Name: Rashi'ik
Age: 31
Gender: Male
Appearance:

Personality:
Rashi'ik is a very loyal, determined adventurer. Wild at heart and ferocious in nature, he is unrelenting in his beliefs and suffers no insult upon his pride or those he cares for. His retribution is swift, yet his judgement is just. The magic of the swamp flows through his veins and he sometimes gets lost in trances or rituals during the day. At night, he is often plagued by nightmares of sickness sweeping across the land, which only serves to fuel his merciless search for the truth. In his interactions with others, Rashi'ik tends to withhold his judgement for a few seconds, and never says the first word. He feels as though everyone must prove themselves worthy to him, otherwise he might just walk away without so much as a comment. Given his rough demeanor and grave personality, he finds excessive revelry to be annoying and downright extraneous. As for the partakers in such reckless merriment, Rashi'ik has no love for them. For the most part, he is very quiet, opinionated and carries a heavy disdain for being trifled with.

Backstory:
Born in a Slyvis swamp, Rashi'ik lost his mother while he was but an infant due to an infection she contracted during his birthing. Despite the miserable conditions of the swamp, death during childbirth was rare thanks to ancient shamanic medicines and magic and it was believed that his mother's life force was given (some say stolen) by Rashi'ik at birth, earning him the title "Blood Born". As he aged, Rashi'ik was viewed with great respect and even greater fear by his peers, although the wise men of the village knew that Rashi'ik had not stolen his mother's life force, but that he was merely an unfortunate, misunderstood child. Viewed as a monster by some, he spent most of his days alone on the swamp, studying and observing the natural order of life. He learned that all that live, must die and carried that heavy burden with him from a very early age. Upon his eighteenth name day, he was summoned before the council of elders where he underwent a mystical ritual that would determine if he was suitable as a new shaman. After the elders threw different reagents upon the fire, Rashi'ik inhaled a hefty amount of smoke. When he didn't pass out, he began his shaman training, learning the art of herbal remedies and maladies as well as how to live off the swamp. By the time he was 25, Rashi'ik had become the most talented shaman of the village, his knowledge of life and death surpassed those of the village as he discovered new potions and ingredients that healed and harmed. He could not stop the inevitable, but he could help heal grave wounds and cure ailments with his potions and remedies. Their villages warriors would come to him seeking venoms for their weapons and soon his tribe became feared and respected throughout the land. Due to his knowledge, he was revered by even the elders of the village who would come to him with humble reverence, seeking guidance on the ways of life. Women brought their sick children, hunters came to be healed of their mortal wounds. Word of Rashi'ik, the Blood Born spread through the land and people would traverse the treachery of the swamp to seek his guidance. Merrik was one such traveler who would take Rashi'ik on a journey far from the swamps...

Dragon Gender: Male
Dragon Appearance:

General Personality:
They are strong willed, hard headed creatures that despise being dominated. The only living being they will answer to is their tamer, and even then they only agree to obey out of the love and respect infused by the bond.Truly one of the the more unusual breeds, these dragons make for interesting companions and unpredicatble friends. Tamers who are chosen by the Olive dragon have more adventurous tales than most others thanks to the dragons' deep woven curiosity and inability to acknowledge warnings like "Do Not Enter".

Additional Personality:
Mandragor is slow to emotion and prefers to observe rather than act. He is very observant, picking up on the slightest of details that Rashi'ik may tend to miss. He is more down to earth than Rashi'ik, preferring his physical abilities over spiritual ones. He sometimes views Rashi'ik as superstitious or downright weird.
