Biography
Leshen the Dragon Hunter so it’s come to this Theme: Steel for Humans |
━━ story ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
If there was one thing true about Leshen, it was that he was careful. He crept closer, the only sound to hear was rustling leaves and branches. If he did it right━and he ways did━the dragon would have no idea what happened before he knew nothing at all, ever again. It seemed rather unfair. After all, the Fae was only about half his size, and clearly muscle wasn’t one of his favored attributes. But, then, Leshen knew better than to underestimate a Fae dragon. Just as he stepped into the clearing toward him, there was the sound of moss-shifting rocks and a solid click, like one pebble hitting another. A magical monstrosity, a golem made of magic and rocks, blinked at him placidly from its hiding place between two trees and camouflaged by a nearby boulder. “Intruder,” a fabricated gravelly voice said. The Fae whipped around, tail curling. “I thought you were coming.” “I thought you’d think so.” Under his skull helmet, Leshen smiled. “You do realize, I can’t let you go. You might come back, and, really, this is the best outcome I could have hoped for.” Behind the Fae, Leshen saw a dozen more amber eyes pull open. Rows and rows of rocks as animated protectors. And for one so small and so powerful. “I wasn’t planning on leaving.” Leshen clawed the dirt, finding purchase with the surrounding trees. A sound like a crow’s call broke through the distant branches. “Then let us begin.” The Fae’s wings fluttered as he lifted his claws. The Earthen sentries rose, picking up boulders and other nearby objects handy as weapons. The flock of deathseekers descended, and Leshen approached his quarry. |

━━ history ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
|
The Tempest Chase does have codified rules, thanks to the likes of Cek and other dragons concerned with process and justice, and one of those most-kept rules is that current, practicing assassins are not allowed in their midst. Of course, the best assassins are quite difficult to find, and there’s enough odd about Leshen that his profession never really came up. Leshen does not believe he is a dragon, even though he takes the form of a Skydancer. Rather, he is the personification of forest itself, a strange avatar or spirit he cannot trace in blood, only a lineage in roots. Like the Lightweaver’s injunction against Imperials, Leshen believes that all of dragonkind and Beasts were a mistake. He believes his glade was perfect until dragons first passed that way, pristine until Beasts dropped their feathers and fur all over the place. When he could no longer abide these intrusions, he began to fight back. Even though he’s probably just a dragon, Leshen easily speaks to other creatures of the woods, including a flock of death seekers that obey his every command. His affinity with various creatures of nature, regardless of element, is why he works with the Tempest Chase. Even though he doesn’t see the Tempest Chase in any more friendly terms than any other dragons, he has to admit they are doing something to protect nature, even if most of the time its from itself. In reality, a reality that Leshen denies, he is simply, truly, a Skydancer. Abandoned to Nature and left to die, he has no idea where he came from. He knows that if he has parents, he must have them; his former clanmates deserve every lonely moment they left him to as a hatchling. But he does know where he’s going. And that’s, really, all that matters. Leshen is probably the most obvious corruption of a Nature dragon there is. Life, death, and even targeted extinction is just as much a way of nature as cooperation and symbiosis. His greatest virtue is his selflessness; he has no care about what he wants, only what he believes is best for the world. Of course, in Leshen’s case, a little selfishness for what he wants and the dragons he cares most about might do him some good. |
━━ familiar ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
None in the flock of Death Seekers that Leshen commands are known to him personally. He doesn’t even have a name for them; they simply seem to appear when he calls on them. Though this ability is not unknown among Nature dragons━it’s actually probably quite common━Leshen uses the Death Seekers as everything from weapons to distractions to a smoke screen so he can escape unharmed. Though Leshen isn’t cognizant of it, the flock does have a leader, and that leader often perches herself in the antlers affixed to the skull Leshen wears. Other dragons call her Yen. |
━━ contracts ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
A Pearlcatcher named Estera hired Leshen to hunt down one named Pallis. There wasn’t very much information on the matter, but the story goes that the latter stole the former’s pearl. That’s apparently a big deal for a Pearlcatcher. Leshen doesn’t much care, so long as he gets paid. It’s tough to get around in a dragon’s world without money of some kind. It’s clear that he’ll have to do some investigative work in order to track down this fiend, though from stories it doesn’t seem like he’s doing his best to hide. |
Perhaps only one dragon exists that hates Skajin more than Leshen does. As necromancers are wont to do, he keeps raising dragons from the dead, sometimes even from a dead that Leshen put them in. It’s annoying to the point that Leshen’s motives for hunting down Skajin are almost entirely his own. Of course, it helps that Typics also hired him to help him destroy this foul necromancer. Leshen has worked with Typics so closely now he almost considers them friends, though he’d deny that. |
Denali, unlike Leshen, is a forest spirit of some kind, and one that refuses to talk to most dragons. She considers Leshen a kindred spirit, but Leshen doesn’t appreciate that Denali’s scope is too narrow: she only cares about dragons that enter her woods. She doesn’t seem to realize there are woods all over the world, and dragons that even live in them. All the same, Leshen has no ill will toward her and refuses to participate in any hunts against her. Perhaps she has the right of it: there’s only so much one being can do. |
