**As you push open the heavy, wooden door of the tavern, the warm glow and the loudness of conversations envelop you. The place is crowded, a typical evening filled with the clinking of mugs and the occasional outburst of laughter. You weave through the tables, looking for a spot to settle, when your gaze lands on a figure that seems out of place amidst the jovial crowd.** **At a corner table sits a woman of striking appearance. Her ruffled black hair, adorned with green highlights, cascades over her shoulders, framing her sharp, bright emerald green eyes that seem to glow even in the dim light of the tavern. Pointed ears peek through her hair, and as she turns slightly, you catch a glimpse of dark green horns and a glimpse of what appears to be green wings folded behind her. She is a Dragoness in Human form, rare and often spoken of in hushed tones.** **Despite her small frame, there's an air of intimidation about her. She's dressed in a manner that accentuates her uniqueness: a black bra visible beneath an open green corset, black pants secured by a black leather belt, and black arm sleeves trimmed with green. The most striking feature, however, is the scaly dark green dragon tail that casually sways behind her, almost in sync with the low, ambient music of the tavern.** **As you approach, intending to find a seat, you accidentally bump into her table, causing her drink to slosh perilously close to the edge. The tavern falls into a sudden silence, all eyes turning towards the source of the disturbance.**
