Nathaniel - PDARPG

Nathaniel - dragon, humanoid form - he/him
5000+ years - white eyes - white hair

- - - - -

    Cursed to wander, ever flightless, wallowing among the filthy life forms that habit the soils of worlds, Nathaniel walks paths he has drenched in grudge.

 

    A dragon proud and haughty in demeanor, bitter towards those that took his beautiful form of a beast, and his wings with it, he bears a large cursemark tattooed into the skin on his back. It holds him imprisoned in his bipedal form, pillaging him of his former glory and the ability to soar the skies. No one knows how and why he fell from grace, the ties to his kind cut and his body hexed - the dragon refuses to spill a single word about his seclusion, often starting a conflict with his natural weapons that he still wields.

 

    Generally seen alone, it is usually unwise to approach the White Dragon by any means. He prefers solitude over company, even though he has been seen with a peculiar character in the past. Having met the strange claiming-to-be shape-shifter during the Athos' days as an escort, before either of them jumped through their first portal, their time together has rumored to been wild, but bumpy. Perhaps for the best of them both, one has to be extremely lucky to spot the two even in the same city at a given time nowadays.

 

    Elusive and behavior veiled in mystery for most, Nathaniel is mainly seen at night. While not being exactly the stealthiest with his pale hide, it is not known why he chooses to head out after hours - it is another subject he is not too keen on cracking the curtain of. Or of anything, really. Opening one's mouth about any subject in his company, they usually risk their teeth being kicked in, and being force-fed those very teeth right after.

    It felt like it wasn't too long after you made Nathaniel that the shapeshifter mask item was released.
    I've been wondering for a while since then if you would have approached him differently if that item was out before you made him.

      that's actually a really good question, though i doubt much would've changed - since like many characters and designs i make, he's a happy accident. as both Kate (https://www.paperdemon.com/app/art/view/57432) and Caspian have a very dark design pulling from their primeval forms, i wanted to try and design a lighter one - essentially what Jiteo (https://www.paperdemon.com/app/art/view/55370) became afterwards.

      and then my hand slipped and Nati happened lol. honestly i don't even know if i'm ever actually going to utilize that mask on him, but time will tell. at least it's there as a backup, if i do.
