODUCTION

Your name is ASHARI and you’re a MYSTERIOUS ONE, aren’t you? LITTLE IS KNOWN ABOUT YOU in the Dragon Realm. You’re FAMOUSLY FLEETING, coming and going like a dart of lightning. One second you’re there, and the next – you’re GONE, with some unfortunate soul wondering where their wealth has disappeared to.

See, you’re the ILLEGITIMATE SON of a HIGH-CLASS THIEF – and as such, you WORK UNDER THEIR GUILD and LIVE IN THEIR DEN. No-one had ever heard of a DRAGON THIEF before, especially since a vast majority of thieves despise dragons. Your birth was AN ACCIDENT, however you made it up to them by becoming one of the most AGILE and RELIABLE THIEVES EMPLOYED. That was, until… She showed up.

Never before have you felt so INFERIOR. Never before had another DRAGON been able to TRACK YOU so EFFORTLESSLY. Never had you met someone so goddamn PERSISTANT and ANNOYING… and if your mother found out that she knew your identity? Oh boy. You’d be DISOWNED and CAST AWAY faster than you can fly.

You WOULDN’T LAST amongst REGULAR DRAGON SOCIETY due to your DISGUST towards the dragon race. You’re also NOT POWERFUL and your FIRE is VERY TEMPERMENTAL. You’d be PICKED ON FOR SURE because of that. Though… if worst came to worst you could always become an aerial racer…

Personality

Ashari is standoffish and difficult to talk to. If approached, he’ll typically take flight or run away as a kind of ‘fight or flight’ response. In doing this, he’s become a kind of silent cryptid around the whole of the Dragon Realms.

He’s incredibly stern and finds it hard to take a joke, as well as being too prideful for his own good. He hates being seen or spoken to when he’s out on the job, especially if he was trying his best to stay hidden. He takes his job very seriously and gets antsy and irritated when he’s interrupted in the middle of work.

Ash is also incredibly naïve and shy when it comes to other dragons, as he knows next to nothing about how society works or how dragons grow and communicate outside of what he’s been told in the thieves’ den. As one might expect, a thief would teach someone very negatively biased opinions, and as such these are what he believes.

He’s actually quite innocent in general and is curious about how things work. Not that it’s enough for him to betray his ‘family’. Sometimes he goes out during the day and ‘mingles’ with other dragons as to take things that are only available to steal at markets and whatnot, like food supplies. He’s not very discreet however, as he has a very suspicious and paranoid way of holding himself whenever he’s outside the den and it often raises questions with the dragon elders – but before they can question him, he’s already gone.

HISTORY

The infamous egg thief Runshak stole Ash’s egg (and others) from a nursery. Unfortunately, she was caught by one of the younger, speedier dragons and as a result, she dropped all of the eggs except for his – which she’d tucked safely into her robes. She brought it back to the den, defeated, and simply placed it down in her quarters while she rested. She didn’t know that Ash’s egg had recently been taken out of an incubator in preparation for hatching. So, instead of an egg breakfast, she ended up with a cracked shell and a baby biting at her hood.

Furious, she grabbed him the scruff of his neck and ran him to the high thief, and demanded he be executed in fear of their position being leaked. The high thief thought about this for a minute or two, before deciding that he would actually benefit the den if they taught them their ways. Having a dragon on their side could prove fruitful. He was named ‘Ashari’ and training began almost instantly.

Ash was about five years old before he was able to go out and run errands on his own. Despite being young, he was light on his feet and was already taking his job seriously. He continued to run these errands (that gradually grew in difficulty) until he was twenty. He’d remained almost undetected all those years, with only vague sightings being reported but in not enough detail for anyone from the Dragon Realms to bother searching for him over.

One day, he passed by an open window of some dragon’s home and noticed an open jewellery box. Against his better judgement, he slunk through the window and tucked all of it’s contents into his pockets. As he turned to leave, his large tail knocked over a clothes-stand. He paused, worried that what he’d done had woken the house owner up, and without knowing that the owner was already awake and often stayed up late past curfew, reading. She curiously walked into the room Ash was in and flicked on the light, catching a startled boy half out the window. He escaped, but ever since that encounter the dragon – who’s name is Perma – goes out of her way to stalk and capture him.

It’s the only time he’s ever had someone actively search him out, and eventually she managed to set up a trap that snagged and tore off his robes, revealing his identity to her. Typical of a cheesy story, she fell in love with him. But unlike a typical romance, her obsessive stalking ways would no doubt get his whole guild discovered.

But will he ever tell Runshak about this girl? No. She would definitely get him locked up or disown him if he dared utter a single word.

Design notes

Ash is 5'1" in height (7'2", adult) and he has a very sleek build, with slight muscle in his limbs. He has larger than average wings that trail along the ground when he walks, that have also given him the ability to fly at a younger age than most dragons. His tail is also very long, being about twice the size of a regular dragon’s. He also has small ears and two sets of large and small dark orange/red horns, with the left ones having gold beaded jewellery joining them. He has a feathered crest that trails right down his back to just past the start of his tail, and a large feathered tail tip that’s separated from the tail by three gold beads. His feathers are a dark blue that fade to the red of his scales. He has dark scales over the whole of his back from his neck to tail, front and back shoulders, and cheeks that almost represent freckles.

His robes include a full hood that wraps around his horns and is separated by strong Velcro at the black part between horns to make it easier to get on. The top has a large emerald adorning it and a there is a smaller emerald attached to his chest. His robes then continue down to a part that looks almost like a harness (it isn’t one, just looks like one) where he can carefully slot his wings through. He has long sleeves in natural thief style that stop above his feet. All edges of the robes have a dark blue, red, and white pattern.

TRIVIA
  • Ashari's human AU counterpart is Ashton
  • Ash surprisingly is not able to use his breath power in really cold or rainy weather. It seems usual that fire can’t work in at least rainy weather, but he literally can’t even spark up a flame in either of those conditions. No breath for winter, just smoke.
  • He’s a very stereotypical dragon in the sense that he literally sleeps on a bed of gold and jewels. He hoards them as well, but that’s just the thief behaviour that’s been ingrained into him. An easy way to get him into any kind of basic trap is to just place a pile of precious gems in the centre of it, and he’ll fall for it. No matter how obvious the contraption appears to the eye.
  • Ash is very easily flustered and embarrassed. It doesn’t take much to get him stammering and red-faced. Simply getting too close for comfort or commenting something positive is enough to do the job.
  • He’s allergic to cats! Thankfully there’s not any in the thieves’ den but god forbid a dragon he’s stealing from is keeping one as a pet, because he’ll sneeze so much that he’ll give away his position.

RUNSHAK - Adoptive mother/mentor

Ash and Runshak have a very rocky relationship and while she is technically his mother, she never felt like one to him and the two typically avoid each other and rarely speak to each other despite sharing the same sleeping quarters. Occasionally Ash will send a snarky, jokey comment her way just to annoy her, but she usually ignores him. He doesn’t care all that much and probably prefers her staying out of his life.

PERMA - Stalker

Perma has been keeping very close and concerning tabs on Ash ever since they first met and it’s safe to say that her obsessions make him quite uncomfortable. She often traps him in cages and the like just so she can talk to him, and she leaves him there for extended periods of time. Unfortunately, it seems Ashari is developing some kind of feelings for his stalker, but he isn’t too sure what to make of them or what they even mean.
