Anguinei is chivalrous with a strong moral code, protective of those she loves and those who would benefit her social circle. Despite her optimistic outlook for their future, Anguinei can't deny a part of her is cynical: it takes so little to destroy a family.

Adult Length: 14'
Color: Plum-Raspberry with Raspberry-Green Fins
Abilities: Telepathy, Underwater Breathing, Distracting Eye, Light Show, Eternal Patience, Hunter's Mark

She has a particular dislike of ships and is likely to develop a reputation as a sailor devouring sea monster when she reaches maturity. She is kind and protective toward her bond, but otherwise uninterested in socialization.

Personality: Bathynomeis shares his father's eternal patience and was quite happy to wait for the perfect bond to find him. He appreciates Neith's cunning and understanding of herself, and Bathy intends to follow in her metaphorical footsteps. He is morally grey and an opportunistic, pursing needs and desires with little thought to social repercussions. If people call him a monster, so be it. He has no need for labels and no desire to prove himself to anyone. He is vengeful and violent toward other sapient beings only in retaliation or to protect himself and his bond. Anything else, on the other hand, is fair game to toy with as he pleases.
Bond: Neith

He's equal parts a boon and a burden to Pip's muse; overflowing with ideas but ever-cautious about suggesting something with flaws. Never-the-less, he loves collaborating new songs and stories with Pip and the pair enjoy the process, however turbulent.

Adult Length: 16'
Color: Teal-Blue with Pink-Purple Fins
Abilities:Telepathy, Underwater Breathing, Distracting Eye, Teleportation, Eternal Patience, Hunter's Mark

Chias is quite submissive and always willing to follow orders, even if those orders are to back off or go help someone out of a mess she's caused. She feels no guilt for her actions but isn't entirely evil. Chias' is always willing to share her resources with those in need and is actually quite generous.

Species: Betta-Dragonfish Dragon
Adult Length: 22'
Color: Black-Blue
Abilities: Telepathy, Underwater Breathing, Distracting Eye, Teleportation, Light Show, Eternal Patience
Personality: Eurypharynx believes in organization above all else - a place for everything and everything in its place. He's fastidious, keenly observant, and highly intelligent - but his keen mind is more attuned to memorization than analysis. He never forgets the precise placement of an object or the way a person's brow twitches when they're nervous. This makes him an excellent hunter, combined with his eternal patience Eurypharynx never misses a mark. Like his bond, Eury is rather shy, but almost cripplingly so. He dislikes company outside of Odlam and will be sullen if forced into social circles.
Bond: Odlam

Gender: Male
Species: Betta-Dragonfish Dragon
Adult Length: 26'
Color: Teal with Cyan-Red Fins
Abilities: Telepathy, Underwater Breathing, Distracting Eye, Teleportation, Light Show, Eternal Patience, Hunter's Mark
Personality: A fearsome name for a terribly nervous dragon. Infernalis is filled with fear and uncertainty and he looks to his bond for direction in almost all things. Infernalis fears the new and unknown, he's horrendously shy and excellent at keeping out of sight when strangers are around. He's able to self-reflect enough to be upset over his own anxiety, which just makes things worse! When he's with Bor (and whatever company he's comfortable with), he's full of wit and charm. Infernalis is an excellent hunter and preens under the praise a good kill brings him.
Bond: Bor

Adult Length: 21'
Color: Grey with Green Fins
Abilities: Telepathy, Underwater Breathing, Distracting Eye, Teleportation, Light Show, Eternal Patience
Personality: Lophii feels the need to be in control of everything around her. She's a nitpicky perfectionist who insists on triple checking everything to make sure it's just right. Her need for control has made her susceptible to stress and anxiety. She has difficulty with social interactions but is generally friendly and wants to get along with everyone. Sometimes her need to please means making incompatible promises to people. Lophii is at her best when she's allowed artistic freedom with no weight of responsibility on her metaphorical shoulders.
Bond: Hessetal

Morwenna's Magnapinna (DRAY)

Name: Magnapinna
Gender: Female
Species: Betta-Dragonfish Dragon
Adult Length: 30'
Color: Plum-Cream with Magenta Fins
Abilities: Telepathy, Underwater Breathing, Distracting Eye, Teleportation
Personality: It's hard to say if Magnapinna is a good influence or a terrible one. She wants Morwenna to follow her heart's desire, not cow to her responsibilities on land. Magna is determined, fierce, and vocally opinionated. She doesn't care for being surrounded by people of any sort, let alone children whose safety and well-being she has to consider constantly. She is, never-the-less, quite playful and optimistic, but she does absolutely nothing to reign herself in. Magna has the uncanny ability to determine if someone is telling the truth or not, and she will quickly call someone out if she suspects subterfuge. Magna wants desperately to break Morwenna's chains of responsibility and let the both of them flee to the abyss.
Bond: Morwenna

Adult Length: 12'
Color: Black and Spectrum with White-Spectrum Fins
Abilities: Telepathy, Underwater Breathing, Distracting Eye, Teleportation, Light Show, Eternal Patience, Hunter's Mark
Personality: Marcidus has a personality to match his obtusely bright coloration. He's playful, fun-loving, and eternally optimistic. Dire odds? Nah, they've got it handled it. A disaster at sea? That's just character building! He does let anything get him down. His optimism lends itself to stubbornness though, he's incapable of backing off and has difficulty realizing something is a lost cause. Once he's been set to action, he's going to play out the scenario no matter his orders. Outside of duty, he's an easy going fellow who enjoys going with the flow.
Bond: Hollie MacDaniel

Abilities: Telepathy, Underwater Breathing, Distracting Eye, Eternal Patience
Personality: Hard-working and authoritative, Melanocetus is prepared to put forth the effort Scylla may ask of him to help build her pod. He's endlessly devoted to her, even if he's not particularly friendly toward anyone else. It's not that he's outright snide, he's just deeply introverted and would rather swim off to a dark crevice than socialize outside of a structured setting. Never-the-less, as long as he's not required to interact too fiercely with others, Melanocetus is a dedicated worker, possessed of optimism and eternal patience to get things done right.

Color: Green with Pink-Red Fins
Abilities: Telepathy, Underwater Breathing, Distracting Eye, Teleportation, Light Show, Eternal Patience, Hunter's Mark
Personality: Mesony believes in openness and honesty, but he cares about drama as much as he does cementing friendships. He's dramatic and brash himself, always full of grand gestures and stunning soliloquies. He's a terrible gossip and his preferred form of vengeance is to destroy reputations. Despite this, he's faithful and unerringly loyal to those closest to him. He'd never betray Amirilan or the rest of her shipmates. He's sensitive to criticism and quick to defend  himself.

Myxinei loves puzzles, which doesn't mean he's particularly good at them but he'd happily spend a whole week ruminating on a riddle.

She is a rock, emotionally stable and introspective enough to understand her own needs and weaknesses. In the public view, she plays a charming protector, but in private - with just her and her bond - she is quiet, subdued, and often pessimistic.
Bond: Elaine Song

Color: Black with Spectrum Fins
Abilities: Telepathy, Underwater Breathing, Distracting Eye, Teleportation, Light Show, Eternal Patience, Hunter's Mark
Personality: Pteroi believes in 'tough love,' doling out discipline where it's needed to keep the people she cares about safe. She can seem callous to those who don't know her well, as she often hides her emotions, but she's truly deeply empathetic and easily hurt. She worries a great deal about Sedna and how to keep her safe while she's performing her security duties. She finds it easier to distance herself from others rather than risk deep attachments. Pteroi conducts herself with polite detachment, well-mannered but stoic.

Color: Purple-Lilac with Pink-Purple Fins
Abilities: Telepathy, Underwater Breathing, Distracting Eye, Teleportation, Light Show
Personality: Rhinochimera is a fierce, free-spirited dragon who chose to go with Savas in order to meet the infamous Shy and (hopefully) make a good enough impression to become some use to the man. He's hot-tempered and protective of the people that uphold his ideals. He has a great sense of curiosity and freedom, but is happy to follow orders as long as they come from a master he's chosen. He lacks the characteristic patience of his bloodline and instead itches for immediate results. He hates leaving questions unanswered.
Sponsor: Savas

Color: Teal with Yellow-Green Fins
Abilities: Telepathy, Underwater Breathing, Distracting Eye, Teleportation, Light Show, Hunter's Mark
Personality: From the moment of his birth, Rubicunda yearned for the open waters of a true ocean. The sterile, artificial seas of a spaceport grated at him like so many buzzing flies. He despises man-made architecture and the hum of machines. Outside of his hatred for all things artificial, Rubicunda is quick to trust and generally gregarious. He has an extroverted nature and is generally playful. Not everything is all fun and games, though! He may be young, but he has a mind toward great plans for the future.
Bond: Lernaea

Species: Betta-Dragonfish Dragon

Color: Blue-White with Coral Fins
Abilities: Telepathy, Underwater Breathing, Distracting Eye, Teleportation, Light Show
Personality: Scorpaeni has no feathers to ruffle. He's easy-going, ever calm, and patient (although he lacks the supernatural patience of his bloodline). Whereas Emir keeps his emotions locked up tight, Scorpaeni simply doesn't feel them. He isn't without empathy, but he's just not bothered by snideness or dislike directed at himself or his bond. He lacks a single ounce of embarrassment over his actions or fumbles and doesn't understand why Emir would. People are forgetful, people just don't really care. Scorpaeni is endlessly supportive of Emir's scholarly pursuits and will happily listen to his literary critiques for hours, but he just doesn't share any passion (negative or positive) for fellow people.
Bond: Emir Syden
