Xen the deathclaw
Posted 4 years agoXen is a proud member of a rather specific deathclaw species, a result of science and chance and a lot of experimenting that created a strain of deathclaws capable of self awareness and some level of intelligence. Still far from that of an average human being mind you but still a break through that seemed impossible at times past.
He was born into a big family, a pack of several dozen deathclaws that had taken shelter in an abandoned, underground vault. He learned much and more from his pack mates and the various machines still operational within the vault, his curiosity knew no bounds as a hatchling especially when it came to the surface world. It wasn't until a rather difficult choice presented itself to him that he was separated from his pack for he was not always green and glowing, an accident resulted in him being burried far beneath the earth in a cave rich with uranium.
How much time passed since Xen emerged and gazed upon the surface again wasn't known but when he did, he was changed both inside and out, becoming much closer to his feral cousins then he has ever been before due to his isolation and this didn't change until he had contact with other surface dwellers not of his species through rather inconvenient means and by that I mean he was captured by raiders and brought to their camp. He was wild at first but with little to do in his restrained state, he observed the others, their actions and interactions for hours on end and eventually, parts of him started to resurface again and he regained what he had once lost.
It wasn't long until someone took notice that what they thought was a mindless predator was something more, in fact, it was in this forsaken place that Xen found his very first friend and how he regained his freedom with their help. Alas, his once boundless curiosity was taking over once more and with no ties to keep him and no alpha to tell him what to do, he set out to learn more of the world just like he had always wanted.
That settles it for Xen!

Helitor the dragon
Posted 5 years agoI will be creating five journals just like this one, featuring my OC's and as I do, adding their references and info.
So Heli, short for Helitor. A fire dragon with some earth dragon blood in him. He originates from a land that used to be cut off from the rest of the world, a place where a bunch of runaway dragons decided they were tired of war, pain and loss, creating a settlement high in the mountains far away from anybody else, becoming monks of peace in a land that was almost trying to make life as easy and happy as possible for the ones living there. As one born into this peaceful dragon tribe, he adopted their beliefs and practices, harboring them even as he left after the tribe's demise. The true story behind how the tribe managed to survive on its own for so long? A story for another time.
Currently, he is a drifter, going from place to place and searching for his fortune. Having met so many people on his travels, he eventually managed to adapt his teachings to help other people, becoming a spiritual healer... But healing the spirit is not the only thing he is capable of if he is cornered, what he can heal he can also destroy.
