[ Background/History ]
Hakuryuu is a small dragon, about the size of a housecat, who has the ability to transform into a Jeep, thanks to a synthesis of yokai magic and science. It is speculated that this small form could be as punishment from the Gods, for things that happened 500 years ago in Heaven. It has been confirmed by Minekura that Jeep is indeed the incarnation of Goujun, the Dragon King of the Western Seas. However, how or why he was transformed into a small dragon is unknown, and he does not have any memories of his time as Goujun.
Regardless of the origin of his ability to transform, sometime in the 3 years before the Minus Wave hit, while Hakkai was living with Gojyo, he was found weakened in the forest by Hakkai, and became the man's pet, as well as primary mode of transformation. Though he initially did not get along with Gojyo, they eventually compromised due to their shared "taboo existences." Where Hakkai goes, so does Hakuryuu. When Hakkai agreed to journey to the West with Sanzo, Hakuryuu came with them as their vehicle. Over the course of the year or so that their journey has taken them so far, Hakuryuu has been nearly eaten, driven over and off of all kinds of terrain, gotten sick, and still stuck with Hakkai and the group.
[ Personality ]
Hakuryuu is very forgiving in nature. He'd have to be, considering the abuse he gets, from Goku when he's hungry, and Hakkai when he's driving (Hakkai would not pass his drivers' test). Hakuryuu is also very gentle, and fiercely loyal to Hakkai, and the others by extention. Hakuryuu has placed himself in danger to protect the four, even if his slight form has no chance of standing up to whatever the antagonist was.
[ Specialties and Abilities ]
In dragon form, Hakuryuu's wings give him the ability to fly. In the anime he has the ability to breathe fire, but it is unknown if the manga shares this (Minekura has been very vague on this subject). If he could, it would likely be at the level of a lighter wand like you'd use to light a barbecue.
In Jeep form, Hakuryuu functions as a normal Jeep. He can transform back and forth at will, including if someone's in him (they will end up on the ground, and he'll be in the air).
