Tagasuhl is a small Water Dragon*. His torso is around the size of a average horse (16 hands), making it roughly four and a half feet long, and half of that tall and wide. From this torso he has a long neck, roughly the same length as his body (including the head) and from the other end an even longer sinuous tail, reaching twice the length of his torso at it's thin tip. His legs are not quite so high as a horse and as such he is much lower to the ground, coming up to around four feet at the shoulder. Since he lacks the usual bulk of many dragons he must make up for this deficiency with speed and flexibility.

Tag's entire body is covered in small closely interlocking scales. These scales are serrated about the edges and from underneath are tiny feather-like structures, tines, that give his hide the appearance of flesh from all but the closest of distances. His snout is narrow and small, ending in a razor sharp beak-like bone covering, behind which are his lips and teeth, cradling a long forked tongue. His crest is adorned with large ear-like feather tuffts and from the corner of his jaws thin tentacles trail behind his head and twist about seemingly with a mind of their own. Sunken behind bony plates are his eyes, small and faintly glowing. While not particularly expressive in regards to a human face his tufts, tines, and tentacles can convey his emotions clearly. Tag, unlike many dragons, does not have horns and his tail is simply long and prehensile - hardly fearsome weapons.

Tagashul's wings are a marvel of winged-kind - light, strong, flexible. Held together by few bones, and mostly cartilage and small muscles Tags wings can bend to nearly any shape that is needed, yet can withstand the strain of flight. At the apex of each wing are small grasping claws, nearly as dexterous as a human hand and with five digits. Though lacking a dedicated opposable digit, these claws are spread out and angled so that the farthest digit on either side can act as an opposing digit to three of the others on the opposing side. Coupled with his powerful legs, these flexible wings give Tag unparalleled maneuverability near the ground and in the caves he inhabits, allowing him to alter his velocity and direction mid leap. They even allow him to hover in place for a long while, utilizing an undulating motion similar some underwater fish.

Tagashuhls breath weapon is very strange owing to the fact that it is not magical, but natural. In the process of his normal breathing, Tagashuhl's lungs convert much of the incoming oxygen and hydrogen to internal sacs. He can then fuse these two elements into water that feeds into a Gular pouch at the base of his throat. Along the length of his neck is a series of chemical pouches that can either create a Heat Surplus or Heat Deficit. When water is sprayed from his Gular Skin, through his throat and out of his mouth, these chemical sacs alter the temperature of the water, allowing it to come out as searing hot steam or ice cold slush (or ice itself, in small bursts, with a little help from magic).

Magic*: Tagahsuhl holds sway over all water that passes through his system. He can manipulate it control it's temperature as well, though not nearly as quickly as he can when he breathes it. Tagashuhl controls water this way by designating a new "down" for the water to flow towards, and a new "up" for the steam to fly towards. Once made into Ice Tagashuhl can throw it around in chunks and in small jumps. To change the waters temperature he can slow and speed up it's molecules but it takes time. Tagashuhl has one additional ability, the only ability he has that can manipulate water that he has not passed through his system. With this ability he can designate any water in the area to treat him as "down" and flow towards and pool around his form.

*Tag's magic is not actually natural for him as he is more of a drake than a dragon (drake in this case being a non-sentient dragon-like creature). Early in his childhood he accidentally swallowed an equally young Water Elemental. When the water of the elements body was dispersed through Tagashuhl's system it did not dispel the Elemental's intelligence but instead, over time, merged it with the drake's. Years down the line the drake and the Elemental are one being with strong physical capabilities, a devastating mind, and a modest magical talent where water is concerned.

Tagashuhl has spent his life, short though it is for a dragon, protecting the several villages around his lake. In exchange for using the clear perfect waters of this lake (and the occasional fishing trips when supplies are low) the villages send Tagashuhl company, usually in the form of children or the elderly; those least integral to work. Tagashuhl has never minded who he has around to speak with though, as long as they can hold a conversation. Occasionally he even makes trips to each of the three villages to riddle with the townsfolk and do heavy lifting for them. Since that time Tag has grown restless and moved on to seek his knowledge and wisdom in other far flung places.
