Description
Since 2002- 2006, I've been developing my Dragonheart prequel fan-fiction trilogy(not published yet). So, I'm releasing my costume designs for the new female characters.This character is my take on the Irish/Celtic legend about Deirdre just like the writers of POTC have their own takes about the legends and curses in the films. Anyway, I'm going to summarize what happens to her character as the trilogy progresses.WARNING SPOILERS. I portrayed Deirdre as fierce but fragile warrior princess with a tragic past. In the first story(in which I based it on the Dueling Dragons ride), she was a cruel and merciless woman. During the beginning, a battle rages between the Fire and Ice dragons, her father gets killed in battle and as the princess tries to avenge his death, she gets mortally stabbed by an enemy and falls off the castle only to be rescued by Draco(from the original). He takes her to be healed by an old female dragon( I named her Pyre). After she is given the heart, the dragon makes her lose her memory. After she wakes up from her coma she begins to wander disoriented until she is captured by a ragtag group of dragonslayers. Then she meets Draco again along with a lost chatty baby dragon named Kira, two more of his friends(a half Japanese/Chinese/European female named Ayeka and Pyre's mischievous nephew Ashe), an undercover knight and the Ice dragon and they team up with the dragonslayers to capture the Fire dragon who is terrorizing the lands. During the journey they face undead knights, traitors and hidden secrets. And the first story ends in a bloodbath: Many hunters are killed in a gory fashion. The Fire and Ice dragon meet and fight again until the Fire dragon snaps the Ice dragon's neck killing him, the leader of the dragonslayers is eaten by the Fire dragon, Deirdre escapes the Fire dragon's traps by impaling him with a battering ram. In the end of part 1, she marries the knight. In part 2, many years pass and Deirdre is slowly remembering things of her past although she is now reformed and married. Draco, Kira(all grown up), Ashe, Ayeka(who joins the Chinese Imperial Army to fight against a rogue dragon named Griffin) and Pyre return. However the kingdom is threatened again by Razorthorn: a lethal spiked dragon who is backing up Griffin's forces in the East. Many characters are introduced: Aislinn(from the original as a Celtic pict princess due to be married to Freyne), The Sea Queen(ruler of a mermaid kingdom who helps our heroes against Razorthorn) The Emperor and Empress of China, Ryu(Ayeka's brother), the wily werewolf pirate Conall and many more. Pyre still doubts about telling Deirdre her secret while sharing all of her pains due to the connection. The epic battle results are: Ayeka defeating Griffin and punishing him by taking out his heart and turning him into the thing he hates most(a human), Razorthorn is defeated by Draco but Freyne adds the finishing kill. Victory is celebrated in the West by the marriage of Freyne and Aislinn meanwhile in the East, Ayeka and her army hand the Emperor the amulet containing Griffin's heart(spoilers from the direct-to-video sequel "A New Beginning")and Deirdre sailing back home with her husband. In part 3, things become much more darker than ever. Razorthorn's daughter unites with the now human Griffin to exact their revenge. More on Deirdre's troubled past is revealed. Pyre goes crazy and unleashes her dark side after being tortured watching her daughter Kira flogged and left for dead. Ashe dies of a mysterious illness . The Emperor becomes distrustful and turns to dragonslaying. Ayeka learns about this when she is led into a trap and commits suicide. As the dragons face extinction, Deirdre makes one final decision to confront Pyre, the one who saved her life. They both battle each other and Deirdre stabs her thus coming back to her senses but ending in death. Draco and Kira survive and they have two eggs but leave one of them assigned to the Sea Queen for protection. A funeral for Deirdre is prepared and the story ends with the two remaining dragons flying away as the Sea Queen watches them in the horizon. The End and the Beginning.

When Iron Man returned home after he was captured in Afghanistan(where he first developed the suit to escape. He had that arc reactor(glowing thingy) in his chest because he was hit by shrapnel during an attack at the beginning of the movie, so that reactor prevented the bits from entering his heart.
