Other Appearance Information:



With the ability to expand and compact his own molecules at will, this pink dragon can be at largest over twice the height of an average man and at smallest the size of a grain of rice. He has pink-white armor-like plates with darker markings covering a large percentage of his body, leaving only his waist and the insides of his arms grey. One of these plates forms a moehawk-like growth that extends from the top of his head down the back of his neck, growing smaller as it goes, and a single, large spike set to either corner of his lower jaw. The armor covering his face only allow his crimson eyes to show, the whites of which are instead as pitch-black as his pupils. A gigantic, near-red pearl is set into each of his circular shoulder-plates, which glow pink when he uses his spatial powers, including his signature Spatial Rend. His wings are made up each of three plates that have grown out long and flat, with sharp edges that easily slide over top of each other when the wings are folded against his back, although he never can fold them completely. His fingers are made up of five white claws, and his toes consist of three, with each heel sitting atop a single white spike.

Personality:
Palkia is a fairly serious, down-to-earth kind of dragon, not one to indulge in or tolerate silliness for very long. However, he does occasionally feel need to amuse himself, and what better way for the overseer of physics to amuse himself than by taking a pocket of reality and messing with it for a little while? He always puts things right, of course, and sometimes wonders how much Arceus would approve of such nonsense. He very much cares about his creator’s will, and feels it to be his duty to carry it out in any way he possibly can. He highly disapproves of those that speak out against Arceus, or otherwise express contempt for him, and becomes very angry when they persist in doing so. He seldom has opportunity to correct this behavior, however, as he spends most of his time hiding from Dialga.

Once very long ago, he was quite an egotistic dragon, believing himself to be the most powerful thing in existence next to Arceus. Now that he realizes this is false, however, his overinflated ego has been knocked down quite a few pegs, but it remains and continues to make him think very highly of himself. He clings to his mannerisms, believing they quite soundly separate him from the madness that he knows to be Dialga, and attempts to remain polite even as his patience is tested. Even he has his limit, though, and this limit is shown most often when one insists upon speaking ill of Arceus. He quite enjoys compliments, although he will mask this fact as best as he possibly can for the sake of seeming humble.

As much as he attempts to remain impartial, he has a soft heart, on occasion taking particular interest in the safety of a particular individual or group. Most that gain his favor are those with a righteous cause, those who support Arceus, and… cute. As much as he despises being considered girly or feminine or even a softie, he rather likes those things in the world that are adorable. Also, as much as he knows he’s not supposed to allow himself to be seen, no less touched, he very, very, very much likes giving and receiving hugs. But he knows he is supposed to be impartial, and that none should know of his existence, so he is forced to hide these secret weaknesses deep in the depths of his immortal soul. One thing he enjoys he does indulge in aside from messing with small pockets of reality is music, for which he will either hide in the rafters of a concert hall or cause the very air around himself to spontaneously vibrate in harmonic resonance, creating a personal pocket of sound around his cranium.

History:
In the beginning, there was only Arceus. Seeing this empty, desolate universe, Arceus created three draconic gods. One was Dialga, whom he gave control over the ebb and flow of time. One was Giratina, whom he gifted with the ability to traverse and create dimensions. And one was Palkia, whom he afforded jurisdiction over all physical aspects of the world. Although they saw one another and all knew of the other two’s existence, when they had developed the psychological maturity to handle it, Arceus set them each upon their sacred tasks – to keep those aspects of the universe they ruled in line – and they seldom saw each other as a result. As further result of this split, they forgot about each other, and were completely unaware of the existence of equals for millennia. Palkia, still unaware of Dialga or Giratina’s existence, was investigating yet another sensed altercation in physics when he ran into Dialga.

Palkia acted in a fairly friendly manner at first (or at least what he took to be friendly behavior), but when Dialga claimed to be a god himself, Palkia contested the claim. Having never met any of his brethren before, he’d assumed he was the only ‘god’ aside from Arceus, and therefore found Dialga’s claim to be utter blasphemy. As he found himself being bested by the blue dinosaur, however, he very quickly realized his folly. Fearing that what he now recognized as a fellow god would end him there, he ripped open a tear in space and fled elsewhere. And it has been the same pattern nearly every single time they have crossed paths; a long battle that inevitably sends Palkia whisking off with his tail between his legs. It certainly gave him a heaping dosage of humility, which was something he desperately needed at the time.

Regardless, Palkia continued to find time to ensure the balance of things in his domain was kept in check, continuing to flit about the world repairing broken physics, although now between bouts of battling Dialga. A few of those battles took them to a dimension unfamiliar, the forces of their battle tearing holes in the fabric of their dimension, and occasionally they would fall through by accident. They always did manage to find the hole they’d come through after the battle was over, though. One day, after repairing a particularly nasty tear in space, he felt a painful tug in his chest. With a roar of pain, he was ripped from the spatial dimension he had called home for so long, being whisked off to another one entirely. When his physical form manifested once more, he found himself towering before a strange, pale-skinned being holding a glowing red chain. The sight of the red chain, pulsing along with his own everlasting life-energy, caused him deep and terrifying fright. With a fear-inspired roar sounding of rage, he fled once again, opening up a spatial portal in the hopes of returning home through whatever tear had brought him here in the first place.

But there was no tear; he had been brought to this plane through the power of the Red Chain. Now he wanders this dimension, desperately seeking a tear in space-time that would allow him to return to where he was supposed to be…
