basic fact sheet (this is temporary) (also it's stupid)

ok so i very much intend to write up a proper info page for this guy like i have for his verse-mates Elijah and Toby but until that day comes, here is what needs to be known:
  • he is a dragon
  • he is an old dragon
  • but not like dinosaur old, like hatched in the 1700's old
  • he does not like to broadcast the fact that he is a dragon, but sometimes he can't help acting like one anyway
  • "acting like one" in this case generally means being covetous of/easily distracted by gems and rare metals and shiny things, as well as being hungry literally almost all the time
  • he is also incredibly lazy and on most days would rather take a nap than do anything else
  • and also pretty darn vain and arrogant on account of being a very old dragon
  • he uses magic to make himself look human and is attempting to blend in with human society because of Reasons
  • he's been doing this for a while but sometimes he's still not very good at it oops
  • he can also use magic (and his own dragony biology) to ~glamour~ people, i.e. hypnotize them into a pliable state of mind so they'll do what he wants
  • but he's too lazy/not ambitious enough to use that sort of thing for anything really nefarious
  • like maybe he'll glamour the waitstaff into comping his very expensive deluxe five-star meal but that's about the worst he'll do
  • technically he's a breed of european dragon but he speaks with a(n american) southern accent/dialect because he has lived in the (american) south pretty much his entire life
  • his only useful/profitable skill is identifying and appraising jewelry (i.e. precious stones and metals) and enchanted things
  • he can also identify fey (magical critters) virtually on sight but the jewelry thing is generally more useful
  • when he can be bothered to make use of it
  • did i mention he's super lazy
  • i think that's it for now ok goodbye
