Seek

S E E K 
seek is a nightwing dragonet who was introduced in ghost town.
 APPEARANCE
an ordinary dragonet, one that would not stand out among a crowd. 
black patterns swirl over dark, smoky gray scales, as typical of a common nightwing. a paler, softer shade of gray paints his underbelly, mixed with hues of blue and purple. lighter colored spines jut out from his neck, fading into lighter colors. 
a pair of long, straight horns protrude from his skull, a dark gray color that could be mistaken for black. towards the tips, it gradually lightens into a paler shade of gray, matching his spines and underbelly color. 
wide ice-blue eyes stand out from his otherwise plain scales, always wide with a few tears gathering in the corners. perhaps it is his eyes that give away everything - the infinite loneliness, the misery, the regret. 
 PERSONALITY
* sentimental, always longs for the past
* generally wishes that life was more simple, more calm
* paranoid fool. he knows it, but he can't help it. 
* cried a lot, was made fun of because of it. 
** pretty stoic and aloof because of that. tries not to show any emotions. but he's quite bad at it. 
* just... looking for meaning in his life. for a miracle to make it okay again. 
 HISTORY
* appeared in the orphanage when he was four
* kind of just lonely. also was a generally quiet kid so nobody really noticed them
* met charaxes, a strange little hybrid mutt full of hopeful joy
* became friends really fast
** think of the quiet kid who sits at the back of the class with the brightest and most cheerful kid who sits in the front row. you get the idea
* always was a bit worried about chara's tendency to get into trouble
* one day the silly hybrid took it a bit too far when they accidentally pranked their mistress. oops. 
* mistress told everyone that chara was getting adopted. turns out, they were not. 
* seek was kind of sad and had this little idea that he could follow chara to their new home. surely chara's adoptive parents would take pity on him and take him in too
* uh oh. bad idea
* finds out that the mistress actually killed chara. seek was horrified
* the mistress swore him to secrecy. out of fear, seek agreed. he held the secret in his heart until he couldn't anymore. it was too much, the guilt too crushening
* with shaky talons, he crept up to the mistress' room and killed her as she slept
** was horrified with himself. naturally
** realizes the next day that he's an idiot who didn't think the plan through. the mistress is a noble, apparently, and now he's wanted by the law. oops
* runs away in fear. chara, somehow unable to move on, kind of just followed him around as a little silly ghost
** seek can't see them. all he can hear is a faint, ghostly whisper. in his guilt, he has this idea that he's being haunted by vengeful spirit of the mistress for his crimes
** thinks he's going crazy, but that's okay. happens to the best of us
* stumbles upon these gangsters. they get him into more trouble with the law, but somehow they're really good at escaping and they're free again
** they kind of adopt seek into their gang
** now he runs away from the law as a living
