Physical Description

[pishirogane]

As a gargoyle, Naoto takes an appearance that alludes to the mythical Japanese Dragon complete with a long running mane down her back. Around her face and the four spikes on her chin is a stand in for the beard most female dragons grow with two more protruding spikes on her cheek acting as whiskers. Six more spikes near where her normal ears once were act almost as cat ears, helping further express body language by rising forward, pulling back, rising, and falling depending on her mood. Finally, on the crown of her head are stag-like horns that protrude out and then curl forward as opposed to out and growing into a rack out over the back.

For all the crowning spikes, Naoto doesn't have many more over her body. However, her entire body has become plated by dark scales. From under her chin and down, even her torso has become covered by large silver scales and pointed protrusions down the middle. She doesn't have to concern herself with the usual female secondary sex traits due to the change and the slick appearance makes her one of the faster fliers. Speaking about flying, her wings are very large for her size - about eighteen feet measuring from one end to the other. Her tail too is long - ten feet of muscle that can be lash out like a whip. Of course, it's also prehensile meaning she can snag, grab, and carry things with it.

Down to her legs, her feet, once human, have now become digitigrade. While it's obvious there was once thighs and calves, her feet have stretched into scaled talons. They're large and sharp, much like the harpy eagle's. Once they snap down, the trouble can be getting them off as the talons can pierce deeply. There are two tufts upon the 'ankle' of each joint connecting the legs to the talons themselves.

Overall, Naoto is still small in comparison to many of the Gargoyles and the stone she turns into under sunlight is Lapis Lazuli. While not built so much for combat given the lack of spikes, Naoto is quick to learn in-control or on instinct. With a high speed and high defense given by her scales, she'll often use her speed to her advantage with swift strikes and turns, and even hail down fire. She seems to have an abnormally excessive magic ability and can reach higher temperatures once explored in full.
