Ioan

Role: Hunter and Patrol Guard

Ioan was a rogue, disregarding Clan life and living by his own rules. He frequently stole from other Clans during the night, or challenged weak dragons to fights, taking their possessions once he won. He hoarded treasure and materials in a hidden den just outside the Lightning Flight's territory, and his spoils reached nearly the top of his high-ceiling den.

One night, Ioan decided to raid a nearby Clan- the one led by Fluffy. Ioan had assumed that Fluffy was a pushover, and that stealing from him would be a piece of cake. Little did Ioan know that his Clan was over 30 dragons strong, and was regularly patrolled by the nocturnal dragons at night. He sneaked in at around midnight during a thunder storm, when the thick black clouds covered the light of the moon. His bright scales helped conceal him during a flash of lightning, and he easily darted around the few dragons that were on duty.

He headed straight for the Clan's collection of items- food, treasure, materials- you name it, they had plenty. He flicked his tail in delight, beginning to sift through the collection and taking only the most valuable of items. That was, until, he reached the Clan's pile of treasure. It wasn't the gleaming of gold coins or gemstones that caught his eye- rather, a beautiful Imperial dragon resting atop the mound. Ioan had never felt an attraction like this before- any female dragons he had were temporary, and there were no feelings of closeness or love.

His heart raced, and in his inability to move, he was spotted by a patrolling dragon. He was taken directly to Rouge, who saw much of her younger self in the dragon. She decided, as punishment, Ioan would join the Clan and be kept under the watchful eye of other Clan members. Ioan protested at first, until the dragon that distracted him earlier stepped up, volunteering to look after Ioan.

Love came quickly after this. Though Ioan was initially hesitant to open up, the Imperial dragoness, known as Sakura, quickly broke down the tough walls he'd built up around him. She showed him the benefits of Clan life, the bond between the members, and the comfort they provided. Ioan was completely smitten with Sakura, and during a patrol, Ioan confessed to her.

They are now inseparable mates, raising eggs and dragonets of their own. Ioan has changed completely- he is now compassionate and able to show affection.

Rouge is quite pleased with herself.
