.0 Willow

Mainest Main sona. This is basically me but dragon and way prettier.

Willow is a magical white dragon, they can change some patterns on their coat, shapeshift between anthro form, feral form and humanoid form at will, make things levitate, hover in the air sightly, teleport, expell energy orbs, some healing abilities and other minor powers. Most of these powers leave them tired everytime they use them the greater they are, but things as levitate small objects such as pencils or light books, hover just a few cms above the floor and use candle-like energy orbs are everyday powers they don't get tired from using. They can also breath fire, as their dragon nature is, and it can vary in temperature at will, as long as they have enough fuel in their system.

About Willow's shapeshifting, they can only shift between anthro dragon form, a 15m long feral eastern dragon, and a human-like person. The only things that they can't hide while shifting are their horns and tail, which are always present regardless of form. Besides this, Willow can change their fur color slightly as in tone variations (warmer or colder hue) and their markins as iguanas do: darker, more contrasting markings when scared or angry; and brighter, duller (could reach almost white) markings when very relaxed, sleeping or, well, dying. However, their flesh can change colors drastically, which means their eyes, mouth, paw pads, inside of ears, flesh, guts and blood can change to any color, though they normally go through four main palettes (see in gallery).

Personality-wise, Willow is a kind being. They have a strong melancholic aura around them all the time, but will always greet you with a smile and try their best to be a good impact in people's lives. They are rather shy at first, but with time, they warm up, though they will -almost- never talk about their past or any negative feeling that has settled into their mind; they prefer to fight battles alone.

Actually, due to some of this past, Willow has trouble in social skills, the issue at core being unable to feel empathy properly. They have a really hard time understanding positive or negative feelings of others, since their life is mostly reigned by logic, "expect the best and prepare for the worst", they haven't experienced emotional dissapointment in a very long, long time, and have trouble understanding and giving emotional support to others. This empathy issue has been present since they're kids, but has gotten better very slowly. Even if they aren't very empathetic or sympathetic, they are compassionate, and are not afraid to ask "what can I do to help?". So, most of Willow's progress is thanks to imitating and eventually learning social cues, interactions and acceptable responses, their mindset being something like "I don't understand you, but the right thing is to help you, so I will do my best to make you feel safe". Furthermore, this lack of emotional connection is both a blessing and a curse, because as they haven't experienced hatred, they haven't felt love either. They do feel sadness, though, sometimes a lot of it, but they also can feel peaceful and happiness.

Willow still doesn't understand quite well why they help everyone, but they feel it's what they ought to do.

This dragon loves to go on alone walks, collect leaves, rocks, bones and keep all kinds of pets, be it mammals, fish, reptiles or insects. They also keep a large greenhouse divided in four different ecosystems full of all kinds of plants. Willow spends all of their morning taking care of their plants and animals, so their productive time starts around noon, when they can either write, practice music, or draw (mostly digitally). Very less often, they do photography too. Willow cooks by themselves and a lot of days has music softly wigglying in the air. Their days are mostly routine, but they like it, and use weekends to either relax doing whatever they want or to go out with their friends. Their far away house at the skirts of the forest is an ideal place to hang out by themselves.
