I have a story! Once upon a time, there a young dragon, who was very youthful and spry. All of the packs adored this dragon, for he was renowned for his hunting skills and his lovely voice. What is was most famous for, however, was his pelt. Yes, his pelt, for it glimmered and shone and sparkled so brilliantly in all colors of the rainbow. It seemed to light up the faces of everyone he met. This pelt was a great source of pride for the dragon. In fact, he was so proud of his pelt that he began to boast and brag all across the mountains.

Now, in this age of the world, the time of the night was feared terribly. There was no light in the sky but for the eerie glowing of the moon. It was impossible to see, and great mystery and fear of the darkness spread throughout the packs. One evening, the famous dragon walked along through a dense forest without a care in the world. He came across an elderly female dragon, who was wandering the woods alone. The dragon addressed the elder. "Madam, surely you cannot see well in this dark? I shall accompany you to your home." The elder smiled. "Thank you, young one. That is very kind of you."

While the two dragons walked, the young dragon began to retell mighty stories of his accomplishments. The elder listened intently and looked to the young dragon. "You say you are a master hunter, yes? Let us have a contest to see who can catch the most prey before sunrise." The young dragon laughed and readily agreed, thinking the elder a fool for challenging him.

The two set off into the woods. The young dragon chased after every bit of prey that he could find, but they kept getting away. He frowned and continued on looking and chasing, but with no luck. He finally managed to catch two sick deer and a baby hare. As the sun rose, he walked to where the elder was and, to his surprise, he saw that the elder had caught a whole heap of prey... much more prey than he. He growled at the elder. "You... You tricked me!" The elder shook her head.

"No. I have seen you for what you truly are and you are not the greatest hunter in the world. You were so prideful that you could not even see that your brilliant pelt was so bright that the prey scattered before you could come near." As she spoke, the elder transformed into a great goddess of the sky. She waved a paw at the young dragon, and as she ascended, she removed the sparkling splendor from the youth's pelt. "As punishment for your pride, I shall remove your wondrous pelt and use it as a light in the heavens." The light from the pelt scattered all across the night sky, creating tiny dots of light that we know as stars. Because of that fateful night, we are not afraid of the darkness anymore, and we can hunt at night all we wish.

What is your name: Jadzia
What is your view on unity: I'm not too sure about the whole "unity" thing, actually. I mean, I understand it, and I really do feel connected to the whole of the pack, but... What happens if I get too attached to one dragon? I don't know what'll happen to me then. Like, will the others scorn me for doing so? It's really confusing. But besides anything personal, I think it's a really interesting and unique type of ritual. You become more one with the whole pack like you're all one family.
Do you prefer Pack members or Outsiders: I suppose I like both! I know my pack members more and I trust them more, you could say, but sometimes they can just get on my nerves, you know? Outsiders... See, they may not be as trustworthy in a way, but there's that element of mystery in them that's just... you know?! It's just... inviting.
What's your opinion on Northern Dragons: Northerns... I'm kind of "eh" on Northerns. I mean, they're okay, but they're a curse, you know? I have no personal grudge to them, but I certainly wouldn't like to associate with one.
What is the meaning of life: The meaning of life... Well, I guess life is present for us so that we can find out all that we can and accomplish as much as we can so that others will remember us and learn from our findings. Something like that.

How do I deal with you?

Dragon Name: Marlo
Dragon Gender: Male
Any Future Plans: Eh... I dunno. Mating could happen. Other mess could happen. We shall see. :B
Response: Marlo sighed heavily. He looked around the bowl and spotted his clutch-mate mingling with the others. She was getting fatter and fatter every day, and Marlo was more than worried. She was saying that she wanted an easy life, but Marlo knew that she could do so much more! She could rule all of Isole! But no, no, no... She had to lead an insignificant life being a mother and being nobody! It boggled Marlo's mind.

After a few minutes, Marlo spotted his clutch-mate alone. He took a deep breath and walked over to her, sitting beside her. She smiled kindly to Marlo. He gave a small smile back, but it did not feel very reassuring to him. He did not meet his clutch-mate's eyes. "You know..." he started, "you can be capable of so much good as the leader." He sighed. "You have so much potential to make Isole so great. Why would you want to give that up?" Without pausing, he continued.

"Being a mother is an awesome responsibility, I can imagine, but still. Being a strong leader for us all... It would make us more united, in a way." Marlo smiled awkwardly at his clutch-mate. She did not speak. He stood up and began to walk away. "Please consider it, at least. I believe that you can do so much good." With that, he walked away from her, hoping that she could see her potential.
