PERSONALITY:
When he was a younger dragon, and before the death of his wife, Backahast was an energetic and playful individual with a prankster's edge that was more shadow than arcane. Nobody who met Backahast now would believe the stories at first blush. After years of fighting and mourning, Backahast has kept a much tighter rein on his heart. He comes off as cold and distant, even to his son.

He's as loyal as they come, to Nepthys primarily and Satet consequentially, and is perhaps the last dragon in the clan to still behave like the lair is a castle instead of a market. To the very, very few people who Backahast is completely comfortable with, he still smiles and jokes with. Anyone else would tell you you're crazy for even suggesting this old ragged-scale has a slip of humor anywhere in him.

HISTORY:
Backahast has been in the clan the longest second only to Nepthys. The two are good friends and fast mates in battle. He used to be pretty cheerful and borderline annoying with his pranks, but after the deaths of his whole family he's been subdued and broken. He exists to defend the clan, and that is it. He follows the king and queen unquestioningly, with the exception of Nepthys. If she, and she alone, asked him to disobey the royals, he would. This is because she is the clan founder, which to him is more important.

A long time ago, there was a girl who was not only pretty but also big and strong. She worked as a maid on a farm by Lake Hjartasjon in southern Nerike. She was ploughing with the farm's horse on one of the fields by the lake. It was springtime and beautiful weather. The birds chirped and the wagtails flitted in the tracks of the girl and the horse in order to pick worms. All of a sudden, a horse appeared out of the lake. It was big and beautiful, bright in colour and with large spots on the sides. The horse had a beautiful mane which fluttered in the wind and a tail that trailed on the ground. The horse pranced for the girl to show her how beautiful he was. The girl, however, knew that it was the brook horse and ignored it. Then the brook horse came closer and closer and finally he was so close that he could bite the farm horse in the mane. The girl hit the brook horse with the bridle and cried: 'Disappear you scoundrel, or you'll have to plough so you'll never forget it.' As soon as she had said this, the brook horse had changed places with the farm horse, and the brook horse started ploughing the field with such speed that soil and stones whirled in its wake, and the girl hung like a mitten from the plough. Faster than the [male chicken] crows seven times, the ploughing was finished and the brook horse headed for the lake, dragging both the plough and the girl. But the girl had a piece of steel in her pocket, and she made the sign of the cross. Immediately she fell down on the ground, and she saw the brook horse disappear into the lake with the plough. She heard a frustrated neighing when the brook horse understood that his trick had failed. Until this day, a deep track can be seen in the field.
