Vengel

Biography Vengel was oldest out of his litter and was immediately an apple of his father’s eye. Skye pretty much forbid Vengel to spend time with his sisters stating how, as the heir of the leadership, he was better than them and should stay above them. He also praised Vengel’s look and Vengel was also very proud of how he looked though he thought of needing a bit more. As soon as Vengel was old enough he started to spend a lot of time at the Hoard trying to find an outfit that would make him look even better and eventually found a combination he liked. Skye didn’t quite understood why Vengel didn’t pick more leader like outfit to which Vengel answered that he didn’t care about being a leader. That shocked Skye who wondered who would inherit his status after him. Vengel suggested one of his younger sisters, especially Tempest who was very cheery in nature but Skye didn’t even want to think about that. That made Vengel a bit confused but he didn’t bother arguing with his father and left. Vengel spent his nights admiring his look and often compared himself to his clan mates. He though soon noticed that others didn’t made much justice to his look by looking like a pack of wild animals with random clothes. He wanted his clan to look the best it could and started to build outfits for his clan mates. They though didn’t seem to like them and ignored them making Vengel a bit angry. He didn’t like how his hard work didn’t get recognition it deserved and pressured others to wear them stating that he was ”the fashion expert” and that they looked ugly otherwise. That seemed to work and Vengel was proud of how wonderful the clan looked thanks to him. Keeping it pretty though was a bit difficult and Vengel had to deal with others changing their clothes or breaking them all the time. Pressuring others was not too hard to Vengel and most of the time he only had to say and others changed their clothes. It was though tiring and time to time Vengel had to rest. Skye who was praising Vengel’s actions all the time did not like that and told Vengel to not show others that he was tired. He told he should make sure everyone knew who he was all the time and rest only when others were asleep. Skye helped his son with that and Vengel enjoyed the attention he got. Nearing the end of the year the clan received a move order from the Observatory and everyone in the clan had to participate in that. Vengel really had no problem with that and helped other faes to pack clan’s property. Vengel though wanted to finish it fast because two faes just couldn’t work together and dragged the project out a lot and Vengel started to get sick of their constant arguing. While he had to stand the fights of his father and his aunt Fea Vengel started to realize how stubbornly stupid his father was. He tried to make others do his job and when they didn’t, like sane dragons would, he tried harder and blamed others when the packing dragged on. Once the move was finally finished Vengel stayed afar from his father correcting others’ outfits trying to get rid of those echoes of his father’s arguments in his ears. Not long after the clan had settled down to their new home they got a visitor in form of a skydancer called Afrodite. Young dragon didn’t try to hide the fact that she saw herself as beautiful and spent her time introducing her feathers to every resident in the clan. The following night she continued her tour which annoyed Vengel greatly and he sat somewhere visible knowing she would come to introduce herself. Once she arrived Vengel didn’t let her tell her name to him before pointing out how self-absorbed she was to care only about her feathers. Afrodite was curious if he was jealous to which Vengel answered that he looked good already and he had no reason to envy her bare look. That angered the skydancer who called Vengel an arrogant bee making Vengel angry. The two started to bash each other when Vengel’s mother Tinker came to stop the two. After that meeting Vengel and Afrodite tried to avoid each other and annoyed how pretty Afrodite thought she was Vengel put extra effort trying to make others in the clan look the best they could. He though soon noticed that most of them did not wear his outfits and though they looked great too he did not want his work to be wasted. While investigating who was making those outfits he noticed they were made by Afrodite and not allowing that he challenged the skydancer admiring herself next to a water-filled crater to a battle with his crest movements. Afrodite saw that and accepted his challenge with similar wing movement and the two started to compete in making the clan look better than the other. The competition did not go well for Vengel with most of his clan mates preferring Afrodite’s outfits over his. Skye having heard something about his son’s competition tried to give him some tips but Vengel thought they were annoying and ignored them. He though was curious of how Afrodite made others wear her outfits so willingly and started to spy her. He noticed that she had become quite liked in the clan and started to investigate the reasons for that. He noticed that despite at first being a bit self-absorbed she had calmed down and listened others’ wishes before suggesting them anything and was overall very nice to them. She had also started to help others with their problems which Vengel had hard time believing. That though got more evidence after Afrodite took a young pearlcather Itameri under her wing to help him to over come his aquaphobia. Vengel still believed she did that only to make others like her and continued their competition only to notice that no one seemed to like him. He tried to figure out why and was shocked when he realized that he had been a bit of a jerk and after that realization he admitted his defeat shaming his behavior and stopped pressuring others with their looks. It didn’t take long for Skye to hear about Vengel’s defeat and he came to give some tips for his son. Vengel having grown to hate his father’s arrogance he had witnessed since the move noticed how his father suggested him to be like he. Vengel did not want that and spit that straight to Skye’s face saying how he was idiotically arrogant and stupid dragon caring only about his own ego and turned his back to the confused fae making sure he didn’t want to interact with him ever again. After the argument Vengel spent some time alone knowing everyone thought he was just like his father. He though didn’t like being disrespected and voluntarily joined clan’s inn project once Skye moved to work with the temple. He knew others were expecting him to point out how they looked ”wrong” and avoided talking about clothes. His coworkers noticed that and every now and then asked him if he was sick or mentally hurt but Vengel sensed clear sarcasm with those questions. Vengel understood they were cost of his past behavior but didn’t want to hear them and spent some time near the Hoard building outfit to get the insults out of his head. On afternoon he was at the Hoard making outfits out of clothes that his younger sister Megan had stored in there. She didn’t like how Vengel moved them from the places she had carefully put them in but didn’t complain much as she had a bit hard time dealing with strong winds. Vengel watched his lighter sister who had natural disability to keep wings close to her body to decrease air resistance struggle. He went through some of the clothes in the hoard and eventually found few that fit Megan and would add some weight to her. He offered them to his sister who was a bit suspicious towards Vengel’s intentions. Vengel explained why she should wear them but also told that he didn’t want to force her if she didn’t want to. Megan decided to accept Vengel’s offer and he helped her to wear them and even added a feature that allowed her to close and open her artificial wings. Few nights later Vengel was once again spending time at the Hoard when Tinker came to meet her son. She praised Vengel’s outfit plans to which Vengel didn’t know how to answer. Tinker seemingly noticed that and asked Vengel to make her an outfit. Vengel was surprised by that and asked why she didn’t ask Afrodite to do that to her to which she answered how she no longer made outfits but instead focused in helping others on mental level. Vengel understood that and promised to make the outfit for his mother when he had some spare time from the inn project. Vengel kept building outfits occasionally giving tips to his clan mates coming to see what they should wear any given time. As time went on his clan mates started to notice he had changed his attitude though they still didn’t fully appreciate him. Vengel noticed that and started to think other ways to help his clan mates with their looks as most of them were able to pick their own clothes. He also wanted some variety as he could only mix clothes that many times. While thinking of ways he noticed clan’s familiar keeper Pinkapi who had paired him with a coral basilisk way back then and while looking at her shaggy fur thought he could barber others furs or at least help them to clean them. He approached clan’s tundras, excluding Pinkapi because her familiars would mess it again in matter of seconds, asking if they wanted him to help with their furs and told them to tell others too to come to him if they needed help with their furs. That seemed to work and his clan mates came to ask help especially with neck and back hairs. That boosted Vengel’s status and kept him somewhat busy so he decided to train his coral basilisk who he had ignored ever since getting it to carry items for him, mainly his barber stuff. After noticing how loyal the creature had been Vengel felt a bit sorry for it and apologized it like he had done to everyone he had offended when he was younger expect his father who Vengel refused to acknowledge. Only dragon Vengel had yet to apologize was Afrodite but she had traveled to the water domain to finish Itameri’s training. Once she finally came back just in time for the Brightshine Jubilee Vengel did not hesitate and came to meet the skydancer. Afrodite greeted Vengel coldly by asking if he had to came to tell how her feathers had alga on them. Vengel pointed out he didn’t need to point that out as she already knew that before apologizing his behavior during their first meeting. Afrodite was confused by that and decided to apologize her own behavior too. After an awkward silence Vengel offered to clean Afrodite’s feathers and the two ended their rivalry officially and continued the jobs they had started doing. Vengel started to gain positive reputation as outfit helper and barber and eventually he also started to treat others' claws as well and even spines if needed. Most of the dragons visiting him very polite but if they were not they made their way to Vengel's blacklist in matter of seconds. Among those were Saana who wanted to look the best and also tried to hit on Vengel which he found beyond annoying and Blacksnake who came to demand Vengel to fix his broken nose and broke his ribs to get him to do that. After having his bones heal in few months Vengel returned to do his job wherever he happened to be that often being the Hoard. That continued on for months until Rosalin planning to revamp the entire lair suggested that he would get his own office in a new temple. The idea intrigued Vengel but he was not sure how to react to her idea of sharing it with Arctica, clan's incompetent seamstress. She was also mildly annoying but because she was granny like with bad memory and not because she was awful to be with. Arctica was more excited about getting to live with Vengel as she put it Vengel himself hating how she said that. It made it sound like they were becoming a couple and Vengel was not into that idea and Arctica herself had been avoiding that kind of relationships since Vengel had hatched. They would only share the same office and work together if needed but most likely that would not happen they having different customers. The clan had just started building the new temple when Vengel's basilisk Ventus, along with most of the other familiars in the lair, started to act hostile Arctica's living blushie saving him from Ventus' claws. The weird otherworldly creatures having arrived not long before did not help with the situation. Things only got worse when news about the usually rather peaceful gaoler spirit having also turned hostile reached the residents. Arctica had hard time staying calm after hearing the news of the spirit being soul of his dead son reborn and Vengel tried to keep her calm. Things had not gotten better when few weeks later clan's leaders vanished with their guardians followed by the lair being walled with earth magic and few mages declaring that they would sacrifice the clan to the Shade. The clan almost panicked due to those news and it didn't help that the mages had offered to grant wishes for everyone who worked with them and revealed the ones that tried to stop them. He saw how Saana used that to turn Skye into a ragepuff the magic affecting familiars starting to affect him too. Vengel was afraid the lunatic would "reveal" him too for having rejected her and stayed hidden the best he could unable to see how his sisters were doing. The day of the summoning arrived and as the Sun was eclipsed a wyvern spirit appeared forcing everyone to bow before asking to submit to Themselves. Vengel was with the group that denied the demand and because of that they were forced to fight no one having control over their body. They were released when another wyvern attacked the first one and Vengel tried to not get crushed by dragons rushing to take down the summoners. He was somewhat close to Megabrain fighting the group with his alchemy junk when one of them was thrown towards him either by accident or intentionally. Vengel had barely time to react before a bigger dragon rushed to shield him and he was able to see Arctica turn into a snowy owlynx. The spell seemed have broken as she remained calm though very confused until Finlande arrived putting a collar on Arctica and telling Vengel to tie her somewhere she could not escape before going to capture Richard having just been turned into a eagle. Vengel was confused but did that anyway. After getting Arctica tied Vengel having understood what Finlande tried to do went to capture dragons having transformed or asked someone else to do that. Once everything started to calm down he was tired and took a rest Ventus returning to him before he fell asleep. He was later woken up by a group trying to get all the injured to the healing offices and Vengel had to explain he had just fallen asleep in an awkward place. The tied up familiar-dragons were gathered to one place where the transformation was reverted. After that Tinker checked who were still missing and the reinforcements were sent to look for them. Vengel himself went to his nest to rest. After that the clan started to recover slowly injured being healed and dragons having turned into animals being found all over the lair and even outside of it. Arctica didn't seem to remember much about being turned into a owlynx and Vengel avoided talking about that. Eventually the temple project carried on and after months of work the salon was finished. Vengel and Arctica moved in they taking over apparels Megan had kept in the Hoard and started to work in their new office Vengel feeling like they were awkward neighbors sharing the same room with invisible wall.

Name origin: Combined from words "venom", because he has toxin as secondary gene, and "engel" meaning "angel" in German, because he has cherub as primary gene which is apparently a type of angel. "Engel" is also Finlandia's long time favorite song by Rammstein.

"No matter what you say first impressions are always created based on the look."

Traits Vengel is brownish arcane fae with bluish markings all across his body and his claws share same color. His crests are monochrome brown and are same shade as his signature tail tip. His frills, which are slightly smaller than average, and wings are mottled purplish with hint of turquoise at the end of the fingers. Vengel’s crests and frills usually move very little his brown crests usually kept slightly turned back most of the time while his frills hang peacefully under his jaw. He has always extremely deadpan and slightly proud look and his eyes have turned darker with age. Though putting a lot of effort in looking good Vengel is surprisingly modestly dressed. He has his signature dark brown, nearly black fedora, gloves, socks and tunic under his fur lined coat all brown colored. Other than that he doesn’t wear anything else and he has no other reason for his clothes than they look good with his colors. They also don't hide his natural colors about which he is proud of. Vengel has deep and charismatic though monotone and often cold and dry voice. He isn’t very cocky but his past arrogance can be sensed in the way he communicates with others. He most likely can speak with less monotone voice but chooses not to. Instead he prefers using faes method of communicating and forces others to read his crests. If he uses common body language he uses simple nods and head shakes and nothing else. He can be a bit hard dragon to communicate with if one doesn’t know common fae language. Vengel is a bit proud dragon never really caring about what others do and has always been like that though he has calmed down over time. He used to be a bit look-centric dragon and wanted his clan to look the best it could but eventually learned how most of his clan mates didn’t want to look pretty but have something practical to wear or something that made them feel like them. He though still has eye for good look and wants to help his clan mates when they have problems with that. His actions are not fully selfish and his will to change his actions and status were driven by will to be more respected than his competitor. Though their competition is over Vengel is still willing to be respected by his clan mates and most certainly wants to be seen more as his father’s reflection. Vengel is rather indifferent when it comes to social interactions. He may spend time alone or in a large group and he won’t mind as long as things don’t get annoying. It is though rather hard to tell when that is happening as Vengel prefers to keep his emotions mostly hidden. When in group Vengel may stand out because of his fashion sense and full brown outfit but personality wise he is barely noticeable. He doesn’t ask for attention and doesn’t speak unless he has actually something to say. Those are usually very short comments that may not have anything to do with the topic. On topic opinions he speaks up only if no one else has yet to brought that up and if Vengel remains silent it usually signs that someone needs to apologize. Other option is that he is not impressed by something he being serious dragon who is very picky with what he finds amusing. Vengel used to admire his father when he was younger but as he grew older he started to notice how the entire clan him included found his bossy and arrogant behavior annoying. He was shocked when he after noticing not being respected by his clan mates realized that he had been similar to him and started his quest to become a better dragon. Though that required him to be nice to others and relied a lot in others’ forgiveness Vengel refuses to be either of those to those he feels have hurt him. Getting to Vengel’s bad side is rather tricky as he tends to be a bit deadpan towards everything but if someone manages to get there they may not get out without serious effort. That is how he got others’ respect and that is how his respect is gained. Vengel is not a familiar person but he is paired with a coral basilisk called Ventus. Ventus joined Vengel soon after the clan moved but Vengel didn’t give the creature any kind of attention nor did he acknowledge it in a very long time. Ventus though loyally followed Vengel and made sure no one tried to attack Vengel from behind. It didn’t happen until Vengel noticed he might need some extra hands to carry his barber items when he finally started to give any kind attention towards Ventus and their relationship started to develop fast. Vengel gave it name, a bluish black fedora and a bag where it could carry his items. Sometimes Ventus even allows Vengel to ride itself if he needs to move fast but that is rather rare. Usually Ventus just follows Vengel and makes a lot of noise when someone manages to anger Vengel and may even peck if needed. That is polar opposite to Vengel who doesn’t like showing his emotions. Though not a mage Vengel is relatively good with magic. He can levitate items, even multiple at once, and change their sizes individually when doing that as well as move them independent from each others. The movements are accurate as they have to as as a fae Vengel can’t hold scissors in hand when barbering larger dragon as that would take ungodly amount of time. Vengel doesn’t have clear limitation for his skill as he can alter their sizes to make the spells less tiring but the bigger and/or more magical the item is the harder it is for Vengel to manipulate. Most of the time Vengel uses his spells on clothes and his barber items to make his work easier. He can also fuse apparels with each other. His magic won’t work on living beings. He is also good with sensing magic.

Apparel Catalog



Most apparels have been modified with two spells: size altering spell and clipping spell. Both spells have been added to the clothes so that they can be worn by any dragon regardless of their size or breed which in turn makes producing apparels cheaper. The pieces of clothing have been infused with the spells which allows any dragon, regardless of their magical skills, to cast them.

Size altering spell affects the size of the apparel and in some cases it also alters their shape. The spell is the more common of the two and it is meant to make sure any breed can wear the apparel regardless of their size or age.

Clipping spell is rarer of the two spells and only appears on apparels that are worn on wings, legs and arms. The origin of the spell lies in an ancient war between plague and nature. It has been forgotten which side invented the spell but general consensus is that the spell originates from nature. During a battle a dragon hurt their wing and a healer tried to treat it but they couldn't wrap the injury due to the membrane. In order to wrap the injury the healer made a spell that allowed them to pass the wrap through the wing without damaging the membrane. After the war was over the spell spread to the fashion industry and is now in common use.
