I'll bet you're wondering just what a Magi Dragon is?
Well, to put it simply, the race of Magi Dragons is by far the rarest of all the different species of dragon. They have existed since the beginning of time, but lately their numbers have diminished to the point where it is almost impossible for one Magi Dragon to find another of their kind (sigh).
Just as Earth Dragons were born of the earth, Fire Dragons of fire, and Water Dragons of the sea, the Magi Dragons were birthed of pure magical energy. This gives them direct control over the magical strands which hold our universe together, and can manipulate them at will, without the aid of spells or potions. This also gives them distinct characteristics, such as glowing eyes. Males have manes, very much like that of a horse, which runs the entire length of their necks. The males always have at least two horns, sometimes more than that. The females do not generally grow horns, and if they do they are smaller than the male's. They will also rarely have manes.
Magi Dragons can be any color of the rainbow, no two Magi are ever the exact same color. Eye color, too, can vary, though not as much. Perhaps the most distinguishing thing about the Magi, however, are their scale pattern. Most will not have any scales, instead having a tough hide which cannot protect against metallic weapons like scales can. Very few if any Magi will have scales, and in such a case they are very fine and small, and very often these few specimens are hybrids between a Magi and another species of Dragon.
I myself, am a hybrid. Half human, half Magi am I. There was a time when I would have been ashamed to admit that, but of late the few Dragons that are left in this world have become more accepting of half-breeds like me, so I need no longer hide it. I am still uncomfortable with it, however. My body is a dark gray color, with an underbelly of a lighter shade, widening at my midsection. My form is built so that I am neither quad- nor bi-pedal, but somewhere in between. I can stand on my digitigrade hind claws with good balance, but usually walk and run on all fours. My eyes glow a bright golden-yellow, and being male I have a mane of pure white which runs the length of my neck. Two wings sprout from my back, bat-like in their appearance. My claws are black, three on my hind feet and five on my four-finger-and-a-thumb fore-paws.
As for being half-human, my father was a Magi, his name was DoKastra. I was born human originally, but later in life my dragon form awakened, and my body radically changed into what it is now. The mixture of human and Magi Dragon blood within me had very strong effects, in that it boosted my magical abilities far beyond any even my father had seen, but I could not control it. Even now I have trouble with it. But the mixing had another effect... it created an indestructible body, one which could not be killed nor would it age. I was 17 in a.d. 938, the year of my transformation. I have not grown any older in body since that day. Being over a thousand years old has its advantages, but they are outweighed in my opinion my the fact that I will always outlive my friends and lovers. As a result, I have spent much of my past as a recluse.
In recent times I have been attempting to finds ways of passing my eternity of life, living different lives, helping society along where I could and so forth. But very recently an event occurred which changed my life forever. I found the HML, a forum of Dragons and Dinos where I could feel at home and make new friends, so that I didn't have to feel forever alone anymore! I am now a dedicated member of that list, and will remain so as long as it exists!
