This is my Shanido ref-sheet 3.0

Well, due to school, procrastination, and of course laziness, it took a bit longer than expected to finish this...
And I still have to do his night ref!

Still, Shanido's awesomeness factor trumps out!

Now, for Shanido's Origin Story:
--------------------------------------------------------------

---Shanido's story starts about 16 years ago... But, in order to tell his story, you need to know about his mother, Moonbeam..........

After living happily in The Valley of Draco for almost 5 years, Moonbeam was enjoying herself by the lake one night when a stranger approached her... He was different than other dragons... And because of it, he had become an exile, and outcast, a rouge... He had come to the valley to seek acceptance. He found, Moonbeam... She was the most beautiful dragon he'd ever seen! Her jet black scales seems to sparkle like the stars in the sky... She was truly a fantastic creature to behold! He summed up the courage and spoke to her.

"H- Hi there..." He studdered. She turned to him and smiled softly. After a few days, they fell in love, and were mates for life... They were happy... But... It wasn't to last...

For one fateful night when Kalkozar went hunting, there was an impending doom upon them... While hunting in the forrest, he got into a fight with a ferral Hydrakon. It cut him on his snout and left a large bleeding wound. When he killed it, he carried it back to his cave, where Moonbeam lay waiting for him. They ate that night... But were unaware of what they had done...... For the next couple of days, Moonbeam began to look sicker, and sicker... Soon her condition worsened and she couldn't even sum up the strength to leave the cave... Concerned, Kalkozar left her to go and seek help from the Elders. He was gone all day, and when he returned it was past dark... He went to his cave and frooze in his tracks when he entered to cave mouth. For laying there on the floor, still and frozen in an erie position... Was Moonbeam. His heart pounded as he rushed to her. Nudging her, her body just moved limply... He tried again and again, starting to panic! She wasn't responding! Why wasn't she responding?!....... Tears filled his eyes... And he cried out as loud as he could;

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooo!!!".................

His roar echoed through the entire valley... Soon a croud gathered aroud his cave... Neffertity and Elder Volteer entered... Neffertity was only 5 years old at the time... Volteer tried his best to comfort Kalkozar, but he seemed to be in a trance, mumbling that she was ok..... Neffertity walked over and then stopped. She had a surprised look on her face.

"What's that?" She said, pointing to a small object under Moonbeam's body. Kalkozar pulled it out and his breath quivered... It was an egg. It was thier egg....................

But the dragon inside it was not Shanido... But Karakamooni......... The night of her death, Moonbeam had laid two eggs. She was able to meet secretly with the three Pandoran Elders and give them Shanido's egg. So he was raised in a secret society... Far away from The Valley of Draco. But how did he come to find it? Along with his father and brother? Well, that story starts out in the Blue-Moon Clan's oasis, deep in the desert...

Shanido had just completed the Trial's of a Warrior. A tradition for the males of the Pandora-Drake species. With completion of it, he didn't have anything else to look forward to. So, he decided to go and so a little snooping... You see, in each of the three Pandoran clan living i the desert, there was a small temple. Inside, was a mystery... Why? Because the only ones allowed inside were the Clan Elders. But Shanido figured he was stealthy enough, and crept inside... Once in, he looked around. There seemed to be nothing special about it. It was just a dusty old temple? Or was it... Feeling greatly bored by the place, he set out to leave. But then, he heard voices and footsteps approaching. It was the Elders! If he was caught in here, oh the trouble he'd be in! He quickly ran into a room and hid in the corner...... They passed... He breathed a sigh of relief as he came out. Then, something caught his attention... A painting on the wall to his right. It was of a dragoness, she looked very regal... Almost like royalty...? Beside her was a scary-looking dragon. A skull on his face and lots of blue markings. There was another like him in the left corner. Only it had a bone skull, spine, and wings. Then, in the right corner, he saw a fourth dragon... It was black with blue markings, silver horns, and purple wings... His eyes widened. It was him! Then a voice spoke behind him.

"Shanido..." It said. He spun around to see the three Elders standing there. He looked at them, then at the painting...

"What is this...? Why am I in this painting? Who is that dragoness?!" Shanido demanded. One of the Elders approached him.

"That, is the legendary Moonbeam... She did more for Pandora-Drakes than any dragon could've... She brought the three clans together, and even introduced us to other kinds of dragons....... And...... She was your mother..."

Shanido's eyes widened and his jaw dropped... His mother?

"Who are those other two dragons then? Why are they in a painting with me and my mother...?" Shanido asked.

"Because..... They are your father and brother..."

"My father and brother?! My family... I didn't even know that they existed... I knew that my mother died, but I had no idea that I had a living father and brother! Where are they?! I must meet them!" Shanido exclaimed!

The Elders told him of The Valley of Draco, and he set out to find it... When he finally did, he searched it despirately for them. Then, sitting by the lake, was them............
