"Myrkhavon is not of the sea; he is the abyss made flesh, and despair made manifest.”
Appearance:
Myrkhavon’s head is serpentine in shape, long and narrow, with a smooth, hydrodynamic curvature that allows him to move swiftly through the water. Measuring 18 feet from the tip of the snout to the base of the cranial crest, his head broadens at the base of his skull to a width of 10 feet, tapering to just 5 feet at the snout. His silhouette evokes the streamlined forms of predatory fish such as barracudas and deep-sea eels, while still retaining his distinctly draconic authority. A sweeping crest extends from the top of his skull, beginning just behind his eyes and arching backward. It spans 7 feet in length, rising to a peak of 3 feet in height. The crest’s jagged edges resemble the branching patterns of coral reefs and taper into delicate, spined tips. The crest acts as a hydrodynamic stabilizer, aiding his movements through strong currents, and as an intimidation display when it glows bioluminescently during combat or dominance rituals. It’s a deep navy blue at the base, blending into vibrant cerulean at the tips, with glowing teal veins running throughout. Its surface is chitinous, with a texture reminiscent of ray cartilage.
Two massive horns emerge from either side of the crest, resembling spiraling coral formations. Each horn measures 5 feet in length, curling outward and upward like the twisted arms of a deep-sea sponge. The horns act as both a defense mechanism and a visual marker of Myrkhavon’s dominion. These horns arch backward, their texture coarse and pitted, perfect for mimicking the natural formations of undersea rock. They’re dark gray, mottled with phosphorescent green and cerulean striations that glow faintly in the depths.
Long and tapered, Myrkhavon’s snout measures 6 feet, with a slight convex ridge running along its length. The snout is narrow and knife-like when closed but can open laterally, expanding to 12 feet wide in a grotesque display inspired by the sarcastic fringehead fish. When flared, the snout reveals fleshy, membranous frills lining its inner edges, glowing faintly with a bioluminescent cerulean hue. This flaring ability is used to intimidate foes, engulf prey, or establish dominance over rivals. The outer surface is armored with dark green and deep navy scales that shimmer faintly, while the inner lining is a vivid crimson streaked with glowing cerulean and teal veins. His jawline is muscular and robust, designed to exert immense crushing force. The lower jaw extends slightly beyond the upper, giving him a predatory underbite. The reinforced structure of his jaw allows him to crush armored prey, split coral, and even shatter ship hulls. The scales along the jaw are thicker and heavily ridged for added protection during combat.
Myrkhavon’s teeth are serrated and recurved, measuring between 12 and 18 inches in length. They are arranged in multiple overlapping rows like those of a great white shark, ensuring any prey caught in his jaws cannot escape. The teeth glint faintly with a pearlescent sheen, adding to their eerily beautiful yet deadly appearance. They’re designed for gripping and tearing flesh, his teeth also assist in demolishing hardened shells and exoskeletons. Forked and prehensile, his tongue measures 8 feet when fully extended. It is lined with fine sensory filaments for detecting chemical signals. The tongue aids in positioning prey within his mouth and tasting the surrounding water for information. It’s a glossy black, with glowing cyan veins that pulse faintly when in use.
Two ridges run along either side of his snout, starting near the nostrils and extending backward to meet the cranial crest. These ridges are dotted with small sensory pits similar to the ampullae of Lorenzini in sharks. The ridges allow Myrkhavon to detect subtle changes in water pressure, electric fields, and chemical signals, making him a masterful hunter even in total darkness. They’re smooth and dark gray, with faint luminous streaks that pulse when he detects prey or threats. Myrkhavon’s eyes are massive, each measuring 2.5 feet in diameter, set deep into his skull and slightly angled forward for precise focus. Hypnotic and glowing, his irises display a gradient of turquoise and gold, spiraling outward like the patterns of bioluminescent jellyfish. The pupils are vertically slitted, capable of dilating to take in the faintest light or contracting to sharp slits in shallow, brightly lit waters. His eyes are perfectly adapted for both the pitch-black depths and the shimmering shallows, giving him unparalleled vision in any aquatic environment.
Elegant, semi-translucent ear fins extend 3 feet outward from either side of his skull, framed by spiny protrusions. These fins enhance his ability to detect changes in water currents and sound waves. They’re teal with cerulean veins, and the fins ripple gently with the movement of water, mimicking the delicate forms of jellyfish tendrils. Retractable frills run along his neck and jawline, expanding outward to a span of 5 feet when fully extended. These frills are thin and membranous, resembling the fins of deep-sea anglerfish. The frills increase oxygen intake and serve as visual displays of aggression or intimidation. Deep crimson, glowing with vivid cerulean and teal patterns that pulse in rhythm with his breathing.
Myrkhavon’s neck is long and sinuous, extending 15 feet from the base of his skull to the beginning of his torso. It tapers gradually from the width of his head to a more slender, muscular structure built for swift and precise movements. He can coil and contort like a sea snake, enabling him to strike at prey or enemies with viper-like speed and accuracy. The musculature is reinforced to handle sudden bursts of motion in strong currents. The upper surface is armored with smaller, overlapping hexagonal scales in shades of deep navy and dark green, merging seamlessly into bioluminescent veins that streak down the sides of his neck. The underside features pale silver and aquamarine scales with faintly glowing cerulean markings. Along his neck, glowing streaks run in intricate, ripple-like patterns resembling the movements of jellyfish, intensifying when he becomes agitated or asserts dominance.
The body is sleek and serpentine, measuring 40 feet in length and tapering smoothly from his chest to the base of his tail. His overall height, when upright in water, reaches 26 feet, with his form balanced and aerodynamic for aquatic traversal. His body is flattened slightly from side to side, like an eel or barracuda, to reduce drag and enhance his ability to glide effortlessly through the water. The dorsal side is cloaked in deep navy and deep green scales, providing camouflage in the ocean depths. The ventral side is reflective, with bright aquamarine and pale silver scales mimicking sunlight filtering through the water, making him harder to detect from below. Swirling, rhythmic cerulean and teal patterns run along the sides of his body, evoking the ghostly beauty of deep-sea jellyfish. These glowing streaks pulse faintly during rest and brighten during swift movements or territorial displays. Portions of his body feature protruding, chitinous ridges and fin-like structures that ripple unnervingly with his movements, giving him an almost alien quality reminiscent of abyssal fish like the gulper eel.
Myrkhavon has two pairs of vestigial legs situated midway along his body, adapted to his aquatic environment. Each leg is muscular yet compact, measuring only 5 feet in length, with webbed talons at the end of each limb. The talons are sharp and retractable, designed for gripping rocky outcroppings or rending prey when necessary. The legs assist in stabilization during sharp turns or while maneuvering through coral reefs, though they remain mostly tucked against his body to minimize drag. The legs are deep navy at the top, with the webbing between the talons glowing faintly in cerulean bioluminescence. The scales covering the legs are smoother than those on his torso, allowing for streamlined movement.
Myrkhavon’s wings are positioned along his mid-back, extending outward from the primary curvature of his spine. Rather than traditional dragon wings, these appendages are broad and fin-like, resembling the pectoral fins of manta rays. Each wing measures 20 feet from base to tip and spans nearly 40 feet when fully extended. The wings are semi-translucent and flexible, with rib-like spines running through them, reminiscent of the fins of flying fish or stingrays. Their edges are serrated, giving them a jagged appearance in motion. The wings serve as both propulsion mechanisms and tools for agility in the water, enabling him to glide effortlessly through currents or perform sudden bursts of speed to ambush prey. When surfaced, they fold tightly against his body to reduce resistance. The upper surfaces of the wings are deep navy and deep green, blending seamlessly with his back. The undersides glow with bioluminescent patterns in cerulean and teal, creating a mesmerizing effect when viewed from below. Their texture is smooth and silky, with a faint sheen like that of jellyfish membranes.
His tail is the longest part of his body, extending 30 feet from the base of his spine to its tapered, finned tip. The tail is broad at its base, narrowing into a whip-like end that is lined with serrated, fin-like ridges on either side. The tail serves as his primary tool for propulsion, allowing him to generate immense bursts of speed. It also doubles as a weapon, capable of delivering devastating strikes to enemies or obstacles in his path. The tail is deep navy and deep green scales cover the dorsal side of the tail, while the underside is aquamarine and pale with glowing cerulean and teal patterns along the fin edges. Along the edges of the tail fins, glowing cerulean and teal lines form wave-like patterns that intensify during rapid movements, leaving an eerie trail of light in his wake. Chitinous ridges and translucent, membranous extensions give the tail an alien, unsettling appearance, reminiscent of creatures like gulper eels and dragonfish
Vocalizations:
Roars: Myrkhavon's roars are deep and resonating, and when released, they are said to shake the waves. His roars begin as a low rumble that growls into an earth-shaking cacophony. They carry the weight of crushing tides and tectonic shifts, reverberating through the ocean as though the very sea protests his fury. His roar may start with a bone-chilling growl and end in a crescendo of an unholy, guttural scream that supposedly twists the water itself.
Growls: A constant, eerie hum that vibrates through the water like the sound of distant earthquakes. His layered growls are akin to the grinding of massive stones beneath the ocean-carrying whispers that are unsettling to those who hear them, bringing an instinctive sense of dread.
Croons: They're haunting and melodic, resembling a mournful underwater song. They carry faint, hypnotic tones with an unworldly rhythm that resonates deep within the listener's chest. His croons are laced with an eerie beauty, a sound so enchanting yet terrifying, like the song of Sirens luring sailors to their doom.
Hisses: They're sharp and serpentine, cutting through the water like a high-pitched wave slicing through the depths. They echo with danger-a predator's warning that even the smallest disturbance irks his wrath.
Rumbles: Myrkhavon's ambient sounds resemble the shifting underwater tectonic plates; a persistent vibration that makes the water heavy and oppressive. These rumbles may carry an unsettling pulse as if his very breath disturbs the balance of the waters.
Voice: Myrkhavon’s voice, when speaking, is deep and reverberant, like the voice of the ocean given form. It is cold and commanding, with an unyielding authority that brooks no defiance. His words echo and linger, as if the currents themselves carry his voice further than natural sound could travel. A slow, deliberate cadence, every word weighted as though it were carved from stone. His speech is layered, with subsonic undertones and faint, ghostly harmonics that evoke the whispers of the abyss.

Diet:
I. Giant Marine Creatures
Myrkhavon preys on colossal sea life, such as whales, giant squid, and massive schools of tuna. These creatures provide him with the bulk sustenance he requires to maintain his immense size and power. His hunting style resembles that of an orca, where precision and speed are key in delivering a swift, incapacitating strike. Their sheer mass offers high nutritional value, necessary for a being of his magnitude.
II. Abyssal Predators
Creatures of the deep, like anglerfish, gulper eels, and viperfish, also fall into Myrkhavon’s diet. As an apex predator of the abyss, he consumes even other hunters of the deep to establish dominance. Their unique biochemistry—adapted to survive in crushing pressure—infuses Myrkhavon with vitality suited for his abyssal home.
III. Shipwreck Spoils
Myrkhavon scavenges the wreckage of ships that he sinks, consuming both the sailors and the supplies they carry. Grain, meat, and even treasures swallowed during his rampages become part of his diet. This is an opportunistic source of food, symbolizing his disdain for human interference while recycling the spoils of conflict
IV. Plankton and Small Creatures (Supplemental)

═══════ ≪ ༺༻ ≫ ═══════
"The deep itself obeys his call. Myrkhavon is no mere dragon; he is the will of the ocean, the harbinger of its endless wrath."
Abilities:
I. Bioluminescent Deception
Inspired by deep-sea creatures like anglerfish, Myrkhavon can emit hypnotic lights from his scales or eyes, creating an eerie glow that lures prey or confuses enemies. The light can also create phantasms of other creatures or illusions of safety. This enables him to hunt without confrontation, draw prey into traps, or disorient attacking forces. The hypnotic light can paralyze weaker minds temporarily. Ineffective against foes who shield their vision or fight blindly. Overuse can briefly dim the glow of his scales, making him vulnerable to ambush. Can be used repeatedly but requires an hour of recovery after prolonged use to recharge his energy reserves.
II. Abyssal Cry
Myrkhavon unleashes a sonic roar that travels through water, creating shockwaves capable of shattering hulls, disabling aquatic life, and disorienting enemies. The roar also stirs the water around him into violent turbulence. The soundwave can travel great distances underwater, serving as both an attack and a warning. The shockwave’s force grows stronger in confined spaces like trenches. Although, it's ineffective in the air, with its power greatly reduced in shallow waters. The defending cry can temporarily dull his senses. It requires several hours to recover the energy needed for another roar.
III. Tidal Singularity
Myrkhavon can create a swirling vortex of water that acts as a gravitational sink, drawing in everything around it—debris, creatures, or entire vessels. At the vortex’s core lies crushing, inescapable pressure. It's highly destructive against groups of enemies or fleets, pulling them into an aquatic “black hole.” Effective for controlling wide areas of battle. The singularity lasts only a few minutes before dissipating, leaving Myrkhavon temporarily drained. He must avoid direct combat until his energy stabilizes. A full day is required for this catastrophic ability to be used again.
IV. Chameleonic Submersion
Mimicking the stealth of deep-sea creatures, Myrkhavon can blend into his surroundings by altering the texture and color of his scales. He becomes nearly invisible in the shadows of the deep. It's perfect for ambushing prey, retreating unnoticed, or stalking enemies. Undetectable by most forms of light or sonar. However, it requires calm and stillness to maintain the effect, rendering him unable to attack while camouflaged. Prolonged use drains his energy. Takes several hours to recover, especially after extended use during high-energy conflicts
V. Apex Ambush
Myrkhavon channels the predatory instincts of creatures like sharks and orcas, launching himself with incredible speed and force out of the water. This leap allows him to attack flying enemies, crush aerial ships, or deliver devastating blows to vessels from below, splitting them in half. The attack is nearly impossible to predict due to its speed and force. His momentum can take out multiple targets in a single strike, and the sheer power can destroy even armored vessels. It requires a deep body of water for maximum effectiveness. The effort temporarily leaves him exposed mid-air, creating a moment of vulnerability before he reenters the water. A 30-minute recharge is required, during which Myrkhavon remains submerged to recover the energy needed for another powerful leap.
VI. Crushing Depths
Inspired by the intense pressure of oceanic trenches, Myrkhavon can summon the crushing force of deep-sea pressure within a localized area. This ability can implode ships, incapacitate creatures, or pin down enemies in an unbearable, invisible grip. It's devastating against armored enemies or structures, and extremely difficult to resist once it takes effect. Underwater, the power amplifies naturally due to existing pressure. Limited to targets within a close radius, requiring proximity. Prolonged use can exhaust Myrkhavon’s reserves of energy. After a sustained use, it takes six hours to restore the energy needed to summon this pressure again.
VII. Tide Manipulation
Myrkhavon commands the tides, summoning massive walls of water or whirlpools capable of swallowing entire fleets. He can redirect ocean currents to create barriers, traps, or devastating tsunamis. This power demonstrates unparalleled control over large-scale aquatic forces, devastating to both land and sea. It’s particularly effective in defending his territory or overwhelming enemies with sheer force. Limited to bodies of water; its effectiveness decreases in smaller water sources like rivers or lakes. Requires concentration, leaving him vulnerable during the summoning. Takes a day to fully recharge, as it expends significant energy to bend the ocean to his will.
Strengths:
I. Abyssal Camoflauge
Drawing inspiration from deep-sea creatures, Myrkhavon can blend seamlessly with the dark waters, moving undetected while stalking his prey. This ability makes him an unparalleled predator, capable of striking without warning.
II. Master of Oceanic Forces
Myrkhavon possesses unparalleled control over aquatic forces, such as tides, currents, and underwater pressure. His ability to summon devastating whirlpools and towering waves makes him a formidable force in his domain.
III. Psychological Dread
Myrkhavon’s reputation alone is enough to weaken his enemies. The fear he instills before battle disrupts the morale of his adversaries, giving him a psychological edge long before any confrontation begins. His aura of dread reflects his regal arrogance, an unwavering belief in his supremacy as the embodiment of the abyss.
IV. Unyielding Will
Myrkhavon’s resolve is absolute; he is relentless in pursuing his goals and protecting his domain. No obstacle—be it mortal, divine, or elemental—can deter him once his mind is set. This unwavering determination makes him a force of persistence, capable of outlasting opponents and executing plans over centuries. His patience ensures victory, even in long conflicts
V. Intellect of the Watery Realms
Myrkhavon possesses an unparalleled understanding of both freshwater and saltwater domains. From knowing the labyrinthine paths of river systems to the hidden trenches of the deep ocean, he has mapped the entirety of aquatic terrains within his vast mind. This allows him to navigate and manipulate any water-based environment to his advantage. His vast intellect gives him a strategic edge, as he can exploit the specific traits of his environment, whether it’s using the deadly stillness of a swamp or the crushing currents of the open sea.
Weaknesses:
I. Reliance on Water
Myrkhavon’s abilities are deeply tied to water, making him far less effective on land or in dry environments. His influence diminishes significantly away from his domain. Land-based enemies who lure him into dry areas can exploit this limitation.
II. Isolation
Myrkhavon’s aloof and solitary nature keeps him distant from allies and unwilling to form bonds with others who aren't his rider(s), even with other oceanic creatures. His isolation makes him vulnerable to coordinated attacks and blinds him to external events beyond his realm.
III. Arrogance
Myrkhavon’s belief in his supremacy blinds him to the capabilities of lesser beings. This arrogance can make him dismissive of potential threats. Underestimating opponents could lead to strategic missteps, leaving him exposed.
IV. Bound to the Waters
As a creature of the water, he struggles in brightly lit or shallow waters, where his abilities and camouflage lose potency. Enemies who confront him in such areas can reduce his effectiveness and force him to retreat.
V. Energy Intensive Powers
His strongest abilities—like creating maelstroms or summoning tidal waves—require significant energy and long recovery periods. He is susceptible to counterattacks during cooldown phases when he is temporarily drained.

Backstory:
The Birth of Myrkhavon
Myrkhavon's story began in the Abyssal Maw, a colossal trench buried deep within the ocean, where even the gods dared not tread. It was said that the Maw itself was alive. A living vortex of shadows and crushing pressure from its core, Myrkhavon emerged. Born during a cataclysmic alignment of stars that made the waters churn in upheaval. It's said he wasn't a mere dragon but the embodiment of the abyss itself. His first breaths carried the rumble of tectonic plates and the hum of the abyss’s eternal currents. The waters that birthed him carried ancient power, granting him dominion over the tides, the currents, and the secrets buried far beneath the surface. From the moment of his birth, he was destined to reign as the protector of the deep.
The Period of Life: Myrkhavon's Reign
For centuries, Myrkhavon guarded the depths with an unyielding will. He forged an empire beneath the waves, becoming a figure of myth and terror. Sailors whispered legends of his shadow crossing beneath their ships, the pressure of his presence snapping hulls as if they were twigs. Entire fleets vanished into oblivion, drawn into whirlpools that bore his mark. Those who escaped carried tales of glowing eyes in the darkness and an unearthly roar that churned the ocean itself.
Myrkhavon’s power extended beyond the physical realm. He was said to carry the knowledge of the ocean’s deepest secrets—ancient ruins, lost civilizations, and forgotten treasures. This knowledge, however, weighed heavily upon him, leading to periods of solitude where he retreated to the Abyssal Maw to brood and contemplate. Though feared and respected by all creatures of the sea, Myrkhavon’s reign was not without challenge. Rival dragons and meddlesome mortals attempted to disturb his dominion, but all who dared fell to the wrath of the abyss.
Myrkhavon’s connection to the abyss made him eternal yet isolated. His intelligence and control were unmatched, but his solitude shaped him into a being of cold, calculated power. Over time, he became less a dragon and more a myth—an entity whispered of in cautionary tales and prayers to ocean gods.
