Maddie

APPEARANCE

A young girl with short light brown hair, usually braided, with crystal blue eyes that light up slightly when excited or interested. Her blood is a dark blue instead of red. She wears little to no armor, now that she lost the skull helmet she used to wear in the fight with Runara. The clothes she wears are heavily stylized, with dragon symbols and designs all over them. He carries her two dragon blades on her sides in a leather sheath. The blades now each have a single feather from Lumi attached to the grip.

BACKSTORY

She was born the daughter of the last queen of the dragonbloods, Queen Ingrid. Her sister was born a few years after. It was a lull in the war when she was younger, and she had a chance to bond with a recently hatched lighting dragon, Thraz. Her sister however, was more interested in the unique biology of crystal dragons and bonded with a hatching named Amethyst.

They both bonded over their shared interest in dragon care and science, but they were only able to pursue this for a little while. Once they were around 7, they were forced to help out in the losing war.

Ingrid herself didn’t wish this upon her daughters, but she had no choice. She couldn’t hide them from the reality of the fighting any longer. The two spent most of their time making armor, doing rounds of feeding the aggressive and scarred dragons, and healing those people and dragons that managed to make it back alive. They began to hate and want the war to end more and more with each passing day.

Once they were old enough to fight, it got so much worse. Both of them watched their people die almost daily, or get kidnapped and tortured for the King’s amusement. But they both reacted differently. This only fueled Kori’s hatred for the war, wanting it to end. But Furia, she had a change of heart. She wanted to make Krisfire pay for what they did to them. This led to many fights, destroying the once close relationship.

It got so bad, that after a prolonged fight with Maddie one day, she in a fit of rage after her boyfriend had been killed in a fight earlier in the day, she rushed off with Amethyst to avenge him, despite Maddie trying to stop her. Maddie followed her on Thraz, but only ended up watching her get shot down and die.

When she solemnly returned home, tears in her eyes, she had to report to her mother what had happened. There were very few of them left, and the news was the last straw for her. She did the same as her daughter did, flying out on her wood dragon, Lauma. Maddie didn’t bother trying to follow her, she knew what would happen. As she predicted, Lauma returned, injured, and alone.

It was chaos after that. The remaining dragonbloods looked to her for leadership, but she wasn’t a great leader. She was only 19 at the time. She advised that they hide, to stay protected for a long as possible, because at the time, Khrisfire was still unsure exactly where the valley and mountains of Draevlary were. But they sent a patrol out to kill the remaining members, and report back the exact location of Draevlary.

During the invasion, everyone was killed. They put up a fight, but all the dragonbloods were killed, other than Maddie and Thraz. Thraz did his best to kill all the soldiers, avoiding spear after spear, but eventually got weak and retreated with Maddie into a cave, cornering themselves.

Only a few soldiers remained, Thraz was able to protect Kori from them by killing them, but in the process he was stabbed several times in the heart and neck, and bled out in Maddie’s arms. Blinded by grief and rage she created blades from his teeth, and a helmet out of the bone from his skull. She then went to hide the last remaining lighting dragon egg, his offspring, deep in the very same cave Thraz died in. She swore to herself that she would protect this land in the honor of her fallen people. Not long after, she found an ice dragon nest while cleaning up the bodies of dragons and people. The mother was lying dead over the nest, a single egg still intact. This egg became Lumi.

Lumi was still a juvenile at the time, but was still able to carry Kori with ease with her sheer size. Kori used her to get around and care for the rest of the dragons, and protect the area from any and all intruders. Thankfully, because everyone in the attack had died, Khrisfire still had no idea where they were. LordUrvogel was sent to make sure everyone was killed.

He was able to track down where they had gone with the help of Azar. When he had reached the peak, He was immediately caught by Kori. While he pleaded he didn’t want a fight, she didn’t listen and lunged at him full force, until he finally got through to her. She apologized, taking off her helmet, expressing her gratitude. However, she told him to inform all of Khrisfire that all dragonbloods were dead, and the land was so destroyed that there was no point in trying to settle. She wanted to be alone. He agreed.

However, he would still sometimes visit to ensure she was safe, sometimes bringing food or a gift. One day he brought Xenomorph.

COMBAT

    Maddie can use basically any dragon against you. But alone, she’s also a dangerous opponent.

She is very quick on her feet, and can dash around and avoid attacks with ease. With a slight knowledge of lighting magic, a field of magic not yet explored, she can use the blades to absorb and use electricity to shock and slice opponents. Though, if used for too long, she may end up hurting herself with shocks.

She can’t take many hits, however. But due to her dragonblood, she is protected from harsh climates, like a burning volcano or a frigid mountain. This also means in order to really damage her with fire or ice attacks, they’ll need to be a bit stronger
