Appearance: Occifer is to put it simply, huge. He is definitely one of the biggest dragons around Wonderwhy and it's mainly due to his age. His body is massive and strong, giving him an edge over almost anything. He is clumsy on land, and though able to fly, is not a particularly graceful or swift flier.

His scales are a bright indigo colour, quite abnormal compared to the normal "green" dragons. They are extremely shiny and he takes meticulous care to ensure they retain this glimmer. His lower body is smeared with fingers of lighter blues, swirling up from his belly onto his sides. As they go further down his belly, they seem to turn translucent, reflecting light.

His wings are just as big as he is. Large, scaly wings extend above his body. The main frame of them is just a touch darker than his normal body, with the leather between them of the lighter sort on his belly. His tail is long and and convered in with two pronged spines down it. His neck is "gilded" like armor, the plates overlapping until they reach his head. His muzzle is narrow with a sharp cut off at the end, allowing for an ample jaw of sharp teeth. Two spiralling horns emerge from just above his brows. His feet are also armored, with a long silver claw at the end of each.

His eyes are bright green, but seem to have dulled with age. The left one is somewhat milky, showing that he is slowly going blind on that one side. His voice is deep and booming and he can speak wolf almost fluently.
Other: He breathes fire, but doesn't often do so. Once he catches his food though, he will cook it. He likes it bloody.

Mental
Strengths: Ambitious, candid, decisive, persistent, strong
Weaknesses: Cold-hearted, inconsiderate, combative, rude, lack of trust, blind hatred, explosive, vain, envious
Personality: Occifer is an old dragon, and has seen much of the world. This has given him ample opportunity to decide what his goals in life are. He is extremely ambitious, dedicated to whatever cause he thinks of. This drive to complete his goals makes him a persistent dragon. He will do almost anything in order to achieve success. He plans to spread his progeny throughout the land, a goal that is always on his mind.

He makes decisions easily and is quick on his feet to think of solutions. He rarely gets taken out of his element and he's flexible and quick to adjust to any situation he is put into. He can maintain a clear head and act on what he believes to be the best decision possible. Occifer is also extremely candid. Upon first meeting him he's quite expressive and nice. His appearance is as alluring as his initial personality. He is well spoken and knows how to put things in a way which makes him come out on top.

His mock friendliness is an act though. Occifer is cold hearted. To be quite frank, he has nothing left to live for. Having lived so long there is little left for him besides causing pain and suffering. He lost the ones he loved, why not others? He has a take as he wants mentality, and if he wants something, he'll damn well make sure he gets it. He has no consideration of how his actions will affect those around him so he does as he pleases.

Occifer is very quick to anger and extremely combative. He will go out of his way to ensure a fight. Age has given him the advantage and he is a well adapted fighter to both land and air. His blindness in his one eye is beginning to hinder him and his body is getting more tired with age, but he is still a force to contend with.

Manners are another thing Occifer lacks. He doesn't really care about other's feelings when he says or does something. His charm is saved for initial greetings to persuade, convince or to charm others. Once that is done with his facade is gone and he can be his true self. He had few table manners, and even less social manners. He also doesn't trust anyone, and makes that very evident. He would rather put himself in harm's way than accept help.

Occifer has a blind hatred towards wolves. It was wolves who stole everything he loved and so he goes out of his way to make their lives miserable. He loves nothing more than crunching wolf bones loudly between his sharp teeth. This hatred has made him blind to anything else. Any mention of them also sends Occifer into a blind rage, where he explodes and takes his anger out on everything. There is little anyone can do to calm him, and he must bring himself out of it on his own terms. Occifer is also extremely vain. He adores his appearance and believes himself to be not only special but superior to all other dragons. He hopes to pass these traits on to future progeny.

Last but not least, Occifer is a selfish, envious and possessive dragon. He loves what is his and guards it dearly. He has a massive hoard of "treasure" - shiny stones, wolf skulls, just about anything that catches his eye. He especially likes shiny things.
History: Occifer was born in a clutch of five eggs to a pair of dragons. After he was born his father soon left, but his mother raised them. He loved his mother, and it was clear from the way she spoke about her father that she loved him. So Occifer grew up loving both his parents. Out of his clutch, he was the only one who was not plain green, and because of this his mother doted on him. It was pretty evident but despite his siblings jealousy, he remained close to them. He loved his family dearly.

When the hatchlings were older, his mother moved them to the mountains to live in a larger area. Food was more abundant and the conditions condusive to raising five youngsters. It was not long after the move that his mother ran into a wolf pack. Initially they were alarmed at her presence, but his mother, Jazebellaxinepnia (Jaz) had a kind heart and a fondness for wolves. She let the wolves meet her children, and soon the dragons and the pack had formed a strong bond. They moved into the cave where the dragons lived, and together they grew.

The pack flourished, and Occifer and his siblings grew bigger. Occifer learned to love the wolves, cherishing them as friends. He quickly took to their language, becoming easily fluent. Language was one of his better skills, and he would often interpret for his siblings. It was during the cold, hard winter when things changed.

Curled up away from his mother that night, Occifer awoke to the sound of blood curtling screams. Jolting up, the hatchling raced towards where the noises came from, seeing a huge group of wolves, some from thier pack, and some from another. They had already slaughtered two of his siblings, and a huge group of them were on his mother. The female was hindered by the cave around her, unable to fight without hurting her children, or fly away. Her screams were unbearable. Occifer was frozen in fear, and only snapped back when one of his "friends" barreled towards him, hitting him square in the chest. He squealed, lifting up, staring at the wolf with confused eyes. He merely snarled and lunged at him. A swift snap of Occifer's jaws put his life to an end, and he was barely able to escape the carnage. As he left the cave he heard his mother's last scream, her dying wail, and the cries of his siblings.

The wolves had betrayed them to another pack, only befriending them in order to destroy them. Apparently the dragons were a threat, and during the winter were taking away valuable food supply. Hardly able to fly himself, Occifer managed to get out of the mountains, collapsing in a meadow. He slept for three long days, before finally waking up to the nightmare of his life. His mother was dead, and so were his siblings. Everything he had was gone. His initial thought was to go and get his revenge on the wolves, but he knew that this would be in vain. He would merely lose his life. With a pack that large, there was little he could do.

He quickly decided to seek out his father. Knowing little about the dragon, save that he shared Occifer's odd colouration the hatchling set out. He hunted as he went, growing little by little everyday. Whenever Occifer would come across wolves he would either kill them or hide if the group was too large. He took a liking to their tough meat and began to actively seek them out, taking his revenge on his victims.

Occifer eventually found his father, an old, dying dragon. When Occifer told him the male did nothing but shrug. Infuriated by his passivity Occifer tried to attack his father, only to be pathetically smacked out of the way and told to leave. Hurt and demotivated, Occifer left, vowing that he alone would take revenge for his family.

And so, Occifer grew and grew, preying on the wolves around him more and more. His reputation grew and soon wolves ran in fear of the indigo dragon. He spent so much of his life enacting this revenge he left none for carrying on his legacy. Which he now intends to do.
