Perkeo

﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌ Perkeo is a Tundra that (If he didn't make it obvious by looks alone,) works as a jester, if that wasn't obvious enough with his clothes. He uses a Wooden Marionette for his shows, which is his familiar that he gave the name "Pierrot" to match his own theme. He's a natural-born trickster and prankster, usually getting his way with cunning words and not by honesty, which has lead to a bit of a one-sided dislike from Osore (Yet again, he doesn't like anyone to begin with..)

He worked in a travelling circus as a hatchling, as he was born into it due to his family's lineage as doing performances, whether it be as an actor, circus clown, or anything that involves moving around and high amounts of energy. Perkeo aspired to hit it big in the business. Even if he isn't close, he's still dreaming big.

His main trick is being a ventriloquist. Instead of juggling or fire eating (which would be a lot less impressive in dragon standards since it's a natural ability for a large amount), Perkeo focuses on controlling and mimicking with puppets. Some of these are rumored to be alive, which Perkeo has not confirmed nor denied. Entering his den, he has many different types of puppets and marionettes strewn around in a sitting position on desks, shelves, and tables.

Due to being an outgoing and energetic dragon, Perkeo made a friendship with Slingshot, a Spiral with just as much energy as him. The two of them are often causing mischief and spreading jokes, much to the dismay of the more serious dragons that they share a domain with. Often described as "Grown dragons who have the mentality of a hatchling," Neither Perkeo nor his pal ever seem to get tired of their ways.

This jester isn't the best fighter. Of course he wasn't made out for it, and avoids having to go inside the Coliseum if he doesn't have to. He's made a fool of himself one too many times there, and he generally hates being made a joke of if he isn't on the job. Perkeo scored himself a large scar over his snout, which he hides with his hat, although it's still visible sometimes if he's moving around a lot.

The dragon who caused him this injury isn't known to most. At first it was considered to be Osore due to how tough he was, but that idea had been disproven after a few moons. The damage to his snout left Perkeo unable to properly smell. His lack of smell leaves him unable to identify other dragons and food by scent, and he has to resort to how it looks, (and if it's an edible object, how it tastes.)

After being so heavily damaged, the jester vowed not to return to fighting. He got the injury while he was a fresh adult, and took it as a sign that being a warrior or a knight was far from his style if he could get hurt that easily and that quick. He has an admiration for dragons who are brave enough to put themselves on the frontlines, but he would never consider doing it himself, not anymore at least.

Even with their differences, Perkeo has an even closer relationship to another dragon, who technically counts as two? Which would be Bark and Beetle. He often finds himself talking to both, so he just sums down their name as "Barkbeetle", and goes to them due to one of the heads having a cunning nature. Even if the other head was less fond on making repetitive puns, all three seem to enjoy themselves whenever they hang out.
