About
Blue is a uniquely modified V.1.5 raptor, infused with DNA from a Black-Throated African Monitor Lizard.
The oldest member of the raptor pack, Blue was the first V.1.5 I.B.R.I.S. raptor born in 2012. Blue and Owen Grady have the closest bond, however she also is the most independent of the raptor pack, and the others look to her for leadership. To help maintain his dominance as the 'Alpha' of the pack Owen consistently feeds her last. Even so, Blue constantly challenges Owens authority when given the chance.
Blue is fiercely loyal to her packmates, and is the Alpha when Owen is not present. She is the most cunning raptor of the pack, which also makes her the most dangerous. While she has a respect for Owen, she saw him as an outsider of the pack until the fateful encounter on mainstreet. When Owen unleashed her harness, she finally accepted him as a true member of the pack, which led to Delta and Charlie following her and accepting him as well.
She is the only known survivor of the I.B.R.I.S. Raptor Squad.
Appearance and Physical Attributes
Blue is the largest and stockiest raptor of the pack, easily identified by her scute covered face and striking blue stripe.
Blue's face is similar in shape to V.1.0 raptors, but is wider and has less angular orbital sockets. Her nasal cavities are more forward facing and pronounced due to the additional width of her skull. Her unique scute coverage is most pronounced on her orbital ridge, lower jaw hinge, top rear of the skull, and run down the back and sides of her neck. Her body shape is very close to that of the V.1.0 raptors, but stockier with a less pronounced muscle and skeletal structure.
Blue's color consists mainly of greys and low saturated browns, with inconsistent splotches of darker greys highlighting the top of her scales. Her most notable color feature is her asymmetrical lateral stripe which starts at each eye, and runs down the the sides of her body. The stripes are almost black dark blue color, which have a iridescent sheen that gives off a lighter blue appearance. Each stripe is highlighted with white at its edges, making it stand out even more.
