In preparation for dragon AU, I'm bringing out my Sunday best. Give a warm welcome to Dante from Devil May Cry, the stylish bombastic demon hunter who is king of the dorks. Here, he's gonna be a Skywing/Icewing hybrid with the name Raptor.
His mother, the skywing Temperance, and his father, the icewing Permafrost, happened upon each other one day, likely through battle, and fell in love. Because it just Seems To Be The Case With Icewings, Permafrost was a royal with animus blood, so their children would naturally inherit that power or at least have the ability to pass it down. Raptor takes more of a Skywing appearance with Icewing features. Unfortunately, Icewings had enough of this with prince Arctic and Skywings actively kill anyone with any unnatural abilities. Both dragons were punished (presumably killed) and Raptor had to fend for himself for most of his life.
But hey, even if both of his tribes hate him and at least one makes efforts to kill him, he became a very lax dragon who likes having fun and doesn't have a care in the world. He traveled through Pyrrhia on his own for a while. Eventually, set up shop in the town of Possibility after the Sandwing/Skywing truce during the war as someone who took on all sorts of odd jobs, from tracking down Scavenger villages to roughing up a few individuals when needed. No one's been able to confirm if he possesses animus magic, but it doesn't stop some from viewing him as a threat or even a pariah. With the school opening up and interracial tolerance growing, Raptor's packing his bags and moving in to teach.
Naturally, he wont' be an animus for the purposes of this game, but Raptor will be making regular use of the Rule of Cool; that might confuse a few dragons and that's the point~
I haven't totally decided what he'll teach as a professor, but he will be a professor. He might teach survivalism or geography or cultural studies or something like that. He's the cool uncle that'll let you in on a few cool things if you want him to. Normally Raptor would have a twin to bounce off of, but I'm leaving any sibling stuff open to interpretation and the occasional AU shenanigans. Maybe you've met Raptor before, maybe you wanna punch him in the face, who knows! This is Dante we're talking about. Hit me up with any ideas you may have on this!
