Blue Dragon - An Origin Story

Blue Dragon
ߣµε Drå§ô∩ Celestial dragons have protected the earth from otherworldly dangers since the dawn of time. Every 1,000 years one of these guardians is picked to visit the earth in human form. This tenuous connection provides a sense of purpose for the guardians, a reason to stand watch over humanity. Blue Dragon, Lord of the Living Lightning, and youngest of the Celestial dragons was chosen, leaving behind his post at the Astral Gate to travel the earth for a year. Tales from the last such visit did not prepare him for the massive leap forward by humanity. In nearly the blink of an eye, humans had pulled themselves from superstition and fear, into a shining world of technological marvels. While challenges still remained, mainly that these new found technological powers might be too much for such a young race, there was still the hope that the strength of the human spirit would prevail and that mankind might be on the cusp of a golden age. In his human form, Blue Dragon was master of the storm and a powerful being. However, he was but a shadow of his Celestial glory. He sported blue-black hair, ashen skin and eyes that gleamed just a little more than human. In modern day New Amsterdam, he didn't really stand out. It was here, however, where his immortal life would change forever. Before he could see them, he could sense them -- tiny particles of raw, continuously mutating, power. The earth was suddenly blanketed with them. He could feel the energy seep into his core. He would not know the truth of it until some time later. His time on earth was at its end. Travelling to the highest peak in Tibet, he summoned the transformation that would recapture his Celestial might and allow his return to the Astral Gate. Moments passed. He remained in his human form. Blue Dragon had been changed. He could no longer draw upon the Celestial power. He was trapped on the Earth, his gate, undefended. A storm raged around him as anger and frustration overwhelmed him. And then......he tapped into something else, a power unknown and foreign to him. "The particles", he murmured. How they had changed him, and what it meant, was for another time. His lifelong role as Earth's guardian had left him with a sense for danger. His eyes shone with determination as the first of the Legion's ships arrived. "Ah, there is always a plan...", and suddenly Blue Dragon knew why he was marooned on the Earth, and soon, so would The Legion.
