Bella the Cockatrice is a creature of paradox and power, straddling two realms, dragon and avian, yet fully belonging to neither. With the scaled body of a serpent-dragon, crowned by a brilliant rooster’s crest and feathers that shimmer like burnished copper, Bella is both regal and wild, terrifying and enchanting. Born from myth and mystery, she is a rare and ancient hybrid, a living bridge between the sky-soaring grace of birds and the ground-rumbling might of dragons.

Feared by some and revered by others, Bella dwells at the rip between dimensions where the Avian Skies meet the Dragonlands, a place of shifting winds and molten earth, where few dare to tread. There, she rules not through size or brute strength, but through an aura of primal majesty and cunning intelligence. Her gaze is said to be laced with petrifying magic, able to turn the cruel and cowardly to stone, yet the kind-hearted and curious find only reflection and wonder in her eyes.

Bella’s call is no ordinary crow, it’s a resonance of two worlds, a song that stirs the storm clouds and echoes through mountains. It’s said her presence alone can mend broken treaties between sky and flame, and her feathers, when shed, are treasured talismans that bring balance and clarity to those who carry them.

Neither fully beast nor bird, Bella is a symbol of harmony in contrast, a reminder that identity does not need to be singular, and that power can come from the courage to be both, to be many. She is legend, enigma, and guardian of thresholds, standing watch where wings meet scales and the impossible becomes real.
