The Sky And The Earth II - A Fairy Tail Adventure Reborn

good lord, i don't think anyone in golem's hand is a good leader

@SilverDawn

Dreadlin basically sums that pretty well past his hard accent.

My Hider

Basically he says that while Dresdin has the capabilities of a good leader, he needs to get his crew together as their talent is useless if they cannot be controlled or disiplined properly.

The Sky And The Earth II - A Fairy Tail Adventure Reborn

@Lord Sawsaw2 I think Dreadlin can put up with leadership. He may not want it at first for personal humble opinions, but he will most likely eventually warm up to it and share it with pride.

(And even with age, he may technically be 64, but in Lizardmen years he's equivalent around middle-aged... more in the late 30s and mid 40s when compared to humans.)

@Lord Sawsaw2 I got all of Dreadlin's opinions up. Wanna take a gander at them when you have the chance?

Personal Information

Personality::

Most lizardmen are often antisocial and into themselves, as they often live a solitary life-style away from mankind. However, for Dreadlin Nauss, he's rather the complete opposite. He's an open and cheerful lad who while has pride regarding his kind, he also has an interest for humans. Having been mostly raised and confined within the home village, he has always been curious about the outside world and what lies beyond the dense jungles. Always seeking for adventure, Dreadlin loves to go on a glorious expedition or mission just to see what the world will present him on that day. He's also very sociable and loves to chat up a storm with other listening guild mates, whether it be about adventure or even regarding his own kind, while also perfectly fine just sunbathing by a lake or doing other activities by himself. Yet at the same time, Dreadlin knows quite well that he is indeed an outcast in a rather alien world. Even when looking dead in the face regarding racism towards him or his kind, instead of fighting the aggressors, he simply ignores them or calmly attempts to make them understand his culture and race. However, he still keeps his head up and is hopeful that one day the two can live side-by-side in peaceful harmony, instead of living apart from one another.

In battle, Dreadlin is headstrong and uses every bit of primal strength and courage he can muster to defeat the enemy at hand. He is loyal to the guild and will protect her members till the very end of his days. This also is true regarding his home village, as he often visits it at least once every year to check how everyone's doing.

History::

Before the wretched Daphne would create her own artificial lizardmen minions to fight for her, there was another species of more natural beings that have existed in Fiore. Long before humans became the dominant power of Fiore, these lizardmen ruled over the land as they spread out and created large tribal communities. There was a unique culture that developed within each tribe and in some locations did the lizardpeople evolve to brave the harsh conditions of their environment. From the traditional jungle variety, to the harsh desert species, alongside mountainous and swamp types, no doubt were there tens of thousands of lizard folk that ruled the land at their peak alongside the majestic dragons of old.

But all rulings must come to an end. A deadly virus caused a widespread pandemic that infected every lizardperson throughout the land. Casualities stacked up by the hundreds each day and as hard as the shamans tried, they couldn't conjure up a cure. In fact, they had no idea how to combat this disease in the first place. They would've gone extinct if it weren't for the help of a new species of intelligent beings that were slowly getting themselves off the ground. A human shaman from a far a way tribe eventually showed up while exploring Fiore alongside an escort convoy. They found the lizardmen in their troubled state and the inhabitants begged for him to help them. Long story short, he did and recognizing what this disease was, he whipped up a medicinal patch that was eventually used to stop the virus from spreading. The lizardfolk thanked the humans indefinitely and swore to become their allies as well as letting future humans come into their village.

But by the time they did stop the virus, their numbers had dropped to an unspeakable level. 65% of the lizardfolk population had perished and resulted in the extinction of various tribes located throughout Fiore. It didn't help as humans eventually settled into Fiore and while their relationship with one another were either supportive or mutual, they would take more land from the natives and push them slowly out of various major village locations. In short, the humans eventually backstabbed the natives and corrupt officials claimed them as mere vermin instead of people. By X400, the lizardmen population was down by 90% of their original size and they were forced to hide away in the deepest and most uncharted lands of Fiore. The lizardfolk also gained a deep hatred for the humans taking over their land and despised their ancestors who let them walk into their land in the first place.

Fast forward to today and Dreadlin Nauss was born in a remote jungle settlement known as Tiko Village. At that time it had only existed for a mere five years and while it was consistent with its progress, it was still a very quiet and reserved village. His parents were both farmers, while his is older brother Mylriak worked as the village smith, creating weapons and tools for the local people. Dreadlin also heard many stories about the scourge of man and how brutal they are towards them, but instead of being angry and vengeful, he was curious. Were the rumors true? And if so, does it still apply to today? Are there even other intelligent species outside the jungle too?

Those were just some of the questions the young Dreadlin Nauss asked and indeed after becoming of age, he set out on a quest to encounter humanity. The first town he came across (which he doesn't reveal) wasn't quite hospitable to his presence. Many of the people the lizardman encountered were scared of him and either ran away or called guards to take him away. For a time Dreadlin avoided this and was able to get out unscathed. He often recollects on the reality that maybe humans weren't as good as he thought. Yet before he could be back on his way home, two mages were sent out to retrieve him and they arrested the poor lizardman, locking him up in jail. It almost seemed like he'd never get back home...

But as he sat sulking in his cell, a robed figure came up to meet him. He admits to the lizardman that he had followed him for quite some time, yet doesn't wish to harm him. His name was Falon Grane, another lizardman who was enrolled as part of the Mage Council, and understands his pain. He only risen to the top because he acted to help the city rid from its own evil threat and with that he opened his mind to most of the core cities (Magnolia and Crocus) and they mostly respect the lizardfolk. To get Dreadlin out, Grane gave him a magical spell that bounded to him perfectly and pitched a plan to help him escape.

Little did Dreadlin know at that time, the magical power given to him would be a powerful "Beast Soul" and when escorted out to the prison courtyard, Grane distracted the men while Dreadlin transformed into an agile lizard creature and sneakily escaped the prison. Once he was freed, Grane heavily advised the younger lizardman to come with him in order to improve the magic he gave him. For his newfound power can save a lot of lives rather than to raise terror or for misusage. Dreadlin was hesitant at first, but eventually he accepted.

So before he head off with Grane, he went back to his village and told the villagers what happened. Most of the lizardmen were hesitant about him going, with a few claiming him as a traitor. Dreadlin's brother was very disappointed that his younger brother was leaving the village and feared that he would one day come back brainwashed by the humans to eradicate them, which almost lead into a violent fist fight between the two. But after a much needed explanation by Dreadlin and the village elder having intervened, the elder respected his decision and gave him an amulet as both a guardian and representative of Tiko Village. Dreadlin vowed to come back at least once a year and visit his friends and family.

After completing some basic training with Grane, Dreadlin was declared as approved to be within a magic guild. The lizardman eventually settled in Luna Crescente, in which he chose to become a member of Harpy's Wing under Arianna Carolina's care, who took him in with open arms. Of course, he wouldn't be quite respected by the people of Fiore until after the Dark Guild attack in which his impressive strength, determination, and courage lead him and the guilds to total victory. In return, he was proclaimed by many as a hero and became an official citizen of the city. He even has that badge of citizenship to prove this. Since then, Dreadlin continues to protect his guild and the city from further threats, while also promoting equality for all lizardmen and humans alike.

Magic

Magic Name::

"Beast Soul"

Additional Information::

While Dreadlin's Beast Soul allows for him to transform into any monster he happens to defeat in battle, he also gains their elemental powers and abilities (as well as their weaknesses). He is also capable of mimicking their move sets with near perfect accuracy. Like Elfman's beast soul, he can also transform his limbs into various parts of the respected monster. However, unlike the older variants of lizardmen, Dreadlin cannot intimidate other human or humanoid beings (primates included). He looses his advantages and disadvantages as a lizardman for the exchange of the monster's for several minutes at a time.

Known Spells::

• Lizard Monster: Dreadlin's default Beast Soul is a giant lizard monster. Standing at 9 feet tall, it's rather small and fairly weak compared to some of his other forms, not even having a base element. However, this monster is fast and surprisingly agile, being able to climb up flat walls and even run on water. It's gut is enormous, allowing it to swallow creatures up to the size of a cow in one gulp.
• Fire Monster: Dreadlin's Fire Monster form allows him to wield the fire element, using his mouth to fire balls and beams of fire at his opponent, causing an explosion upon impact. His tail is as sharp as a blade and it can be sharpened not just to produce a cleaner cut, but it can also heat up to the point where it can cut straight through metal (although it takes roughly six scrapes on a rock to accomplish this). It is weak to water-based attacks.
• Water Monster: Dreadlin's Water Monster form allows him to wield the water element, using his mouth to fire high-pressured water beams at his opponent. While it's decently agile on land, the monster truly shines when underwater as it can swim through the water with relative ease. It is weak to ice-based attacks.
• Earth Monster: Dreadlin's Earth Monster form allows him to wield the earth element, using brute strength of his armored head to lift huge chunks of rock into the air or cause earthquakes. While it's a smaller monster compared to most of the others, he is decently mobile creature and also very sturdy, being able to take much punishment and burrow quickly into the ground below him. He can also bathe in mud to release mud balls at his opponents, which can harden quickly to slowly lock them in place. It's weak to water-based attacks.
• Ice Monster: Dreadlin's Ice Monster form allows him to wield the ice element, allowing him to use his mouth to fire a freezing beam or to chomp up hard rocks and ice flow. Alongside his Fire Monster form, it's the largest creature currently in Deadlin's possession. It's large spines on the top of his back allow it to break through ice flows while underground and while mostly on the slow and sluggish side, it can go for sudden bursts of agility if needed. It's also known to jump for great distances. It's weak to fire-based attacks.
• Lightning Monster: Dreadlin's Lightning Monster form allows him to wield the lightning element, allowing it to charge up static-electricity in its fur and unleash it alongside multiple melee attacks. This creature is extremely fast and agile, infamous for it's acrobatic skill by issuing tail flips and is even known to glide using membranes attached to its limbs like a flying squirrel. If it charges enough electricity, whether naturally through its body or by someone charging him up with the lightning element, it can go into an enraged form where it's much faster and the attacks are more powerful thanks to said element. It's weak to earth-based attacks.

Other

• Feats: Even when not in his monster forms, Dreadlin is still pretty strong thanks to his heritage as a lizardman. He's known to lift up heavy boulders and tree trunks, while also being a very good climber. He's also a good swimmer, using his tail to propel him through the water like a crocodile and has some knowledge in metallurgy.
• Pastimes: When Dreadlin isn't going on quests, he often likes to spend his time sunbathing on a warm day or diving into a local pond or lake to cool off. He occasionally reads books produced by human authors to enhance his knowledge on them. Sometimes he even goes boating down a river to sightsee or fight monsters to increase his Soul Collection and bring back trophies. Dreadlin is also a heavy eater, capable of eating three full pigs in a single meal if hungry enough. Not to mention he's also a bit of a drinker and loves to test himself against other candidates. While he doesn't mind company and loves to chat with friendly fellows, but also is perfectly fine in being alone.
• Accent: Dreadlin happens to have a heavy accent, which happens to be very similar to a cockney accent. You can hear how he sounds like here.
• Favorite Drink: Bosco Whisky On The Rocks (sometimes he adds it with a hint of Guva-Guva Berry if he happens to have any on him).

Brief Lizardman Biology Facts:

1). This species of lizardmen are theorized to live up between 100 - 150 years based on the oldest documented "lizardking" (Village Elder), who said to have lived for 148 long years.

2). Lizardmen's scales are actually heat-resistant and lock moisture in the skin to keep them hydrated as they don't have sweat glands to produce sweat. When they conserve water, they also excrete excess salt from the blood stream through a nasal “salt gland”, which produces a crusty white substance that is ejected when they sneeze. They can also open their mouthes like crocodiles to release excess heat when sunbathing. In fact, their scales are tough enough to prevent regular bullets or spears from penetrating their back, which is made of hard osteoderms, or bony skin.

3). Lizardmen are known to flick their tongues out randomly, in which they provide additional fine information about smell, although they usually rely on their nostrils for smell (they smell just as good as a human does). This is thanks to a special organ known as the "Jacobsen’s Organ" and when they flutter the underside of their throats they are moving air past said organ.

4). Female lizardmen (Lizardwomen) lay between one to three eggs just like regular reptiles and take between 5 - 8 weeks to hatch, in which prior they must be kept warm with leaves and placed in direct sunlight. Unlike, say crocodiles, sex cannot be determined by how hot or cold the eggs are, so it's a complete mystery as to what gender they are prior to hatching.

5). A Lizardman's tail can be detached from it's body, although the osteoderms make it rather hard for someone to do so normally. When chopped off, the blood vessels attached to the tail clot almost instantly, preventing heavy blood loss. Thankfully the tail can be regrown over time, usually within a few years.

6). Lizardmen have between 70 - 80 teeth in their mouthes. If a tooth happens to fall off, a new one will always take it's place within a few days, unless the area is infected.

7). Lizardmen are known shed their old skin between five to six years as an adult (or within every year or two when they are growing youngsters). When shedding, their skin becomes dull and rather itchy, slowly becoming scabs on the body. When ready, the lizardman carefully removes the old skin patches on his body or scratches against a hard rough surface. They can even eat their own shedded skin to absorb calcium and other healthy and natural nutrients.

8). These Lizardmen are the only individuals that can eat the elusive "Guva-Guva" Berry, which is a decently-sized circular purple berry that usually poison humans when consumed. Symptoms of "Guva Poisoning" include nausea, vomiting, headaches, stomach-aches, and if eaten in large amounts, it can cause hallucinations and even death. Lizardmen experience the symptom of getting high, but not the other harmful effects, basically rendering the fruit as a natural psychoactive drug.

9). Unlike humans, lizardmen do not have cheeks, and thus they cannot chew properly. That means they actually swallow chunks of food whole without chewing. And like crocodiles, lizardmen are also known to eat stones to grind the food inside their stomach and even act as ballistas when underwater. The stones eventually get dissolved by the hydrochloric acid released in their stomach within 6 - 24 hours, depending on the size of the stone. In order to protect their own stomachs from being digested, they also produce an alkaline solution to neutralize the acid.

10). Lizardmen can remain underwater for up to five - six minutes before they need to go up for air, despite being mostly terrestrial creatures. That's nearly three times as long compared to a regular human.

11). While it has only been scientifically documented once in an inscription, a lizardman has a small chance to be born as an albino, meaning that its entire skin is white and it's eyes bright red. It's said that these lizardfolk were cursed long ago by an ancient god and are extremely ravenous and seclusive in nature. While no hard physical evidence has been presented of their existence as of yet, some natives claimed to have seen an albino lizardman within the deepest depths of the jungles. Only legends have been told by the Tiko Lizardclan and the surrounding human native villages.

12). Lizardmen NEVER stop growing. They will keep on growing until they eventually die. Yet the reason why one doesn't see many "dragon-sized" lizardmen is the fact that once they reach sexual maturity (between 21 - 28 years), they grow very slowly, about 1 - 2 centimeters (or less) every year. Often their heights very between 5 - 8 feet tall (1.78 m - 2.4 m). It's often unnoticeable.

Relatives::

Mylriak Nauss: Older brother (85) who works as Tiko Village's smithy. Has a rather harsh outlook on life and does not trust humans, yet is undyingly loyal to his village and its culture.

Possessions::

• Village Amulet: Given to him personally by the lizard elder, in which he's granted as an eternal guardian and representative of Kibo Village.
• Badge Of Citizenship: A badge given by Luna Crescente after the dark guild battle, proclaiming him as a special member to the town and Fiore as a whole.
• Monster Trophies: In his hut, Dreadlin has a collection of parts he's collected from the monsters he's defeated.
• Snacks: On missions, Dreadlin often brings a pack of berries and jerky meat with him as a light snack on the go.
• Toothy Necklace: Dreadlin often wears a necklace of his own teeth that he had lost within the span of twenty years. He believes it brings him good luck.

Dreadlin's Opinions

Arianna Carolina - "One ov da finest an' most generous an' carin' people I've ever met. She's a lot like me mum back in Tiko. Laddie saw 'ow genuine an' true I was in meh ter me friends an' family. I can get behind 'er any day."

Illedrith Adrasia - "She's a nice ole' bonnie fair. Enthusiastic an' good-spirited, the lass is definitely a good leader, I can give 'er that. I'll say she loves ter be in da cen'er ov attenshun though. Not like it's a bad fng, no no no, but i' can sprin' a little bad light if she ain't careful. Know what I mean? Regardless, she definitely earned me wholehearted respect."

Ceri - "D'aw... ain't she a cute lil' cuddle (miss) button. A bi' ov a shame what she's usually so very shy around uvvers, like c'mon mate we're all friends 'ere! Then again, I advise yeh not ter get 'er riled up, uvverwise yew may be in fer a nas'y surprise."

Kyuuten Rallis - "He's a good lad mate. Allus smiling, nearly always optimistic abaaaht da future, an' always carin' fer everyone in da guild, 'e kinda reminds me ov me durin' me younger years. Even aaahr summonin' magic is similar in a way, only I get ter turn in'er me monster fawms wivaaaht pacts an' what not, heh heh."

Saeko - "Nice bonnie gal overall really, but boy does she 'ave a short temper. Not ter mun'ion she doesn't quite smile a lot, which can be kinda depressin' ter be 'onest. She needs a lil' wally (laugh) 'ere n' there. But I reckon 'er 'eart is in da right place... An' 'er shield can protect an entire ci'y if used ter it's best."

Pan - "Love dis ole' geeza. Even thuff 'e's a bi' knocked in da 'ead, 'e an' I 'ave a lot in common. We bof like nature an' we respect i' fer what i' is. I mean, me village 'appens ter live in da thick ov i' an' we got along really well. Although... I'd ratha NOT be in da way ov 'is little pranks... Still way be'er van Vega's admittedly.

Cyril Parjure - "Now dis guy is a bi' ov an odd ball. He looks like 'e can fi' right in wiv da depressin' Golems, yet 'e 'as da opposite demeanor they're known ter 'ave. In fact, 'e might be a two faced individual comparin' 'is personalities. Sometimes 'e just lies around doin' nothin' at all while uvver times 'e actually gets stuff done, which I commend 'im fer that. What doesn't change thuff is da fact 'e wants ter bang every damn girl 'e comes by! C'mon mate can ya keep yer dodgy (pervy) eyes up at a gal fer one bloody second?!"

Alexandria Galtemalos - Hooo boy! De laddie's a fine beaut'! She 'as da face an' strengf ov a warrior, yet da 'eart an' soul ov a diplomat. However, if she needs ter fight, she can definitely kick some major arse wiv a sword. I like 'er! Reminds me a lot ov me in fact. I reckon' we're gonna get along just fine."

Delsin Bastille - "I 'ear de Lad's quite a 'ard-ass really, but 'e's a great guy ter fight beside yew know? I mean, I respect 'im fer bein' a good leader an' all, but what kind ov edgy lot does 'e brin' ter da table? I swear on me mum, 'e be'er get 'em under control awer they might just get aaaht ov 'and. Talen' is useless on 'em if they don't listen ter yew in da first place."

Vega Ashworth - "What a bloody ass ov o' Tea Leaf (thief) he is I tell ya... He often takes da piss way an' all far on some ov 'is lil' ole' so-called jokes. Actually, that's just puttin' i' lightly, fer 'e ALWAYS takes da piss aaaht ov someone... Especially outta me god damn accent! By jaysus, did 'e talk ter 'is mum an' pap like what when 'e was little... 'ell, did 'e even HAVE a muvver an' farfer awer someone at all?"

Jack - "Jack-a-boy is gon'a get 'imself killed one day. All I'm 'opin' is that 'e's aware ov 'ow dangerous i' can be - an' bloody hell 'e be'er be aware. Will say though, 'e can be a good ole' drinkin' partner. We still need ter do aaahr little excursion ter da pub fer a Leo Sayer (all day drinking session) though, I betcha I can beat 'im no problem."

Kazue Hattori - "Blimey! I remember bumpin' in'na one once. Jolly good fellow at first, offered me some tea, an' we 'ad a good chat. Next fn' I knew they was all on da ground twitchin' in agony as I glided off as a lightnin' beast... Ah I'm sorry, was we talkin' abaaaht samurai?"

Damian Ivorn - "Ay, what a poor guy. He's probably da sanest an' most likable lad in Golem's entire guild... But also one ov da lamest. Like I don't mean i' as an insult mate, yet 'e's just so feeble... Just take a butcher at 'im. He's gotta toughen up a little bi' if 'e wants ter survive in such a toxic environmen' but not ter da poin' where 'e gets crazy, ya know?"

Seto Nakahara - "Oh dis guy is a tricky one mate. Now 'e's pret'y much like a good chunk ov Gowlem's bloody lot, especially 'ow 'e can go from zero ter a 'undred real quickly. That's... "nawmal." But ter 'ave little ter no deep recollecshuns ov 'is past? That's suspicious ter me... I'm keepin' as close ov an eye on 'im as much as I can."

Magus Lilith Astra - "She's... A weird one. Gotta 'and i' ter 'er, I didn't realize she was a lassie until I actually 'eard 'er speak fer da first time. Not only that, 'er behavior is rarfer odd an' yet she uvverwise speaks very little. Has a strange sense ov 'umor~ ugh, everythin' seems strange wiv 'er. I 'onestly don't 'ave much ter say abaaaht 'er mate, I know very little abaaaht 'er ter begin wiv anyways. I'm guessin' she's alright uvverwise."

So before he head off with Grane, he went back to his village and told the villagers what happened. Most of the lizardmen were hesitant about him going, with a few claiming him as a traitor. Dreadlin's brother was very disappointed that his younger brother was leaving the village and feared that he would one day come back brainwashed by the humans to eradicate them, which almost lead into a violent fist fight between the two. But after a much needed explanation by Dreadlin and the village elder having intervened, the elder respected his decision and gave him an amulet as both a guardian and representative of Tiko Village. Dreadlin vowed to come back at least once a year and visit his friends and family.

After completing some basic training with Grane, Dreadlin was declared as approved to be within a magic guild. The lizardman eventually settled in Luna Crescente, in which he chose to become a member of Harpy's Wing under Arianna Carolina's care, who took him in with open arms. Of course, he wouldn't be quite respected by the people of Fiore until after the Dark Guild attack in which his impressive strength, determination, and courage lead him and the guilds to total victory. In return, he was proclaimed by many as a hero and became an official citizen of the city. He even has that badge of citizenship to prove this. Since then, Dreadlin continues to protect his guild and the city from further threats, while also promoting equality for all lizardmen and humans alike.

Magic

Magic Name::

"Beast Soul"

Additional Information::

While Dreadlin's Beast Soul allows for him to transform into any monster he happens to defeat in battle, he also gains their elemental powers and abilities (as well as their weaknesses). He is also capable of mimicking their move sets with near perfect accuracy. Like Elfman's beast soul, he can also transform his limbs into various parts of the respected monster. However, unlike the older variants of lizardmen, Dreadlin cannot intimidate other human or humanoid beings (primates included). He looses his advantages and disadvantages as a lizardman for the exchange of the monster's for several minutes at a time.

Known Spells::

• Lizard Monster: Dreadlin's default Beast Soul is a giant lizard monster. Standing at 9 feet tall, it's rather small and fairly weak compared to some of his other forms, not even having a base element. However, this monster is fast and surprisingly agile, being able to climb up flat walls and even run on water. It's gut is enormous, allowing it to swallow creatures up to the size of a cow in one gulp.
• Fire Monster: Dreadlin's Fire Monster form allows him to wield the fire element, using his mouth to fire balls and beams of fire at his opponent, causing an explosion upon impact. His tail is as sharp as a blade and it can be sharpened not just to produce a cleaner cut, but it can also heat up to the point where it can cut straight through metal (although it takes roughly six scrapes on a rock to accomplish this). It is weak to water-based attacks.
• Water Monster: Dreadlin's Water Monster form allows him to wield the water element, using his mouth to fire high-pressured water beams at his opponent. While it's decently agile on land, the monster truly shines when underwater as it can swim through the water with relative ease. It is weak to ice-based attacks.
• Earth Monster: Dreadlin's Earth Monster form allows him to wield the earth element, using brute strength of his armored head to lift huge chunks of rock into the air or cause earthquakes. While it's a smaller monster compared to most of the others, he is decently mobile creature and also very sturdy, being able to take much punishment. He can also bathe in mud to release mud balls at his opponents, which can harden quickly to slowly lock them in place. It's weak to water-based attacks.
• Ice Monster: Dreadlin's Ice Monster form allows him to wield the ice element, allowing him to use his mouth to fire a freezing beam or to chomp up hard rocks and ice flow. Alongside his Fire Monster form, it's the largest creature currently in Deadlin's possession. It's large spines on the top of his back allow it to break through ice flows while underground and while mostly on the slow and sluggish side, it can go for sudden bursts of agility if needed. It's also known to jump for great distances. It's weak to fire-based attacks.
• Lightning Monster: Dreadlin's Lightning Monster form allows him to wield the lightning element, allowing it to charge up static-electricity in its fur and unleash it alongside multiple melee attacks. This creature is extremely fast and agile, infamous for it's acrobatic skill by issuing tail flips and is even known to glide using membranes attached to its limbs like a flying squirrel. If it charges enough electricity, whether naturally through its body or by someone charging him up with the lightning element, it can go into an enraged form where it's much faster and the attacks are more powerful thanks to said element. It's weak to earth-based attacks.

Other

• Feats: Even when not in his monster forms, Dreadlin is still pretty strong thanks to his heritage as a lizardman. He's known to lift up heavy boulders and tree trunks, while also being a very good climber. He's also a good swimmer, using his tail to propel him through the water like a crocodile and has some knowledge in metallurgy.
• Pastimes: When Dreadlin isn't going on quests, he often likes to spend his time sunbathing on a warm day or diving into a local pond or lake to cool off. He occasionally reads books produced by human authors to enhance his knowledge on them. Sometimes he even goes boating down a river to sightsee or fight monsters to increase his Soul Collection and bring back trophies. Dreadlin is also a heavy eater, capable of eating three full pigs in a single meal if hungry enough. In addition, he doesn't mind company and loves to chat with friendly fellows, but also is perfectly fine in being alone.
• Accent: Dreadlin happens to have a heavy accent, which happens to be very similar to a cockney accent. You can hear how he sounds like here.
• Favorite Drink: Bosco Whisky On The Rocks (sometimes he adds it with a hint of Guva-Guva Berry if he happens to have any on him).

Brief Lizardman Biology Facts:

1). This species of lizardmen are theorized to live up between 100 - 150 years based on the oldest documented "lizardking" (Village Elder), who said to have lived for 148 long years.

2). Lizardmen's scales are actually heat-resistant and lock moisture in the skin to keep them hydrated as they don't have sweat glands to produce sweat. When they conserve water, they also excrete excess salt from the blood stream through a nasal “salt gland”, which produces a crusty white substance that is ejected when they sneeze. They can also open their mouthes like crocodiles to release excess heat when sunbathing. In fact, their scales are tough enough to prevent regular bullets or spears from penetrating their back, which is made of hard osteoderms, or bony skin.

3). Lizardmen are known to flick their tongues out randomly, in which they provide additional fine information about smell, although they usually rely on their nostrils for smell (they smell just as good as a human does). This is thanks to a special organ known as the "Jacobsen’s Organ" and when they flutter the underside of their throats they are moving air past said organ.

4). Female lizardmen (Lizardwomen) lay between one to three eggs just like regular reptiles and take between 5 - 8 weeks to hatch, in which prior they must be kept warm with leaves and placed in direct sunlight. Unlike, say crocodiles, sex cannot be determined by how hot or cold the eggs are, so it's a complete mystery as to what gender they are prior to hatching.

5). A Lizardman's tail can be detached from it's body, although the osteoderms make it rather hard for someone to do so normally. When chopped off, the blood vessels attached to the tail clot almost instantly, preventing heavy blood loss. Thankfully the tail can be regrown over time, usually within a few years.

6). Lizardmen have between 70 - 80 teeth in their mouthes. If a tooth happens to fall off, a new one will always take it's place within a few days, unless the area is infected.

7). Lizardmen are known shed their old skin between five to six years as an adult (or within every year or two when they are growing youngsters). When shedding, their skin becomes dull and rather itchy, slowly becoming scabs on the body. When ready, the lizardman carefully removes the old skin patches on his body or scratches against a hard rough surface. They can even eat their own shedded skin to absorb calcium and other healthy and natural nutrients.

8). These Lizardmen are the only individuals that can eat the elusive "Guva-Guva" Berry, which is a decently-sized circular purple berry that usually poison humans when consumed. Symptoms of "Guva Poisoning" include nausea, vomiting, headaches, stomach-aches, and if eaten in large amounts, it can cause hallucinations and even death. Lizardmen experience the symptom of getting high, but not the other harmful effects, basically rendering the fruit as a natural psychoactive drug.

9). Unlike humans, lizardmen do not have cheeks, and thus they cannot chew properly. That means they actually swallow chunks of food whole without chewing. And like crocodiles, lizardmen are also known to eat stones to grind the food inside their stomach and even act as ballistas when underwater. The stones eventually get dissolved by the hydrochloric acid released in their stomach within 6 - 24 hours, depending on the size of the stone. In order to protect their own stomachs from being digested, they also produce an alkaline solution to neutralize the acid.

10). Lizardmen can remain underwater for up to five - six minutes before they need to go up for air, despite being mostly terrestrial creatures. That's nearly three times as long compared to a regular human.

11). While it has only been scientifically documented once in an inscription, a lizardman has a small chance to be born as an albino, meaning that its entire skin is white and it's eyes bright red. It's said that these lizardfolk were cursed long ago by an ancient god and are extremely ravenous and seclusive in nature. While no hard physical evidence has been presented of their existence as of yet, some natives claimed to have seen an albino lizardman within the deepest depths of the jungles. Only legends have been told by the Tiko Lizardclan and the surrounding human native villages.

12). Lizardmen NEVER stop growing. They will keep on growing until they eventually die. Yet the reason why one doesn't see many "dragon-sized" lizardmen is the fact that once they reach sexual maturity (between 21 - 28 years), they grow very slowly, about 1 - 2 centimeters (or less) every year. Often their heights very between 5 - 8 feet tall (1.78 m - 2.4 m). It's often unnoticeable.

Relatives::

Mylriak Nauss: Older brother (85) who works as Tiko Village's smithy. Has a rather harsh outlook on life and does not trust humans, yet is undyingly loyal to his village and its culture.

Possessions::

• Village Amulet: Given to him personally by the lizard elder, in which he's granted as an eternal guardian and representative of Kibo Village.
• Badge Of Citizenship: A badge given by Luna Crescente
• Monster Trophies: In his hut, Dreadlin has a collection of parts he's collected from the monsters he's defeated.
• Snacks: On missions, Dreadlin often brings a pack of berries and jerky meat with him as a light snack on the go.
• Toothy Necklace: Dreadlin often wears a necklace of his own teeth that he had lost within the span of twenty years. He believes it brings him good luck.

hey, i was looking through my image folder, and look what I found - a high quality version of Illedrith.

@SilverDawn

No no, THIS is high quality:

My Hider

The Sky And The Earth II - A Fairy Tail Adventure (Revamp)

I've been wanting to get into a new RP ever since my irresponsible ass neglected "most" of mine due to real life stresses.

I've ALSO wanted to join a Fairy Tail RP fresh, while maybe reintroducing a few characters from a certain popular FT RP.

So in short. I'm in!

The War of the Three

Not only a few meters up the mountain does the duo suddenly receive some rather unexpected company. The sounds of robotic chirping and metal-scratching screeches can be heard coming from all around her as they surrounded Titanica and Zayata on top of the mountain walls. A growl of dissatisfaction groans over the Vassal as she doesn't take any of this lightly. Judging by the glimpses she's gotten, they were robotic raptors of some sort. Did the Machina create these creatures? And if so, why are they here?

Yet the questions didn't matter much to her. While she can easily crush them with her bare hands, they are still a valid threat. And they are blocking her path towards her goal. The vassal's eyes began to glow hot-blue in rage, her mouth emitting bluish-grey steam, and her spines begin to spark rapidly as she prepares for combat. She must make this quick if she's to beat that interloper near the bottom. As she slowly begins to scale up the mountain, Titanica quickly fires her atomic beam as she aims for the raptors scampering on the sides, being careful not to cause an avalanche by striking the sides of the rock. If any happened to jump from the edges onto her, she would simply pick them off in the air with her beam or physically smack them aside with her giant tail or fist.

But as she continues climbing up, she suddenly catches a glimpse of none other than the intruder who was flying up the mountain. He was pale, with blackened eyes only showing two dots of white soulless pupils, and had two large grey horns. No doubt it was some kind of demon. They were the only things she could catch on him before the character continued his ascent into the mountain. Rage began to pump adrenaline into her bloodstream as Titanica fires her beam straight towards his back, attempting to knock him straight out of the sky. Yet this adrenaline rush also prompted the vassal to quicken her pace up the mountain, gripping onto hard rock with her hands as they transformed into muscular reptilian-esque arms. She wasn't going to let him find this black goat leather on her watch.

Her tail can be useful for Zayata to latch on as she quickens the pace.

As Utada charges at the archangel using her sword and shield, Lucifus retaliates by casually swimming away from the strike. But not before he releases a charged orb of stellar energy right in the machina's path. At first, it may seem as if she can just quickly avoid it as it was going at a relatively slow speed. But alas, the orb bursts, releasing a plethora of smaller orbs that also quickly explode all around her.

This is when Lucifus quickly follows up by spreading his six wings out and releases a storm of stellar bullets upon Utada all while continuing to circle around her. It's almost as if he's trying to trap the machina figure in place...

Unit-T continues to scan the buildings for any sign of the staff, sometimes even entering a building of interest to double check. Yet so far she seems to have found nothing. Maybe there are some clues nearby that can point Tina in the direction of the staff...?

The War of the Three

"Yeah, though we might find a Roc try to prey on some elephants, or possibly you if you size yourself around elephant size. Finding them in the actual mountains might be a pain as they're rare and like being near the top. For rarer, more secretive predators with out of the way hiding spots, a lot of times it's easier to track and find their prey than the creature themselves. Then we make it show us the way to it's nest after we beat some sense into it!"

Titanica pauses as she looks towards at the mountains in the distance and then to the great open grasses of the Savannah. If her judgement is correct, Zayata believes that they should find the big bird down here first before going towards their original destination. It makes sense. But of course, these top predatory birds are noted as being rare specimens and it's not quite guaranteed that one will just so happen to swoop down today. Of course, there's an equal chance of luck that one might be seen and they can track it towards the mountains right to its nest.

"Then show me." orders the Vassal bluntly as they go a random direction. Of course, it wouldn't take no more than thirty seconds before the Cat Lady had another question.

"So, you chose to grab this stuff for Hoho instead of anything else. I can understand you not being into girls for the kissing, but.. Still, it seems like you're letting her get one up on you and all. She's like, supposed to be the Alchemist of Genesis right? Even if she did need this stuff, couldn't she just magic it up? She's summoned way more magical stuff out of thin air before, from what I saw in her lab/dungeon/maze thing. And her willingness to go with a kiss, well, it's obvious from that she didn't really NEED the contract, she just wanted you to dance for her."

"And you're telling me this as if I'm not aware." Titanica growls annoyingly as she turns her head to Zayata with her white teeth glistening brightly in the sunlight, "Of course the slutty whore is doing it for her amusement. What's new? In fact, I don't expect her to tell me what I seek... and even if she does, it's not like it matters... I bet every other damn Vassal would send someone a similar quest just to~"

Before she could finish, a dead Griffion just so happened to plop down from the sky a few meters in front of the two. Titanica freezes as she gazes at the dead creature for a second before looking up... and seeing a figure soar overhead. And it looks like it was heading towards the mountains. Yet while most people would simply ignore it, or be somewhat intrigued at what it is, Titanica's primal instincts hinted that something was wrong...

Something about that figure seemed as if it will be detrimental to this mission... and it's appearance seemed almost seemed too uncanny to be considered as a mere coincidence.

So while Zayata seemed oblivious enough to want to eat a dead Griffion, a guttural growl escapes Titanica's jaw as she turns towards the mountains with a squint of anger. Zayata would quickly notice her tensed stance of worry and maybe ask what was wrong.

"We're not alone..." Titanica would reply as her tail sweeps down an arc of savannah grasses, "Change of plan... we're going for the goat first."

With that, she opens her mouth and unleashes a beam of blue atomic energy at the ground. She makes a rough circle as she opens a portal below her. When Hoho asked Titanica if she learned to teleport, little did the alchemist knew... she actually can by conjuring the forces of the nether to her own will, bending it to form a stable portal to wherever she wished.

"Follow me." the vassal orders bluntly as she drops down into the portal.

And the next thing they'll know, they're right on top of the mountain range, standing near a small cliff overlooking the entire savannah-jungle ecosystem that laid below. They were rather low in terms of height, being only roughly 650 meters above the base, but unless the figure was already up on the hill, they seemed to be ahead already. But for the Vassal, there was no time to waste.

"Keep moving." Titanica barks as she begins to ascend the mountain, eying for the elusive black goat. Hopefully she'll be able to find it before the other potential rival does.

Lucifus hears the faint sound of a gun firing, alongside faint vibrations in the water, as he is quick to jump into the water as the torpedo explodes underneath his feet. The archangel recognizes the culprit as he sees Utada not more than 20 yards away. Looks like he let her get a little too close while looking around. No matter though, this fight should be quick as long as he's wary of any possible tricks. It's something he's learned over the years when fighting other Machina units.

Lucifus unsheathes his twin "Blades of Centauri" as he heats the blades up and unleashes a twin strike of solar energy towards Utada. He follows up immediately by using his wings as flippers to help him "fly" in water as he begins circling the gunwoman like a shark as he prepares for the next move.

Even within the opening chaos of battle beginning to unfold within the city, Unit-T continues to swim through the streets while attempting to avoid the conflict that has just started. Tina decided that she must be focused at the goal at hand, stopping for nothing unless it’s actually blocking off her progress. It’s probably what Tobayashi or even Karizawa would’ve ordered if they were still in contact with her. She keeps Unit-T low as she attempts to scan every building for any signs of the staff, slowly getting closer and closer the center of the city as she does so...
