Necok [ee-yeh-sok]

Gender: Male

True Form: Snake like with no wings or limbs and has a dragon shaped head. Has no horns, but has poison quills that grow from the top of his head, down his neck and a tuff of them on the end of his tail. His scales are like sand; small, round, but surprisingly smooth. Like all dragon kin, his scales are tough against physical and magic attacks, but can still be breached with a powerful weapon or certain type of spell. Skin is colored in patterns of varying shades of brown, dark yellows and black. In this form his body is 78 yards long; from snout tip to tail tip. He is still growing, but at a slower rate now than when he was younger. Weighs roughly as much as a normal sized mammoth.

Humanoid Form: 3 feet tall, slinder and with a large head that is shaped like a sideways oval. Looks quite old with wrinkles folding his skin and the way he moves and acts. The only hair he has are some washed out brown tuffs above his ears. The ears are long and pointy like an elfs. He spots a slinder tail that is tipped in poison quills. Always has a walking stick in hand, but does not truly need its assisstance. Weighs about 35 pounds, including cloths.

Pets:

Fuzz - A pygmy desert owl that is no bigger than a childs hand. Usually brings some random flower or plant to Necok. In return, Necok has made the little bird his familiar. As such, Necok can see, hear and speak through Fuzz. A side effect is that the little bird now has greater intellegince, but only as much as a small child.

Items:

Wyrm Scaled-Silk-Keikogi - A vest like shirt that is held in place by a cloth belt.

Wyrm Scaled-Silk-Hakama - Pants that fit snug about the waist and are baggy about the legs. Can be tucked into his tabi shoes.

Wyrm Scaled-Silk-Tabi - Shoes that rise up to the calf and have a division at the toes. In one area the big toe is in and the other toes fit on the other side.

  • The hakama, keikogi, and tabi are what his scales in dragon form change into when he turns humanoid. It is as strong as his scales in true form, but leaves the 'flesh' part of his skin no more thick than a humans.

(Pictures will be up as soon as I find someone to do them lol)


Biography

Necok was hatched in the sands of the Nameless Desert. He knew nothing of a mother or father, but a tribe of desert people took him in and raised him. Over the years as he grew older, larger and more skilled in fighting, he became their protector. For 203 years he held the possision with pride and caring for those in the tribe that had become his family and dear friends. Then a great wave of change blew through their land. Many people from the outside world heard that there was a dragon living in the desert and saught Necok out for the rare properties his blood, bones and scales provided. Very few made it alive so far in the scorching land, and all but one was swiftly dealt with by the Sand Wyrm. Her name was Gabeillya, an elven high mage who had used her great spells of the arcane to bind Necok. A he laid unable to move, he helplessly watched his family slaughtered. A great anger surged through his body and gave him the strength to break through the binding spell.

Blind with rage, Necok attacks without thought to anything that moves around him. The world rushes back in. Horror, grief and a near crippling guilt pound him relentlessly like a sand storm. He had slain the magus, but had also slain the rest of his tribe. The deep gouges and bodies bitten in half spoke testament to that. Then something strange happened. The spirits of his fallen family gathered around him, wailing and shouting harsh words or judgement, betrayal and hurtful anger. They massed together into a black orb, Necok resigned to his fate. Death would be just for what he had done. The dark mass shots at him, sinking into his flesh and the Sand Wyrm blacked out from the suddenly intense pain.

Upon waking, Necok thinks that hell surely does look like the desert lands. Then he noticed that he is still alive and the blood was flowing through his vein, air taken in his lungs, and a thirst drying the back of his throat. For many years he placed himself into a self inposed isolation, trying to forget the horrible insadent with training and obtaining knowledge. It was one such instance in his search of learning something new that he came upon a monkly man who traveled with a caravan on the desert route that connected it to cenril. They formed a sort of respectful friendship and the monk taught him how to change his shape, fight hand to hand and the most important, to find inner peace with what had happened. The monk ends up spending the rest of his years in the company of Necok, them becoming like brothers. His passing was gentle and the wyrm could not help but miss him yet feel happy for his eternal peace. It was then that he decided that he would venture out of the only home he ever knew. A bone deep, piercing pain corsed through all of Necok as he tries to cross the boundary of sand to the plains of milious. It only abated when he crossed back into the desert. It seemed the souls of his lost family had done something in the end. For a few years Necok researches with what books he had gained and did mild experiments. In the end what had happened to him became clear. He was cursed. Now his isolation was no longer by choice, but force. Deciding that there was much to sort out and think over, Necok retreats into his Sanctuary to meditate. Almost 200 years have passed and the Sand Wyrm has been seen once more roaming the Nameless Desert.


  • Since Awakening

It is both emotional and physical at once, representing ones spirit, thought, power, creativity / creative energy, spontaneity, and inventiveness.

Life Energy

Often confused with magic, most noted soul magic, but it is not. This is the shaping of ones energy that gives them life. It is very dangrous for non-immortal creatures to attempt for if done so, the shaper will grow older. How much so depends on how strong a shaping. Immortals learn this rather safely for they possess endless years so long as they are not physicaly killed in some manner. This is not a practice to be taken up by one who is impacient, for it can take years of storing for a shaper to do something so common among mages; such as forming a ball of water, fire, ice, earth, ect. Needless to say that something as complex as warding takes decades of storing to gain the power needed. A very good thing about the shaping of life energy is that it has different principles than magic for it comes from the Mortal Plane, not that of the Plane of Destiny. So breaking a ward or spell done by life energy is difficult to do without proper fore knowledge. On the other side of the coin, it is weak against raw magic. The kind that has not been filtered into something else; such as fire, water, light, shadow, etc.
