Profession: Honored and respected aged dragon

First Appearance: Georgie and Armand’s Place Under Siege

Bio: Ernie is a well known, well respected dragon of the high born Magstar bloodline. He has seen a lot in the many millennia of his life and has embraced the ritual of sharing his knowledge with others.

At one point in time he lived the standard life of a high born dragon, having his own city of worshipper with his every desire and need met without question. Then something changed. No one knows for sure what happened, but Ernie gave it all, setting the city free and redistributing the wealth he had hoarded back to the people in what was considered a high offense by his blood kin. His city proposed like no other on their world because of his actions, with him as a guardian, protecting them and guiding them to be self sufficient. This did not go over well with members of his own bloodline and several other high dragon families. In the resulting offensive, the city was laid to waste as an example for other high born dragons who might cross the line and give too much freedom to those who were born to serve.

Ernie denounced his heritage and went into self exile, roaming the various realms with no sense of direction for many centuries, becoming almost forgotten.

Then he learned of Georgie and Armand’s Place, and sought it out. Finding the two of them to be of similar mindset about the high born bloodlines, they quickly became good friends, with Ernie becoming one of their first full time residents.

For some time Ernie stayed in the background, doing all he could to not bring attention to himself. Somehow tales of a wise old golden dragon, possessing the great secrets of the universe, living in The Hotel started up. Beings from countless worlds started to seek Ernie out.

At first he was highly annoyed by the attention and did all he could to create a dangerous antisocial image in hopes of scaring off the masses. Then he realized if he took control of the situation he could give them what they were after, and so started the Sessions that Ernie has become known for.
