i surrender

'tis the end.

the Guy's name is Gryone, also known as Flamefeather.
he lives on Rai, a planet with ludicrous, dangerous amounts of daytime UV radiation, but originates from Terra Confracta, the Sapient Concorporite world, and thus has made himself immune to the effects, turning his skin pitch black.

this is him on the intermediate world Ouroburos that is populated by dragons.

the feathers and leather are all clothing, everything below the knee is real.
the Leg bands hide mechanical components and are present on only one leg. the mechanical components are from Planet Titan, so he's damn well traveled.

yaay my worlds are a multiverse now T_T
constantly buzzing, growing like a malignant tumor in my head, feeding on what i hear and see and touch.....

he's axius's Senior but his age is kinda indeterminable seeing how interplanetary Auratic travel kiiiiiiinda plays with time. like space travel does.

The Dragon is Shivirashu. a Human-given name. he's a tropical species, 'cause, you know. how the hell is one supposed to stalk anything when bright blue/turquoise.
shivirashu is curious and talkative. Auratics give dragons the ability to think at around human level despite the absence of sufficient skull volume.

also. literally my first time seriously trying to draw river water. T_T i'm so, so sorry.
