I most often base my lore around a dragon's apparel and outfit, their origin, their unique colors etc. If you give me a dragon with zero apparel and basic colors and no ideas for what direction you want me to take them in, I got nothing for you.

A wild, casually flirty, and laid-back sort of dragon—a bit too laid back, considering how death springs up all around her. When dawn comes, she takes off to the west, as if fleeing from the sunrise, and at almost every rager Vie has been encountered at, disaster follows soon after she leaves. Unexpected building collapses, catastrophic equipment failures, flooding, tornadoes, earthquakes, fires— and so on and so forth. Does this dead girl walking know that she's a walking curse?

Ever since she was a hatchling, she was always eager to explore, the first to leave the nest, nearly sending herself careening out of the trees before her exhausted parents could make an attempt to stop her. Must've inherited it from her mother. [color=transparent]____[/color]When she was grown, she took off on her Search and never once touched the ground again, eager to take in every thing Sornieth had to offer. Since then, she's met countless dragons, toured many settlements, taken in a thousand beautiful vistas, visited innumerable clans- and yet, she's hasn't found anything worthy of protecting.

[color=transparent]____[/color]Contrary to popular belief, the heavens shaking is not a particularly noticeable event. It occurred in the dead of night, just an hour before dawn. Like a breeze passing through windchimes, every constellation shuddered, planets wobbling in their orbits, stretching gravity thin and nearly tearing reality at the seams. [color=transparent]____[/color]But those stars, their accompanying planets, and their galaxies are many, many light-years away. The event went unobserved by dragonfolk and amateur astronomers, and even the studious, diligent magisters of the Oculus of the Eleven failed to notice. The Arcanist, high up in his Observatory, paused in his frantic calculations and scribbled records of observations. He looked to the sky, staring into the heavens for a solemn moment, and saw nothing.

She runs a little cafe tea shop for the exhausted astrologers in the Astrolodome, addressing every one of her most regular patrons by name. Her door is always open, if you ever want to talk. Please, please, come in, sit down! She'll put the kettle on. [color=transparent]____[/color]Her husband isn't allowed in the tea shop, of course, after what happened the last time he'd set foot in there - why does it seem everywhere Hugo goes, things blow up?

[color=transparent]____[/color]Even Geode's quiet, calm, stoic nature is worn to frayed ends in face of the task of trying to map out the mess that is the Knot; one can't even take a proper population count, as dragons come and go all the time! New members of the clan build their homes wherever they please, forming trade and cooperative agreements with other clans willy-nilly, without so much as a note as a record!

Don't touch her! - you'll get a nasty shock. It's not clear if the cables and wires coming off of her are cosmetic or she's truly rewired her body with them. And is that... storm clouds trailing behind her? Perhaps that's why she was thrown out of her clan in the Shifting Expanse. [color=transparent]____[/color]The other members of the villa avoid her, out of fear and necessity. She lives alone because any dragons approaching her will inevitably receive a nasty shock or two - and god forbid you have any metallic elements on you when you're in close proximity.

There’s a link in her bio to the thread if you want some details about that.
