Appearance:
Illinto is a smaller dragon, standing at 16 feet tall, she is often dwarfed by other dragons her age and older. Build with a litheness that other's aren't often gifted, her body is long and agile. Flexibly beyond belief as though she was made of mist. Her long, slender legs make up the majority of her height. Her neck is long and elegant as well, but only adds another two foot onto her height from the shoulder. Her serpentine shape is perfect for her specialisation.
Illinto's scales are a shadowy muted purple on her rear end, starting from the end of her ribcage to her tail, her front half from heat to end of ribcage is covered with milky irridescent scales before reaching her stomach plates that are pliable. Her stomach place colour matches that of the scales in the area it is on her body like a gradient. While the white beginning at her ribcage is brighter in its shimmer, the irridescence is carried throughout her whole form like a sheen. Her wings are attached by the main arm and the webbing runs along her flanks, attached there too. The membrane is also a lighter colour at the tips, darker at the origins close to the arm, just shy of that pearly white of her front half. The edges of the membranes are adorned with tiny almost invisible hair.
Her head is narrow, pointed like an arrow for dynamics. Her shorter horns, shaped like that of a blackbuck are aimed caudally. One other small set of horns grace her temples, short and sharp. Her teeth are long and deadly, narrow and angled backwards as to keep her grip on her prey, if it struggles to escape, they will simply sink further onto her fangs. While her face looks gentle, with a pair of lilac eyes that carry a softness, those fangs change her appearance the second her mouth opens into something sinister. The pupils of her eyes are feline like that of other dragons, but they're blurred when at full dilation, the edges of the black blurring into the lilac of the iris. Her sclera is black as the night and contral the white scales surrounding them greatly.
Along her back run short but needle sharp scales, they run all down her spine until half way down her tail. This is where her bladed tail begins. On the underside of half of her tail is a sickeningly sharp blade-like scale. Reaching a point so fine, it is barely visible with the naked eye.
Illinto's voice is soft, etheral and her words are followed by a gentle echoing no matter their environment. Rarely raising in volume when she angers, she instead opts for fierceness through tone and venomnous words.
Callisto has gifted Illinto with many trinkets and jewellry. She refuses to wear anything that makes sound, so she has many chains and beautiful necklaces that adorn her nest. But on her body she wears silver cuffs on her two main horns. The base of her neck sporting a similar thinner cuff with a dipped point at the front. Illinto's ears are long and pretty, she had Callisto install earrings. On her left ear are two small silver studs and one hanging jay feather. On the right is similarly one small silver stud and two silver loops closer to her head.
Personality:
Observant | Perceptive | Quiet | Etheral | Distant | Devoted | Enchanting | Steadfast | Noble | Careful | Independent | Unforgiving | Confident | Protective | Loyal | Gentle | Swift | Reliable | Thoughtful | Distinctive | Strong-willed
Illinto is a quiet observer of her environment, using the information she gathers to analyse the people around her. Ensuring she is fully aware of the current circumstances. She carries an air of other-worldliness around her, hanging like a cloud. These activities often means she is standing on her own in a group setting rather than participating in the larger conversation.
If angered, she seethes. Bubbling beneath the surface before she lashes out with harsh words, her tone insulting and cruel. But never loud. Her voice is never raised above that of quiet conversational volume, it is uncertain if this is by choice or by biology.
She would protect Callisto with her life, she has done in the past and will do in the future. Illinto is ferociously protective of her rider and is very aggressive to new comers to his social circle. If the creature shows little interest in her rider, she treats them as per her normal personality.
Abilities:
Swift Death; Using the long blade on her tail, Illinto descends from the sky at breakneck speeds. Twirling her body into a twisting frenzy, she unleashes the momentum through her strong tail and into her victim, slicing them.
Screech; Taking in a deep breath, Illinto emits an ear-piercing call. Sounding like a mixture of an eagle and a roar, she aims it at her victim. Momentarily confusing them and disorienting them, allowing for her to make an attack or an escape.
Redirection; She can manipulate the sound waves around her. If a rock were to fall to her left, she can make it sound like it fell to her right. Very useful in navigating around enemies and tricking them into the wrong area for a surprise attack.
Deafen; Similar to screech except, it is not as pinpoint. Instead, a high pitched scream comes from her and temporarily deafens all surrounding creatures. If subjected to this multiple times, one can go deaf. She rarely uses this as Callisto is often with her and she would never do anything to harm him.
Strengths & Weaknesses:
Strengths
1. Speed; Illinto is incredibly fast, like an arrow flying from its bow, she can launch into the night and vanish into the darkness within a second. Unmatched in this regard, she can escape tricky situations with this skill or descend upon her foe before they even knew they were dead.
2. Silence; Going hand-in-hand with her speed, Illinto is silent in flight and damn near close to silent on foot. The tiny hairs on the edge of her wings help dull the sounds of her flight.
3. Sharp; Her biggest defence is the large blade on her tail which she can use to slice through enemies. Along her back, the sharp spines stab into any part of the creature attacking her from that angle.
4. Flexible; Illinto's bones are spongy and can bend. She can compress her ribs to slip through small spaces and twist her body in unnatural ways that are uncomfortable to watch.
Weaknesses
1. Physical Strength; Illinto is not physically strong, she has toned muscles, but nothing compared to other bulkier dragons. She could be bitten in half if a larger dragon got a hold of her.
2. Size; While it may have its uses sometimes, being small often means being picked on or teased. Even worse, the target of an attack.
3. Fragile Teeth & Spines; Illinto's snake-like teeth may be deadly, but bent in the wrong way, they can snap. The same goes for the spines that run along her back. She can heal these wounds, but the teeth take longer to replace.
4. Very vulnerable underside; Her pliable belly scales are extremely vulnerable to attack. While they allow her great flexibility, a wound here could be fatal.
