Softscaled Vivian II

"Such incredible talent for battle at such a young age, some might find it incredible, I find it sad, we truly live on dark time when those who should be playing are the ones on the battlefield"

-Deborah Jewelspark-

Those who don't know Vivian see only a cheery and upbeat young dragoness, while those who do know that she posses strength and talent for battle that would put veterans to shame. The land on the north continent are inhospitable, and with the Dragon War over the region is still unstable, Ramm Clans still wage war on the Renmants of the Dragons that are still on open war, many communities are caught in the middle of this battle, communities that have no allegiance or wish to remain neutral, they are often forced to pick a side and when they refuse they are often attacked so they cannot support other faction, such was the fate of Vivian's town attacked by both the Ramms and the Rebel Dragons their only line of defense was the dragon known as Vidar Skyrazor a talented commander from noble blood living his final days with his family at peace, he was now forced to battle to defend his community but the the dragon was old and exhausted, and after many and many battles he was forced into a bed, unable to fight to defend his community Vidar feared that the town will be finally destroyed or forced into servitude, he feared what would happen to his family, specially his daughter Vivian, she was always fascinated by his tales of old wars and his impressive deeds what worried him the most was the fact she wanted to help him fight, she saw her train almost everyday and read his old books about Dragon Warfare, he dis-encouraged her by telling her she was too "Softscaled" that she could get hurt easily because of that "Then I'll never get hurt cause they wont even touch me" she always said and continued with her efforts "your breath its not powerful enough, you wont be able to hurt the really tough enemies" he said "Then I'll use it more than once if one hit is not enough I'll go for two or three" she replied and continued her efforts.

The day finally arrived Vidar was expecting some Rebel Dragons to arrive at any moment he could barely hold himself upright and his breathing was erratic, he had teh hope that the mere presence and his reputation would persuade the attacker form doing anything and back off, but the Rebels and the Ramms were getting bolder and bolder on each attempt and he knew he was in no shape for battle, hours passed nobody arrived maybe the Rebels moved on other town then Vidar saw it a figure entering the town it was Vivian she was panting exhausted and covered in blood Vidar dashed towards his daughter frantically he checked her looking around for wounds "I'm fine dad, I told you they wouldn't be able to put a claw on me I'm fast, I went for their wings like your books says, keep'em on the ground and stay on the air, but you were right my breath was not strong enough, couldn't take them out in one shot like you would do, they all ran away I'm sorry I guess I'm not a great fighter like you" she said between pants and with teary eyes. Vidar was both amazed and relieved as the young dragoness collapsed from exhaustion on his arms.

Vivian feats and reputation only grew from that day on the Daughter of Skyrazor, the Softscaled Beast were some of the many names that Tavern Bards gave her but she preferred Softscaled Vivian, she sued her reputation to help relocate her town down on south on more peaceful lands she joined a Dragon Guild a serves on it to this day her father Vidar was finally able to live his old days at peace on the south.

"Listen up lizards, you know the situation in the Wolfen Nation, so that means we are hiring, the job is simple just escort and guard duty, do it right and you can get some nice coin and also a good commendation on those guild cards of yours, so who is up for the job!?" said the Wolfen in a rude tone, the dragons of the guild glanced at him but then continued doing their business, Vivian stood up and approached wolfen "So only guard duty and escorting, seems easy enough I'm in" she said as she was about to pick the contract from the Wolfen hands but he immediately moved the paper away "Look girl, I'm not expert on you lizards but even I can tell a dragon from a whelp, when we need someone to serve up drinks or to clean up the barracks we let you know" said the wolfen as he inspected Vivian "Awww, I guess this work is too much for me" Vivian said, with a disillusioned look on her face she went back to her chair. another figure entered the guild it was hooded anyone on the room could tell the room temperature dropped a bit "No luck with volunteers I guess" said the figure as it walked near the tables the talons on her feet told she was a harpy, her face concealed by the hood and an iron mask, only her two glowing blue eyes visible "Not surprised, after all not many skilled individuals here, so these are the so called dragons, I heard the tales of the mighty dragons back at Rizkus, but I guess they were exaggerated" said the harpy in a mocking tone she stopped right next to Vivian and took a glance at her "Or maybe not as exaggerated as I though, huh?" said the harpy to Vivian "I wouldn't know, people always tell me my scales are too soft and that I'm not strong enough" the dragoness replied with a honest smile "So true right?, just like harpies all beauty and no skills hard to deny such cold straight facts" the harpy replied laughing slightly as she left the guild the wolfens left right behind her "By Dran Vivian you know who you replied back to there?" said one of the dragons in a nearby table "She Looked like a harpy, well it was hard to see her face with the mask and hood and all that, oh wait was she like some sort of important harpy did I scare a customer?" said Vivian as if she just did something rude, the other dragon juts shook his head in disbelief.
