IRON
[ About ]
Iron is a VERY large dragon, especially for her relatively young age. Her long wings paired with her stout body make her proportions look "odd" from afar, but this doesen't affect her movements almost at all. Being a viper, Iron has a few "unconventional" traits such as slit pupils, forked tongue and fang venom.
Being a reef dragon, Iron is as confortable in the water as she is in the sky, but she's less agile on land. Her very short fur is just enough to protect her sclaes from the sun and she doesen't do well in the cold. She has webbed feet which allow for enhaced swimming but make it difficult for her to use tools.
She is heavier than the average reef dragon, but has the normal traits of her kin, like the long waterproof wings and the muscular tail. She mainly focuses on pure strenght rather than strategy in combat.

[ Story & Trivia ]
Iron was born from two soldiers in Sandcliff Colony, and has lived her whole life there. Her mother died in The Arctic war when she was very young, so her father tried his best to give her a decent life and they were happy toghether. That was until he wed to another dragon, Murex.
Murex made it very clear from the beginning that she did NOT care about Iron, and the feelings between them grew bitter very quickly. They often fought, and Iron's father tried to defend her as much as he could, but he had become completely submitted to the prairie dragon. Iron underwent the traditional "mutation training" required for dragons like her; she was trained to employ her venom only for battle and almost never uses it.
Years went by and despite her terrible family situation, Iron managed to make friends: Murex's late son, Solaris and the leucistic prairie dove, Foxglove. Iron loved them more than anything else, as they were the only "good" dragons left for her and the only dragons she enjoyed having around.
As soon as she reached adulthood, Iron was called (and forced) in the colony army for her mutation; she hates her superiors but battle training helps her vent her frustration. Her current rank isn't high, but she has no ambition to recieve a higher position. The relationship withe her step mother did not mend, but at least Iron got to live in her own place, not having to endure her cruelty anymore. She still mantained a very good bond with her friends, very supportive of their relationship and was overjoyed when she found out they were having a cub, even considering leaving the colony to go with them once their egg hatched. All of her hopes for a better future shattered the night Foxglove died, along with her last semblance of stability.
After the death of Foxglove, Iron has been very close to Felicity, mostly to avoid her being enlisted and used as a weapon for her mutation, like how it was for her. She has done her best to be a decent role model for the cub and offers her support whenever she needs it.
- fangs are movable, they are pulled forward by a muscle when spraying venom. tongue is forked and can "taste the air" like a snake's.
- chonker. How lawd she comin' type of deal
- blood and insides are purple.
[ Relationships ]
They are very close. After the death of Foxglove, She's done her best to give her niece a good mother figure. Iron has been protecting Felicity since she started walking, as she knows how it's like to live with a mutation and sometimes she's overprotective of the cub. Felicity often relies on Iron for confort, which she tries to provide as best as she can.
Iron and her "mother" share a strong mutual despise. Murex never tried to see Iron has her own, often neglecting or down right abusing her while her father was gone. Iron also hated Murex for the poor tretment she reserved her father and brother, often fantasizing of killing her but always backed down, knowing that the consequence would have been death or exhile and that she had to be there for her brother after her father disappeared.
As close as siblings can be, Iron and Sol see each other as if they were born from the same clutch, Iron always stood up to his mother when she attacked him and the two grew inseparable quickly. She loved teasing him about his huge crush on Foxglove and this often started playful fights. After the death of Foxglove they began to grow distant and she had to watch him fall deeper into depression without being able to do anything.
She and Iron were birds of a feather. Often skipping lessons to wander off the farther ends of the colony and discover new things. They rarely argued, although Foxglove's firm belief in Spirits and of a life beyond death always seemed weird and childish to Iron. After she passed, Iron started believing in the Spirit Domain, often wondering if her old friend was really up there, looking over them.
