Description Just about sneaked in a wee drawing there before this year is out (Technically still 2018 here in Ireland)

My goodness, Nuria...long overdue ref, updated design! Now looks more....firey. Just keeping the refs simple, gonna do Shard next!
Happy New Year folks and have a good night!

                           

Theme: youtu.be/6g-njLQAiuI Ivan Torrent - Moonriser.
Voice: Nadine from Uncharted youtu.be/bxQijDNRKhQ I think her voice is perfect for her!

 Bio - Born into a rich family in Southern province of Skarguard, the Fire Capital Realm. Nuria grew up in a comfortable lifestyle, had a fortunate childhood, well educated at school and trained well in some of the best fire academies in Skarguard. Whilst her parents taught her to be kind and giving in life her high class life has unfortunately lead her to become Proud, cocky and often narcissistic around her friends and strangers.

Tends to get a bit selfish at times, often boasts about how great of an element Fire is, especially around Shard. Has a passion of jewellery, exploration, meditation, hunting. Bit of a flirt with males.
Despite her seamless pompous personality she is far from evil and loves her friends very much, would never hurt them or anyone without reason and often the mother figure of the group as she is the eldest of the crowd. Despises other dragons that use fire solely for destruction and power.


 Appearance - Pretty dragoness with bright red scales, black/yellow wings. Body is long and slender, above average fire dragoness height. Natural dark red eyeshadow around eyes, three bright blue diamond shapes under her eyes. Amber claws and a fire shaped tail blade with a natural glow that changes brightness depending on her mood, a common feature on most fire girls. Black chest plated and head frills. Scales are smooth. Yellow eyes with bright orange iris and slit pupil. Enjoys wearing expensive, shiny rings, necklaces and bracelets, rarely seen without them.


 Elemental Abilities - Basic fire stream is the norm for all fire dragons, those that train well can concentrate their breath into a fireball that explodes on impact, Nuria is one such girl that learned this ability and has explosive fireballs as secondary attack. Scales are immune to extreme temperatures and can technically swim in molten rock for a lengthy time.

Stream can change colour depending on her breath usage and anger. Fire dragons can be quick tempered and full rage will give her fire stream a white hot glow whilst her flame will be cooler and red in colour when she's in a much weaker/calmer state. Can explode with a fire fury which can damage her if she's not careful. She can control the temperatures of fire and even snuff them out but takes intense concentration.


Enjoy PLEASE DO NOT USE WITHOUT PERMISSION,THANK YOU

Probably my favorite of your gurlies tbh . I really like her design ,  the black and red really operate beautifully together  .  You did a really good job of invoking both the beauty and personality you ascribed to her in this piece, her body language really conveys the pompous seductress you paint her as in your description.

Thank you for the watch and support, means the world to me

No pressure or anything  , but I you wouldn't receive any complains from me if that changed some day . 

In all seriousness though, your welcome. 

Keep up the good work.

Well, hello there! I see we have characters that share names (see Nuria on my page) and that's rather rare for this name.

Vastly different storylines, color schemes, and designs, but that's okay.

I like the bio, and suspect that you have a lot more backstory to her than what's listed here.
She's cool.

Tank-Dragon In reply to LapisDragoness [2019-05-01 19:34:35 +0000 UTC]

Tis another Nuria! Who sent you! >:c

Haha Thank you buddy! yea i'm kinda refreshing all my characters this year, appreciate it

LapisDragoness In reply to Tank-Dragon [2019-05-01 20:01:39 +0000 UTC]

Aye, 'tis me.
I've had this dragon in my head since 2001, though I only recently found you on Google. So, I guess you can say Google sent me.

I totally understand the 'refreshing characters' process. I've been fleshing out and rewriting parts of her backstory on and off for the last several months.
*eyes Nuria's 36 page character sheet and 7 other associated documents* ...

Thanks for the fave's and the watch. Can't say my profile's very active as I'm not much of an artist.
Still, I'll be releasing Nuria's character sheet as soon as I feel it's ready for public debut so if you're interested in knowing my Nuria's backstory, I'll keep ya posted.

Of course, it'd be interested to learn of your character's history as well. The bio is good buuut... my mind is curious.

I chose Nuria because it is an Arabian word for Fire

I adopted her in 2015 from a friend and this is her biggest change yet.

You're welcome lol gotta start somewhere

HolyCross9 [2019-01-12 17:32:42 +0000 UTC]

She's certainly a beautiful dragoness. Does Nuria have a male love interest? Like someone she's known very closely since childhood?

Tank-Dragon In reply to HolyCross9 [2019-01-14 23:38:00 +0000 UTC]

Thank you!

She doesn't no but she likes to flirt around with the fellas...particularly when she wants something lol

HolyCross9 In reply to Tank-Dragon [2019-01-15 17:52:54 +0000 UTC]

Alright. You know, Nuria would also be protective mother if she ever chose to have offspring. That's a compliment by the way.

Love this new update, not only in her awesome design and nice color palette, which I think they're even better now, but also your own drawing skills. Awesome ref!!

Decided for a full fire looking design, bright heat related colours
Thank you!

This has inspired me to try draw dragons again because the colors and detail seem amazing to my un-skillful eyes (Meaning I can't really draw)

Tank-Dragon In reply to ElenaTheQuestionier [2019-01-02 19:26:10 +0000 UTC]
