| − | ==History==
| |
| − | '''Othello was hatched in the year [[938]], a member of the same [[rookery]] generation as [[Goliath]], [[Demona]], [[Desdemona]], [[Iago]] and [[Hyppolyta]]. In [[971]], when he was an adolescent, the leader of the clan who he called "Mentor" (now known as [[Hudson]]) had him on sentry duty and he was the first to approach [[Robbie]] and [[Malcolm, Prince|Prince Malcolm]] when they came seeking the clan's aid, and he escorted them up [[Wyvern Hill]] to talk to [[Hudson]].''' As he grew older, Othello fell in love with Desdemona, and she with him. They had become mates by [[987]], when they concieved the egg that would one day hatch into [[Gabriel]]. However, Iago wished to split them apart, since he lusted after Desdemona himself, and so lyingly told Othello that Desdemona and Goliath were lovers. Othello believed Iago’s lie, and fought against Goliath in anger, but Desdemona finally managed to somehow make peace between them. Othello and Desdemona returned to their mated life afterwards in peace, until they were destroyed by [[Hakon]]’s [[Vikings]], alongside most of the Wyvern clan, in the [[Wyvern Massacre]] of [[994]].

| − | In February of [[1995]], however, [[Xanatos, David|Xanatos]] and Demona revived Othello through a mixture of magic and technology, in a new body composed both of animated stone fragments from the shattered bodies of himself, Desdemona, and Iago, and cybernetic parts. In his new cybernetic form, Othello now bears the name of "[[Coldstone]]"; the remainder of his adventures can be found within that entry.

| − | '''Othello and Desdemona are the biological parents of Gabriel, but they do not know this as yet, and probably would not care if they did, being more likely to see the entire [[Avalon Clan]] as their children as per gargoyle tradition.'''

| − | ==Characteristics==
| |
| − | Othello was a strong, gargoyle warrior with a deep voice. He had blue skin tones and white hair. His ears were fan-shaped (like [[Broadway]]'s) and his wings were of the most common type among the Wyvern Clan (like Goliath's). He had a large pointed horn over each brow and a small club on the end of his tail. Aside from his loincloth, he also wore armor on his upper body.

| − | ==Real World Background==
| |
| − | The name "Othello" was never used on screen for the pre-Wyvern Massacre version of Coldstone in the actual series; it was used in the script (because humans and production staff need names), however, for this character to fit the symmetry of Desdemona and Iago’s names. The name, of course, derives from the title character of [[Shakespeare, William|William Shakespeare]]’s famous tragedy, "Othello, the Moor of Venice", who similarly is married to the faithful Desdemona, but duped by the scheming Iago into believing that she is unfaithful, engaged in an adulterous affair with Cassio. In anger, Othello smothers his wife, and then, discovering how Iago had duped him and that Desdemona was innocent, commits suicide in remorse.}
