Sayla
Image


BASICS

RETIRE INFO: Retire
NAME: Artesia, though she prefers to go by Sayla. Only Sacroth and her older brother may refer to her by her real name.
GENDER: CIS Female
PRONOUNS: She/her/hers
ORIENTATION: Heterosexual

BIRTHDATE: Early Fall 2747
AGE: 21 as of Early Fall 2768
LOCATION: High Reaches Weyr
OCCUPATION: Apprentice Healer, Bluerider
WING: Healer's Wing

APPEARANCE
EYES: Blue
HAIR: Blonde, shoulder length. Bangs part at the forehead with two lone strands hanging down.
HEIGHT AND BUILD: 5'9". Her figure is a bit more pronounced, and she's rather slender with a musculature leaning more towards the athletic end of the spectrum.
PLAY-BY: Sayla Mass (Mobile Suit Gundam)
FULL APPEARANCE: Sayla is very aware of how she presents herself, and this can be seen in her tidy look. She tends to wear an apathetic expression on the outside, which may make her come off as an ice queen. Her eyes, while soft, are always looking at things inquisitively and objectively.
In terms of clothing, her outfits are usually very practical- nothing too flashy, don't get in the way, etc. Colorwise they tend to fall on the earthly spectrum a lot, but she is somewhat fond of pink. She's rather fair-skinned and seems comfortable in most climates.


PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY: If Sayla had to be described in one word, it'd be "no-nonsense". She is honest and straightforward, and doesn't like to sugarcoat things. She usually puts others before herself, which isn't always the best for her. There is a simple elegance in the way she carries herself.

If she is in poor emotional state, she usually keeps it pent up until she can break down in private when she is alone. This is mostly so she won't worry others. At worst, this can go for days on end, to the point where she'll bury herself in her work to ignore whatever she doesn't want to confront. Additionally, Sayla has a bad habit of putting work over her health at times.

Has a tendency to be slow to anger but incredibly dangerous once enraged. Two of her pet peeves are cowardice and irresponsibility. Cowardice is only done out of a selfish sense of self-preservation in her eyes. Having grown up on a ranch, she believes that there's always something that a person can help with. This probably is due to the fact that, aside from Tiablo, she was the only person ever really around at the ranch, meaning a lot of days were spent working.

Underestimating her is probably the worst mistake that can be made.

In regards to her older brother, Sayla is still trying to gauge how she feels bout him.

HISTORY
FAMILY: Lord Bronte (father), Lady Lisette (mother), Tiablo (adoptive father), Char/Casval (older brother)
SIGNIFICANT OTHER: Amuro
BIRTHPLACE: Bitra Hold
HISTORY: Artesia grew up with her older brother Casval during the Interval War. She wasn't all too aware of the state of the world, given her young age at the time, and her family kept her safe so she didn't need to worry about much. It wasn't until a raid on Bitra Hold in Late Winter 2752- when she was 5- that the threat of it became all too real. During this, Casval took her and ran. They managed to escape- however, in the chaos, she was separated from her brother.

She was then found by the herder Tiablo, who, after hearing her story, decided to take her in. Given that the Interval War was still going full force during that time, and her relation to Lord Bronte and Lady Lisette, it would be best to rename her. That way, in the event Raiders attacked (Tiablo's ranch was one of the larger ones in the area), the chances of her getting killed were much lower. Thus, from then on she went by Sayla.

The raid on that fateful night had also given her a strong fear of dragons. Since there were many dragons (and dragon-like creatures) in the world, Tiablo decided that a trip to Fort Weyr would do her good. It was here that young Sayla learned that not all dragonriders were bad. While she was still a bit shy at first, after a few more trips she got used to being around dragons and even came to be fascinated with them. There was a beauty to them that she'd never seen before.

It was also on these trips to Fort Weyr that Sayla decided to become a healer instead of following in Tiablo's footsteps. The effects of the Interval War were everywhere, and it made her want to help people as much as she could. While there wasn't much she could do at the young age of 5, she would often watch healers work (well, at least what Tiablo would let her see- he would go take her elsewhere when it came to more gruesome wounds).

While the interval war would end 3 years later, that didn't change her desire to be a healer. So, in Early Fall 2759, after her 12th birthday (and a lot of talking with Tiablo), she left the ranch to go live at Fort Weyr and train to be a healer. After traveling there on runnerback, she arrived.

Still, the fascination with dragons lingered. Several times she even considered becoming a dragonrider instead of a healer. Sayla wasn't the type to quit something she'd started, though, so she kept learning.

It was a few months before her 17th birthday that she finally realized- no one ever said she couldn't ever be both. At that point, it was just a matter of time of waiting until she was of age. After that, she would make sure she would go to each hatching until she was a dragonrider, too.

Having just turned 17, and with a hatching coming up....maybe, just maybe, she'd finally find a way to search for her missing brother.

UPDATES
  • Late Fall 2764 - Sayla's runnerbeast dies after getting its neck snapped by a rampaging wild wher.
  • Early Winter 2764 - Sayla stood at the Soldiers of Sorrow hatching and impressed to Blue Sacroth, who accidentally reveals her identity to all of Fort Weyr. By sheer coincidence, her older brother, Casval, was in the stands, and the two were reunited.
  • Late Summer 2765 - After years of teasing him, Sayla finally admitted her feelings for Amuro and entered into a relationship with him.
  • Late Winter 2765 - Sayla's mounting frustrations with the active disaster that is Fort Weyr begin to make her consider transferring elsewhere after her training as a Weyrling is complete.
  • Late Spring 2766 - After graduating, Sayla transferred to High Reaches Weyr. She'd had enough of Fort's instability, and moved to go be closer to her brother.

Sacroth
Image


BASICS

NAME: Sacroth
BIRTHDATE Early Winter 2764
AGE: 3 as of Early Fall 2768

APPEARANCE
LENGTH: 38ft
HEIGHT: 10ft
WINGSPAN: 57ft
COLOR: Blue
HEX CODE: #1dc0d6
FULL APPEARANCE: Sacroth is a blue who will be gangly limbs and awkward until he actually grows, and then he will be an incredibly handsome blue. He has a beautifully sculpted face with a thin tail, and large, lovely eyes. He has narrow wings, and despite how clumsy he is, there is a dopey grace to him. He isn't very speedy, nor does he have great stamina, but he tries, and he is very sweet. He can be surprisingly tough when the situation calls for it. Sacroth is a light, powdery blue all over. His markings are a beautiful cerulean. They twist and curl all around him in beautiful swirls and decoration. He looks as though someone delicately painted him in such beautiful ways that he is truly a glorious creature to behold.

PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY: Sacroth is awkward. He has the kindest heart imaginable, and he's very friendly. Almost to a fault, really. He goes out of his way to make friends with others. He likes to give people second chances, and he is a very caring dragon. He likes to take care of others, Seieith in particular. Sacroth is a neat freak. Everything must be clean and tidy or he feels compelled to clean up himself. He does not like to get into fights, but when pushed he can be surprisingly forceful. He prefers to talk through conflicts.

To his rider, Sacroth is extremely compassionate and empathetic. He likes to make sure that everything is okay, and puts the needs of others before himself. It is hard for him to be selfish, though he does know when he needs to rest and take time for himself. He doesn't like bullies, or loud noises. He is much more a fan of quiet nights and not having to worry about Threadfall. He really likes to learn, and loves to see new things. He considers Seieith his best friend, able to keep the other dragon from getting too wrapped up in his own guilt and sorrow.

Voice: Sacroth's voice is friendly and sweet. He can be shy sometimes.

Why me?: Sayla I hope you are prepared. Sacroth tries, but Sayla will be able to pull him out of his shell and make him stand up for himself a little more often. They'll make each other strong.
