Hector's dragon is known as [url]Behemoth[/url], or just Moth as a sort of nickname. The two are about as similar as day and night, in truth, and this causes a lot of problems between them. Whilst Hector is loud, brash and playful, Behemoth on the other hand is quiet, curious and rather intelligent. With such a contrast in personality, it is hard to believe that Moth bothered to imprint on the young lad. However, they're kind of stuck with each other, much to their discontent. Their differences don't stop at personality, however, as while Hector is colourful and exaggerative, Behemoth's entire body covered in pure white scales, with a pair of pale amber eyes to accompany this.

Brash ✝ Playful ✝ Energetic ✝ Childish ✝ Facetious ✝ Sarcastic
â—Ŗâ—ĸ
While Hector's own traits are certainly not as extreme as they used to be, it would be false to say that his personality overall is not - at the very least - a little overbearing. One of the main factors, or traits, which influence this common opinion would be his innately brash nature. This basically means that he is very self-assertive, and he will argue his own beliefs and opinions to Hell and back if he feels confident enough in them, but he'll do so in a very aggressive - almost rude - manner, making a lot of fuss and noise about it all - whether necessary or not. It is rare that he'll take no for an answer, mainly because he wants everything to go his way; he tends to act a little childishly otherwise, his frustration often taking the form of an immature temper tantrum. He's not proud enough to hold back.

However, when he's not trying to take control of a situation, you'll find him to be highly playful, and overwhelmingly energetic. Make no mistake, this does not mean he's happy-go-lucky or joyful in any way, but he always seems to be bursting with energy, therefore causing him to seem on edge all of the time, wanting to move and fill his time with reckless activities. He can seem very skittish at times, and almost paranoid. These habits also tie into his childish nature, mainly because he becomes very distressed and quite frankly annoying when he is bored. He'll start to bug others by invading in their personal space, asking intrusive questions, making a lot of noise to catch their attention, threatening to break something, etc. There isn't anything he won't do if he feels he's being ignored, and will rarely take a moment to process the consequences of this; he paints himself in the light of the victim if he is scolded, and can be highly emotional if he thinks he's being targeted by anyone, which causes him to act out.

It is because Hector is so immature that he never accepts responsibility for anything, and he'll often act in a very inappropriate manner if he sees that situation as being too serious for his liking. This means, in essence, that he'll crack a stupid joke, fart or burp just to fill an awkward silence, and then grin devilishly afterwards like nothing even happened, or he can't fend off insulting comments which may or may not upset the other person, simply because he didn't bother to think before speaking. Although, Hector will rarely ever understand why something is wrong, therefore removing him off any sense of social etiquette or morals. This, in turn, can sometimes cause him to seem a little dim-witted, and other times bitter. Unfortunately, it is only enhanced by his sarcastic tendencies and sharp tongue.

Hector does have some redeeming qualities, which appear only rarely and greatly contrast all of the aforementioned traits whilst still being directly linked to his childishness. This is mainly because - and it is important to remember this - the traits which Hector puts forward greatly vary/depend upon the situation at hand, and the company he finds himself in. He tends to be a lot sweeter around his friends, meaning that he is constantly trying to act in an adorable manner just to please them. He cares greatly for others, and while he's not entirely selfless, he finds no issue with helping his friends out whenever he finds the opportunity. In addition to this, he finds himself highly curious about the happenings and people around him; much comparable to a child, he is always finding new ways to create and act, therefore it is not hard to believe that he's constantly trying to better himself for the sake of maintaining bonds.

Despite everything, Hector is big on respect and earning trust. He needs to be able to feel comfortable around others if he is to reveal his better traits. However, this is only possible if he feels he is respected as a human being; he gives respect to those who've earned it... Somewhat.

L I K E S
It is clear from his everyday activities that Hector is a major nerd, although he prefers to refer to himself as a 'gamer'. He spends most, if not all, of is time tapping away at his computer, either playing browser games or writing some type of fanfiction for an anime or TV show he finds himself infatuated himself with at that time. He rarely does anything productive with his time, but his varied knowledge of completely irrelevant topics is something to behold. It is unknown whether he actually researches anything, but it's not entirely impossible to believe that he does. Aside from computers and technology, Hector finds himself enjoying the occasional book, though rarely the 'solid copy' kind. He reads everything online. He's only really interested in fantasy/action/adventure books, by such authors as Derek Landy or Veronica Roth. Another obvious love of Hector's would be food. He eats anything and everything he can get his hands on, within reason, and is always hunting down meals. He could eat more than his own weight's worth of food in one sitting.

D I S L I K E S
One of the main things Hector absolutely hates is being controlled; being told he can't do something or go somewhere, being told he can't have something he wants, or pretty much anything of that degree. It causes him to burst into fits of temper and childish immaturity. If he wants something to go his way, he'll be damned if anything besides that actually happens. Similarly to this, he hates being told off for something, mainly because he lacks the understanding of what he's actually done wrong. He sees it as unfair, and he's the type to hold grudges so he won't forget it easily. On a completely different note, Hector hates being mistaken for a girl. His feminine appearance (long hair, delicate features, etc) give him a somewhat androgynous appearance, accompanied by his childish/girly tendencies, often confuse people, and they are frequently surprised to discover that he's male. Such things cause his temper to act up, and he'll often lash out against them.

F E A R S
Hector fears being unable to act; this has a lot of variations (for want of a better term), and can be fuelled into a lot of other smaller fears. One of which would be physically being unable to move his own body, which in turn takes the form of a fear of being paralysed or even injured. As such, he often finds himself cowering away from dangerous or harmful situations at all costs; this paints him in the light of a coward, plain and simple. In addition, he fears confined spaces which will also prevent movement. Another smaller fear within the inability to act would be more psychological/emotional, because it centres around not being able to find a reasonable solution for a presented problem, or that his fear and cowardice will cause him to freeze up and hesitate.

H A B I T S
â–ē Hector often spends time brushing his hair, whether this is in the morning, in preparation of something, or simply to pass the time; there is something oddly comforting about the feeling of a brush combing through his hair. It reminds him of his mother, somewhat.
â–ē It's very obvious, but Hector cannot help himself. When he finds himself bored or wanting someone's attention, he'll often throw things at them, prod them, or even blackmail/bribe them into spending time with him, simply to satisfy his need for companionship and the like.
â–ē If Hector hears a word, phrase or concept that he does not fully understand, the first thing he'll do is find a device to access the internet (laptop, tablet, phone, etc.) and research it. This both expands his knowledge of vocabulary, and ensures he understands everything going on.
â–ē Asking a lot of questions is something common for Hector, mainly due to his curious and inquisitive nature. Whether these questions are intrusive or not, it makes no difference. He always wants to find out more about people and their lives; he is not so easily discouraged, either.


S T R E N G T H S
One of Hector's most notable strengths would be his driven nature; he is heavily motivated by goals he sets for himself on a regular basis (as well as the rewards), and will use his determined mind-set to the fullest advantage to achieve them. While some would see his persistent nature as annoying or overbearing in most everyday cases, there are quite a few times in which this benefits Hector. His lack of responsibility has nothing to do with this, and does not affect him. That focuses mainly on the long-term, whilst a lot of the goals Hector sets for himself can be achieved quickly and with minimal fuss; though his determination cannot be denied so easily, it is because of his lack of focus overall that he has difficulty sticking to larger targets for improvement.

F L A W S
As one would have no problem or hesitation in assuming, Hector has an overabundance of flaws which quite easily weight-out all of the good stuff. However, the flaws listed here will be mostly physical, as opposed to psychological/emotional as mentioned previously throughout the sheet. One of his main flaws would be his utter lack of physical strength; being unusually slim, it is not hard to imagine Hector being picked up and snapped clean in half without minimal issue. As well as lacking a decent amount of muscle, Hector's lack of a good diet and exercise means that he is generally unfit and - in a lot of ways - unhealthy. While he may seem energetic, he is not able to partake in many sporting activities due to the fact that he'll become breathless easily, and his muscles will begin to scream and ache after only a short while. He finds himself resting quite a lot to make up for this, or consuming energy/caffeinated drinks in order to give himself a boost. But with this comes the idea that he'll crash hard after a while.

A P P E A R A N C E__D E S C R I P T I O N
As previously mentioned, Hector has an outwardly androgynous appearance. Androgyny is defined as a combination of both masculine and feminine physical features and behavioural traits (for example: a female could have just as many masculine traits, or a male could have just as many feminine traits). This, as a result, means that it is somewhat difficult to define a person as either one gender or the other at first glance. The main features which actively contribute to other people's confusion would be his long hair, which reaches down to just below his shoulders (to the collar bone when pulled forward). His fringe is thick, and hangs down the right side of his face, covering the eye almost completely most of the time. It is dyed purple in colour, which is stereotypically a rather feminine colour, and his large - almost dazzling - irises are covered with purple contacts, coloured to match his hair identically. These two abnormal colourings only work to enhance his pale complexion, and in turn make his features delicate - very feminine, as far as typically male facial features go. Another contributing factor is his petite figure; he stands at a height of around 5'2" (which is quite short for someone of his age) with a slim body to accompany this. It is quite common for people to assume Hector is merely a flat-chested girl because of this; which is also as a result of his baggy clothes - they work to hide his figure, therefore leaving it a mystery as to whether he has curves or muscles; in reality his body is perfectly straight, and without either. Hector can fall under the category of 'boy-lolita', which is a term used to describe those who are much older than they appear to be, but will purposely make themselves look young - in Hector's case, it is mainly to preserve a look of innocence and sweetness.

C L O T H I N G__S T Y L E
Although it is mentioned in the above paragraph that Hector favours baggy clothing to be able to hide his figure from public judgement, this is only really applicable to his torso, which is the main indicative of his true gender; male. He wears loose-fitting t-shirts, sweaters, cardigans and hoodies with fluent regularity. However, his legs are stick-thin, and so any normal jeans will drown him completely, therefore he wears skinny jeans which are skin-tight on others, merely so that he is able to retain some sense of normality with regards to his weight. Often times, he can be caught in such things as jeggings or tights, because they work just as well as, if not better than, jeans. His style is overall very basic; he's not one for adorning his wrists and such in jewellery, and it is rare that he'll ever bother with scarves or hats. Such is not his way; they feel like clutter, unnecessary and only meant to decorate one's body in order to grab attention. He does not want people to stare at him more than they already do. However, he did have his ears pierced as a child, and keeps the earrings in only as a link to his past life and to show some odd sense of respect to his parents for their efforts. With regards to colour schemes, Hector likes to keep his options open, though - as his hair and eyes would suggest - he loves the colour purple; the majority of his clothes are.

M A N N E R I S M S
With the accompaniment of his clothes and physical features, Hector also acts in a very feminine manner. This is evident mainly in the way he carries himself in his day-to-day life. Despite his loud, outstanding personality, Hector holds himself in a very timid and delicate way, almost as if a slight breeze could knock him on his side without even the slightest hint of trouble. With his hands clasped in front of or behind him, Hector seems to be nervous almost all of the time, like merely being in other people's company is enough to make him break down and cry. This, of course, changes when he's around his close friends or roommates, but not by a whole lot - just enough to be mildly noticeable. Even then, he stands almost in the way you'd expect a young girl to; he often sways from side to side, moves his feet around frequently, plays with the edges of his shirt or his belt loops, etc. He sits in ways you'd expect to really hurt a male (for obvious reasons) but acts like it barely phases him at all. On a completely different note, he can even stay in keeping with the aforementioned qualities when he's in a bad temper; he'll stick his hip out to one side and rest his hand on it or cross his arms, he'll pucker his lips out when he disapproves of something, etc. He'll exaggerate when he talks by using his entire body to accompany his speech, but it can be contained to one area.

B A C K G R O U N D
Hector was born into the sort of hippy-dippy family you'd expect to be off living their lives in a trailer somewhere; which is, as it stands, completely true information. He grew up in a cramped living space, with his parents and younger brother all sharing one king-sized bed with him in their little caravan-styled home. This was located in the middle of a woodland area, isolated from all kings of society, until he was about 12 years old - upon which point they were made to relocate to a trailer park due to issues which Hector was not informed of at the time. They stared there for a long, long time. It is assumed from this that Hector never lived a privileged life. He never had the things he wanted when he wanted them, which he now blames for his constant desire to grab onto anything he wants before anyone else can.

S C H O O L
Hector attended any and all local schools within the area his parents decided to settle in, meaning that he had to swap and change quite a lot, and never really had enough time to develop any meaningful relationships with his peers. Not that he had a chance in hell of that anyway; his poor lifestyle made him a target of other people's bullying, which therefore allowed his negative qualities to flourish and a nasty temper to form. That only proceeded to make him even more unpopular, if that was even possible. He tried, after a while, to stop focusing on other people's views, and instead on his high school classes. He chose to study I.T. and Media, mainly because such concepts as 'technology' were completely foreign to him, and his natural curiosity pushed his decision. He ended up being drawn into that life, where you could discover anything you wanted with a few clicks. It was this newfound discover that pushed him to change his life, possibly for the better.

O C C U P A T I O N
N/A - Upon leaving school, Hector made the attempt to use his Media and I.T. qualifications in order to become an I.T. technician, journalist, web designer, etc. Pretty much anything in that area of work. However, each time, he was refused a job for one reason or another (mainly due to his poor communication skills), and relies on others to pay his rent for him; he fully intends to repay them, but he doesn't quite know how as of right now.

O T H E R
Nothing, as of right now.

"No way you are real."

That's what Alex had said exactly two seconds after he saw six little beaks peck their way out of what appeared to be dragon eggs. That's what he thought as the turquoise little creature stared at him, white eyes begging to be loved or perhaps fed. He honestly wasn't sure but the noises seemed rather whiny.

However, let's dial back an hour or two because the origin of a story is just as important as its end.

Uriel, Alexander's psuedo-sibling invited him and Roisin Raisin to a block (floor?) party which really only consisted of four rooms as the complex itself was rather small. At the time he was supposed to go to pick-up basketball with his friends but Uriel being the mother she was, he couldn't disappoint her and decided that he ought to at least say "hi" even though he didn't know the others very well. Most were well above his age range and probably not athletic in any aspect. Still, he went and the first hour was tolerable.

They had chips, drinks, movies, and just about everything a generic party needed but one of them wanted eggs. He hadn't actually remembered who but he swears up and down it wasn't him. Well in the interest of saving cartons, someone pointed out that the half-carton of eggs would be more cost effective and it would have been if not for the fact that there were "mother fucking dragons!" inside. Really, the omelets sounded amazing and all but here they were with theses odd creatures.

"Scree?" the one presumably known as his dragon squeaked.

Ah yes right he couldn't retreat to his phone where things made sense.

"Okay well does anyone know how to take care of these things?"

The turquoise creature didn't so much crawl as slither away from the carton and towards him.

"Scree!"

"Anyone?"

"How the fuck do you mix up dragon eggs with chicken eggs? Seriously, somebody tell me how the hell that happened. There's got to be some difference between them and normal chicken eggs; I'm sure of it."

Marilla stared at the tiny little dragons, shocked. Dragons couldn't be real, though, obviously they were. They were real an tiny and crawling on her friend's kitchen floor because someone had tried to make omelettes out of them. In their defense, they'd thought they were chicken eggs, but still. This was awesome though. Seriously awesome. They were tiny adorable dragons. And- wait a moment. Fuck omelettes. They could have real live dragons. They could actually raise these little guys and take care of them and it'd be awesome.

"Wait! I think we've got one chicken," She pointed out, looking down at the tiny thing that had begun crawling over to her. "It's blue though..."

She reached down, lifting it up and holding in her hands gently, like one would with a cat or dog. She held it eye level, studying the little creature, but perhaps that wasn't the best decision as it decided to nip her hand gently. It wasn't painful as it seemed like the thing didn't have any teeth yet, but it was startling.

"False alarm. It's just a very feathered dragon. It's so cute! And tiny. Man, these dragons really are small. Anyone here know anything about real dragons? My knowledge is limited to fantasy novels and I don't think that's very helpful because I didn't even have a clue that these guys could have feathers."

"Well, that's not an omelette."

That incredibly eloquent and intelligent sentence had come out of Roi's mouth only a few hours prior. She was still thinking that she probably could have said something slightly more intelligent, but honestly, she was a bit preoccupied to be thinking about her dumb outburst. She had a little dragon hatchling who was definitely not an omelette, and seemed quite a bit offended to be even considered as one. Roi had tried to hold the cute little white hatchling, but was immediately discouraged when the dragon bit her finger. She wasn't alone- everyone else who tried to pick up or cuddle their dragons met the same fate. Luckily, the hatchling didn't seem to have deadly fangs or anything yet.

After Roi got over her bitten finger and wounded pride and gathered the courage to accept the little white dragon who seemed to be following her around like a bird to its mother, she looked around at her friends.

After her dragon's egg had been cracked and nearly fried, the other hatchlings started to break their shells open. A little blue feathered dragon started crawling over to Rilla, and Roi smiled when she mistook the dragon for a chicken. Taking a good look at her white dragon, who was standing on its hind legs like a meerkat, Roi tried to figure out whether her hatchling was a boy or a girl.

Unsure of how to proceed, Roi just tried to remember what she knew about dragons from all of the fantasy she'd ever read, all the art she'd ever seen, and all the myths she'd heard- but none of them mentioned how to raise a dragon. What did they eat? How did they interact with others? There was so much she didn't know, but Roi at least knew she had to make the best of it.

Ned was not paying attention to the commotion and was focusing on planning which elementary school Serena should go to. He didn't feel he fitted in with the crowd as he was much older then all of them. He felt more like a chaperone then a participant of this omelette party.

That's when he felt a scaly touch on his leg, it startled him and he saw it, a black lizard. It must be a lizard with wings. What else can it be? He then noticed that there were several of these critters around the room, that's when he heard Marilla say "How the fuck do you mix up dragon eggs with chicken eggs?".

These were...dragons...? That would explain the wings.

Ned steeled himself to pull on the wings to see if they are fake. If they are fake, they are not dragons, if they are real...he just found a member of a legendary species.
Ned tugged hard on the black lizard's wings, the thing bit him as if it was angry. The wings were real. They were dragons that he heard in story books.

That also means he can't just put them it in the wild. He has to deal with it somehow.
Ned was devastated that this fiasco had happened on the year that he has to work out the financial issues for Serena's admittance to elementary school.

"Fuckin' shit...why me...?'
