The Grand OC! [CONTEST XXX: HALLOWEEEEEEEEEEN]

RE: The Grand OC! [CONTEST FOUR: COMMAND! SUBMISSIONS WELCOME!]
Username: "Gar"uru
Name: Dominico Mander
Race: Juvenile Flowyrm
Gender: Male
Color: This one
Biography: Flowyrms are very reclusive creatures. According to legend, they reside in or around mountain lakes, specifically those of Northern Scotland. Their heads are always at a level consistent with that of the surface of the water. They are said to have an organ at the top of their heads that resembles an anglerfish's lure. The people of this area call it an "angle dongle". It is always just touching the tip of the surface, causing mysterious were-lights at night. When their heads rise above the water, they are finally able to be seen, but it begins raining. This rain is so abundant and overwhelming that it fills the lake up to their angle dongles, eventually causing it to overflow and cause catastrophic floods in the vicinity. This is what allows these Flowyrms to swim around mountains and hunt prey, usually the unfortunate humans stuck in the now-flooded villages surrounding these lakes. When the rain dies out, they can be seen wrapped around mountains, commanding the flow of the water to form new lakes, rivers, and essentially change the entire ecosystem, usually to suit their breeding cycles better. This event has only happened a few times in documented history, and each time, there were very few survivors. The reclusiveness of their species is generally due to their inability to stand being under another's line of sight. Violent fights sometime break out for the highest point.

Description: Dominico is one of these creatures, and yes, they are sentient. To some degree, anyways. Certainly not one humans can understand or sympathize with, as their means of communications are through sound waves lower than a normal human's hearing levels. Dominico is just a little bit smaller than a regular Flowyrm, as he is nearing adulthood. He looks kind of like a very long fish, around 20' in length and 2' in girth. He has broad, sweeping, pelvic fins along with three dorsal fins, side by side. However, he has nothing else that a regular fish would have, instead having a whip-like tail and smooth reptilian scales. Most scientists have concluded that Flowyrms are in fact reptiles, which would explain their ability to breathe above water. His scales are a muddy teal-ish, and his eyes are narrow and clever. His angle dongle is around 2' long, allowing him to swim in relatively clear waters unseen, due to his color. Dominico is generally reclusive, much like the rest of his species, but, as an aftermath of some accidental sightings, he has befriended a few humans, who gave him his name. They were actually starting to grow on him, and he would be sad when he ate them.

Items/Abilities: Dominico is a juvenile Flowyrm, and as such, cannot quite create huge torrents. He can, however, carry out the latter phase of the Flowyrm's breeding cycles. That is, he can command the flow of water, as long as his angle dongle is above it. To this means, Dominico will attempt to seek the highest place in the vicinity, the place that has command over all of its surroundings.
