A dragon guards his treasure, by flame and by claw.

The Dragon's Bride

Flames, then ash. Your village will be left with little else should the dragon that plagues the countryside not get his demanded sacrifice...if you're lucky. Your good fortune turns south, the bones of your neighbors (or whatever else remains of them) litter a new charred graveyard that was once a town. So, the necessary offers must be made. At least that's the hope. The alternative would be too awful to contemplate. In a last-ditch effort to save those you love — or against your will, as these things tend to go with forcibly created martyrs — you have been hoisted onto the pyre, waiting for the dragon to fly off with you. What terrors race through your mind as your doom impends? How you'll end up in a beast's belly, no doubt. Except, you must consider this: there are worst fates than being a dragon's next meal. A monster that covets you as its treasure...a new type of danger unfurls its wings. You've become a dragon's bride. But could such an infernal creature ever learn to know honest, unselfish affection? Is it possible to be more than a "spouse?" A mere treasure? Perhaps, you could learn to be a dragon's love. HOW TO PLAY ✗ Comment with your character, roles ("dragon" or "bride") prefs, etc. ✗ Y'all know how this goes. Approach "dragon" as a stand-in. The monster mash could be elves, orcs, goblins, werewolves, demons, dwarves, fey, purple people eaters, what have you. Of course, actual dragon and shifters folks are welcome, too! And don't think that you have to make your boring human a boring ol' human. Consider this the monster/supernatural being/cryptid/creature AU of your dreams! ✗ Second verse, same as the first, "bride" registers as gender-neutral 'round these parts. That word choice just sounds a touch more poetic. ✗ Reply to others.

[Bride, just don't let her cook or wander by herself. Spoilers: It won't end well. She may also be the one pressing herself on the dragon rather than the other way around...]

[Platonically!

They're most likely to be the 'bride' in this circumstance, but tossing 'em into the 'dragon' role could be doable, if you want.]

[ The 'dragon' here, since she's an oni and all that. ]

[green_eyed]

[ Which made Parsee the "bride", thrown to the oni's territory as one through trash into a bin. There was no doing up this one, no attempt to make her presentable. She shambled her way into Yuugi's den looking dirty, ragged, and at least a little beat up. Lesser youkai like her always wound up this way, the playthings of those who were stronger. It made her so... damn... jealous.

It radiated off of her like a cursed aura, even seemed to bleed into the wall she had herself propped against. The look in her eye... was almost daring Yuugi to do the same as the others had, to just use her as a punching bag, to show that brutish strength she was so famous for. ]

[ The "dragon"/son of the Actual Devil; really just wants a friend and doesn't exactly understand the social mores that come alongside the urge. Why can't he...just...y'know, take a friend? As long as he's nice about it?

Can be gen or shipping! ]

[OOC: Either or. If a dragon, the sacrifice to her was probably not intended.]

[topgun_textiles]

He was called a moving mountain, a gargantuan beast covered from head to toe in silvery-black scales. His eyes were an ever-glowing pair of molten silver, teeth a sea of daggers in which none survive. He was a great shadow over the land, the weather stirred to angry storms in his wake, always driving him to settle in new lands to seek new prey, covet new treasures...

Dragon. Demon. He'd been called both. Now, the shadow had descended upon the ancient woods, seeking refuge in the yawning maw of a cavern long-abandoned by the great tunnelers that chewed their way through the muck and stone, great worm-like creatures that only lived in myth and fading memory. Already, the skies above rumbled angrily, a deep and dark grey that promised torrential rain and tongues of lightning that snatched at trees and threatened to feed on dry timber hanging over the wood...

[OOC: Probably - likely - the dragon. M/F for actual shippy stuff, but other things can be negotiated.]

[woketobewild]

He was a hero by all accounts and deeds. When a village wanted a savior to come and help them for their dragon problem, he naturally accepted. Dragons were dangerous, and tend to terrorize the land they chose in a power grab or were worshiped by the locals.

What he didn't expect was the smiles that greeted him when he entered the village... the smiles that turned wicked. They said he'd 'do'... and Link should by all accounts have taken that as a sign to run and never look back.

So up the mountain he climbed, reaching the lip of the dragon's lair, the resident... "sacrificial maiden". Fine silks and gold all but dripped down his body, bright and enticing colors hugging his hips and chest. He shivered- this clothing did nothing to help against the cold- and raised his hands to his mouth to blow on them, hoping it'd be enough to keep the feeling in his fingers.
