Personality
Kouen is a sweet tempered dragon, he enjoys being around others but he can draw back if there is too much going on. He does not like being dirty, so it’s a good thing he loves water as he is in it a lot. He is a bit scattered brained, he will start talking to someone one but suddenly stop walking off to pick up an oddly shaped rock he found he liked. He collects almost anything, shiny things are his favorite and he can come into trouble by snagging a humans new shovel just because he licked how it shined in the sun. He is often honor bound to things, he keeps his pride high and his moral even higher, to him only trash hurts those weaker than they are, and even worse will abandon friends in need. He is easy going but if he sees something trouble he will jump in ready to fight tooth, claw, and horn to fix it even if it costs him dearly; but then he hardly thinks enough to know if it will or will not.

He is a bit slow and easily amused, trusting someone just because they gave him a rock; but despite his low logical thinking he tries he very best in everything even if it means he messes up over and over again. His motto is, ‘There are a lot of things in this world, who’s to say which one is bad or not?’ Loyal to a fault this slow fellow will stick by friends even if they tried to stab in the back, ‘no one can offered to be picky about small things in this world when there are bigger things to take care of.’


History
He cannot remember much of what it was like when he was young, he remembered briefly a father and mother who looked after him lovingly and always trying to teach him to be good, but then one day they did not come back and they had only been with him for five years not nearly long enough for a baby dragon to learn everything he needs to know or even hunt for himself. He stayed in his den until one day a small family of Skyfox happened upon him; they took pity in the small dragon and caught many small things for him to eat and keeping him company while living in the den. He grew up slowly while the SkyFoxes grew very quickly and all died but still their family continued from generation to generation never leaving Kouen alone.

The Fox were very interesting to grow up with; they lived for each day and never thought about the future much since they were so busy with today. Kouen soon learned to do this as well and years went by with him growing steadily bigger and stronger until he was able to hunt for himself even helping the Fox with their meals though much of the time they preferred to hunt for themselves. He had any adventures growing up; one fox when he was small was his best play mate always helping him to sneak out so they could play stalker in the bushes looking for mice or frogs. At one time he had gotten lost for several days and when he was found everyone was happy and jumping around the foxes barking out and doing flips.

His days were peaceful and fine and soon he started seeing other dragons finding out he was at birth part of a clan called Curator, and when he was old enough he would be in charge of it like his father before him was but for now it was left unmanned but still going smoothly despite it and with persistence Kouen was left to stay with the foxes instead of moving to the temple. Still there came a day when the foxes wanted to move, they had stayed there for so many generations that they grew bored and felt lazy not having to worry about anything as they lived with the dragon. So they left, but one Fox stayed with him, his fur as white as snow with pale blue eyes; the little guy was blind but it never stopped him playing with everyone. So when Kouen moved to the temple so did the Fox whom he had given the name starlit to, and with the name he found they were able to speak so much easier and they understood words instead of noises!

Now he starts his new life together with starlit, and going in search for more dragons while learning rules of the clan and rules of being a dragon as well.

Dragon type

Eastern dragons tend to like higher altitudes then most, their main prey because of this tends to be Mountain goats, Yeti, and a few Snow leopards when found or a little lower in altitude. At summer they are likely to make a nest in rocks but in winter they will create snow caves in which to rest in perhaps not even coming out until warmer weather melts the ice that will form over them in their long winter sleeps. Some however live in rivers and lakes, eating fish, birds, and swans.

Eastern dragon's can be any color of the rainbow, in fact some say to have seen dragons that were indeed every color in the rainbow at one single time. Many dragons however have solid coloring with splashes of darker or lighter of that single tone. They will bite, claw, horn, or constrict their food or something that is attacking them; but they do have a fire though hardly used. Eastern dragons are normally a calm and happy sort, always ready for a party. However they also tend to be quiet toward other species and to humans they can seem as docile as a pet cat would be. This isn't to say they are all like this and in travels many claim to have seen an Eastern dragon's wreaking a town or destroying woods for unknown reasons.

These dragons have long snake like bodies with four legs, around their heads are a mane of feathers or fur, going down to end in a large tuff at the ends of their tail. Japanese have four toes, three in the front and one near the heel like a raptor. Chinese or imperial have five with four in the front and one like the other type in the back. No matter the type of Eastern dragon they have horns like a stag would have and any carry a pearl with them. It had once been thought to be an egg but then it was realized that babies were born with a pearl almost as big as they were. This pearl can be many colors and can grow bigger when the dragon feeds their own emotions into it; it said put on a staff can make humans able to do magic.


The Clan

The Curator clan was started back when humans and dragons were at war with each other, all Eastern dragons protected the young of any species that sought out their help in the hard times, and so they were give the name of guardian. The rules for this clan are a bit stiff, all must be loyal to the clan and none can breed outside of it unless their partner is willing to join the clan and uphold all the rules. None may attack humans, this would put everything they worked for so long ago in jeopardy; if any are found to have done this they will be erased from the clan as if they were never alive then kicked from it. Other dragon breeds can join the clan but they will never be able to gain a very high rank though they will never be outcaste and always protected.

These are only a few of the rules of this clan but all and all they are loyal to each other even if not blood related they all treat each other like family, and long ago there was many in this clan but now the Eastern blood as dried out and few seem to be around. The clan is still alive and always open to help, but the lack of Eastern’s is unnerving. They few left in the clan search out others of their kind, all while keeping the tradition alive and the contact with humans as gentle as possible, this clan after all lives in a human built shrine where humans look after them only asking for protection when times are hard.
