Name: Zusammen (zoo-suh-men) Longclaw
Nickname: Zusa (zoo-suh), Zooza (zoo-zah), Zoozy, Zoozers
Gender: Female
Age Group: Old--432 years
Appearance:
Zusammen is a moderately sized dragon. Standing on her hind feet and stretching her neck, her nose reaches about 36 feet. Her scales are deep purple, almost black in most light. They shimmer a lighter shade when she stands in direct sunlight. Her eyes are bright orange with horizontal pupils. They are quite expressive and rimmed with dark lashes.
Her bottom right canine sticks out and rests on her upper lip, yellowed like the rest of her worn teeth. A small ivory horn pokes out of the tip of her delicately dished snout, followed by a backward curving horn on her forehead. On either side of her head are forked horns that sweep back and slightly outward. Going down her rather long neck, which once was beautiful and now his scales sticking out at odd angles, she has two more horns, both sweeping back like the one on her forehead. Her back holds another two horns, each sticking up a little more than the one before it.
Zusa's long tail adds another 15 feet to her body, and five short horns. Her hands have gnarled fingers and twisted, yellow claws. She stands fairly low to the ground, or perhaps her stomach bulges ever so slightly, but her belly is carried about 5 feet off the ground. Her wings are dark, with semitransparent purple membranes stretching between the wing bones. At the shoulder she is about 23 feet.
Despite her weight, Zusa is a rather skilled flier, though it puts some strain on her wings and after a good aerial trick routine she is often sore for a few days afterward. On the ground she has a slow, plodding pace.
Notes:
Breathes fire...
Strengths: Wisdom, awareness, understanding expressions
Weaknesses: Staying awake, speed, memories, mood swings
Personality:
Zusammen is no longer endlessly sweet and caring. Her voice is rough and worn, though she is still full of emotion and wisdom. How could a dragon of her age not pick up a few tricks along the way?
Zusa is incredibly attentive, catching little glimmers of sadness of confusion in the eyes of other dragons. She understands the way one might hold themselves when they've done something wrong. And with that comes the memories. The little things that happened along her life's path all come cascading down on her when she remembers something similar to the situation at hand. It gives her fabulous compassion, but with the numerous memories come emotions, which swing her moods about like toys.
Overall, Zusa is... Unique. She tries her best to stay awake and stay in one mindset for more than half an hour, but it's a hard battle. She's unpredictable. When she's happy she is helpful and kind, when she's angry she goes about ranting and destroying things, usually followed by waves of sadness, in which she is no use whatsoever, and stays mostly in a heap crying and wailing.
Notes:
History:
No one is born old. Zusa was a fun-loving young dragon, raised by her mother, Michigarn Broadwing. Her father, Allein, didn't care much for a wailing, fire-burping chick and went off to experience other things.
Her mother did a good job raising Zusammen, teaching her manners and Old Ragiss, as well as important things, such as where the unicorns like to hide and the best way to fight a griffin.
Zusammen eventually flew off to other spots, always restless and never staying in one place for long. Her habits still haven't changed. She's met dragons on her journeys, but none of them really caught her attention. Love never sounded like something she was looking for, either.
Notes:
Picture: None yet. I'm getting to it.
