Red Wizard

Umbra Rose Condos

If you try to take Velvet as a trophy, she will be the single most annoying trophy you have ever owned.

@Lemons

Aaaw, don't be like that, little bitey-bat! You like video games? You can have video games! Just as long as I can have you! :D

Umbra Rose Condos

Oh hey cool a brand new video game fund for Velvet opened up! Good luck killing her without stake and silver! Burn her to ash that blows away in the wind? She'll just reform in her crypt at the next sunset!

@Lemons

No need for killing, silly! Ryū would be delighted to add such a unique individual to her hoard :3

Where/how do you make them? I'd love to see AI tackle Alphonse as a mothman..

@Morgannis

I use DALL-E. If you give me a description or general idea of what you want, I can try generating some images for you!

Umbra Rose Condos

Damn, how do you find such good pictures?

@Sky Blue

I make them with AI :) You could say I'm a bit of a prompt wizard (happy to take requests, by the way!)

Umbra Rose Condos

You must like red. I'm not sure what gave me that idea but red just seems to be a thing for you.

@BunniesOfDoom

I guess you could say it's a bit of a theme as of late! I find that having a clear theme helps me with inspiration when I'm writing :D

a Tale of High Adventure!

@Bacon
Ozza, the bouncer, halted the party as they were about to enter the establishment by raising a meaty palm in their way. He gave them a quick glance from head to toe, as if taking their measure, then rolled his shoulders and stuck his thumbs in his belt. "Greetings, my lords and ladies, and welcome to the Three Tails tavern" he said, "We offer food and drink for the hungry and thirsty, and lodgings for the weary, for a very reasonable price. As guests under our host Zarethas roof, you're expected to behave yourself and stay out of trouble. And no fiddling with the maids and pages. It's the lady hosts say that goes in here, and mine. As long as you can abide by that, and pay what you owe, you're all very welcome to stay. Alright, in you go."

As the armored fellow walked up to him, Ozza raised an eyebrow but otherwise didn't move. Peculiar thing, wearing a full helmet like that in broad daylight and outside of battle, but Ozza wasn't one to judge. Every man has his reasons, after all, and he'd seen plenty stranger still in his days as a bouncer. Besides, his body language seemed timid enough, so there probably wasn't anything to worry about. Probably. "Vaskandar, huh?" he replied, allowing himself a small smile and quiet chuckle, "Picked you right off the harbor, didn't he? He's got an eye for that sort of thing, he does. Aye, the mistress should have work for you lot, if you're the type Vaskandar'd send our way. If you don't mind staying a while, I'll have a page fetch you once the mistress has concluded her present business. Have a drink on the house, why don't you? Tell 'em Ozza said so."

He looked down at his cudgel as Caleb complimented it, tapping the handle with a thick finger. "Aye" he said, "This old bugger has seen me through some rough times, all right. It's only fair I see to it every once in a while in return, right? You a fighting man, sir?"

Ryū doesn't sound like she has a lot of room in her apartment to stretch out.

@Expendable

You're right! Maybe I should add a bit about a secret room hidden behind the fireplace (revolving, of course) that's a cavernous "bedroom" with a big hoard of gold in the center, which serves as her bed :P

The Red Dragon

---

Human Disguise

True Form

---

Name: Ryū
Appearance: In her human disguise Ryū is a 5'2" girl in her late teens, with tousled shoulderlength red hair, vivid yellow eyes, and fair skin which is unusually hot to the touch. She has a predatory gaze and blinks much less than what is customary. Observing her, one often gets the feeling she is bigger than she seems, which is an understatement.

In her true form Ryū is a great red dragon, around 100' from nose to tip. She has tough red scales, black horns, glowing yellow eyes, large bat-like wings, clawed hands and feet, and a long tail. Her body radiates heat and smells of sulphur.

Race: Red Dragon
Racial Traits: In her human disguise Ryū is freakishly strong and tough for a 5 foot teenage girl, but is incapable of her other natural abilities. As a dragon Ryū can breathe fire and fly among other draconic abilities.

Requirements: None.

Personality: Ryū is the archetypical dragon, born with a sense of superiority towards other "lesser" beings, which are almost regarded as mere prey or pawns to be used at her whim. This arrogance doesn't equate to stupidity, however, and the dragon is keenly aware of and sometimes intimidated by individuals of great power and accomplishment. Like all dragons, Ryū is a hoarder, born with a need to accumulate riches in her lair, be they gold or other valuables.

Background: Once upon a time, Ryū used to be a proper blight on the land, kidnapping princesses, burning villages, and the lot. Her hoard was impressive, and her heart instilled terror in the hearts of men. Like most of her kind, however, her infamy attracted ever more powerful heroes hoping to slay her and rid the realms of her tyranny. In the end, she had to hide herself away to avoid destruction or, worse, incarceration, and ended up at the Umbra Rose Condo complex. Here she bides her time, and tries to learn more about the populace she intends to prey upon to better infiltrate their society in modern times.

Building, Floor, and room: Building 3, Floor 3, Room 3.

Room description: Grey concrete walls, dark red leather u-shaped couch, low coffee table in dark wood, low hanging central ceiling lamp, modern sleek cubistic fireplace opposite couch, dark wood shelves and cases along the walls, lots of paraphernalia in metallic hues; bronze, silver, gold, old-looking books in bookcases. Dark lighting, warm orange hue, shadows. Secret room hidden behind the fireplace (revolving, of course) that's a cavernous "bedroom" with a big hoard of gold in the center, which serves as her bed
