Procyon is a jeweler, born and raised in a bloodline of skillful jewelrers who have been perfecting the crafts for generations. Along with these generations, a pendant was passed on. It was actually a dragon pendant, but nobody knew about it until Procyon one day discovered its magical properties.
Even though it'd be more useful for someone who could actually fight, he kept it in the name of his bloodline and tradition. After some time of experimenting with this dragon form, he decided to start training his battle skills at age 23 because he felt bad for wasting this potential. Currently he's 38 and fairly skillful in hand-to-hand and knife combat.
In person, he's a perfectionist who appears arrogant at first glance but if you actually care to get to know him, he never disrespects or puts anyone down. His ego is so big that it can be a bit hard to believe that he doesn't think lower of other people around him, and he's also quite the optimist. His perfectionism can, however, easily discourage him from trying something new because failure is one of his worst fears, but what bothers him the most is letting things go to waste which has the potential to push him past his fears, as was the case with the dragon pendant.
It is hard to get on his bad side since he has some huge respect for pretty much everyone, but when you do it's hard to get out. He'll behave in a toxic, passive-aggressive manner, avoid interaction at any cost and overall be pretty clear to the fact that he dislikes someone. It can be hard to find out why, though, as he will rarely tell right out and you'll either have to play detective or straight up ask him and even that might not work if he thinks you won't be able to compensate.
One of the easiest ways to get on his bad side is to criticise him for seemingly no reason, poke fun at the art of jewelry, overall rude and disrespectful behavior and the crowning king of them all; stealing. If you steal something from Procyon, he'll never trust you with anything ever again, even if you give back the stolen item and compensate with more stuff, gold, apologies etc. No matter what you do, his trust will be permanently gone, even if he has stopped being angry with you, which is unlikely he'll be because he holds a grudge like a raven.
He is very keen when it comes to design, decor and overall art, both visually and when it comes to magic. He has good metal ví (basically magic, I'll go into this concept further later when I get the time to. Pretty much he can slightly metalbend) which obviously helps him with his jewelry crafting.

His dragon form is incredibly mobile both on land and in the air thanks to the physique and bodily built that's similar to that of a pterosaur. He can run in full gallop without his wings coming too much in the way and has very high air agility. One downside though is that he needs a large, open plain to take off as it's a challenge for him, again thanks to his build. He can't just take off from a standing position on the ground and ideally needs either a large cliff or a powerful wind to catch air under his wings.

He has a powerful energy blast as his "breath" or "distance" attack, not fire but rather something resembling a light ray that scorches and burns through almost anything it touches (thick metal or magic shields are exceptions. If he can't burn through it, it'll heat up and cook or whatever instead). The attack is limited to stamina and doesn't have a set power, Procyon can control its intensity and will often remain very breathless and weak after a particularly strong or concentrated blast. A very weak blast can be useful to heat people who are freezing or have hypothermia. His body temperature will also drastically rise (up to 80 degrees C) if he uses his blast attack a lot and it can reach a point to where he needs to await cooldown before turning back into his regular form or else the immense temperature would simply kill him.

I love the dual-colored iridescence! It makes Procyon have a special glow to his scales!

"His perfectionism can, however, easily discourage him from trying something new because failure is one of his worst fears" Relatable.
