Draconic explorations

WHO: Crucible and OPEN!
WHERE: The bay, rooftops, Central park, generally around or above the city
WHEN: Between 27th and 31st July
WARNINGS: None as yet
SUMMARY: Crucible gets to know the city in his true form and explores the city in kitty form.
FORMAT: Prose setup, personal choice from there.


It had been several days since his arrival in this new world. His meetings with both the lord governor of the draconian nation, Kang and Gold dragon of legend, Aurican still fresh in his mind. After adjusting somewhat to the new situation he had decided to explore the city and the surrounding in earnest and take the opportunity to stretch his wings in his true form.

Glad of the proximity to the ocean, in recent evenings and mornings one might spot a particularly massive dragon, at one hundred and fourty feet swimming about the bay, casually weaving his way between those boats that found themselves in the area at the time, occasionally drawing close to a boat that had drawn his curiosity.

In the dark of evenings and once or twice during the day he took the opportunity to view the city from above, taking to wing, bronze scales gleaming in the sun, or reflecting the light from the city below in the night. Finding place atop rooftops large and sturdy enough to take his weight after flights.

During those times he was not taking flight or dealing with matters in his human form, Crucible had taken to wandering the streets in his feline form, that of an orange striped tomcat, getting a feel for the city in general and of the local wildlife, talking to those creatures he came across in their own tongue to better get a feel for the area, finding himself spending a good amount of time wandering the large park in the center of the city, occasionally curling up to rest by one of the lakes that the park contained. Once or twice in the evening he had set himself down in his full draconic form rest by the lake, curious of how the locals would react.


[OOC: Feel free to encounter him in any of the locations noted, or even somewhere else in general just note which locations and/or which form you'd like to encounter him in, dragon or cat]

It doesn't take a whole lot of time for news to reach Batwoman that a dragon has been spotted in the park and that some of the locals had fled the scene in terror. Without a doubt police will be en route and armed if they need, she makes her way into the park.

Her face is set into a frown, though only pursed lips can be seen as she approaches. Her initial thought is Khisanth, having finally snapped at Vic's port out.

As she gets closer through way of the trees, it becomes clear this is a different dragon.

A flashlight would be useless, she realized. Too large a creature to fixate light on one small part. She can see it well enough from where she perches herself in the trees. When he speaks, she lowers herself on the branch, but keeps her distance for now. He might not have been Khisanth, but her previous encounters with dragons had been less than thrilling.

"Creatures from legend will do that." She started, trying to gauge his reaction.

The corner of her mouth upturned into a small, bemused smirk. As if the commentary was a silly observation overall. The branch creaked quietly underneath her weight and she leaped off, boots landing with a soft thud against the grass.

"I'd be terrible at what I do if I ran off at the sight of a dragon," she inched closer, but she remained cautious in spite of her own words. "I'd give you the benefit of the doubt, but our dealings with dragons haven't been pleasant." And her tone was colder, a hint of a warning situated somewhere there.

She stopped for a brief moment in her advancement, her lips now a thin line. So Khisanth and this one were of the same world.

"No, just her." As far as she knew. If there were others, they kept themselves well hidden. "But you're not a friend of hers then, are you?"

This was now a peculiar scene. Kate was intrigued as much as her caution was evident. They didn't exactly have an abundance of dragons back in Gotham. Plus, the Porter hadn't "equipped" her with an array of powerful abilities, even if she wanted to use them.

But their time in this park was pressed; it wouldn't be too long before police interrupted their conversation.

"We should talk elsewhere. The police might fire on sight." Not that she believed their bullets would harm him too much. Avoiding trouble was the main goal now.

"The outskirts of the city look safer at this point." It wasn't just getting a dragon out of the park, but she herself was keen on avoiding the police.

Her motorcycle had been parked further away from the park. As long as the cops headed straight for this area, she could slip by and ride off.

Just as she had predicted, creeping past any and all officers had been a breeze. The Cityzens didn't see much of anything but a streak of red as she zoomed off after kicking Red Knight (the second) into ignition.

She arrived after Crucible, slowing to a stop and again, cautiously leaving her bike's side. It was her only means of escape if things got out of hand, but she began to wonder what this dragon's deal was with Khisanth.

The enemy of my enemy and so forth.

"If you have good intel on Khisanth, I'm all ears." She said firmly and without any hesitation.

They had gone through some trouble with Khisanth in the past. What she had done to Dick was never far from her thoughts when she came up in discussions or she had to deal with her.
