BASICS

NAME: Semi (Elided, originally Kanasemi)
GENDER: Nonbinary (dfab)
PRONOUNS: they/them
ORIENTATION: Pansexual

BIRTHDATE: Late Autumn 2747
AGE: 26 as of Late Summer 2774
LOCATION: Semaca Weyr
OCCUPATION: Wingrider
WING: Requiem Squad

APPEARANCE
EYES: Brown
HAIR: Brown
HEIGHT AND BUILD: 5'2"
PLAY-BY: art by me :]
FULL APPEARANCE: Semi is short, and somewhat curvy, with an olive skintone. Their posture is often relaxed, almost never bothering to stand up straight, and their frame retains a feminine shape despite their dress sense, hairstyle and facial appearance being relatively androgynous. Their dark-brown hair is thick and fluffy, but cut short. They have dark brown eyes, the left of which scarred and covered with an eyepatch. Their dress sense is often formal, opting for shirts and trousers, in shades of white, black, and green.

PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY: Semi's outstanding trait is that they're... not very outstanding. They tend to hang back, not getting involved in the drama, unless they are approached first, or if their dragon pulls them into a situation. This is not out of shyness - they are in no way shy, in fact, they can be quite confident and will speak their mind on how they are feeling to those they trust with little issue - it is mostly out of apathy. They don't care about anything they deem petty or useless drama, such as relationship squabbles. In their mind, there are bigger problems. Their greatest downfall is that they can often be very pessimistic and negative; they don't often think to speak positively much unless they get comfortable with someone. The way they speak is often stoic and sarcastic - however, they do have a sense of humour, which often doesn't get seen by people they don't know well. They have common sense, and are intelligent, but can sometimes come across as cold, or closed-off.

Often they will take risks, but they are almost never spontaneous. They try to plan ahead, to the best of their ability. They have good organisational skills, and can be surprisingly good with people. Their level-headedness and organisation would make them a good leader, if they had any interest in doing so. They have no sense for formalities at all; in their mind, a hierarchy based on factors one lucked into at birth (or hatching) is an incredibly stupid concept. Thus, they don't care at all for traditional structures. Greens are just as good at leading as Golds. They don't really care for manners, and can be vulgar - despite this, they can be kind. They care for their friends, and will always defend them. They are a good listener, and like being near people. If they make a friend, they will be a friend for life. They love affection, even if they would never, ever admit it. They especially like being around very positive, happy people. Deep down, they wish they could feel more positive, and not automatically assume the worst about most things. They love animals, especially dogs, and admire their endless energy that they wish they had for themself.

HISTORY
FAMILY:
Mother: Arasemi of Green Arask
Father: Dekan of Brown Desk
SIGNIFICANT OTHER: none yet!
BIRTHPLACE: Ista Weyr
HISTORY:
TW: Eye injury
Born to two wherhandlers at Ista, possibly as a product of runlust, Kanasemi grew up in the creche, never particularly getting to properly meet their parents - they were always asleep when their child was awake. They were a relatively lonely child, not often interacting much with other people in the creche, however, they decided at a fairly young age that they did want to become a dragonrider, or a wherhandler, one day. In their mind, either would be good for them. Slowly, mostly due to boredom and the monotony of daily life, they became jaded throughout their childhood, gaining a fairly bleak outlook on life; at least, they thought, if they had a companion, and became a dragonrider, they would at least have something to do, and someone to talk to - they didn't really get on well with anyone else in the creche.

At fifteen, Kanasemi became a dual candidate, having no issue with lessons or picking up new information. The first hatching at which they stood, they did not impress, however, they were attacked by a hatchling, scratching their face and leaving them blind in their left eye. Though they had to consider whether or not it was a good idea, they continued to stand. It took them some time to adapt to only having one working eye, but they eventually overcame it, and hoped that it didn't stop their chances at Impressing.

Their dragon came to them when they were eighteen, a cheery blue named Ofieth. At first, they were shocked that such a positive, happy dragon had chosen them; however, they soon found out that a dragon like this was a huge comfort for them. The two would often discuss where they wanted to go after graduation. Semi was particularly interested in this new Weyr, one that didn't go with the typical Weyrwoman format for its leadership, and seemed to stay out of most political conflicts. Thus, after their weyrlinghood ended, they left for Semaca. Not only that, but Semi was interested in the new Weyr in general; to them, it was a fresh start, and somewhere new to explore.

Upon arriving, in 2767, they settled in fairly quickly; the hot weather was something to adapt to, but they managed. Though the Weyr was still very new, and there were plenty of dangers, such as the wildlife, they enjoyed their time there. They liked the fact that it was managed differently to a traditional Weyr, and made a home there with their dragon. They had joined the Requiem Squad, opting for a squad that focused on defending the Weyr from spotties and providing people with food. Having spent three turns at Semaca, they had fully settled; this was where they wanted to stay.

Ofieth
Image
Where's mine? Where's mine?!?! There's mine!

BASICS

NAME: Ofieth
BIRTHDATE Late Winter 2765
AGE: 5 as of Early Summer 2771

APPEARANCE
LENGTH: 33ft
HEIGHT: 8.25ft
WINGSPAN: 49.5ft
COLOR: Blue
HEX CODE: #3e888b
FULL APPEARANCE: On the smaller end of 'average' for a blue, Ofieth's hide is a deep teal all over, fading into a lighter colour towards his tail. Diamond markings run across his neck, and the same marking appears on his legs. More diamond shapes, in both dark and light blues, are scattered across his torso, and his tail is patterned almost like snake scales, with some diamonds being darker than others. On the undersails of his wings, light blue bands fly outwards from the centre, fading at the edges, with some horizontal lines connecting them, almost making it look like a shattered mirror.

PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY: Ofieth may as well be a dragon-shaped dog. He is always very excitable, and very interested in meeting new people. To him, everyone is either a friend or a possible threat, with no in between - and he sees himself as the best judge of that. Though he is often friendly and positive, his spatial awareness is not great, and doesn't realise exactly how big he is, often causing him to bump into things if he isn't paying attention to his surroundings. As well as this, he gets easily distracted by loud noises, and will immediately forget what he was originally doing to go over and investigate it.

To his rider, Ofieth is a beacon of positivity and optimism. He always believes things will get better, and firmly stands by the idea that every cloud has a silver lining! However, on occasion, if someone or something presents themself as a threat, either to him, Semi, or the Weyr in general, he will do his best to protect them. He has a duty, and he will stand by it (or at least he will try)! Though he isn't very bright, he is definitely very loving, and will always listen to his rider. There is nothing, in the entire world, he loves more than his rider, and he makes that very apparent.

WHY ME?: Semi could use some positivity in their life. Have a big, friendly dog dragon.
