▪ Shydra Wintersbite ▪ ▪ Age: 40 ▪ ▪ Female ▪ ▪ straight ▪ Creator ▪ Shendu Personality Ice is cold and smooth and Shydra is not all that much different. She takes a bit after her creator in the regard that she does not give off an overly kind first impression. Though for anyone who actually knows her they realize this is mostly just because she sees problems with nearly everyone and the world. She has a new way of thinking than many and trying to make people realize the mistakes of this world is no easy task. She has never been happy with her role in life, being just a creation and being unable to do as much as others just because of how she came into being. Creations denied the ability to have children, riders, and many of them just being created because the Elementals felt like it. All because of some rules some old creatures made all those years ago. Times have changed and she wants to lead the way for that change. She believes in a greater power than any of them, more powerful than the Elementals themselves. For where did this land come from and those powerful beings than some greater force that made them all? That is where, Vaseera, The Dragon Mother comes to explain it all. She created the masters of the elements in her image, giving them a round earth like a dragon egg to give birth to all those that appreciate her blessing. She is a devout follower of Vaseera, working to spread her word of joy and equality for all creatures. For more information see Children of the Goddess. Giving her all the more reasons to be against the Riders, Sons and Daughters, and the Elementals that stand above her. For there is no great happiness that can be found when there are those forbidden from pursuing that which brings them happiness. For years she has been in solitude, contemplating the teachings that would come to her. Her childhood was largely tucked deep inside of the Ice Lands where she fasted and contemplated her role in life. She has come forth as a devout worshipper and works to make herself worthy of becoming a great prophet for Vaseera. Though the more that she explores the world the more she realizes one of her true weaknesses, children. While she knows she can never truly be a mother herself, she can find other young creatures to nurture. She has found herself gravitating toward young creatures and minds that she can care for. They especially tend to find it easier to listen to her new teachings though many of their parents and caretakers seem much less eager to have her speak such things to them. Appearance Her body is covered completely in scales like many dragons, able to withstand the ice climate just through her natural resistances. Her body covered in pale blue scales that allow her to blend in fairly well amongst her home within the ice lands. Her accenting darker tail spikes and speckled scales along her body give her a bit of difference in color that sticks out in purely snow covered and icy lands, but can give herself better cover around water. Shydra is not a behemoth, but Shendu would never create a Creation that was not able to defend herself. She stands at a large 3.5 meters at her shoulder ans stretches out to be nearly 20 meters long in total from tail tip to muzzle. Her wing span is an impressive 13 meters. This means that her power lies in her strength and size much more than her ability to maneuver or get into small areas. She always appears to be coated in a fine layer of ice, giving her a very shiny look. It can be difficult sometimes to look directly at her when she stands in the daylight, surrounding her with dazzling lights reflected in the ice. Her primary weapons are those that are natural visible along her threatening physique. Sharp spines run all down her head and around her neck until they end down near the base of her large scaly wings. Right along those scary spikes lie her large horns, for a female, that can be used to gore enemies or to scratch those hard to reach areas. With the mass of spikes along her tail she has quite an impressive natural selection of weaponry to use. Her breath weapon is not fire, but instead a hail of small icicles that bombard her foes with her cold breath and icy shrapnel. Powers Ice Idol- She can create small idols made of ice that are in the shape of herself. These are about the size of a human's fist meaning that many larger creatures will over look them. They are reasonably resistant to melting naturally, though anything like a hot summer's day or a cool day in the fire domain will remove them over time. These are used mostly as a spying tool. So long as the idol remains undamaged it can be activated. For her to activate one she must focus completely, meaning that she is completely vulnerable. But while she focuses she can see and hear as if she was where ever the idol is. She cannot move any of the idol, including the eyes to see anything more than what it is facing. She only gains sight and sound, no other senses carry over. She may only activate one idol at any given time, though she may have any number created so long as they are not found and destroyed. Ice Armor- Being an ice Creation she can very easily be cold and not have any issue. She uses this fully to her advantage. She can coat her scales in a fine layer of ice, which hardens into a small amount of armor on top of her natural scales. Though this also means that her body is naturally slick. Anyone trying to grab hold of her or pin her down will find it rather difficult. This also means that her own touches and grapples will not normally be very effective though it can chill enemies or the environment. played by: RORDRIK ▪ face claim: Wyndbain from doll divine |

History- Viamor is not a Elemental to coddle and care for his Creations for long, knowing that the strong will survive. From the very beginning Shydra knew what it meant to be in the dangers of the world and need to overcome them. From a very young age she grew to be introspective and resentful of her role in life and sought a place for herself in the cold frozen world she had been born to.
These years of mostly solitude led herself down some rather interesting lines of thought, ones that were very rare among Creations and the world. Where had this world first come from? What had come before the Elementals to create them? Her questions seemed to be answered in her dreams. Visions of a huge golden dragoness she had never heard of filled her mind and would not leave it. A sense of calm and joy that she had never found in the rest of her life seemed to accompany her.
After these first few years she began to learn that she was onto something. Every month bringing forth another answer to the problems of the world. Her own thoughts and dreams bringing her the 'truth' as she saw it. It was years of solitude and silence that she put herself through in order to become closer to her deity. So long as she was not called to action by her so called Creator she was happy to be with herself. Until one day that her natural instincts began to kick in.
Being a maturing woman she began to feel the natural calls to go out and seek a mate. That mixed with the teachings of the Dragon Mother made her really believe that there was a problem with the world. No matter what she could do there was no way she was truly going to have any children thanks to the decrees of the Elementals. But that did not stop her from going out and seeking out mating opportunities to try and sate those desires. This earned her quite a few less than kind nicknames from those who disbelieved in her Goddess, but that did not stop her from seeking her happiness.
Though as she tried to settle in with partners, her strange beliefs largely chased off many of her partners that she was able to find. The world was just not ready for the truth. She has gone through several partners now, unable to satisfy her inner desires and that aching emptiness within her. This has only driven her inner hatred for the Elementals all the more, though she follows the teachings of her Mother and avoids violent outbursts as much as possible.
With her partners hard to keep and her beliefs seeming so strange she has now to finally began to adventure outside of the Ice Lands to spread the word of Vaseera. She has kept up her Ice Idols all around to be able to see back on those she has been with and to keep up her nearly Divine knowledge.
