APPEARANCE:
The Dragon is about three meters at the shoulder, but appears far larger as he rears his long, serpentine neck up. His scales, so dark that they appear black, glimmer like shining gemstones when he moves. Sloppy, broken runes carve themselves along his sides, digging into flesh and plated scale. Jagged horns and spines protrude from his body, each as sharp as a knife, none sharper than the claws on his wide, leathery wings. His eyes, which glow molten when he uses the Force, are usually a cold iron color, hiding a cruel, patient intelligence. He brings with him the scent of heat, and old, musty blood.
So terrible is his appearance, one might forget Cin is so young, he's practically an infant of his species.

STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES
- Desolation - As a young Elder Dragon, Cin has all the benefits of his species. Force sensitivity. Wings. Claws. Scales. Fire.
- The Meddler - Most Children of Zildrog are content staying out of galactic affairs, quietly amassing size and power, hiding in deep space and caves until challenged. Not Cin. Cin has greater ambitions. Schemes.
- Force Affinity: Essence Transfer - Elder Dragons naturally have a talent in Essence Transfer, shifting their consciousness to occupy another host, which they call the Rite of the Sun. Cin, in particular, seems particularly adept in the skill, and plans to use it creatively.
- Terror - His is the face of evil. Both fighting a dragon, and speaking with one, can be intimidating for those with a weak will. Making connections can be difficult.
- Great Beast - A dragon has no need for sneaking around. Nor any ability to. Even as only an older hatchling, Cin is large, and it is very clear that he is a dangerous beast. No hiding who, or what he is.
- Big Head and Little Arms - A dragon has no need for technology. Cin doesn’t see the point of it, so he won’t use it. Which is fine, because no technology was made for him in mind anyways.
- Desolation - As a young Elder Dragon, Cin has all the benefits of his species. Force sensitivity. Wings. Claws. Scales. Fire.

The stone had been passed down for generations.
The oval rock, taller than a man and wider than five, and glittering an ancient black, was won in some war in Ukatis’ ancient history, or so the story goes in the old Thatcher Family lore. Promised to them by the King for their part in defeating a great evil, the Thatchers built their home around the stone, treating it like a work of art, a precious mineral.
At least, until the year 823 ABY, when the stone cracked. And the Dragon hatched.
The Thatcher’s estate burned down within the hour. The town around it burned soon after. Peasants fleeing into the night describe a creature the size of a horse, breathing fire and death upon the people, leaping from building to building on wings of deep black. The event, however horrifying, only destroyed a small hamlet, at the edge of civilization, and was quickly forgotten.
Cin did not enjoy his freedom for long. He was hunted down by a Court Mystic and his retinue, who brought him low. But before they could strike the killing blow… the Mystic stayed their hand. Convinced the hunters to capture the beast, and bring it to a cave on Mount Avara for study.
As the years passed, a Dark-side cult sprang up around studying the prehistoric beast, started by that original Mystic. They carved runes into the Dragon’s scales, binding its will to theirs. They used dark rituals, ramshackled together from what Witch and Sith magic they could scrounge up, to grow its power, while keeping it under their control.
They stayed hidden for eighty years, as Cin’s leash passed from hand to hand, until the year 902, when the current Dragonmaster, the descendant of that original Mystic, Mykus Cowl, decided the beast has grown enough. He emerged from hiding, riding the dragon, and intended to use it to overthrow King Horace von Cholmondeley.
And Cin can do nothing but bide his time, and wait for his opportunity.
