INCOMINGName, Age, Gender, Race: Conra Harrac, 24, Female Dracotaur
Description: Racial~Large reptilian beings-average ten feet long from tail to snout, and over six feet tall, Dracotaurs are akin to heavyset, quadrupedal lizard-men. They are covered in tough scales and bony spikes, armed with sharp teeth and claws-their tails are also covered in spines or bony knobs, and capable of being brought to bear in a fight. They have five fingers on each hand, and four large, bony toes on each of their four feet.
Personal~Conra is a bit shorter and lighter than most of her people-only 6.5, and hardly 1500 pds. She has dark green scales interspersed with light brown-white stripes along the entire length of her body. Her eyes are deep, ocean blue-and her claws a shade of deep purple. Her belly is almost entirely a creamy white, soft and unarmored due to her young age. Otherwise she is fairly well muscled and pretty, for her species, without any obvious human dominant traits. Preferring human style garb, at least on her upper body, she usually prefers fashionable vests and chainmails that compliment her skin tone, and large brimmed hats for style-though all her head and bodywear had been modified to make room for the slightly translucent green frill that runs from the top of her head to the tip of her tail, which is shaped almost like a round, spiked mace. Various painted tattoos in bright gold adorn her body, many related to the element of fire, or the sun.
Her lower body is covered in somewhat more piecemeal armor, which looks cobbled together from other, more humanoid leggings.
Bio: Conra is only truly a visitor to the lands of Varian-hailing from another plane entirely, the Lands of the Feywold. A strange world where the seasons exist all in a single time, and constantly vie with another for supremacy-a world where the balance affects many others, like the spindle of a top, even the world Varian stands upon. The courts of Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter wax and wane, becoming stronger or weaker as time goes by-but no side has ever gained enough of an advantage to prove superior. The rampant energy of Spring might overcome the courage of Summer-but Summer will always prevail over Autumns stoic defenses...and Autumn can withstand the worst of Winters fury...and so on.
Given her position as an ordained Knight of Summer, though a young one, Conra herself might have been expecting a comfortable life of battle in the service of balance, but recent events have shaken the Feywold...the theft of an important artifact from one of Winters own temples, the Spike of Feynerial, has thrown the tender balance askew-by mortals, no less! Now the Forces of Spring have taken dominance-the element which, usually opposed by Winter, has the advantage over Summer.
In short, A desperate search has begun-the Spike must be found and returned to the court of Winter, before the balance of seasons is lost forever...And so, many warriors such as Conra have been sent-almost exiled-from their homes until they find it. Thus she finds herself, on a boat, heading the Kingdom of Varian-where omens have been told may hold a clue to the artifacts location. She knows the other courts have also sent agents to this land...but, one still has to eat however, and in lieu of utter disaster, has found the mortal lands to be quite interesting in themselves, a source of adventure beyond the scope of her ultimate mission.

Perks:
Positive~
Summer's Boon: Conra is a knight of summer, and has the advantage of courage and boldness-a sure weapon against the Knights of Autumn and their kind, whose powers and abilities are related to the Alchemic school of magic-enchantment and illusion.
Claws and Teeth: Dracotaurs have all the weapons they ever need ready at all times.
Tough Scales: Descended from Dragons, her race is known to have a tough reptilian hide, good as any armor.
Improved Parrying (2skp): Dracotaurs are not as nimble as many other races, unable to avoid damage as easily, and learn to deflect blows to a far more skillfull degree because of it, using armguards, shields and their natural armored hides.
Negative~
Summer's Bane: For everything in balance. The Knights of Spring and those creatures related to that sphere, usually armed with the strongest of white magics, will always have the advantage of her and her kind.
Cant fit through doors: There are disadvantages to being large. Being forced into a cramped space will seriously ruin any attempt at a stylish entrance. She's also a giant four legged lizard, and it is not easy to find a tailor who can easily accommodate her body style.
Equipment and Inventory:
Summer's Claw Gauntlets/Made of naturally grown Feywold Green Steel, these devices are common to Dracotaur warriors-enabling them to sheath their claws when in peace, and trade and parry blows when forced into battle. As an elementally aligned weapon, it is stronger and weaker against certain beings, and at different times of day, or certain places.
Cobbled Chainmail/Unable to bring armor from her homeland (summoning spells from her world have strict weight limits), Conra has been forced to buy or scavenge armor piecemeal and attach to various parts of her body, most of which is centered on the lower body.
Feywold Draught/A small decanter of clear liquid in a that contains a days nutrition and hydration in a single swallow, and had minor healing effects-it's almost empty, however, the gourd slowly drying out and dying.
Eye of Summer/A small blue crystal pendant worn around Conras neck, it allows her to communicate with her homeworld or back, though hardly longer than a few minutes and only once a day-the very peak of noon, on a clear, sunny day. It's usually restricted to official court business, but she occasionally uses it to speak with friends.

I know it's rough
If this works, let me have some feedback. I'm sure it can improved greatly.
Edit: Shit, I got competition by KHH in the Dragonman arena. :O
