━━ story ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
|
The smell of Earth and fermented drinks seeped from the tavern’s open doors. Windows above served larger breeds outside, but the doorways were wide enough to serve dragons of Snapper-size and smaller. Horatio stomped in. Dragons of all shapes and colors milled. Fae dragons crawled in the rafters, fins dancing to animate their conversations with emotion. Several Mirrors were near falling asleep as their Snapper shipmate droned on. “Captain Horatio…” a voice called out, coming closer. “I must’ve missed the smoke signals announcing your ship crashed on the shoals nearby.” Horatio turned, narrowing his eye on the Wildclaw that almost doubled Horatio’s length, but would have had to round up ten more Wildclaws to match his size. “I thought I smelled something funny in here.” Horatio sniffed once. “Something that thinks it’s funny, anyway. How are you, Dameron?” He chuckled. “Business is going well. So well, in fact, I’d like to buy you a drink.” “And me owe you one?” Horatio moved to the bar where his ever-present parrot put a few coins to pay for a drink. “No.” Dameron eyed the bird. “I see your bird’s trained better than your crew.” “Your crew,” Horatio threw back, “is half-made of Snappers, so of course they’re good.” Dameron smiled, shrugged, and slid his own coins onto the bar. “True. But it doesn’t mean he doesn’t talk too much.” |

━━ history ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
|
At a young age, Horatio joined the crew of a ship set to sail the nameless seas surrounding the continent of Sornieth. He was a good sailing dragon, using his Wind magic to push the sails against strong gales. He learned quickly that the rules on land were often not applicable or different from the rules at sea. Far from land, it was dangerous and difficult for dragons to fly, and loose coalitions were formed. Even still, he looks with longing eyes toward his home in Wind territory, always looking forward to when the ship makes port. More often than not, Horatio’s ship turns merchant vessel. Though the crew is restless, waiting at port longing to take part in the skirmishes for dominance over Sornieth, Horatio reminds them they’re welcome to be exalted to take on the fight full-time. They usually fall in line. Horatio sells the goods the Tempest Chase procures from their monster-hunting near and far, pulling into every port his mighty ship can reach. Horatio believes doing your job, whatever it is, can be heroic if that’s what you make it to be. Though he follows the laws of the sea, he follows his own code just as strictly with an intense sense of nobility in his veins. On one of Horatio’s port visits in Wind territory, he decided to go visit a childhood friend from his old clan. She was now part of a monster hunting band, an elemental expert, and she agreed to meet only as soon as she got his letter. Their friendship was renewed, but something else was kindled, as well. Though Horatio doesn't have too many friends at port, he always looks forward to going home to see Kupari, even though it wasn’t back to the clan he always thought it would be. Everything about Horatio is very much like a Wind dragon. He enjoys exploring and learning and looking at maps. His deep understanding and command of Wind magic has made him a valuable sailor on the ship, Shattershell. For all his exploring, Horatio still has yet to set his foot on two territories in Sornieth: Earth and Ice. He hopes one day to see the ancestral home of Snappers and offer a gift at a shrine to the Earthshaker, even though he considers the Windsinger his true leader. Nevertheless, it’s nice to know the land will always be there. |

Indy is a bird with practically no sense of humor—quite the opposite from Horatio. Once caught in the fishing nets from Horatio’s old sea-sailing ship when he was a lowly midshipdragon, Indy has unfortunately been unable to fly ever since. Any bird may be grumpy under those circumstances. Horatio adopted the bird, nursed him back to help and keeps him fed, even though Indy is rarely appreciative. |
