Before I could even think about thinking status the dragon, my mother, brought her nose really, really close to me and smelled me. The air moved so much my hair started blowing around and getting in my face...
'If I'm a dragon why do I have hair?'
And that's when I realized I wasn't exactly a dragon. I was more human than dragon. I had human arms and legs, human fingers and toes, and a human shaped head (its not like I could actually see my head though). My ears were slightly pointed, and I did have two wings and a tail, but they were nothing compared to the dragon in front of me. In fact the only parts of me that were dragonish, were my skinny tail, and my tiny wings (they might have been foot long). Other than that, I looked like a normal human girl. There was a little bit of a scale pattern on the backs of my hands, and my feet, but it was still skin.
"I am glad you have awareness. Someday you may understand what I have been through just to shield you from our curse. You are more precious to me than my own life." Her voice was soft, but it carried throughout the entire cave with a slight echo.
"C-curse? Is that why I'm not like you?" I tried to sound like a naive little dragon/human, which was surprisingly easy because I kind of was naive, and definetly little compared to my mom.
"Many years ago a god cursed us for trying to destroy him. I resisted the full effects, but until you, every one of my children has been born feral. Nothing more than mindless monsters. I, used a different method with you." As she spoke, her form started to change. She started getting smaller, and by the time her transformation was done, she became human. "I used my human shape to form you, and... I will explain how dragons are born when you are older. Let me look at you."

She started looking me over, which didn't feel as wierd as I would have expected from a complete stranger. It felt like she was my mother, and I wasn't embarrassed at all to be naked in front of her. Even if her human form was wearing clothes. So while I was being examined I took the time to check my character info.
Name: N/A Titles: N/A Race: Dragon (Cursed) Resistances: Shadow 10, Fire 10, Physical 1. Alignment: Neutral Class: N/A Attributes: Shadow, Fire Skills: Natural Armor (Degraded), Dragon Breath (Degraded), Flight (Degraded), Fire Magic, Shadow Magic.
'Well that's less information than I expected. I wonder why some skills are degraded.'
Dragon (Cursed) As a dragon you gain the skills Natural Armor, Dragon Breath, and Flight. (Cursed) Your form is altered, and all dragon related skills are (Degraded). Natural Armor (Degraded) Gain 1 point of physical resistance per level. (Degraded) Maximum level is 1.

(Degraded) Maximum level is 1. Fire Magic You can use your mana to cast fire spells. Shadow Magic You can use your mana to cast shadow spells.
'So, I should get rid of the curse to become an awsome dragon. Oh, wait what's my Fortitude?'
Strength: 5 Agility: 4 Mental: 5 Fortitude: 10 Reflexes: 4 Willpower: 9 Dexterity: 8 Perception: 4 Awareness: 3
'Um, wow. That's a lot. I wonder if I'm going to have to figure this all out or if there's a tutorial.'
Before I could look at anything else there was a loud explosion, and my mother immedieately shifted back into her dragon form.
"Stay here, I will return." She flew up and then down through a hole in the floor.

I walked over to the hole. Well, I crawled for part of the way then when I trusted my balance, I walked on two legs until I got to the hole, where I crawled again. The hole was huge. You could fit my mother in it at least five times. The ground below the hole was also far away, so I wrapped my tail around some rocks that were nearby. Then I remembered I had a tail.
It wasn't like I actually forgot that I had a tail and wings, they just felt so natural that I didn't really notice them. It was like a dream where wierd things can happen but it all seems normal until you wake up. Except this dream felt real, and I could still remember that having a tail was wierd, and I could remember my real life.
'Heh, it is kinda real.'
After my brief moment of contemplation, I decided it didn't matter and while I was here, I was going to make the most of it. Also, I was going to avoid falling through the giant hole before I learned how to fly. It looked like the hole was in the bottom of some kind of overhang. On one side I could see a clift, and on the other it was just open space. I kind of made sense, because the area where I woke up was above the clift, so there was plenty of support for my mother's nest.
As I tried look at more of the outside world, I saw my mother light up the darkness with a beautiful purplish flame. The fire swept over trees, though it didn't seem to damage them, but there was a large looking creature that howled with pain. My mom didn't give it any time to recover and she used her wings to leap into the air and pounce on it. There was a brief moment of thrashing and then everything went still.
After a moment the area around where they were fighting got dark. It wasn't just low light, it was as if somethng had swallowed the light and left a hole to the abyss. It only lasted for a few seconds, but I felt like I was pulled in. It was all I could do to avoid falling off the edge. Then it was gone.
"Are you sure you want to be that close to the edge? It might be dificult for me to catch you." My mother had somehow gotten behind me.
"Oh, I don't want to fall. I was just trying to watch you." I gave her a sweet smile. At least I think it was sweet, I still had no idea what my face looked like.
"Well, I brought you dinner, so... You might need cooked meat. Here try this." She dropped a piece of meat on the floor in front of her, and then cooked it with her (not purple) flames.
I crawled away from the edge, my nose filled with the amazing smell of cooked meat. I was very impressed by the smell. It made me feel like I hadn't eaten for a week, and someone was having a barbeque. By the time I got to the meat I was almost running, and I didn't stop very well when i got to it. I tumbled over it, but still managed to get my hands on it, and as I was still rolling I took a bite. The juice got all over my face, hands, arms, chest, and my mothers hand/claw as she stopped me from rolling.
"You really should try to calm down. It is only feral earth dragon. They have such a bland taste."
