Jin

Jin stands for 'justice' /To show compassion to both the living and the dead /To care enough to give one's own life in service

Jin is a trained Assassin. He is quick, cold, and very cunning. He has a habit of collecting trophies- skulls, claws, or weapons from defeated enemies. He has no mate, as an assassin leaves no room in his heart for love.

Jin is very quick and cunning, and also very cold, cutting off the outside world. He travels around in secret, taking care of old grudges or fights for other dragons who do not have the courage or skill to do so themselves.

He had been born into this Clan of criminals and Jin had always been different as a hatchling, more distant, but always thinking up plans and being quicker than the other hatchlings. He hadn't known that this was what he wanted to do, it just happened.

One day an older dragon saw his skill when Jin was training by himself in the forest. The older dragon asked him for a favor, to help him settle an old score, as he could no longer do so himself.

Jin accepted for a few coins to contribute to the Clan, and set out. He taught the dragon a lesson and gave him the older dragons message. He headed back and found the old dragon where he had left him.

"Very good." He said, placing a couple of coins in Jins outstretched paw. Jin had just nodded and headed back to his Clan, when one day another dragon sought him out and then another.

These dragons had heard about Jin from other dragons who had asked the red dragon for his services. Jin had no worries about getting caught by his Clan, as they were always on the run, criminals, wanted for one thing or another. Jin apparently fit right in with them.

He started to take trophies of his successes, a tooth here, a claw there, even the occasional skull or weapon.

What Jin does may seem cold and maybe even evil to others, but he had been born into a Clan of criminals, always on the run, and this was almost normal to him.
