Dupen

## Base Stats

### Adult

It is a Strength Dragon that boasts the power to lift and throw any enemy, no matter how heavy, with both hands.

It discovered the mysterious ore 'Luma' and gained superpowers. With the super strength given by Luma and the added strength of Dupen, no one can defeat Dupen by strength in Thorn Tree Forest. Dupen, who became the most powerful being in Thorn Tree Forest, rose to the position of leader.

If Luma cannot demonstrate its full strength, Dupen loses its strength. Because Luma is a capricious and sensitive ore, it's owner must periodically give it dragon energy. The more energy the dragon consumes, the more power Luma gives.

Dupen is like fire, so it sometimes grabs Luma and fights with it. It is said that Luma, whose mind moves at a whim, suddenly falls asleep, and Dupen, who loses its strength like that, also loses its confidence.

## Story

### Gems and Dragons

Dupen, a dragon that no one can defeat in the Thorn Tree Forest, has obtained 'Luma', a mysterious ore that has only been passed down in legend.

It searched around for years to find the mysterious ore, and put all its effort into making it its own.

Although it held the ore in its hand, Luma did not give it any strength.

"What kind of mysterious ore is this?!"

Although Dupen was angry, it settled down in a corner of the Thorn Tree Forest and studied the ore in front of it for a while. As a result of not giving up and not letting go of Luma in my arms, and talking to the ore, it finally got a response.

When Luma lit up red and spoke to Dupen for the first time, Dupen was deeply moved, but...

"Are you going to sleep? Hmph!"

It didn't take long for the red light to go out, and Luma fell asleep again.

But Luma spoke again, Light again.

"Hey, if you're going to ask for strength, shouldn't you give me food first? That's too much, really!"

So Dupen went back to the Thorn Tree Forest and started looking for something to eat in the Thorn Tree Forest. Then it met a dragon, and Luma light up in front of it.

"That's it, that's it! Dragon! Use your power to knock it out quickly and eat up its energy!"

While the dragon was looking away at those words, Dupen punched it in the back of the head and knocked it out.

"Perfect! Now hold me closer."

When Luma was placed next to the unconscious dragon, Luma vibrated on the floor, began to consume the dragon's energy.

"Hmm, it's delicious! But it's still not enough for me to give you super strength!"

From then on, in order to gain superpower, Dupen did not let go of Luma and began looking for an opponent who could give it more energy.

The more time it spent with Luma, the stronger Dupen's power became, and the beings of the Thorn Forest considered it unbeatable and established itself as the leader.

## Evolution

### Egg

It is an egg with a mysterious ore attached to it.

There are mysterious ores on both sides on the surface of the egg. Although the ore is attached, Dupen has not hatched, so it cannot use its full power.

It hatches by hitting the surface of the egg with its fist. Because the force of its fist is very strong, the surface of the broken egg may splatter here and there.

### Hatch

It has always carried Luma with me since it was a hatch.

Luma, a mysterious ore, is with it. The Dupen hatch wants to be strong and does not let go of Luma. In order to gain superpowers, it needs to wake up Luma, but it is frustrated because it can't figure out how to wake it up. It tried throwing it on the floor, picking it up in its mouth, trying all sorts of things, but it didn't seem to have any effect. After getting angry at Luma for not responding for a while, it sits helplessly on the floor out of exhaustion. However, Dupen does not give up and does not let go of Luma.

### Hatchling

Unlike hatches, hatchlings tries to join forces with Luma.

After many attempts, the mysterious ore Luma opened awoken its power. Dupen's body, which has received Luma's power, glows red. Luma is always talking, but only Dupen can hear Luma's voice. Luma wakes up, but Dupen doesn't know how to properly handle Luma, so Luma ends up acting capricious.

Phenomenon such as supernatural power is displayed, but ends in a few seconds, or people suddenly falling asleep, occur. The reason Dupen often sits on the floor is because it is talking internally with Luma and finding a consensus.

### Adult

It receives power from the mysterious ore Luma and the horn on its head, showing explosive power.

After a long time, it was able to control the capricious Luma. When Dupen awakens Luma when it wants, its power is amplified by using the mysterious energy emitted by Luma. Thanks to this, it can deliver a powerful blow, and it can easily lift and throw your opponent no matter how heavy they are. The energy of the dragons that faints due to Dupen's power is absorbed by Luma. Because Luma lives on the dragon's energy, Dupen periodically feeds the dragon's energy to Luma. When Luma has gained enough energy, it is happy and even grants magical properties to Dupen. Dupen receiving this property, absorbs the power used by the opponent and makes it its own, then piles it up and delivers a huge attack.
