Day 7 | Dragontooth
2012 – DAY 07
All characters are created by my 5 year-old son, The Junior Partner.  He has either drawn these characters on his own and I have recreated them here, or he has sat at my elbow dictating design and conceptual ideas like a creative, but frenetic, taskmaster.
DRAGONTOOTH
In mystical times, Dragontooth was a villain intent on capturing lands and castles.  He enslaved villages using people to mine gold and gems out of the mountains.  he used mystical weapons to intimidate and conquer his foes.  he discovered a magic trident with which he harnessed mystical flame energies  After using the powers for some time he realized that he had in actuality, been slowly allowing mystic dragons to enter the world via use of the trident.  The dragons emerged and Dragontooth found himself fighting with the people he conquered against the dragons.  By using the trident’s full energies he banished the dragons from his time but as a result he, himself, became lost in time.  He emerges constantly in new eras and alternate realities in order to prevent the dragons from conquering those specific realms as well.  Sometimes he must act the villain, other times, the hero.
About the Author (Author Profile)
Teacher, Playwright, Performer & Superhero Enthusiast. My first crayon drawings were of Superman and Captain America. I always wanted to draw comics but never followed that passion beyond some self-published zines and forays into early internet comics. I've worked in various aspects of graphic design and fooled around with a spray can at various stages of my life, keeping my pen busy and full of various inspirations for the doodles in the margins of my notebooks. Inheriting an iPad changed my productivity with the ability to draw, edit, color and post onto the internet via one device in the limited time I have to mess around with my doodles and drawings. My 5-year-old son is my biggest fan and the main reason for my artistic renaissance. He's the reason I'm drawing more often and the person I draw the most for. For the 30 CHARACTERS challenge this year, he is my co-conspirator and collaborator. His excitement and innocent love of superheroes and drawing has kept my inner cynic/critic at bay and we are having a blast this year making up a whole new universe of heroes, robots and monsters for the internet. -updated Oct. 2012Subscribe
