Name: Rubina Westerville "Ruby" 'Lake'
Gender: Female
Age:16
Personality:
Self reliant, rebellious and somewhat naughty would probably be some words that you could use to describe her. She's quite fiery, very active, and not really shy as she trained that away ages ago. She can be rather tsudere to people she likes. She's hard working when motivated, and tends to goof off or get bored when she's not.
Ruby is a girl who seeks some excitement and enlightenment in her life as she comes from a strict and sheltered life. Curious about the outside world and the experiences she could gain from not being constantly molded into perfection by various people in her life. She's not unfriendly as she has been taught to be rather well behaved towards others and will try to behave around new people she meets to make a good impression. However, there are times when she needs to just try new things, gain new experiences and just see things for herself.
One could say she's on a path to discovering who she truly is. Is she really the girl her parents want her to be? Or is she someone completely different? Only time will reveal the person she truly is or will grow into.

Background:
The daughter of a quite wealthy family, Rubina or 'Ruby' as she prefer being called have been lived a strict and controlled life. While her parents nearly never come home, they still forced their wills of what they liked Ruby to become upon her against her will. Wanting her to become the heir of their legacy they had quite strict ideals of what skills was required achieve that goal. While not being able to force their ideals upon her in person while being away, they kept contact with their servants who in turn carrie out their will. Most of her lifem Ruby have been raised, lectured and taught by servants and private tutors.
However, Ruby grew to dislike most of them as they seemed to have had a square view on what they thought would make a 'perfect girl'. Constant nagging and attempted corrections from her servants in response to her behavior made her grow increasingly resistant as she grew older and smarter. As she started seeing through their behavior, she grew rebellious, doing whatever she liked instead while letting others take responsibility for her actions. During most of her life, there was only one person she really trusted and could relate too, a butler named Jack Lake. He was nice to her and seemed to get her. He earned her trust over the years from her childhood through kindness and compassion. Ruby liked him a lot and continued to do so even as she grew older. He became somewhat of a father figure for her as she didn't see her real father very often and had grown to dislike him.
Being a lone child was quite tough, she had to shoulder whatever her parents tried to put on her, from learning how to act like a proper young lady to satisfy her mothers ideals. To how to run a company, from the ideals of her father. One moment she could be learning how to dance waltz and other dances, another she could be studying economics. It was tiresome, and the only way Ruby really got to vent was during her free time when she took to unleash pent up emotions often through her quirk and physical training. Interestingly enough, one of the few ways Jack helped her was by helping her train in Dragon-Fu, a somewhat combined material arts practice with dragon like abilities added in. He also helped her stretch, and actually helped her practice dancing in a fun way by teaching her that it could be used both in combat and interactions as it was important to be able to move around securely while also having attention on opponents and respond to their moves with her own.

Her young life was pretty much what one would expect, from an early age she was raised mostly by the servants and they became somewhat more of a family to her than what her real one ever was. As a child she hadn't started to dislike anyone just yet, but she had gotten some bad experiences from interacting with her parents.
The older she got, the less people she started to trust, mostly because there was too many folks to listen too and too few she could really relate with and feel like she belonged. They treated her as a little princess, and while they spoiled her, they also required a lot from her in return. Ruby learned that her parents thought they could just buy her affection if needed, but the older she got, the more she realized that they didn't realize how smart she was becoming.
The biggest moment in her life was probably when she started developing her quirk. She started growing horns and wings, suddenly turning more dragon like. It was difficult at first getting used to it, and she often accidentally sat fire to something which she ended up getting scolded for. As she grew, so did her appetite. She turned into somewhat of a glutton, wanting food very often, so much her servants thought she was going to get fat. Since it was 'unladylike' to eat a lot, they tried to restrict her.
It was another factor that made her stop liking most of the people around her. She started sneaking into the kitchen to grab whatever she could find. The chef however caught her, and wanted to teach her a lesson by putting out red hot chili peppers on the table, something to make her regret eating it. However, it turned out that it backfired as Ruby loved the taste of them; having a breath that literally could set things on fire, spicy things were nothing but treats and candy to her.

Growing into a teenager puberty would hit at some point. The spur of growth and development would be a time where she would wreck down all the foundations of her past life and test all limits. It was a time of big change, one that would make her into the girl she is today. From learning more advanced things to turning from a rather 'obedient' girl to a rebellious teenager.
Learning how to fight, how to lead, how to dance, and how to do difficult calculations. She grew more and more self reliant, trusting only Jack whom she shared just about all her teenage problems with. From the really embarrassing stuff to fun and games. She was just glad to have him around.

As for what she aspires for, Ruby dreams of making a name for herself in the world rather than following the strict path carved by her parents or ride on any wave they have created. It was because of this she made somewhat of an alias for herself. Ruby Lake, she called herself, because Ruby being a nickname she preferred over 'Young lady' which she had heard too many times. And the last name Lake, mostly because she often wish that Jack Lake would have been her father instead so she wouldn't have to go through all the bull crap just to live a good life.
Quirk:
Little Dragon:
Little Dragon is a quirk that grants Ruby characteristics of a dragon. Namely a dragon's horns, tail, wings, claws, and ability to breath fire.
Mostly shown by the illustration above, Several parts of her body are diffusely covered in a layer of tough scales. These protect her from most physical hazards and provide resistance to fire. The claws Ruby possesses are very sharp, allowing her to cut into things if she want too. Her wings are slightly smaller than that of a fully grown dragon, but these still allow her to fly or glide over short distances and heights.
While labeled as a strong quirk by some, it is not without its weaknesses. The traits that Ruby received are more complementary and do not provide any boost in her physical capabilities. Although not that obvious, Ruby doesn't posses more strength or endurance than a normal girl her age. And despite the resilience provided by her scales, not all parts of her body are protected by it, giving her several vulnerable areas that could be used against her. Lastly, sustained flight or a prolonged, steady stream of fire aren't things Ruby is capable off. Well, at least for now.

The specifics of Ruby's quirks come from a long line of selective breeding created as a pet project by several wealthy people who took after the Heroic business in that area. Yet instead of being specially for Heroic feats it was seen as a symbol of wealth and status in the world to have rare and unique quirks.
To create combinations to lead to mythological beasts,or quirks was some among the projects. Ruby's parents was a mixture of a fire breathing salamander and a bat winged deviless, combining into what would turn into A Dragon like quirk that Ruby inherited.

Talents and Skills:
Dragon-Fu: Basically a mixed material art formed with dragon parts added. She was taught this mostly from Jack Lake who knew a lot about martial arts, through a lot of training, and by seeking out the knowledge of how to advance it.
Gluttony of Spices Ruby is very found of anything spicy; from red hot chili peppers to whatever else is considered as 'super hot'. Being able to literally breathe fire, she is resistant to heat and almost complete immune to spicy food. She does however really like the taste of it.
Dancing:
Not a skill she's technically found off, but she can dance really well because she was forced to take learn it, the only one that could make her like doing it was Jack when he said she could use it to learn how to fight better becuase it gave mobility skills and the ability to read others.
