Personality
Sikes tends to start out being a hard guy to earn his trust. Keeping it safe, he prefers to know what he's up against before he takes the next step. Thankfully, that makes him very careful around people and places. None the less, despite his "rough shell", he has a kind heart, never able to turn his back and look away at someone in need of help. It just takes a hard time for others to see that side of him cause of his lack of trust with people sometimes. But when one earns his trust, he becomes someone that you can be sure will watch your back in the time you need him most. He can be a tad bit technical about things at times, sometimes even missing jokes and other things due to that. While he always tries to keep a level head in even the most dangerous of situations, it can still be fairly easy to make him lose his temper. Especially if it involves someone that abuse their power for their own gain or simple bully others. Situations like that are one of the rare moments he would walk into a situation without thinking, just fixed on putting that person in their place.
Bio
The first years of Sikes' life were with his father. His mother having passed away when he was still young, his dad was the only family he had. Helping his father around the Blacksmith that he worked at outside of the city limits. Not being within the city walls, they would hunt their own food, grow crops, and gather their own minerals for the shop. He learned all that he know about tracking animals and how to use a sword from his father even as orders came along from the nearby city. It was when he was around 13 years old that this life would change. He was out in the middle of the day, fetching some more water from a stream back to their place. Unknown to him, his father was receiving some uninvited guests while Sikes was out. A pack of Orcs were savaging around, looking for goods and weapons, and have come across their blacksmith outside of the city walls. Raiding the place, his father fought back but was outnumbered. Managing to hold them off at least, the Orcs only got a few things before they were forced back. But as Sikes returned, he came to find his father still gravely injured from the attack. In an attempt to help him, he hurried to the city to try to find help. But no one would step outside of the city walls to help treat his father, worried for their own lives if those Orcs were still out there. He rushed back, hoping to at least be able to do something himself, but by that time, it was to late to do anything for his father.
Using what he learned from his father, he spent the rest of his years hunting and fending for himself. He wouldn't ask for help from the people that turned him down when his father needed him, getting whatever he would need from the area around his home. He continued to teach himself in using a blade and once he was ready, he began traveling from his old home. Doing hunting offers and other jobs from towns he passes by, he made a living with his sword work. His recent job has him traveling through ancient ruins that was said to have been home to a race of Dragons long ago. Little did he know that this simple shortcut through ruins would bring him into something big that was going on.

Personality
To anyone's first glance, Shade is a self centered Dragon that prefers things to just go his way right off the bat. Being the next in line for the leader of the Dark Dragon Tribe, he always had things given to him at first call. Because of this, he's had this slightly bossy attitude with others. People around him saw him as the next in line and that was it, so he never really had any true friends, just those that served him. But despite this annoying bit about him, he has a strong sense of what is right and wrong, always staying firm with his beliefs no mater what. If one were to help him better understand of the life outside the one he's had for many years, while it might be a rough road, he might manage to learn to just be slightly less bossy. Although, he will never abandon anyone in a time of need and stands firm in his self given task of stopping this war.
Bio
Ever since he was little, Shade would always hear the stories and history of his Tribe. Just like the others, he always dreamed of one day to be able to fly through the sky of Elendia and enjoy the world outside of their Dark Realm that they now lived in. But, even with this dream, he would manage to not stray from the right and wrong paths to such a goal. So, when tension started to grow between the Dragon Tribes, his own Tribe with that of the Light Dragon Tribe's, he tried his best to calm his father's anger. But topics kept resurfacing among meetings, accusing the Light Tribe for their now "prison" in the Dark Realm and away from their birth home. It got to a point that it was now official that they were on the path of war, a war that would defiantly destroy the very land they all wanted to live on again. No longer able to do anything with his father's actions, he decided that he only had one chance in stopping this. Go through the passage and try to find a way to keep them from breaking out before the Dragon Tribes all go into war.
The effects of going through the passage drained him of his power, returning him to a younger and smaller form in the ruins of his Tribe's old home. In this state, he only had his Breath ability, no longer able to use his others any longer. So, within the ruins of his Tribe's old home, he begins to search for a means to try and restore his power once again. Without them, he wouldn't stand a chance in trying to stop the Dragon Tribes from going to war. But deep down, despite his personality of being a bit a little full of himself, he still worries and fears the chance that there isn't anything that can be done.
