Feather-Tooth

Name: Feather-Tooth

Age: 35

Race: Xorani (lesser dragons)

Sex: Asexual (male appearance)

Scales: Back scales are a deep blue extending to the tip of the tail, underbelly scales are a light tan, and scales on wing buds are a deep elegant purple

Eyes: Yellow eyes with black slits

Weight: 275 lbs

Height: 6 feet 7 inches

Wingspan: Six feet

Weapon: Spiked steel mace

Armor: Natural scale armor; Steel buckler and steel armor on shoulders, wrists, thighs, ankles, tail, and connective piece between shoulders and wings

Strengths: Decent healing magic, survival instincts, moderate melee ability, increased regenerative ability (not much, about twice the speed of humans), can perform surgery and excels in first aid

Weakness: Unable to fly, healing magic takes from his own health and is useless to heal himself, poor English

Skills/Magic:
Major Heal: Restores all minor wounds (scrapes, slight cuts) most mid-level (deep cuts and trauma) and a few major damage sources (impalements, massive trauma, internal bleeding)

Shield: A shimmering protective shield against physical damage coating the target’s skin

Spell Absorption: Instead of a spell normally damaging a persons vitality, their willpower is increased to superhuman status and they actually absorb the spell, using its power to their own advantage

Resurrection: NOTE----------------------NOTE
This spell is possible only under extreme stress to resurrect said person and only if Feather-Tooth is in perfect health and the target has been dead for less than three hours. No coughs, no cuts, no scrapes, perfect health. Feather-Tooth will immediately be put in a vegetative state whether the spell renders the target alive again or not, and will not recover for several months to several years. All healing Xorani are taught that this spell is forbidden unless an extreme circumstance such as a diplomatic or political figure is killed.

Appearance: From tail to nares Feather-Tooth is seven and a half feet long. From the tip of his tail up to the connections to his wings, hundreds of small inch long spikes make two lines up the body. The tail is armored with several steel plates with chainmail underlay to protect from blades. The plates cover the top of tail but not the bottom. They move up the body to the wing connections with have steel coverings over the bone and none over the connective skin to the first finger bone. The steel covers the back of the neck moving into standard shoulder armor ending at the bicep and starting mid forearm in a bracer again. Flexible steel plates cover the thighs ending just above the knee and starts mid tibia. His entire body is thickly scaled with deep blue scales slowly lightening as they reach the underbelly and underneath the upper portion of the tail changing into a light tan. The wing connective tissue is a violet color and the bone pieces of wing are a deep purple.
Now, for body structure… here, just add these wings between the spine and the shoulders with this sort of connective tissue these.

Personality: Feather-Tooth has a deep sense of personal conviction to help the sick and wounded instilled in him by the Witchdoctor of his village. He feels out of place with those he does not know and especially if they are of a different beast-race. He is always at war with himself over the meaning of his birth and left the world to gather wisdom. He is bright and intelligent and all around good natured, though he is easily provoked to anger when the safety of others is at stake.

Biography: Feather-Tooth’s birth was an omen, of what the village of Kilia is still unsure. His species eventually rises into greater dragons at the age of two hundred. The rarest of these particular dragons are the purple-wings. They are destined to be the head of the race so only one will be born every several hundred years, and when another is born, the current head of the race departs into the Void.

Feather-Tooth, given the opportunity to choose his lot in life because of his destiny, chose to become a Witchdoctor for his people and keep them alive. He began to study medicine regularly then specialized in magic healing as he grew into his thirties. It was at this age that he was charged to journey the world seeking wisdom, courage and strength to lead his people. He prepared for two years, studying the art of melee combat to help defend himself, then set off at the age of thirty-three.

At the age of thirty-four he lost his first patient, an outcast of his race who had been attacked by wild animals. He tried to repair the lacerations magically but couldn’t maintain the focus required, and then at that point it was too late to heal him with conventional medicine. After that he swore he would never lose another patient.

He began gathering herbs and making his own medications for villages in exchange for room and board and would learn local culture and seek the guidance of the elders as he wandered town to city to village. And to this day, he continues to journey, waiting until he has enough wisdom and strength to lead his people, one hundred sixty-five years from now.
