The Temple of Inari 57: Life goes on

[Fenric]

Sanctuary

Steven starts to stretch... it's just that he doesn't quite stop where a reasonable person might. He gets longer but without the accompanying thinning one would expect. And it isn't just his body! His face stretches out as well, and even his teeth! This isn't going to go great things for his robes, I'm afraid. Then his head and neck look indistinct for a moment before becoming first two, then three!

When it finally stops, Steven will come in somewhat under fifteen feet long total from nose to tail, roughly evenly split between head/neck, body, and tail. His body is very nicely proportioned with girth compared to length making the golden ratio (roughly 9 feet in girth - about 3 feet across). His neck is thinner than his body, but not wiry with a tail that tapers elegantly from the full width of his body to very nearly a point. His scales are shiny and darkest black, making him fairly reflective. No wings, but he has all the usual fringes, horns, whiskers, and feathery bits that a proper eastern type dragon always has, all in a graduated deep purple color that fades to silvery at the edges. His snout is fairly long and tapered, and filled with many long, needle-sharp teeth all of the same size in the manner of a number of aquatic dinosaurs.

In short, Steven can now take the form of a three-headed Greater Inland Sea Dragon.

Yumiko sighs: it would seem Keiko had been right all along, but Keiko claps in glee

Oh, yes! Very nice! Three heads is fun! Now beware: you breathe disintegration!
