THEME SONG: Animal Impulses

"We grew up, so very close. A parasite needs a host,"
"Just get away from me! Please just stop touching me! You're always trying to be somebody else. Now I r e a l i z e I'm not alone.. You think they're scared of me!"


"Unlike The Forest Creeper, who leads you back home, I lead you astray until nature takes the better of you. Or maybe I don't. Who's to say? Not many know me and the many who did, undoubtedly, have perished. Maybe they haven't and I'm just playing an awful trick-- mind games to mess with you but really, once again I ask who's to say, truly? It's an enigma, even to myself!"

Serverys is a dragon of cunning, cruel, and heartless as well as sarcastic and cold malevolence. He dwells around in The Tangled Wood, day and night, and leads you astray if you're unfortunate enough to be convinced by his sweet words of his desire to help or be helped. Most times its the latter, where he'll find some poor lost dragon and promise to lead them out of the murkiness and darkness of his homeland of The Shadowbinder's creation; sadly enough, but not for him, he'll just as easy as crushing a fly in his claws will leave you to die. From hunger and thirst, to the wild and treacherous wildlife of the woods or poisonous deadly plant life. He is, by all means, the exact opposite of his older, adoptive sister known as "The Forest Creeper", or as she's named, Fane, who celebrates with townsdragons and beastclans alike in time of celebration and does, in genuine truth, lead lost dragons back home. Serverys grew so spiteful of his older sister, he took on doing the very opposite of her good and friendly deeds and destroys celebratory parties, unlike her who celebrates it from a distance unless invited. You're unlikely to find him in the light of the day outside the forest, or even any other forest at all that isn't The Shadowbinder's realm. Serverys prefers the cold, lowlight of his home and detests sunlight. It won't kill him, it's not like the Skydancer can't withstand it-- He just feels abhorrent under it and despises it all the same. There is a high chance that he'll sometimes travel out The Tangled Wood, under the guise of night and explore the rest of Sornieth looking for more trouble to cause or show some admiration for the world he's been born in and just how beautiful the night and moonlight looks.

These are perhaps the only moments of compassions and sweetness he'd ever shown since growing up, only really caring about his Gloomwillow and Tangle. Otherwise, he's The Big Bad Wolf a dragon would hear in Little Red Riding Hood's stories from the gory incarnations, a monster lurking in the shadows, the devil from the depths of The Tangled Wood as whole, who found a The Grove Shade Clan to call his home, but is not so often there-- having his own little cabin in The Foxfire Bramble, for he cannot afford being found out as being that one dangerous dragon that leads you astray, as much as he wants people to know his name and fear him, because otherwise they'll know who he is and would be unable to do his evil deeds. Because of this, he's unaware of his sister's existence in the Shadow Clan.

However, you see, Serverys wasn't always like this. The Skydancer was abandoned at birth along with Fane, who'd been adopted Skydancers since hatching and being dropped off somewhere in a The Gladekeeper's realm to starve and die, for the two were still too young and clueless of the dangers of the world when you've got no guardian to keep an eye on you to make sure you don't drown trying to drink water or get mauled by a wild beast. As a result of their orphaning at such a young age, Serverys does not remember the face of his so-called-parents, both biological and adoptive. For this fact, the twice-abandoning and the trauma of nearly dying so many times with his sister as they escaped danger or nearly starving to death on multiple occasions, hatred for the any and other dragon began to brew in his heart the older he grew. Fane had avoided this side of her brother's for a long time, only knowing of his more bubbly and more caring side, along how timid Serverys used to be; but eventually he even started to despise her. Not because of the parental situation, not because of their countless survivals, not even because of the two being there for one another since day one.

Severys and Fane became a known duo across every forest of Sornieth, namely The Gladekeeper's realm as per Serverys' sister being a Forest Elemental. The duo were saviors of those lost, starving, and abandoned but Serverys, slowly but surely, noted how dragons were only intimidated by him, scared, even hid behind his sister or ran past him to her side or behind her to hide. It only worsened the ire he already felt for the world as is, despite helping dragons by that point. The situation only led to a bloody, near-death battle, and Serverys would've killed her if she didn't happen to be family, but even then, he attacked his sister and left with one more thing to say, "Stop babying me. I'm not your actual brother, and I care for not a soul. You're lucky you're alive, Fane, do not try to tell me that I am loved or cared for; because they only like one duo of The Siblings of The Forest, and you have expressed concerns that I scare them. Just like them."


"Follow, dear dragons, I'll show you the way home."


"Shine razor eyes, before the walls come down. Wilder than lions, louder than sound. All the birds and the bees are getting older now, there's a cold breeze blowing over my soul; shine razor eyes in delight, shine razor eyes, shine razor eyes before you die. Shine razor eyes in this light, shine razor eyes! There's a cold breeze blowing over my soul!"


"I'm tired of this human duet. No civilizing hides, our animal impulses."


"You think I'm sweet? Aw! How cute. How pathetic."
