Name: Izana Kunigiri

Race: Dragon. Sapphire Dragon.
Appearance:
Main Scales: Blue
Seccondary Scales and horns: Green
Spines: red.
History:
When Izana turned 10, (10th hatchday) He was forced to witness the brutal slaughter of his family and friends in order by murders that forced their way in though a lock Izana had failed to set up properly upon being warned by his family that there were sketchy people wandering through the area. The murderers forced him to decide whether or not to join the cult. Join and live, Refuse, and die right there. Izana, after a moment of thought, agreed to join in, but as soon as he had a chance to escape, he used his fire to create enough of a fireball in which he could escape down an alleyway, witnessing the same thing happening to his friends families and the friends of his family, before he manages to make it out alone, an orphan, his home destroyed. After these events, not only was he rendered an orphan, but when he finally turned around from his running, he saw his home was in flames and falling to the ground. Orphaned and homeless, he started setting off to find people to help and maybe somewhere to live where he could make a difference after a time of suicidal thoughts, but no such actions. Years pass, and while he is unsuccessful in finding a home until he gets adopted, having lived a vegetarian lifestyle all this time, he does manage to help some others, though, he relives the trauma every night in his sleep. After becoming of age, he moves away from his adoptive family, and sets off to see what he can do for the world.
Personality:
Kind, yet reserved. Izana has a hard time accepting the fact that what happened to his family on his hatchday 10 years ago or so was not in any way his fault, and not only bears shame for guilt he believes he has, but also sorrow due to missing his family. His adoptive family, however, that he recently moved out from, has alleviated enough to make him curious and playful again if the mood strikes him.
Job: Merchant / Messenger.
Other:
Fire Dragon. Izana is fireproof, Lava resistant. However, as a direct result of this, he is deathly afraid of water, and thunderstorms scare him. Just as water extinguishes fire, Izana believes that the liquid would cause him harm, though it hasn't been tested. In actuallity, Water wouldn't do any permanent harm to the poor dragon, but it WOULD make his use of fire impossible while wet.
Izana has small control over wind, about enough to redirect some subtle wind currents in the air while flying and create a little draft, but other than that, unless angered, he can't do anything else with wind.
Izana is a Kind, unfortunate soul, that is usually willing to put himself in harms way to protect another, whether or not he knows them. He has chosen to be a vegetarian because he doesn't like the thought of causing anyone else to go through similar grief to that that he goes through.
Izana's Favorite quote: "Everyone Wants to be happy, No one likes to be sad, but you can't have a rainbow without a little rain."
Another of Izana's weaknesses is that his is poor, and hasn't quite learned the proper way to fly, only knowing what he does through trial and error, and LOTS of crashing into buildings.
