The Gypsy Myths
(You want trouble, lads and lasses? You've found it!)
----------------------------------
No one ever said that dragons were creatures to follow rules and structures, and if they did, they need a boot to the head! This lot... well, no one's sure how they came together, or why, but they're all related in that they're just not quite average! Led by the infamous Nileeret, this band seems to like to wander. And bond. And breed. (Yes, breed.) For some reason, every dragon or creature here is bonded to one another--or perhaps its simply strong ties of friendship--or more. >D
Nileeret. Call him a faerie and expect jovial chortling, accompanied by a quaint pummeling! This fella leads the mottly crew below, and while he's good at keeping them in line, he's not exactly well versed in dealing with the outside world. Call him an airhead and a dreamer, but this dragon enjoys delving into flights of fancy... and just flights. >3

Flutty may be smaller then the image above gives appearance to, but then, that may very well be a life-sized portrait! This fella is Nil's first mate, loyal guard, and all around brainless flit-type. He's beautiful, but he just doesn't have enough up there to make good on what he's got! Ah well, at least he enjoys life to the fullest. Feed him sweet sweet nectar and you'll make a friend of him for life!

Sinker is named such because... well, she's certainly not a swimmer! She's incredibly good-hearted, and loves to sit and purr and drool on friends (and do tricks. She loves those, too!) But... she's a few bricks short of a load. Everyone pampers her to the utmost, and loves her none-the-less!

Length: 2'

Prima is the one you want to go to if you have no idea who you're dealing with here, as a group. Being level headed, not to mention a humanoid-shifter, she can relate to others much better then many of this unruly lot! She's usually compassionate, but she does have an impish streak. Watch her when she's PMS-y, for hell hath no fury like a cranky she-dragon!

Xu is the man and the man is Xu! He's the kind of dragon you go to if you're looking for slippery fun, both the innocent and not-so-innocent kind! ^.~ A shameless flirt and a worthless layabout, Xu loves life and all its fun parts. He waits for things to come to him, and not the other way around.

Gift From: Arcenciel
Maybe blonde stereo-types cross the species gap... whatever the case, Galamane can sometimes be a bit slow on the pickup. She's passionate about all parts of life, and loves to debate, but invariably she loses word-battles because she simply doesn't have the words she needs! She's a vehement opponent of Prima, but at other times, the opposite can said to be true. Whatever the case may be, Gala' is usually in charge of gathering food supplies... and what a mess that can end up being!

Mordred is far from being a dreadful creature! She's often a pain in the butt, but she's cheerful and tries her best to be helpful. Assistant to Galamane in hunting and gathering food by less archaic means. She gets in the way far more often then she actually helps... at least, physically. Very compassionate by nature, Mordred can listen to verbal wailing for hours on end!

Charming in a boyish way, Pelamir seems to be able to weasel out of any given task with those big, dark doe-like eyes of his! He loves food, but he hates to go to lengths to get it... and so he's usually fawning over Galamane or Mordred to get it!
Name: Pelamir

Height: 19' (at the shoulder, Medium-Large)
Length: 38'

Verieller (ver-EE-ehl-ay) is a self-claimed fortune-teller, and, like many in her particular line of business, she's very good at lying! She's also incredibly self-involved, the beautiful, mysterious thing that she is! No one is good enough for her--well, that's what she wants people to believe, anyways. Perhaps it's just that none of her group understand how to properly court her... after all she's supposed to be doing the picking and choosing, not some brainless male!

Colours: Clouded Red with gold and black
Breed: Silshar Dragon
Rank: Fortune Teller
Height: 15' (at the shoulder, Medium)

Awk is an interesting one. While he's not malevolent in the least, he seems to like causing trouble, much like a two-year-old brat. He'll disappear in the night at some point and then not re-appear for days, and in the meantime, members of the group will experience insufferable headaches and nightmares. They're convinced that he's to blame, but no on can prove it!

Em'pur's personality is as vibrant as his colouration. He's flamboyant (in a surprisingly metrosexual way) and he has a way with words that can rip through another as easily as set their hearts afloat. With his abilities, he's become a truly skilled chef of all things! While some of this troupe like to eat their food raw--or living! Em' will flambay or roast or scorch or whatever needs doing to get just the right juices flowing. He'll sometimes disappear for days at a time to retrieve herbs and seasonings--how he gets the money for them (or if he even obtains them legally) no one really knows.

Technical specialist, Blacklit seems to know more then should ever be necessary about electricity, and taming fire into doing the most outrageous things. She can turn a bonfire into a light show, and can make an ordinarily lit room the bastard love-child of a rave and a disco-square... but it doesn't stop there. Blacklit, as her name suggests, can do amazing things with black light, like summoning the near ultra-violet stuff from nothing, either for play or for blinding others.
Name: Blacklit

Length: 40'

Defense! Defense! Defeeeeeeeeense! No one's sure how Shandura managed to joing Nileeret's group, but one thing's for certain. She loves sports. She loves talking about sports. She loves playing them, and most of all, she likes getting others to play them with her! Her most amazing feats lie in manipulating a soccer-like ball but using only her hind paws, muzzle, and lengthy tail. Telekinetic manipulation? LIES! LIES AND DECEIT!! Did I mention that she can be a little over the top at times?

Dronkey ehn't a donkey! She's a donkagon! Or... a Dragonky. Or something. Whatever, she's annoying. Very, very annoying. While her origins are mysterious, this strange creature seems to live only for the present and--to put things more bluntly, to keep close tabs on Nileeret, thusly, driving him mad.

Rulkin Taan is a wanderer at heart, but that doesn't mean that he's a loner--by no means! He simply can't stay put in one place for very long. He loves company, and has a way with strangers that they often feel instantly at ease with him. It helps that he can shape shift in such subtle ways as to look similar to those he's travelling with. Life is a constant adventure for him, and he loves it.
