Pets
- Hatchling Ice Wyvern aka Xarzith - About the size of a medium sized dog, this little winged lizard is a whitish blue in color. He only understands basic commands at such a young age, but as he gets older he will be able to learn more complex commands. Never will he have the sentient thoughts of his dragon cousins though. Still young, Xarzith has mastered basic flight though nothing fancy and possess a magic breath that exits his mouth in a neon blue beam of light and causes clumps of ice to form and cling to anything it hits. Currently he can not sustain more than rapid short bursts, but with maturity the ice caused by his breath will be able to use the moisture around it to spread and ultimately consume that which it is attached too unless melted away or all is completely removed. All it takes is a small shard and time to regrow again.
The Past
Nixeu came to be when a female red dragon was bound to a human body and a male, human born, solider took her to bed. They never crossed paths after that, but a month later the bound dragon found out she was pregnant. Eight months later Nixeu was born and somehow his birth had broke the shackles on his mothers form. He never knew it, but he had been close to death that night. For reasons he will never know his mother spared him from death by her hands yet left him to die from neglect.
The next day, an elven woman happened across Nixeu. She took him to her husband, an elven jeweler, and pleaded with him to let her keep the baby for she had been unable to conceive a child after many years of trying. The elven man relents to his wife's wishes for no other reason than to make her happy. It wasn't until about 30 years later that the man began to soften towards Nixeu, mostly due to the child's affinity and talent with gems. All went well for some decades after and Nixeu was raised with an elven upbringing. When he was 78 years old, looking no more than a child entering their teens, he began to undergo his draconian puberty. The small stubs on his head began to noticeably grow into horns, the once ruff patches of red skin grew into scales and he gained a few less noticeable changes as well. This went on for about 5 years before Nixeu began to hiccup small flames, but there was no control of it.
One night he felt a heat rise up inside and there was no containing it as flames burst forth from his mouth. That which he had known as his home burnt to the ground with his adoptive parents trapped within, but Nixeu only received minor first degree burns from the hot flames. The other elves of their town turned on the halfling with the elves deaths, having never much liked him in the first place, and had intent to kill him for what he had done. His explanations fell on death ears and he barely escapes with his life. For a few years following, Nixeu wonders farther away from what used to be his homelands until he left the island of Rynvale altogether to venture farther in hopes of finding a place to live. Everywhere Nixeu went he was meet with fear and hostility for many though him a demon by his outward appearance. Such acts built a wall around his heart. Eventually he came to a cold, barren land and found that living higher in the mountains gave him the solace and home he was seeking, but over time had made him more bestial in acts and thoughts.
