<strong><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 14pt;">Brand, the Dragon Knight</span></strong><br/><br/>Brand hummed to himself as he walked, an airy little tune which markedly contrasted with their surroundings.  The scenery was oppressive, and he felt the need to fight back against the somber world around them.  Listening to the old man's tale, Brand smiled a little and nodded along with the story.  He liked the idea of a dragon saving people, sacrificing itself to hold back a beast.  It made him feel like there was some hope for him after all, though the dragon was probably not like his own ancestor.  But still, he could hope and dream, and in the world they lived in, every bit of it mattered.<br/><br/>Looking at the ruined town, Brand bit his tongue.  He wanted to volunteer as well, since he knew a spell that would turn him invisible as well.  But he also didn't want to reveal that he knew magic.  Caught between curiosity and the desire to keep his secret, Brand dithered for a moment before piping up.<br/>"If you'd like, I also would be able to investigate.  I have a method to render me invisible."
