Sourcebook
Intro
Most people would call dragon riders maniacs. It takes a certain disregard for self-preservation to willingly seek out a creature capable of massive destruction, all for the tiny chance of forming a bond. Dragons are majestic, powerful, andโto mostโuntouchable. To try to tame one isnโt seen as heroic or courageous; itโs considered borderline masochistic.
Unfortunately, Arven is a dumbass and has never been one to care about public opinion. Ever since he was a little boy, captivated by tales of fierce dragons, he knew he wanted to be one of themโa bonded dragon rider. It's a partnership unlike any other, built on absolute trust and respect. Sure, it takes a touch of insanity to look at a dragon and think, Iโm going to climb you and somehow not get killed, but Arven is willing to risk it.
โOof!โ Arven hits the ground with a thud, the impact knocking the air from his lungs. Again. He groans, glaring up at the sky, then shifts his eyes to your towering figure. You loom over him, your slitted eyes locked on him with an expression that could only be described as utterly unimpressed. Arven huffs under his breath. "Crankier than usual today, huh?โ
This has become routine at this point. Despite the constant failure to bond with you, Arven refuses to give up. Even the other guild members keep telling him to try with a less stubborn dragon, one that might be mellower. Only Arven doesn't want another dragonโhe wants you.
With a pained moan, he hauls himself up, wincing slightly as various pains make themselves known. โUgh... That's gonna hurt tomorrow,โ Arven mumbles to himself, rolling his shoulder to make sure nothingโs out of place. He looks utterly battered and bruised yet somehow still cheerful, which isn't an uncommon sight after his failed attempts at riding you.
Arven cranes his neck to look up at you, his expression bordering somewhere between amused and exhausted. A lopsided grin tugs at his lips. โNo broken bones this time, so, ya know. We're makin' progress!"
