I guess I have to put e f f o r t and t i m e into a description this time now huh?____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Pyrodragon, or 'Pyrodrgn' for short by saving you a WHOLE TWO LETTERS, known to some as 'Pybodrng' due to comical typos from an old friend, is pretty much what one expects. It is based off of the TF2's Pyro, but with some obvious changes. In the same sense, it is also just what one assumes. It knows what fire does to people, and uses it rather effectively.
Nobody on RED really knows where it came from.
Pyrodrgn comes with any number of the Pyro class weaponry, be it reskin or Strange or Unusual. It tends to favor the Festives, for reasons it only knows. Maybe it likes the pretty lights, or maybe it finds the bow cute. Mystery.
Despite what my Gallery and Scraps seems to imply, Pyrodrgn is neither gender, in the sense you cannot tell what it is. The various images of it with hermaphrodite parts or breasts or a cameltoe or a dick bulge is simply the intent of the image, and not what it normally looks like. If you grab where genitals should be, one is met with nothing other than grabbing the suit.
The creature is the suit, if that explains it. There is no 'inside' of the suit. If one is to cut off an arm, it will not bleed, and you will be met with suit material all on the stump. Curiously, any wound that is small and penetrates, will leave a single small splatter of a darker red substance (more than likely blood) but will have no visible injury. Much like the classes do in TF2, in the regards to small wounds.
Pyrodrgn is one of a sluggish, slow demeanor. Not to say it isn't intelligent, the creature demonstrates basic social skills and can act independently, however has a trigger state which we will come back to.
The creature finds it hard to get along with others, be it the same class or others, and prefers to defend and haunt less traffic-heavy areas. TF2's intel halls, a locked point behind an active one (it will defend the point after the one that can be captured), and move away quietly if disturbed by a gathering of it's own team, or heavy combat. The creature does know how to operate technological devices, but seems to have either delayed reactions or just a slow movement to it.
But like Pyro, Pyrodragon is quite capable if set off. If someone were to step to it's territory, it becomes suspect of them, even the same team and even if they are proven to not be Spies. It prefers it's matters to be left unharmed, but can become angry rather quickly if something or someone sets it off. You try to backstab it and fail, it will strike you down with ferocity. The most heavy example would be taking the Intel. It will not stop until you drop it and flee. Pyrodragon is very defensive, but becomes angry if you tamper with what it chooses to be involved with.
Like any Pyro, it cannot reflect bullets, but in this 'combat mode' it displays quick thinking, improvisation, unflinching resolve and determination to rival the most dedicated of soldiers. Through flames or through shotguns and axes, it will not be stopped by respawn, it will find you no matter what. Once a situation has been resolved, the beast returns to the dormant, sluggish state of motion...and then return to it's chosen residence. Nonetheless it is a dutiful creature, acting when the situation demands. Say a Medic is being chased by a Scout and it happens to be nearby? Pyrodragon will stop to assist with fire or airblasts, or even taking a hit for the Medic.
Pyrodragon seems to be biologically independent, as it is never seen eating, sleeping, or using the lavatory. It is still, however, able to 'use' a Sandvich or other deployable foodstuffs in some mysterious fashion. It never blinks, either. It CAN in a way, but does not need to actively do so.
The 'mask' on it, and the hair, are quite real. That is it's face. If you took it off, which you cannot, it would be like tearing the front of your face right off. The hair grows bck to that size slowly like real hair if it is cut, and seems to be fire proof much like the rest of it.
If you didn't figure this out, the main drive behind the character is that you cannot tell what it is under the 'suit'. The creature could be a robot, a fish in a mech, a very weird Pyro, you just don't know. But those dragon parts are quite real.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Artistic liberty:
Pyrodragon has been drawn a lot over the months, and has been interpretated differently. This is 100% okay. I understand something about it may be hard to draw, or awkward to do. On the sheet, there are some examples. The gloves don't need to have fingertips. They can be claw-like, for instance. The boots may not be boots, they could be shaped more like dragonic feet. The eyes even, have been done in the typical style of eyes...or inverted, as seen above.
Expression is something I particularly enjoy in the character. Do not be afraid to make the 'mask' face expressive. Even with no lower jaw and not being able to speak, Pyrodragon can convey things, such as this image showing it frowning in annoyance. It can in fact close it's eyes, if it wanted to. Experiment!
The various 'accessories' such as the grenades and airtank vary;
- The grenades are optional, and can be removed or moved elsewhere if you wish
- The pouch on the 'belt' can be moved as well if preferred, but should stay on the lowest strap preferrably
- The airtank comes as standard, but is highly preferred, unless the image in question sorely affects an image in a negative way, it is assumed the tank is part of the creature, much like the tail or the hair
- The 'alternatives' are purely up to you, but any new alternative options that come up will not be included on the ref sheet above
Pyrodragon tends to hold it's most preferred weapon at all times, but is also purely artist choice and does not need to be included.
Pyrodrgn is a little chubbier, more pearish, than regular Pyros, if drawn genderless like above. If you want to throw gender-specific parts on it, go crazy. I'm no stranger to weird fetishes.

This is the sick twisted individual who should have put more effort into the above. Me, yes.

This iis again the awesome fellow who did this. Go give them a watch, they deserve it! They're super nice and were patient as heck despite a real chaotic schedule of work and babysitting. They actively take commissions!____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Fun Misc. Pyrodragon Facts - The Fun Is Not Promised wrote:• Pyrodragon has a rather modest collection of various cosmetics, some rare and some trash
• Pyrodragon smells vaguely of kerosene, but it is very faint
• Pyrodragon likes to draw with coal or chalk, but is not very good
• Pyrodragon is actually very physically fit, and does not seem to tire unless exerted for a considerable amount of time
• It has no age
• Nobody actually knows where it came from
• Unlike typical Pyro types, it does not stand with a slouch unless using it's weapons, and as such may look taller than others.
• Despite a zipper on the suit, the suit cannot be removed by any means, tugging that zipper would be like trying to pull a clump of hair out, somewhat by comparison. Except it won't come out.
• That hair is quite real, but flameproof.
• It has a skewed concept of reality, but isn't aware that what it does or how it acts is 'unusual'.
• It's fondness for fire is less 'open' than common Pyros, but it enjoys cooking things.
• It cannot write, at least not well
• 'Downtime' consists of sitting in a quiet spot for a while, to the thing
• It struggles to remember who it knows and who it is friends with a lot
• Pyrodragon does not see in 'Pyrovision' in the slightest, it's quite aware of whats going on. It would be more akin to someone who isn't fluent in English trying to speak it, to compare it to a spoken language.
• It has crippling loneliness issues, and will be glad to help you out if it just means you can stay a while. Even a BLU if it's a friendly, and they aren't trying anything dodgy.
I will probably come back to this to add or change more at some point.Probably not, I'm lazy
