Biography
Temeraire was hatched onboard the HMS Reliant and took a liking to William Laurence. He is very intelligent for a dragon (as all Celestials are). He can speak French, English and Chinese as well as a smattering of Turkish and Feral dragon language. His mother is Lung Tien Qian who hatched two "twin" eggs, Temeraire and Lung Tien Chuan. Chuan is companion to crown Prince Mianning, so Temeraire was sent away as to not be a rival to the throne. He was meant to be companion to Napoleon Bonaparte but HMS Reliant intercepted the Amitie which was carrying the egg to him.
Temeraire is known to devour every knowledge of any sort he can find his claws on. He loves to learn, and ask often Laurence to read books of any kind to him, even if Laurence doesn't understand what it is all about himself. Temeraire has refined taste, so to speak, since his travel to china. He was treated as a prince (being a Celestial does have some advantages.) and had many expensive and delightful meals, so he since then like his meat spiced up with anything a cook could find.
Temeraire is a free-thinking and prone to fight for Dragon Rights. He likes to change the order of things, unlike other dragons who doesn't see why they should cause an uproar and change things that are, in their opinion, very good as they are aldeary. Temeraire is often upset with this.
Despite being an intellectual dragon, a Celestial, he has a high fighting spirit, which displeased to chinese people.
