Xeric

Xeric, a truly unorthodox Undertide, emerged from the arid deserts of Sornieth, his form a striking echo of the rugged cacti that dot the sun-scorched landscape. Despite his affinity for the parched earth, Xeric harbors a distinct aversion to water, a fear that runs as deep as his roots. His cactus-like visage grants him a masterful proficiency in the art of ambush hunting amidst the dunes, as he lies in wait, poised to strike at any creature seeking refuge or sustenance among the spiky sentinels of the desert.

While his arid homeland may have forged him into a formidable hunter, it has also left him with a certain skepticism towards dragons from more temperate climes. To Xeric, those who haven't weathered the trials of the desert are often seen as soft, unaccustomed to the relentless demands of such a harsh environment. This perception, however, doesn't necessarily lead to disdain, but rather a subtle wariness; a reminder that even the most seemingly hospitable of places can reveal hidden challenges.

Xeric brings to the clan the wisdom of the desert, offering insights and strategies honed by years of survival in an unforgiving landscape. In return, Nimbi offers Xeric a well-earned sanctuary, a place where his skills as a hunter of the dunes can continue to flourish. Though he is wary of becoming "soft," as he assumes many other dragons to be, his decision to stay with the clan is always wavering, a delicate balance between the allure of comfort and the call of his primal instincts.
