Quote 	“Look, when I think of the big question, I don’t think of life, I think of sentience, but right now, I feel like I could, use a nap.”
Cogwheel is a tribe less robotic dragon who likes to invent things. He has several unique abilities, and, despite being a machine, he can talk normally, and do things you wouldn’t expect a machine to be able to do, like crying eating and drinking liquids.
== Description ==
=== Appearance ===
Both him and his creation have the same appearance. He has the average dragon body, along with grand magnificent wings. He has white steel scales. His underbelly is made of black metal plates. His wings, horns, talons and back spikes are also black. He has a black forked tongue, and black eyes. Hey also has a long tail. In addition to is main eyes, he has there smaller eyes, like the ones on bugs, on his forehead to give him 180° vision.
He wears a teal vest and tool belt. He also sports a pair of teal googles on his head. These googles and darken, also serving as welding googles. He also uses these when he’s in flight. He wears a teal backpack that contains various tools he uses. He is also not the biggest dragon, actually being quite small, just bigger than scavenger.
=== Abilities ===
Because of Cog’s “type,” he posses several unique abilities. Since they are not tribal abilities, these will be on a list rather than being mentioned in a paragraph.
* Jet Engines - His wings alone aren’t enough to help him fly because he is made of metal. As a result, there are a set of twin jet engines that emerge from a set of doors his back every time he flies. These jet engines are very efficient, with a medium amount of fuel able to sustain one month’s worth of flight (not that he’s goin got fly for one month straight).
* Camera Eyes - Due to him being a machine, his eyes are cameras. This comes with a set of abilities on its own.
** Heat/Night Vision - He can use both heat and night vision, making seeing in the dark or difficult weather no problem.
** Eye Lamps - His eyes also function as flashlights, serving a similar purpose to the aforementioned abilities, with the main difference being that it allows others to see, and is less effective in certain conditions. His eye lamps have different levels for brightness, focus and can either stay fixed or can flash.
** Magnification - His eyes being cameras, he can magnify his vision, allowing him to see closer than most dragons. The maximum magnification factor is 20, with the minimum being -5.
** Interchangeable eyes - In the scenario one of his eyes gets damaged, he can pop it out and a put a new one in its place.
** Scanning - Using his eyes, he can scan anyone and anything. He can get ideas on what they could possibly be thinking by body or facial language. He can also scan for any weapons or items that might be of danger. Sure, anyone can look. But he can scan for items and detail, usually getting information on their properties.
** Projection - His eyes can project images, both 2D and holographic.
* Hearing - He has enhanced hearing.
* Smell - He can recognize more smells and can smell form further away that average dragon can.
* Aquatic Mode - Aquatic mode is a special mode that he activates every time he goes into water.
** Propellers - Like to his jet engines, they also emerge from a compartment in his back. He uses propellers for water propulsion. They’re not extremely fast, but they get the job done. These use electricity for power.
** Frills. His frills emerge from the sides of his head. Like his wings, the webbing is black. The frills aren’t just for aesthetics; they also allow him to hear (but not emit) eco location.
* Solar Wings - Like a LeafWing’s, his wings act as solar panels. Again, like a LeafWing’s, this is not a substitute for sleeping, or eating, but it allows him to stay energized for longer.
* Like most dragons, he can breath fire.
=== Needs ===
Being a machine comes with its own special needs, which are listed down below:
* Upgrades - Some of his body parts (namely his jet engines and propellers) need to be upgraded and repaired from time to time.
* Metal powder - He has made a special powder, or seasoning more accurately, that he places on his food every time he eats something. This “seasoning” contains necessary metals and minerals that he needs to function. He won’t die without these, but he won’t be in the best of states.
* Coolant replacement - Although his body secretes the coolant that acts as blood, a “filtration session” should be done every once in a while. Again, it won’t kill him if it doesn’t happen, but it will help.
* Refueling - Obviously his jet engines run on fuel. Without it, he can not fly. He needs a refuel every now and then.
=== Personality === 
Cogwheel as a clam, temperate, enthusiastic, proud and somewhat cheerful personality. He can get lazy at times. He likes to invent and make things. He also likes to repair items. Aside from these things, he also recycles and reuses any salvageable material in one of his works.
He keeps a set schedule and routine. He is an efficient dragon usually, getting things done. He also stays true to himself and others. He will always try to keep a promise he has made, as he does not like breaking promises. He also does not like liars, and will try to avoid lying himself.
He has a high spirit and tries to get something done, even if it his hard. He does not believe in limits. Also thinks highly of himself. Not in the arrogant “I’m better than everyone else” way, but in the “I have done so much,” way. Some of his inventions turn out to be wacky or a failure. Even so, he tends to be proud of his work and effort as in saying, “So, maybe it didn’t work out, but I did something. I made it come to life and I tried, and that’s what I’m proud of. It wasn’t perfect, but it was something.”
== Life ==
=== Trades and Occupations ===
Cogwheel participates in a variety of jobs, mainly those involving the art of the trade. Jobs that are hands on and require skill. His main job is engineering, usually involving machines and robotics. He also works as a welder and repair man. He also likes to invent things in his spare time. He has many great concepts, though some of his inventions turn out a little wacky.
Cogwheel also likes to recycle and reuse materials, primarily for use. He tends to go diving into large piles of rubbish in search anything of use, like wires or bolts and nuts. He usually comes out very dirty, covered in filth, snout to tail. He also has skills in woodworking. He often builds things made of wood, for both pleasure, and to make some profit. He has a large collection of various things he has worked on.
One of his more unusual jobs is dragonet sitting. He is very good with dragonets, knowing how to take care of them very well. It’s a job he takes to ensure is remains social and builds relations with other dragons.
=== Residence ===
He lives on Pyrrhia near the old night Kingdom on the outskirts of the ChessWing kingdom. His house is made of bricks and is a size closer to an apartment. There is the main living room, with a kitchen being towards the back, next to the dining area. There are also two rooms, one of them acting as a storage, the other being his bedroom. Connected to his house are a set of garage like spaces, which he uses as his shop, and can be seen in there regularly.
== Relations ==
=== Family ===
He has no biological family, though Coral can be considered is (de facto) relative.
=== Friends ===
He has many friends, many of them interested in things similar to him. 
* Ratchet (Hypno) - Cog and Ratchet are both friends due to them sharing many similar interest. Both spend their time talking about engineering, inventing, machines and topics of similar nature.
* !!Enigma!! - Both of them maintain friendly relations. Enigma helps Cog by giving him necessary repairs and upgrades.
* Cadence - Both of them share many similar personality traits.
* Knack - Both of them were artificially created.
* Uzi - He thinks she nice, though she gives him some vibes, as if he countered someone, or something similar to her before. He can’t put his talon on it and just doesn’t give a thought about it.
== Lore ==
Once there was a man. A brilliant man who loved dragons. He was a prodigy, learning to read when he was just 2 years old. He had an IQ of 272. He was so busy with his research and studies that, he never had anyone for a friend. So he set to create a companion for himself. The greatest project in his life, he considered. 
A robotic dragon, capable of normal speech, with great abilities and capabilities. Able to do anything a biotic organism can. Able to go underwater. Very very intelligent. One of the most power things ever created. A potential weapon. A powerful devastating weapon. A weapon to take over the world…
“Other” powers found out about this. And they wanted it for their own purposes. So they kidnapped him. After a whole movie style adventure, Coral, as his original companion was named, managed to save him. But he was of old age and close to death. But there was another unit, similar to Coral. One that was ready. Coral, had an idea
