Personality:
Strong-spirited and extroverted, Pythias's passion-filled personality can be overwhelming to some. He has a strong value of self-worth and takes pride in the work that he does. While he tends to be a more independent dragon, he deeply appreciates Sonata and Rianon for taking him in when he was cast out by his original clan in the Plague territory.

Using his talent of channeling lightning he helps to invent and power many of the devices that help the clan function, including an electrical egg incubator for lightning eggs that seem to be struggling. Because of this, he's well known among the clan's medics and dragon mothers as a reliable source of support.

Occasionally when he sits on the cliffside and watches the sun set, he reminisces over what might have been had he stayed in the Plague flight's territory. Despite the branching paths his life may have taken, sitting with his mate Sekhmet by his side, he has zero regrets about his past choices.

Lore:
It's so hot...

A fledgling Sandsurge limps aimlessly through the boiling hot wasteland, searching helplessly for a sanctuary. With every step, uncontrolled electricity sizzles at his feet. Images of snarling fangs and red eyes staring at him with fear and hatred flash through his mind; he winces and shakes his head, trying to clear away the intrusive memories. If only I could control myself, maybe they would have kept me...

Large footsteps nearby have him scrambling away and cowering under the nearest scraggly bush. There's a pause, before the footsteps begin to come closer. Pythias trembles, knowing that the wild arcs of electricity coming from his body are a dead giveaway to his location.

"Hello there. Are you lost?" A rough yet kind voice rings out. Pythias cracks one eye open to reveal a female Guardian several times his size. A careful claw reaches out and touches his forehead. "Oh, you're burning up... Here, let me help."

A trickle of cool water is poured from a waterskin and dabbed onto his face. Sweet relief... The waterskin is then passed over so he can take several gulps from it. "Ah— sorry!" He apologizes fearfully when a spark of electricity manages to hit the other dragon. But to his surprise, she simply examines him curiously and smiles.

"Ah, you have a unique talent there. Are you alone? Would you like to come back with me to the Lightning territory?"

Pythias has nothing to lose. "Okay."

~

Slowly, Pythias opens his eyes. He's laying in his nest, with the sunlight filtering in through the entrance of the den. Across from him, his mate Sekhmet is scratching something into a notebook and humming under her breath.

"You were making some strange noises," she comments lightly, not looking up from her work. "Had a bad dream?"

He holds up a claw and lets a small current run through him and up into the air, relishing the evidence of his growth and the progress on his control over his abilities. "It wasn't all bad," he sighs. "Just some old memories, is all."
