Quicksilver
Quicksilver (a.k.a. Q)
Quicksilver is a silver dragon, and the main companion of DM.
Physical Description
General Physical Condition
Quicksilver is a silver dragon with overlapping metal scales. Her horns lay back relatively straight and flat against her head, curving down slightly toward her neck.
Special abilities
- Fire Breath: Quicksilver has the ability to breathe fire. Most metal dragons' flame color matches the color that their metal would burn in a flame test. However, since silver produces no notable color, Quicksilver's fire is simply standard orange, tinging blue the closer it gets to her mouth.
- Magic Detection
- Metallokinesis: Quicksilver has the ability to use metal-based magic, but this ability is still in its infancy, and is something she is actively working to hone and improve.
- Supernatural Speed: To date, nobody has beaten Quicksilver in a race. Despite the heavy makeup of her metal scales, Quicksilver is one of the fastest dragons alive, and her skill in the air is unparalleled, making her something of a prodigy.
- Telepathy: Like all dragons, Quicksilver communicates with other people telepathically, projecting her thoughts into others' minds.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Quicksilver was born in a forest, outside of Zytria, a human settlement, located on the continent of Ameirix. She hatched in front of DM, who was practicing his magic at the time. After a dragon attack on Zytria, DM's home city, DM had to make a choice of whether to kill or spare her, and upon deciding to save her life, he took her and fled the continent. For years they traveled looking for a place away from humans to stay, and during this time, Quicksilver grew rapidly, making her harder to hide. Eventually, they settled on the continent of Eistros. DM asked for help from the ones already living there, the elves, and although they were repulsed at first, given humanity's actions during the great war, Quicksilver managed to convince them by acting as DM's character witness. They were able to carve out a cave in the side of a mountain to live in, and as DM rescued more dragons, the cave grew in size. To this day, Quicksilver still lives with DM in his cave, waiting for the day when humans and non-humans can live in peace once more.

Vices & Personality flaws
Quicksilver is still barely an infant in terms of dragon years, and being raised by DM has caused her to lack the mature air that most dragons have. She can be just as impulsive as DM is, and sometimes gets caught up in whatever he's doing without thinking ahead.
