Vritra Rising

Well here's a race I came up with a while back, you may remember it's explanation.

Vritras- Dragon Possessors

Dragons have their own history. They have come to the Earth about every month since the beginning of time. But no dragon comes mighty and powerful to the world. And if a human didn't have the certain "spark," they could be completely passed by, as nothing, or something insignificant.

You see, Dragons come to the earth as marble-sized crystals. They can be found as exactly that, a marble or crystal, maybe kept as a toy by a little kid, unknowing of it's power. Now, Dragons have to become stronger at some point. And if no human ever notices, they can become quite powerful.

As the years go by, the crystals grow. Some have been growing since the beginning of time, and are the size of homes. These crystals are of course, hidden. Many Vritras search for these Dragon crystals. Now, the power of a dragon is determined differently. The jaggedness of the crystal shows the strength of the dragon within the crystals. The more spiked and crazy it looks, the more powerful the beast inside. Now, for the actual Dragons.

Dragons are deceptive from the size of the crystals. The baby dragon the size of a marble is about the size of a human. That gives you an idea of what the crystal the size of a house can turn into. Dragons are also collect information around them as they grow, even as a crystal. A crystal on the earth for about a year has collected the knowledge and understanding of a 5 year-old human child.

Now, Vritras. Vritras are born as humans. They live as humans, love as humans, they are essentially humans. They don't know they are Vritras until they find a dragon crystal. There are two types of crystals. Blank crystals and possessed crystals. Finding a "blank crystal" will transmit a Vritra's personality into the Dragon, and a personality will form in the dragon to accompany it. It can mimic the Vritra's personality, or complement a Vritra's flaws, and the personality will be instantly compatible with that Vritra's personality. Possessed Crystals are abandoned crystals that have dragon with personalities complementing it's first keeper's personality. They can be changed in time, as with human personalities, to soften up to it's new keeper.

We'll use this format.

Personality: Very go lucky and free. Loves to fight.
Background: Kurama is a young man who grew up in a big city. He spent most of his days fairly bored with life, and began playing practical jokes on everyone in his neighborhood. Most people know he's just a joker, but every now and then, a stranger who doesn't get it comes across him. This usually led to a fight, which Kurama always took head on. One day, after a pretty harsh fight, he was kicked out of the city. On his way out, a woman came across him and gave him a map. She smiled and told him, "Set him free." She quickly fled, leaving Kurama staring blankly at the map. He had no family in other cities, so he headed for the cave the map marked.

Name: Zachary Fenne (Call him Zack)
Dragon's Name: Edgey
Element: Water?
Build: Lithe. Skinny but toned.
Appearance: Posted Image
Personality: Slightly cynical, though upbeat. He likes to help those in need, and attacks those who he believes are corrupt, though almost never in a physical sense.
Background: Zack lived his early years in an orphanage. At age five, the owner went broke and the land that the orphanage was on was bought and the building was reworked into a sweatshop, with the orphans as the workers. The new owner still left the tag of an orphanage, however, the orphans were mistreated and starved. Three years after this, Zach ran away, leaving only a flower on the grave of the old owner, who committed suicide not long after the orphanage was bought out. Zack wandered for several days, and almost died of starvation, but he was found by a group of rogues, who fed him and let him join their ranks. For ten years, he traveled with them, learning how to pick locks, pockets, and talk his way out of any trouble. A few weeks ago, the band split up after a sizable heist. Since then, he has been stalking a corrupt individual who has been transporting a rare stone under the guise of a marble in a set for his child. Little does Zack know, that something else is waiting for him with that gem.

EDIT: Heh... Forgot the pic ><

Ok Guys, something I forgot to mention before. You can have your characters have skills like being a bandit and everything, but essentially they are human. No special powers beside being about to control their dragons. But hell, this is still developing, things can change with time.

~Kurama~
Kurama walked down the path calmly as he headed toward the cave on his map. "I wonder what she meant? Set him free? Who's him? Are there going to be guards, monsters? Heh....I CAN'T WAIT!" he said, starting to get over eager. He began to jug down the path.

"Cant wait for what?" Cadence said jumping out of a tree. "So who're you?"

"Hello...skimpy clothes girl." Kurama said, blushing a little at the woman's outfit.

"My name's Kurama Yoko. I'm looking for a cave that some woman gave me a map to."

~Zack~

Zack followed a man down the crowded street carefully. That asshole... Using his own son... He thought. The man he was following was only a carrier. He was early. Zack had used his connections to make the carrier's trip easier than it should have been. That was the set up. He was going to put the courier out for a bit. Long enough so he'd be just in time. Nobody would be the wiser to it.

The courier only had a bag of marbles to deliver. Nothing fancy, but yet... One of those was unique. Not to mention not something the bastard whose son was getting the marbles needed. The thing was pretty inconspicuous, of course. A gift from the man's friend, the owner of an 'orphanage.' The gift was a bag of marbles for the man's son. Both the man and his friend were corrupt soulless bastards. The 'marble' in the bag was worth enough to feed a small town for a few days. Zack didn't want it for himself, but he didn't want it to be in the wrong hands. It was stolen already, of course. Zack was only interested in putting the thing back in the right hands.

The courier went into a back alley. This was Zack's moment. He snuck in behind the man, bottle of chloroform in one hand, rag in the other. He soaked the rag and put it over the youth's mouth and nose. "Sorry buddy, but you just got the wrong job." Zack said as the youth slumped over, unconscious.

"Your clothes make that kinda hard..." Kurama muttered under his breath. He then smiled to the girl.

"Don't worry, I can control myself."

Zack skimmed through the marbles. "Let's see... Ah!" He picked one out. "Here it is... The Medusa's Eye..." He pocketed it. He was about to put down the bag when he felt a sudden compulsion. He looked through the bag and found a strange marble. It glowed with an eerie light. "Odd... My source didn't say anything about this..." He picked up the glowy marble and eyed it. He shrugged. "Oh well." He said, pocketing it as well.

"Right." Kurama went down the path with Cadence, hoping that Koras Crag would be as exciting as he hoped. As he wondered down, he looked towards Cadence, seeing a necklace.

"Hey Candence, right? That's a nice stone you got there." he said, pointing to the necklace.

Zack wandered out of town casually. He looked at the Medusa's eye. "This thing's hot... Better ditch it soon." He said. "Huh... Wait a sec! I know! Koras Crag! The old gang had a base back there! We don't use it anymore, but... Yeah." He pocketed the gem and pulled out the other. It was slightly larger than a normal marble, and looked to have a jagged snowflake pattern on the inside. "Hrm..." He said. "Well, better get going!"

Zack broke into a run, and was at the crag within a few minutes. "The secret entrance is... Here!" He pulled on a stone and a small hole opened up. He went through and it closed behind him. He found himself at the very end of the chamber. He tossed the Medusa's eye on a rock table and lied down with a yawn. "Seems so empty without the guys..." He said.

Kurama sighed. "Jeez, all you think about it me wanting to do stuff to you. I was just complimenting your necklace." Kurama looked ahead to see the Crag's main entrance.

"We'll we're here, let's see what that woman wanted me to find."
