Description

Name: Matanuth (Ma-ta-newth)
BRONZE
Hex Color Code: #446633
Personality: Matanuth is an old Dragon, evident from his threadscoring and scars from felines on his hid flanks. As a young Dragon he was quite a spunky Bronze, having the energy one might except from a Blue. Even in his older age he still exhibits this energy, though not as extreme. He still chases females and he will often wrestle with younger Dragons (very carefully of course). He loves to go for long flights (flying straight from point A to point B) instead of using between as the cold makes his joints ache. In his younger years he was also quite the daredevil, trying to pull off stunts that his large size makes almost impossible, making onlooker's stomachs flip in anxiety.

Matanuth is also very vocal. He loves to chatter, and though he's quiet around strangers if he knows you then be prepared to have a Dragon asking you how your day was. He talks to others so much because he gets lonely easily. He's old enough to have seen many a wing-mate fall to thread and many of his clutchmates are long gone. He hates to be underestimated because of his age, and despite the wrinkles around his face and his scaring he is still a force to be reckoned with in the sky. Age has not yet sapped his stamina, and his experience with threadfall keeps him out of harms way. He has an uncanny ability to predict the direction a clump will fall and he's able to between inches away from a falling clump and flame it to harmless ash before blinking between again.

On the ground Matanuth is a bit slow due to his injuries on his left side. The Threadscores he received as a young Dragon healed remarkably well for Threadscore, though the injuries to his flank from a scrap with a feline have left him slightly lame in that leg, and he favors it when he walks. He often gets frustrated due to this, and his rider usually has to calm him down before the old guy hyperventilates.

His threadscoring occurs where it does because he rolled in order to prevent he clump from landing on his rider. He nearly sacrificed his front leg in the process but he was able to get medical attention soon enough to save it.

First Commission I've gotten since I put up my pricing journal. :3 I didn't get many specifics as to what was wanted, so I hope this is alright.

Character now belongs to: :iconalldanzig:
Artwork belongs to me

If you want anything changed Dan just let me know. You can also change anything about the personality you like. Usually I'd do a hatchling for this sort of thing but I had an idea for an older Dragon and decided to go with it. Hope you like it~
