Acidback the Green

Acidback the Green is an Ancient Green Dragon, the head of all Green Dragons, in the Dragon's Ward.

## Background

Acidback the Green is one of the most financially successful dragons in the city, and that is saying quite a bit given his competition. He is the CEO and founder of Emerald Investments, a bank that prides itself on security, it's last line being the CEO itself's prodigious might. Like any Ancient Dragon, he is a leader in the community, but chiefly in charge of the Green Dragon population in the city, a task he metes out with swift justice and furious claw.

Acidback has a bit of a lightly smarmy look to him, always dressed in an immaculate suit with his hair slicked back, with bright green eyes. His un-glamoured form is of course, a massive dragon with scales of deepest green, though he only rarely uses it due to the commotion caused by his size. He currently has a group of six princesses who live with him up in the penthouse of Emerald Investments, all of whom greatly enjoy the luxury amenities.

The Prince Division met Acidback while working on Case 5716, but only briefly, until right after the chase that led to the apprehension of the perpetrator. He then offered Taryn safety among Emerald Investments, as well as shocking everyone involved by offering Caustimire a job as Taryn's personal bodyguard, which she quickly accepted.

## Personality

While obviously an astute businessman, Acidback is actually quite cordial with mortal-kind, as he has dealings with all sorts of them throughout his day, and is exceptionally kind, cordial, and surprisingly deferrential to the princesses in his care, however he is also quite aware to not get attached to any of them, as he will inevitably outlive all of them. In fact, this facing of the reality of his near-limitless age, he has adopted a policy of taking mortal kind at face value, allowing them to surprise him at their leisure.

This amiability on the other hand, does not extend to other Green Dragons, as he is known to be absolutely ruthless in policing their behavior, with a personal penalty of death being carried out if necessary.

## Relationships

### His Princesses

Acidback prefers the company of Princesses, but is otherwise entirely deferential to them, very eager to meet their needs and their desires. He requires them on a schedule to eventually sleep on his horde (with him in it) every once in awhile, but otherwise all six are well-cared for and enjoy his company, though they also enjoy teasing him.

### Caustimire

While Acidback has definitely seen potential in Caustimire, the reality of their relationship is that it is intensely rocky. Caustimire does not have nor cares to have the same perspectives as Acidback, and her naturally abrasive personality does not help in that matter. She has often been kicked out of Emerald Investments, though one time she just stormed out in the most pointlessly dramatic fashion possible by breaking a window. It is clear that Taryn has largely been the connecting point for the two of them, because on their own it is especially unlikely they would ever get along.

## Trivia

* Acidback is completely asexual.
* Playing the in-universe equivalent of "Mario Kart" is strictly banned among the princesses and himself in his horde due to the frustration it caused him.
