Garun

Garun is an old, craggy blue dragon of large size; his scales and outline are so rough and angular that he could quite easily pass for an outlandish rock feature when lying down were it not for his blue-grey tint. His voice is broad and deep, with the softly cultured tones of a dragon who has lived long and read much, but his observant eyes are still the piercing ice blue of a predatory beast. He has broad, triangular wings that he rarely uses; he requires a running start to take off and is very clumsy in the air, but has tremendous endurance and can stay aloft for days (basically; a big goose). Garun does not have manual dexterity in his fore or hind feet, and usually picks things up with his mouth. Temperament: Mild, intellectual, some low-key snark and a little aristocratic arrogance. May show a glimpse of a burning temper now well contained.

Breath: Garun has for the most part lost his lightning breath. He long ago found a way to redirect its magical energy to increase his ability to cast spells, and can no longer use it as a breath weapon. He can still pulse an electrical charge through his body, but it takes several seconds to charge up and instantly grounds itself if he is touching anything other than air. It's not very powerful and serves more as a deterrent or a distraction.

Magic: Garun's magic these days is mostly utility-focused. He uses spells to augment his night vision, to breathe underwater, to change his colour or appearance with illusion, that sort of thing. However he is capable of greater magic, if given enough time. To cast spells he uses a combination of whispered speech and strange gaseous glowing breath to draw sigils in the air or on the ground (this is what his lightning breath has become). For some spells he may require components, which are usually earth-based such as crystals and salts. Garun has extensive knowledge of utility, elemental, and the... darker... types of spells but lacks any grasp of healing magic. It is something he is very interested in acquiring knowledge of.

History: Garun has left his past behind him. His intentions are, surprisingly, to find and help those in need. His help is offered, almost begrudgingly, to those who are in peril or who are smaller than him and can be aided by his strength or knowledge. He keeps his reasons for this strange active altruism close, but a past he'd rather stay hidden lies within the spoiler below:
