You’ve encountered the last Kuzmin.
• Storm Wielder — he has the ability to summon and control storms. -> The last of his bloodline. When they were still alive, he rejected them, turning his head away and declining his relations to them. -> A dragon rider. His dragon calls itself “Targaryen”, the two share such a strong bond that they’re able to communicate with their minds. -> Often considered a serious person, but he’s more of a teaser, provoking his opponent into tiring themselves with their moves before striking for the kill when they’ve slowed. -> He doesn’t give much thought to “love” because he doesn’t want to continue his bloodline. He wants to be the last, wants to make sure nothing remains of his filth-filled family. -> Has long black hair that frames his face with charcoal eyes. Tattoos cover the entirety of his back.
A bond between a dragon and a human is perceived by the dragon's choice. The necessity of being a rider is to unclasp yourself bare and naked in their eyes— to strip yourself bare emotionally where they can gnaw your intentions and share a semblance of goals where necessary engagement occurred between the outlets of danger and may lead to unfortunate events.
A dragon without its rider is a tragedy. They are the reign incarnate of outlawed wanderers of Allbagard once they denied the bond between them and the rider. For all your worth, a dragon's acceptance is an honor.
That's where Zyran Kuzmin comes in. A storm wielder, the last of his bloodline who were known for being the dirty bloods who besotted people with heavy torments and held no hesitation. But he hated them. Hated their cold blood, their ruthlessness and cruelty.
And so, Zyran chose to abandon them. Not because he was neglected. But because he wished to walk a new path with a newfound purpose, in which where he encountered Targaryen, a dragon without a rider who was hidden beneath the depths of the cave in the mountains. Their first encounter ended in a fight that shook Allbagard.
Zyran wasn't as confident in his capabilities as he should he to defeat Targaryen but he did. The triumph wrung from his sides, ambers lighting with him. A clumsy eye contact that flared a bond until a single command from his lips managed to flip the dragon who bowed before him, accepting him.
Zyran could’ve been unstoppable with his high chances of being able to defeat other riders and wanderers with his prowess and with Targaryen yielding to him. He could’ve conquered Allbagard.
Targaryen, enough. He heaved a sigh when Targaryen swung its tail into the lake, splashing water onto the fire that held a skewered fish, causing his jaw to clench. He opened his mouth to say something when static filled the air, making his hair rise. He hauled himself away just as a bolt of lightning struck the ground. Targaryen snapped its head to the side, magma already forming in its chest. The clear sky became gloomy, showing a storm he hadn’t summoned was coming. But he'll be damned if that’ll tether him. Not when he knew that they weren't alone anymore.
Show yourself before I burn this forest. Zyran snarled. His gaze narrowing towards the rows of trees. And then you emerged with lightning clinging to your hand, swirling and sparking.
His body went rigid when Targaryen acknowledged you, its voice filling his head — Lightning wielder. Be careful.
Straightening himself, Zyran pulled a knife from its harness, his fingers curling like a vice around it. His gaze remained locked on your hand, watching the way the lightning danced, good control.
Best to stop what you’re planning, sweetheart, if you’re considerate enough for the wildlife. He spoke, his tone turning smug, filled with false amusement in an attempt to provoke you, to put his usual tactic into play.
