Bekor Ventul

Name	Bekor Ventul

Totem	(none, he's a dragon)
Smarts	4
Bod/Feet	12 (strength 10, agility 8)
RWP	3
Luck	5
Drive	0 / Fly 8 (this is his shame: all the other Shards can drive like a demon...)
Looks	5
Cool	5
Bonk	20 (dragon sized, 20' shoulder at maturity)
Powers	Telepathy - a strong mind, able to detect and speak with other telepaths quite easily no matter their breed at up to 10 miles away; he can speak to non-telepaths close range, less than 1km Functional Magic, A wide-ranging ability to wield magic to just about any practical purpose. Though innate, practice is necessary to become truly skilled. This is definitely why he's attending some classes, to improve his knowledge of basic magic and practical uses for it; currently enjoys making lights, taking notes, and cleaning spells Healing Magic, The ability to use magic to heal physical injuries; anatomy of dragons and humanoids can be challenging, tends to shift into a closer shape depending on the injured party, to 'get to know it better'; must lay hands or touch to do this, and cannot heal deeply seated injuries (currently, may learn later) Teleportation, can easily move from one spot to another within 500 meters, does tend to leave a bit of a vacuum behind and arrives with a 'pop', and might learn how to utilize those things as distractions or even attacks if needed; can concentrate on locations he's been to before, and can move up to 100 miles or through offworld-touchpoints; also seems to be able to home in on his doppelgangers, as there are many Shards out there Shapeshifting (Human), The ability to shapeshift into a human form that tends to retain the coloration of their natural draconic form; he's still young looking and enjoys the heart-eyes that a lot of folks make around him in it, though some of them are a bit put off by the fact that he's literally a dragon most of the time
Clusters	Flight +4 In his draconic form he is positively amazing to behold as he flies through the air. He loves going quite high up, and steeply diving, then pulling up to avoid the ground just at the last moment. He's only failed that move a couple times, promise! He can carry a good amount of weight in this form too, and isn't afraid to pick up friends and their gear if they're late to class Navigation +3 Almost all Shards are very good at finding their way around, and Bekor is no exception. In the air, particularly well, but on the ground or even in the water, though underground he's a little less adept as he likes to have light and landmarks
Skills	Rip Things To Shreds +3 Many Shards have spines on their arms and claws - well he's got extra limbs to use, and can do quite a bit of damage with them, he's taking classes on focusing wing claws, tail sweeps, body slams, and even headbutting to incorporate those moves into fighting... now let's find a real enemy to fight, there aren't any here that aren't already being pounded by the local superheroes Magic +2 He can recognize spellcasting when he sees or hears it, and is learning how to read various forms of magical script; also he's smart enough to not speak those words out loud until he knows what they do...
Knacks	Bond (unnecessary) +2 Though he's not actively looking to bond to a person forever, it's possible that he might be able to form one or more, and if the right partners come along who knows? Maybe he'll settle down at some point but it won't likely be with 'just one' partner Quick Shift +2 Complete with clothing, somehow, he's able to suddenly just be humanoid, and likes to swoop overhead as a dragon and land delicately on two bare feet without a hair out of place

"I feel like I've had you in a class before," seemed to be the refrain. Almost all of his professors - well, specifically Leland, Smith, Talshoy, and Prescott, seemed to look at him and just ... stare.

That was because they had taught 'him' - several of him in fact. In Carramba's history there had been at least two in recent memory, twins that were 'good and evil' versions of the blue skinned Aern Kshau. Ruben and Aern graduated in '97, so it'd been a while for those profs. But now they had a new blue guy in class. (Well there were many blue people attending Carramba by now, but this particular shade, this specific style...)

He was a good student, attentive and smart, but not so brainy that he would be seen as a nerd. The fact that he was also a dragon was new, in fact Leland went digging into his own records about the boy he faintly remembered, and because he was once an investigative reporter he discovered quite a lot of interesting information about the multidimensional persona named Shard. Like the fact that Bekor meant Shard in another language.

Talshoy's class was energetic and he clearly enjoyed it. But equally so his Health class, which he incorporated into his Martial Arts training as well. Who knew how far he'd be able to go, as a magically adept shapeshifting dragon? Well, he's a Junior so he's got another year and a half to go before graduation. He hasn't picked up much in the way of extracurricular activities, beyond 'sitting at the beach and flirting', but that's valid, he's already got an active bunch of courses to work on.

While there was a short period of adjustment to life with a smaller but full-grown dragon bond, Bekor and Moonlit made quite the team. When other dragon-likes began appearing on campus they'd hardly started their summer break before Bekor's senior year, but it was obvious that he'd be in classes with tons of similarly-bonded or befriended folks now!

A small and ... let's just say extremely similar Terigon showed up one evening when they were watching the bonfires on the beach. Furry, feathered, and while some were considerably closer to hip-height... This one was positively teensy. Small enough to almost pass as an Alisgryph or feathered flitter. But his boldness and ability to actually speak (in a clear but adorably high voice) made everyone aware that Rourae was all dragon all the time!
