Arlastion is a perfect example of steel dragon's personality. He travels from city to city, pretending to be an orator for hire - a man who will present someone's view or plan in convincing way and take quite big money as reward. Despite his young age - he's only 12 - his sharp mind, confidence and social skills make him a wonderful speaker. He treats his job as a way to study human society and plans to become leader of some civilized community when he collects enough knowledge about humanity. Arlastion is generally friendly and kind, but can be menacing and ruthless when someone opposes him.
