Zeke is surprisingly easy to scare. All you have to do is jump out at him and his heart will probably stop for a good few seconds. Around the spooky season the younger dragons tend to be very careful around him for this reason.

Damon on the other hand gets a mask and leaves it in Zeke's window or other conspicuous place where it's sure to scare the living daylights out of him every chance he gets.

Rosco and Daphne

Daphne is an Artisan with a very..."experimental" art style. She specializes in abstract expressionism- using anything and everything as both subject and medium, from toys glued together into various shapes to make sculpture, to paint poured over a volunteer- nothing is safe from her artistic vision.

She goes through pains and lengths for her art- once she even smashed a clock she had specifically requested from Lindar in front of him- all because "his distress [was] a key component of the piece" she was making at the time.

She's very eccentric, down to the clothes she wears- think a slightly toned down lady gaga. Very kooky and bizarre.

She and Rosco met when she had came to BeastMaker's to find snail shells and samples of alligator hide for a new art piece- "Ode to a Swamp #29" -it was almost love at first sight.

They began meeting in "secret", for fear that their love wasn't approved of by their respective guilds- however everyone actually knew about it and didn't care. They weren't exactly very good at hiding it.

Eventually they finally admitted it to everyone (again, unnecessary- everyone already knew) and began publicly dating.

The hard part was getting Rosco's pet boar- Pecan- to let go of his jealousy and accept her. This was quickly amended when Daphne saved Rosco from an attack frog.

They eventually get married and have triplets that Rosco can never tell apart- Rusty, Marcel, and Raphael.

Rescued Eglentine

My first attempt at an Elder Lady Dragon for the Spyro Reignited Trilogy. I tried to make something inspired by the concept art while also trying to make it my own still. I hope you all like it.

Eglentine is a Beastmaker gal who likes to brew up her monsters in her trusty cauldron.

Beastmakers took ages because everything about it is impossible. Cartoon fire? Roots? Weird leafeless tress? Yes.

Meet The Muse:

Zeke is a good 2,578 years old, but don't let his age fool you! He's still as sharp as a gator tooth (most of the time), and won't hesitate to give you a good dose of slug slime remedy if you're in need of it (or not). One of the resident Beastmakers of Misty Bog, Zeke is responsible for breeding snails, slugs, and leeches for medicinal and food purposes, at times working closely with hatchlinghood friend Damon to create new healing potions and the like. Come on down to his hut and holler if you need anything, but please do mind the snails!

Zeke Headcanons

Breeds snails, slugs, leeches, etc., usually for medicinal purposes

Seriously he treats these things like his babies he cares for them so much. Has a name for each one.

Has serious back problems. Constantly rubbing or cracking out his back to ease some of the pain.

Only a little younger than Astor- which isn't saying much. He remembers the Forgotten Realms well, and still speaks wistfully of Spooky Swamp ("Though we didn't call it that," he says).

Has trouble flying-partially due to his back problems and partially because his wings are made more for swimming.

Excellent swimmer, usually spends most of his time in the water looking for leeches or food supply for his snails and slugs.

Knows everything there is to know about the different medical applications of slime, ground snail shells, leeches, etc. Literally do NOT ever develop so much as a cough around him he will be upon you with a bottle of some sort of slug goo before you can finish coughing.

Has a bit of a problem with boundaries- seriously doesn't understand personal space or that you can't just...start sticking leeches on people because your leeches are hungry and they look like they could use "a little healthy dose of blood letting".

The snails he has clinging to him are snails that just so happened to hitch a ride on him one day and he didn't bother removing them. Claimed "they looked too comfy".

Excellent sense of smell. Just look at that snout!

He's alot older than Bruno- which is probably why the Beastmaker leader gives him so much respect despite his slight kookiness- that and he's basically their medicine supplier.

Works closely with Damon- they're old friends who both went into BeastMaker medicine, though Zeke holds a slight, petty grudge against him because Damon almost went to be a MagicCrafter when they were young; won't stop bringing it up whenever they get into a slight spat.

Has something against MagicCrafters: thinks they're all snobby and stuck-up. Alot of his opinion could be attributed to the fact that his daughter went to be a MagicCrafter and married a particularly snotty one herself, who's constantly making snide comments about him being "a crazed old swamp bumpkin".
