[the drake looks to care little about who it splashes. it is warm and cozy and no one is ruining that for him right now.

eizen glances over at ranma upon hearing the question before turning his attention back to the overgrown iguana.]

Yeah, it's called a drake. Simply put, they're like dragons, minus the wings. Where I'm from, a drake ends up becoming a dragon eventually.

[which is a whole ass thing that involves a lot of stuff that isn't pleasant. needless to say, those drakes and dragons back home ain't nice. this guy, on the other hand, just seems like big fella who wants to enjoy a hot spring.]

They're big, wingless and can pack one hell of punch if you're not careful.

[eizen goes back to settle down back into the hotspring. the drake's taking up a decent chunk, but there's still some room.]

But this guy here seems more interested in soaking than fighting.
