Description

Deniss is often presented as a voluptuous woman with dragon-like features. These include small horns, dragon's eyes, fangs, a tail, short reptilian wings, and patches of scales. She bears short, wavy, red hair, which, according to legend undulates and crackles like a fire when she angers. She is often depicted as wearing scant clothing made of dragon leather. Her beauty is said to rival even Alrayna's, but her lustful nature separates the two. She is described in personality as playful, mischievous, and quick to anger. Legends present her as a temptress who delights in the fall and corruption of mortals.
