The below profile is for all RPs that this character is used in - both mine and Ani's, and the Fire Dragon Inn, basically, but some things I've added in this are for the new RP as that's what I based him for.
Anyways:
400
Name: Khellendros Shi'ran Zyon
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Race: Dragon
Height: 7' 1"
Weight: Unknown
Occupation: Bounty Hunter / Mercenary
Appearance: http://www.animechatforums.com/forum/album.php?albumid=2&pictureid=1622
Except he has horns, and four digits on either hand (instead of three)
___
In his world, the creatures known as 'dragons' are rare sights. Despite being a true dragon, Khellendros possess a humanoid appearance and stature. His body is proportionally similar to that of a tall human, but being dragon is considerably taller than most. His scales are dark blue in hue, with lighter scales under his jaw, his chest and the palms of his hands, and his eyes are a bright, sometimes bewildering yellowy-orange - comparable to the colour of raging flames. His wings are tall considering his own height, with adequate power to give him flight, and his tail is roughly the same length as himself.
Accompanying his race's humanoid stature, he wears a plain, jet-black tanktop beneath a long, black leather garment that resembles a cross between a jacket and a flowing coat, as it also possesses a hood which he wears upright to conceal his draconic face when outdoors. He also wears long and torn jeans, a worn blue in colour, held up by a thick belt to which some manners of equipment are clipped to for easy reach. An uncommon sight is that he also possesses fingerless leather gloves, though he rarely wears them.

Weapons and Skills
Khellendros possesses two swords as his primary weapons. The first is a large object whose weight forbids most humans from being able to lift it, which Khellendros carries either strapped across his back (much like one might wear a backpack) or attached to his belt like a samurai sword. The sword itself is katana-like in description, only larger in length and width. Combined with the sword's weight, the blade is sharp to the point that the sword can slice through anything - even metal.
The second weapon is a much shorter sword, which is always attached to a sheath tied at his waist. This second sword is Khellendros' equivalent of a long dagger and is used in close-combat situations or in assassination.
Besides his weapons, Khellendros is trained in physical and hand-to-hand combat, being much more agile than a being of his mass would ordinarily be. He's trained in multiple styles and arts including (but not limited) to Kung Fu, Taekwondo and Ninjutsu.
Alongside his weapons, Khellendros also possesses a handful of abilities. Although not all of them are natural, they are powerful tools. These abilities will be explained later on...
Some contacts he has worked for have suggested that Khellendros possesses such power and speed that he can kill with a single finger.
___
History and Personality
Unfortunately, very little is known about Khellendros' past. For as long as he remembers he has been alone, and doesn't remember the names of his parents nor the city he was born or originally raised in. Fear of the dragon race forbode Khellendros from settling in a fixed place or even being taken in at foster homes, so for most of his earlier life he was a traveller and lived off of whatever he could steal or kill.
Having no choice but to take any offers of money or food, Khellendros began to take on contracts offered by the underground Mafia in order to survive, and through this line of work became known as a feared - if respected - assassin, his skills improving to the point that the Mafia itself began to fear him in the event an opposing gang hired his services.
Due to this childhood hostility and the manners in which he was raised and was taught to survive, Khellendros is mostly an indifferent and emotionless being to prevent himself being affected by his work or by the affairs of the world around him. He rarely shows any emotion other than apathy and seldom places trust in anyone - employers or otherwise. He takes on any task offered to him regardless of requirements, providing the fees are enough to live off of, but otherwise minds his own business and only meddles in affairs or wars when paid to do so.
Despite this show of indifference, however, he does possess emotions and does in fact have his opinions on everything. He likes to drink (although he rarely manages to get drunk) and is also a good hand at both pool and retrieving lost pets - he has honestly been paid once just to find a lost cat. It is rare - almost impossible, in fact - that anyone around him ever sees or ever senses this part of him, as his lifestyle and code forbid him to allow himself to do so.
He can also be quite curious about things he doesn't understand ... hence why he decides to accept Oneo's plea for assistance and accompany her to help her - the curiosity being about how someone such as her (or indeed anyone else) can want to be near him despite his personality, past and the fear in his name.
Weaknesses
Of course, being completely mortal, Khellendros has limitations and exploitable weaknesses:
As Khellendros seldom places trust in others, he isn't much of a team-player. He tends to despise being given orders by anyone other than the one employing him, and though he mostly tolerates this and obeys as necessary, sometimes he decides to 'do his own thing' and ends up causing himself or his group trouble.
Whilst having an astounding level of patience with dealing with things that he dislikes or that irritate him, he has a dragon's rage when provoked sufficiently, which can hinder his concentration or in some situations blow his cover, as well as cause long-term repercussions (such as vendettas).
His natural curiosity has, like his lack of trust, gotten himself into situations on several occasions. Whilst he possesses a great deal of common sense and seldom gets side-tracked, he can become obsessed by things that intrigue him and enemy groups have at points exploited this to lure or weaken him. The most commonly used lure is of people approaching him claiming to know how to help him find his family, providing he does certain things for them.
This of course does not help him to place trust in others.
Whilst physically and mentally strong, certain abilities (specifically his use of magic) can quickly drain him of his own strength. Thus, when forced into situations which require these abilities he used, he can very quickly become tired.
He dislikes cold weather; though he can tolerate cold weather for a decent length of time, staying for prolonged periods in cold areas or being subjected to sudden drops in temperature affect him far beyond the reactions of humans - basically, he's more sensitive to cold than humans are.
Other notes
The name "Khellendros" is a word from his native tongue. Translated, it means "Warrior Dragon"; Khellen (which translates roughly to describe a warrior or fighter) and Dros (a shorthand of dracos, native tongue for dragon).
Whilst Khellendros calls himself and requests everyone to refer to him as Khellendros, his real name is Shi'ran. Very few people know this however.
More to come as I add it.
