"lyrics or quotes here"

BASICS

NAME: Dirys
GENDER: Male (trans, afab)
PRONOUNS: he/him
ORIENTATION: Bisexual (with a female lean)

BIRTHDATE: Early Winter 2746
AGE: 27 as of Late Summer 2774
LOCATION: Semaca Weyr
OCCUPATION: Wingrider
WING: Minuet Wing

APPEARANCE
EYES: Blue
HAIR: Blonde
HEIGHT AND BUILD: 5'11", slim
PLAY-BY: picrew by sangled (top), picrew by poika (bottom)
FULL APPEARANCE: Dirys is slim, bordering on too slim. While he isn't the tallest, he has a very straight posture, holding himself with a certain air of smugness, pride and confidence. Despite this, he can be expressive with his body language and facial movements. His skin is pale, with blue eyes, and wavy, blonde hair, that he keeps somewhere between his chin and his shoulders. He opts for formal or elegant clothes in dark colours, mostly blues, purples and blacks.

PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY:
Dirys is smug, cocky, and sarcastic. As well as this, he can be very overdramatic, peppering his speech with flowery language for emphasis. He has a habit of exaggerating everything, as well as blowing up every single situation into something way more than it actually is. Unfortunately, this sometimes means that he is prone to brooding, or running away from his problems, rather than actually facing them. If something very bad happens to him, he can become overwhelmed with sadness, anger, or depression, and often causes him to isolate somewhat. Despite this, he tends to keep his composure in public, hiding his true thoughts and feelings, reserved only for those he truly trusts.

He is very good with words; not only does he use them strategically to get what he needs, but he also uses them in order to assert his opinions. He believes that traditions are useless, all colours hold equal value, and that every rider should love their dragon or wher, no matter what. He can be very argumentative, and will not back down from an argument until he wins. His sense of empathy is very strong, and he is very good at comforting people. While he can be suspicious of people upon first meeting them, if one were to earn his trust and respect, he would be utterly devoted to them - he is a very loyal friend and companion. He is deeply devoted to his dragon, encouraging her in everything she does. He is ambitious, and can focus hard on a goal, he doesn't see the point in messing around until the goal is met. However, he is very impatient, and the longer things take, the more frustrated he gets. Despite being focused on what he wants, he never plans ahead, living his life very spontaneously.

HISTORY
FAMILY:
Mother - V'ira (Vydira) of Green Elanyth
Father - Unknown, uninvolved
Uncle - Evydis (Weyrfolk)
SIGNIFICANT OTHER: Perhaps he'd have one... someday.
BIRTHPLACE: Fort Weyr
HISTORY:
Dirys was, more than likely, a product of flightlust; he never met or even found out who his father was. His mother, on the other hand, was a greenrider, and thus was a little too busy to devote all of her time to her son. However, instead of leaving him in the creche as most dragonrider parents would, she entrusted her brother - with whom she was very close - with looking after her son, to which he accepted responsibility. For the early years, he was a decent caregiver - while his general parenting skills weren't great, he was at least supportive of his nephew after he came out as transgender; as well as this, he would often give him life advice, to be careful who he trusts, and to firmly assert his opinions. His mother, though most of the time she was busy with dragonriding duties, would still visit on occasion.

However, when Dirys was thirteen, his mother died in Threadfall, and both he and his uncle were devastated. It was after this point that Dirys started to clash with his uncle, who seemed to turn more and more sour as he got older. They argued a lot about trivial things - as well as this, his uncle thought, that at such a young age, Dirys was too young to decide that he wanted to be a Candidate, and eventually, a rider. Dirys knew that dragonriding was an honour, and to an extent so did his uncle, but he was of course concerned about Dirys' safety after what happened to his mother. Despite the many disagreements, Dirys still became a Candidate at age fifteen. After standing for a few clutches at Fort Weyr, and failing - he decided it was time for him to part ways with his uncle, who had relented, and realised he was wise enough to make his own decision, thus he encouraged his nephew on his way.

At eighteen, Dirys had moved to Igen, continuing his candidacy; he'd managed to impress a firelizard in the meantime, a small White, naming him Ghost. Many turns of repetition went by, more hatchings at which he failed to impress, and he started to lose hope. Would he ever get a dragon? While he was interested in travelling further, he knew that his priorities were clouded; he couldn't focus on anything beyond trying to become the perfect partner for a dragon. He had to get one before he aged out. The day eventually came, however; in the winter of 2768, Dirys impressed Green Bremirth. Throughout his weyrlinghood, he knew that Bremirth's memory issues would be something he'd have to work through, but her natural curiosity was very endearing to him. They bonded well, and after a while, he doted on her. He was so happy to have her by his side.

After graduation, Bremirth wanted more - she wanted to see more of the world. Dirys had to agree, he too was interested in travelling further afield. Many places were unfortunately write-offs; he didn't want to go back to Fort, Telgar was too cold, and Benden had its slew of issues - yet, one place stood out to him. The new Weyr founded on the Southern Continent intrigued them, and thus, they set out for Semaca as soon as they could. After spending a turn there, he has bonded further with his dragon. Despite its dangers, he has declared Semaca his home, and somewhere he wishes to stay.

BREMIRTH
Image

I promise you won't be alone anymore.

(written by thefaeriesfyre for Santath)


BASICS

NAME: Bremirth
BIRTHDATE Early Winter 2768
AGE: 2 as of Early Spring 2771

CLUTCHING

CLUTCHING: NO
RUNS/FLIGHTS: two

APPEARANCE
LENGTH: 25 ft
HEIGHT: 6.25 ft
WINGSPAN: 37.5 ft
COLOR: Green
HEX CODE: #3CB371
FULL APPEARANCE:

Bremirth is a small, sneaky kind of dragon. She looks like she would disappear in the ocean if she ever got the opportunity, all of her hues taken from the water. Her body is a light, foamy green, fine-boned and honestly a little delicate. She's not as sturdy as some of her brethren, but that doesn't mean she isn't tough. More to the point, she's resilient. Her wings are a little on the small side, a dark seaweed green on the top and a duller version of the same color beneath. Her most distinguishing marking is a light green spiral on each shoulder. Her front paws have short gloves up to the ankle in the same light green.

PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY:

You've heard the saying that curiosity killed the cat? That may as well have been written about Bremirth. Bremirth wants to know everything, wants to understand everything, and will investigate anything. She has no fear of the unknown, which works out great for her because unlike most dragons, her memory is only about two days. She will always have memory problems, and she may end up investigating the same things multiple times. However, if her rider were to tell her the result of said investigation, she would accept that in lieu of finishing her quest. She is relentless in her quest for knowledge, which may result in her shirking her actual work. She does not like to buckle down and get the job done, and she will need help staying on task.

She has quite a generous heart, though, and she readily shares her discoveries with anyone who so much as asks. She's not particularly wary when it comes to potential manipulation because she tends to trust that everyone has a good heart. That's something her rider will have to help her with, because she is easily fooled by pretty words.

Ghost
Image


BASICS

NAME: Ghost
BIRTHDATE Early Summer 2766
AGE: 4 as of Early Spring 2771

APPEARANCE
COLOR: White
FULL APPEARANCE: Ghost is small, even for a white, his colouring mostly being a stark white with grey lines swirling across his body.

PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY: Ghost is quiet, and a little strange. He is delicate, gentle, and tries not to make his presence known; he tends to sneak around, and doesn't make a lot of noise. He rarely interacts with people he hasn't met before, and would rather quietly observe.

Melody
Image


BASICS

NAME: Melody
BIRTHDATE Late Spring 2773
AGE: Newborn

APPEARANCE
COLOR: Garnet
FULL APPEARANCE: On the larger side of garnet firelizards, yet fairly slender, Melody sticks out like a sore thumb. Her hide is, for the most part, a bright crimson; she has lighter pink 'feather' shapes across her wings, and across her front legs.

PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY: Chirpy and upbeat, Melody certainly has a lot to say. She is loud, and often likes to make her presence known - not necessarily in the way of misbehaving, or making ungodly noises in the middle of the night, but she is chipper and as 'talkative' as a firelizard could possibly be, embellishing all of her movements and actions with cute little sounds. As well as this, she is unbelievably affectionate, not just when there's food on the table (but she certainly enjoys that, too). She is a cuddler, a rub-her-head-on-your-thigh-for-attention-er, and wants to be friends with everything. Including inanimate objects, if it looks friendly in her eyes.
