He'd heard from someone, several someones at Carramba High about the dragonries that were still around, and about those that were not. And after careful consideration, and not a small amount of research, he set a course. Both of action for himself and his family, and the teleportation devices in their lab. Eriol was not around any longer, it was on another planet, in another time. But those things had never once mattered to his teleporter, to their science. As was his usual, he summoned his family, and urged Ginger to also 'bring her plus whoever'. And though it wasn't typical, that plus-one brought his laywer. She seemed, as always, a bit put off to even be near any of them, but when the subject was breeched, she eagerly went along with them.
They went through the large, loud portal, and emerged on another world. It was hardly their first time. But it was a much more lively place than some they'd visited.
The place rang with sounds: laughter, eager screeching and conversation, and occasional sobs of adoration and relief. Here, Quincy knew, they would find dragons.
And more. |

Name: Quincy Pepper, PhD (numerous)
Gender: Male
Age: 45
Ht: 6'0
Wt: 135
Skin: light
Hair: blond
Eyes: light brown
Personality: A genuine and happy man, still saddened by the death of his wife 12 years ago, but willing to move on. He's never taken another wife, though he does date on occasion. He's usually too intellectual for most normal women, and plenty of those who can match him wind up trying to steal technology secrets from him or his family. He's not 'naive' but he does like to believe that people are good in general. His family means more to him than any science show - and if any one of them are in trouble or danger, he is the first to don his traveling hat and boots and head out to fix it.
Of course, his family also has to put their boots and hats on to rescue him on occasion too. He sometimes seems a bit distant, it's when he's come back from some (failed?) venture in another dimension. |
"I.... I know you," Quincy said, as the dark colored dragon approached him. "Don't I? It... feels like I've met you."
"We have met," the dragon spoke, though not expertly, in a strange squeaking voice. That didn't seem to please the little guy, so he quickly switched to a mental signal instead. You are the one I must be with, and I know why. But you will learn in time. That was all he would say, even when Quincy pleaded silently for him to elaborate. There was a glimmer of something even more than mere deja-vu, at work. |
Name: Efypth
Gender: Male
Size/Shoulder/Length: large 20' s / 108' l (32.9m) /145' ws
Colors: darkish brown with slightly charcoal-brown undertones, dark grey-black wingsails; eyes change with mood
Features: 'less than' half Pernese, hide skin needing care, 4 legs with 5 clawed digits thumb fore, 2 leathery wings with 4 visible clawed fingers and prominent wrist claw, head is narrow with knobs, ridges along neck and body, tail is spaded; names may end in -TH or -SS, bicolors and rares very common or expected
Powers: Winged Flight Efypth is surprisingly light on the wing, quick and agile to a degree that other dragons of his size are put to shame. He can lift quite a bit of weight obviously, but without anything dragging him down, he is able to out maneuver all but the swiftest blues or even greens in acrobatic airs. Because of this, he is well known above the cities they habit, attracting crowds frequently.
Teleportation / Between As a dragon of several worlds, Efypth does know more about movement than most, and he prefers to use his teleportation to convey important goods or people rather than do tricks. He can teleport rapidly in succession up to 2 miles at a time, and can survey a location from a moment's view alone. He is also very well aware of the state of between, and perhaps that is why they even were aware of the clutch.
Timing it as he has gone on his own jaunts, Efypth moves effortlessly through time, and knows just when to arrive anywhere in style. He does not wear out even after confusing multiple-visits, though anyone he's bringing along might have some weird side effects.
Communication He has strong telepathic skill and can communicate with his rider at virtually any on-world distance, but also to dragons of any bent and other people, all roughly at 25 miles. However he does also speak vocally and understands English, Spanish, technical jargon spoken around the Pepper community, as well as some amount of Japanese and Russian.
Assisted Firebreath
If he has to chew some crap to get fire out of his gut, he will, but won't be happy about it. He's so large that it wouldn't really even matter - if he cannot swat something out of the sky, or bite it in combat, someone else is likely better equipped to fight it. His offspring will definitely carry both assisted and unassisted firebreath however.
Parentage: pink niateiyass (yellow Daminiss+nightfire Hobbinboliblaziniyaghth - ryslen-hathian) x blue-black doquaivath (gold-purple Dahliath+copper-silver Levianth - supposedly pernese) (this entire line will throw bicolors every time)
Origin: Weyr Eriol's Backward Frenzy, hatched in Circle 3
Other Info: Accurate and steadfast, the dragon is excessively limber and enduring.
