The Dragon


 * Everything you love about dragons in a fight-sized package - Mallhalla purchase description

Ragnir is a dragon legend in Brawlhalla featuring the Katars and Axe as his weapons. He can be unlocked in the Mallhalla for 5400 gold.

As the story goes...

 * "A dragon who takes human form to compete? How is that fair?"
 * "How is that human form?”
 * "I know, right? lt still breathes fire. Things are really slipping around here.”
 * - Ada, Jhala and Cassidy, eating lunch

Ragnir Malakkir Rex is an apex predator, a dragon ninety feet long in his natural form. He hunted the Fangwild Forest and its neighboring lands, and everything he met was prey or plunder.

The first years after Ember's disappearance from the Fangwild were good for the dragons. Without its heart, the eldritch forest descended into chaos, opening paths to new lands to ravage. Ragnir's favorite entrance to a new land was to emerge from an erupting volcano silhouetted against gouts of lava. In fire and battle, Ragnir's hoard grew. He collected mountain hearts from unlucky dwarf kings. He wrested so much gold from the Madman of Barbados that he is the pirate's Moby Dick. His Fangwild lair grew so vast it was mistaken for a city of gold.

But now under mysterious assault, the forest is knotting itself into pure madness, and disaster looms. Ragnir knows the Fangwild's only hope is to restore its Heart, and he journeyed to Asgard to bring Ember back. To that end he takes humanoid form and fights in the Tournament, reveling in the battle. At night he reverts to dragon form, soaring over Asgard to find the path back to the Fangwild or just eat Odin's sheep.

"'The Fangwild is collapsing. Enemies strike from all directions, even this one. There's more going on in Asgard than you know. I just fought a feathered serpent in the hall.' - Ragnir to Ember"

Appearance
A full building-sized dragon compressed into the approximate size and shape of a human, Ragnir sacrifices some aspects of his dragon form while keeping other physical draconian traits. He keeps his fiery red outer-body scales and tan underbelly, as well as his curved ashen horns and toothy, snouted head, but trades away his wings and fully formed dragon-limbs for much smaller, clawed hands and short legs. His feet, however, distinctly betray his lizard-like origin, as they curve from the knee to his hooked toes, making lower legs completely obsolete. He is otherwise unarmored, save a pair of gray scale pauldrons on his shoulders, and a gray scale cingulum around his waist covering a pair of similarly gray shorts.

Strategy
Ragnir is a very straightforward legend, with attacks that have clear offensive and defensive value. His up and down sigs for both weapons are extremely useful zoning tools, good for keeping overly aggressive attackers at bay, while his side sig works as a valuable tool for striking quickly from afar.

Both weapons in particular have sigs useful for edge guarding when utilized as slide-charged sigs.

Strike confidently and boldly for greatest success with this beastly Legend!
