Ragnar is quite the sight, indeed.
This magnificent beast is quite large, both in size and in length. With his wings extended out to their fullest, he may just be the biggest dragon you'll ever see.
With a more serpentine body rather than a more blockier, and sturdier build, Ragnar has a longer body, his wingspan doubling that. Standing at 18½ft tall, measuring 22ft in length, and with a wingspan of 26ft. Ragnar has a more snake-like body build, and because so, he has narrower shoulders, hips and shoulders, and quite lanky. Small stomach, his chest seems to hang lower than his stomach ever will. You'd think, a dragon with the stomach of a cow, it'd hang so much lower! But this is not the case. Who knows where all that food goes?
As large as his wings may be, not everything can be colorful, inside and out. [ sad face :( ] If you were standing above Ragnar, you would see his wings matching the base of his body, a smoky charcoal black, but if you were to stand underneath him, you would see the gold and smoky black colors mixing together, giving his wings a smoky, dull look. Almost like a butterfly.
Unlike other dragons, Ragnar does not just a singular row of teeth. With a teethy smile, it looks like he has normal dragon teeth, but when his jaw is wide open, hanging above from your head, you can see the second row of teeth peeking behind the first row. It's a smaller set of teeth, but twice as sharp, giving him an even tighter grip when handling difficult prey. Just like any other predator, when they latch their teeth into flesh, their teeth pierce the skin and continue to rip as the victim pries themselves out of the jaws of their enemy. However, with teeth like Ragnar's, it's not as easy. Instead of his teeth sliding and ripping through his prey's flesh, his teeth do not move. No one knows how, as it doesn't truly make clear sense, but it seems that the second row of sharper teeth grip the unfortunate soul's skin even tighter, securing its spot in the flesh. And if they are to try to tear away, they may as well be skinning themselves alive.
Ragnar is a large dragon, yes? So one would expect such a large beast to make quite the racket. This is not the case. As if his insides are hollow, made of air, this creature can stalk along the shadows, creep upon rotten & squeaky wood, and even walk through Fall's fallen leaves. Not a peep. Ragnar has large and long, but agile legs, easily maneuverable. During the flight, well. He can look real funky, but it works out for him in the end. When this dragon first takes off, he has two versions. First, he leaps into the air, his large wings thrusting him upwards, shooting himself straight into the sky, his body wading back and forth as his wings carry him high. Or, he climbs into the air. To do so, he must have a running start. Once he has an easy going, running start, he leaps into the air, his wings hoisting him into the air and his legs move in a pattern as if he is climbing an invisible mountain for a good minute or two. It's funky looking, but if he weren't moving his legs in such a manner, his take-off would be much slower. But at the same time, he looks badass.

Ragnar is certainly... different. He can be one dragon, and the next, an absolute stranger. Not a personality disorder, it's just how he is.
When he is out in public, or simply just being his ordinary self, Ragnar isn't exactly the friendliest of the bunch. Grow too close, he'll let out one hissing warning, and if you refuse to heed it, your in a whole heap of trouble. Like many others, this particular dragon prefers his own personal space, and when you intrude, he'll react just like any other. Just.. with a little more bite. This is probably where Ragnar's aggression firstly arose as a sub-adult. As a younger dragon, he was completely fine, no aggression, no snarkiness, nadda. Then again, he was also living a sheltered life with his parents, whom never let him see the outside world. In doing so, he was a kind, polite, and understanding young dragon in a vicious world. But when his parents left mysteriously one day, his entire world changed. It was time for reality to settle in, and then came in the aggression, the solitude, the anger. It was a treacherous transition indeed, it could have been nicer, but this world does not know such kindness. Just simply a week or two in this world tore the kindness from his very soul, leaving him broken. But eventually, he grew. He grew from that weak and pathetic state, and grew into a prouder, tougher dragon. No longer does he cry at the sight of his decaying loved ones, or pout when he is wounded. No, such emotions are weaknesses here.
His aggression does not do his darkside any justice. Snapping jaws, a few swipes here and there, and snide remarks, are to any extent what his real rage is. If you ever feared a dragon's rage, seeing this beast in action will give you nightmares. An unbeatable rage, this dragon can and will disembowel anything. Humans, animals of the forest, and even his own fellow dragons. But. He is no mindless killer, he does not mindlessly kill everything in his own path. If he sees that you deserve such a death, then he will make sure sure you die one. And if you are lucky enough to see the signs that he believes such a thing, you better run far and fast. His anger is feared among many, and very few attempt to stand up to him. Those who dare to stand up, and end his madness, well. There really isn't much left of them once he is done with them.
As if his aggression was scary enough, just looking into this giant's eyes, sends your skin crawling. He doesn't need to move, he doesn't need to breathe or blink. If he makes eye contact with some unfortunate soul, he can send their heart into a panic frenzy, and send them screaming for the hills. Or, if they are brave enough to whistand his gaze, they'll surely shiver in their boots. Is it because of his souless stare? Or the intimidating aura that seems to follow him everywhere he goes? You can almost smell the aura of death and depression that tails Ragnar.
---
Ragnar's personality is quite predictable, when he is out and about with the public, where everyone can see him, and watch his every move. But behind the scenes, where he is alone with his loved ones, he turns into the biggest softy.
Ragnar could be considered an overprotective mother, keeping his loved ones close, comforting them to the best of his abilities. If they seem upset, sad or angry, he would cuddle them until their very eyes popped out of their eye sockets. He'd wrap them in his scaly arms, and snuggle the little life out of them. Too bad he doesn't have any children, he would be the best dad ever. But in all seriousness, this dragon has a soft side like no other. Maybe his aggression clouds most of hid judgement and actions, but beneath the anger, the hatred, he truly he is a good dragon. It's just a bit more difficult for his goodside to surface when all he's known is hatred.
This dragon has loyalty like no other, it may just be the end of him. Once you gain his trust, and his respect, he'll honor your name till the wend of his days. He'll guard you while you sleep, and keep the nightmares at bay. He'll follow you to the ends of the world. He is willing to do just about anything for you, as long as it is within reason. He may be loyal, but his does not dare to become blindly loyal to anyone. Blind loyal is a death sentence in his eyes, because you are blind of the consequences to your actions, and that is a giant dealbreaker between the two. He'll follow you within reason, as long as what you are doing is justified, he's willing to do anything. He may be a giant softy, loyal puppy. But he knows when the line musn't be crossed.

Abilities:
Shockwave
Shockwave is a horrifying, ear-splitting screech that destroys and kills everything in its wake. It has a maximum 3-mile radius, but only if he has been charging for a long while. If you are farther from him, you have a better chance of surviving the Shockwave, but if you are within that 1 mile, the probability of dying is very great. If you are within the radius of the Shockwave, electricity pools into your veins, and eventually, it makes its way into your brain and will fry it. Literally. Electrocutes you from the inside out. But if you are lucky enough, you'll hear it coming, and get the hell out of the way. Before he strikes, a loud, high-pitched whining stirs in the air just before he bellows his shockwave. It's almost impossible not to hear. When used, this ability causes temporary damage. Inability to breathe electric fire, to verbally speak, to eat or drink, and physical pain in his jaws, throat, and chest. As this ability is so powerful, it burns his insides when being used, and it's impossible to do basically anything while. These damages do not heal quickly in the slightest, it takes a minimum of 4 days to heal. 4 days without food or water, without speaking, without basically anything coming out or in of those powerful jaws.
Electric Fire
Just like any other dragon, this Storm Dragon to has fire. However, it is nothing like ordinary fire, no. As if a thundering storm was created deep within this giant's chest, lighting spews from this creature's jaws, striking anything in its path. Before this little storm of electric fire, residing deep within his chest, a loud, deep crackling can be heard just before the chaos. It can pierce the strongest of steel, and take down buildings made of stone. When used, this ability drains his physical strength, depending on how much, and how long he uses his electric fire. If he overuses this ability, it will drain all of his strength, to the point where he couldn't stand.
Stormbringer
It's as if Lightning itself obeys Ragnar with no hesitation. This ability is strong, and deathly powerful, and used in the wrong hands, could cause massive destruction to the world. Ragnar can use Lighting against it's own will, bend it back and forth, send it straight to the Earth's core, light cities aflame. He can do basically whatever he pleases. When Ragnar uses this ability, thunder storm clouds swarm in the sky above, great thunder and lighting cackle continuously, lightning swarms Ragnar, bouncing on and off of his scales. And when he decides who he wishes to fry, lightning from the sky strikes down, demolishing it's opponent. While in use, his eyes turn a white, golden hue and glow with electric sparks, his pupil no longer visible. Not everything comes free however. Thankfully, this ability does not physically cause this dragon pain, but takes away his ability to use his other abilities.
