Biography
Atticus
He got what he thought he wanted, a removal from the weak complacency of Aurums lair, and when he saw how hard Dresden worked those in his lair, and how strong the hunters were he felt he was finally in a place he deserved.
It was a rude awakening when he realized that petty squabbles and complaining did not, in fact, provide any experience for the labours that all dragons in Jötunheimr must complete to remain. Not skilled in gathering, tracking, bug collecting, scavenging, money management, digging or any other skills needed to be accepted within Jötunheimr, he was quickly placed in low regard socially.
In fact, even Dresden himself said to those within his council that even though he was tasked to take care of Atticus as a favour to Aurum, Atticus might be more fitting to be a servant of the Icewarden. Upon hearing this private conversation, Atticus burst in and declared that it was everyone else's fault for not using his skills properly, and that he was wasted as anything other than a a coliseum battler.
This was not to be the case, as he was knocked out by a Maren Wavesinger almost as he entered the Kelp Beds, and if not for Ondal he would have been carried off for whatever they do with enemy dragons.
Atticus faced harsh realities that day. He resigned himself to help wherever he can, and although he still puts up his haughty front, he now works as hard as any other dragon in Jötunheimr, and wishes in the future to become a great battler too, worthy of all the praise that comes mostly from his own mouth.
Quote:
Two dragons approached their leader's lair. "Aurum?" The female called into the dark. Her voice was small and soft. "Come in," said Aurum from within her lair. The two dragons entered the lair which was suddenly illuminated by a small fire in the center. The leader's face lit up in a sort of surprised look. "Bubblegum? Rubinus? What do you need?" The two dragons, Bubblegum and Rubinus, looked at each other. Rubinus, the male, was first to speak. "It's Atticus. He's been having a bit of problems." Aurum turned her head in slight confusion. "What's wro-" before the leader could finish Bubblegum interrupted her. "He's out of control!" She cried. "He's bitten his brothers! They were bleeding! I told him it's not nice to bite others, but he just bit me!" The distressed pink dragon pointed to her tail. It was wrapped in bandages with tiny specks of blood stained into the fabric. "He... he!" Bubblegum was sobbing now, Rubinus laying his wing on her, trying to comfort. "He said he hated me. He told me he wouldn't care if he ever saw me or Rubinus again!" The lair was filled with Bubblegum's sobs. Aurum looked to Rubinus. "Maybe we can take him on a little tour of what we do, Rubinus. Maybe he just needs to see the battlefield and understand it could be something he could do too." Rubinus shook his head. "No, I already tried that. He told me he doesn't like our way of fighting. Our way of handling violence.." The three dragons were puzzled. What should they do?
Suddenly a fourth dragon came running in. "Aurum? Are you okay? I heard crying." "No, Aztec, I'm fine. Bubblegum was the one who was crying." Aztec looked over at a teary-eyed Bubblegum. "Oh." He said simply, embarrassed for bursting in an obviously private moment. "We were telling Aurum about Atticus. About his biting." Rubinus told him. Aztec nodded. "I heard about that. That sounds like something that would happen in Jotunheimr, not in Sun Bear." A light bulb went off in Aurum's head. "Jotunheimr.... maybe we should ask Dresden if he's accepting new members." Rubinus and Bubblegum looked at Aurum and Aztec in great confusion. "Who's Jotunheimr and what's a Dresden?" They asked. Aztec smiled at their ignorance. "Jotunheimr is the clan we came from. Dresden is their leader. They have a.... rougher way of dealing with things. I could take Atticus there, see if Dresden sees protential in him." Bubblegum nodded.
"Yes! Please! We don't want to hand him to Lightweaver. Please, take him to Dresden. Hopefully he'll be happy there."

Atticus believes himself to be a noble and strong dragon, worthy of any and all he desired. This, of course, was a complete farce, but his belief was stronger than his eyes it would seem. From a young age he would be found biting and scratching his fellow hatchlings if they had something he wanted, did something he didn't want or if he was in a biting and scratching mood. He felt himself too good for his birth lair, disgusted at the peace and harmony that they lived in. In his mind, he was a strong dragon who deserved to be with his equals (though anyone rivaling his own power and magnificence was unlikely to him, so someone who at least was tough would have to do.) He was glad when his parents requested to their clan leader that he be removed, and he didn't cry at all because someone as lordly and amazing as he was would simply never do such a thing, it was just that some of his scales landed in his eye. |
