FULL APPEARANCE:
Meghan is slim and slender, willowy and petite at 5' 6" in height. Her hair flows long and straight, brushing her mid-back in length; a rich reddish auburn in color, flame red in the light. Her eyes are large and doe-like, full of expression, hazel green. Due to her near constant exposure to sunlight, freckles dot her nose and cheekbones, and her skin is a lovely shade of tan. Her love of plants reflects in her garment choices. Meghan enjoys wearing all shades of green in loose clothing that lets her feel the wind. Generally, she's seen in a simple pale green tank-top with flowing pants (or the occasional skirt) of darker green, with leafy vines embroidered onto the fabric in light green. Depending on the weather and her mood, she'll wear a light shawl over her shoulders, in a blend of purple and yellow and red, with purple tassels. It is very old and worn, showing how much she loves it, as it was a gift from her mother's mother, a beloved and talented Weaver.

PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY:
Meghan is quite shy and humble around strangers and guests, speaking very little and making herself politely scarce in some corner of the room, busy with a task to keep from having to interact. In truth, she enjoys the company of people, but her social anxiety simply chokes out all attempts at conversation. Thus, Meghan often rehearses talking to people by talking to plants instead. And failing miserably whenever people do show up to visit.

Once coaxed out of her shell, Meghan is a wonderful person to be around: very gentle and kind and sweet-tempered. She enjoys being around her friends and is happy to share her knowledge of plants and animals to those who wish to listen. It's almost like once she grows comfortable enough to talk, she won't stop! Yes, Meghan has a tendency to ramble on her favorite subjects if they're brought up, to the point she has to be deliberately told to be quiet.

Despite being a gentle creature, Meghan has a fiery temper deep within, and it will come out if she sees any plant, animal, or person being picked on or hurt. She will bravely put herself between the danger and her new patient, hurling angry shrill words at the danger before bundling up her patient and storming off to treat whatever hurts, be it physical, mental, or emotional hurt.

Meghan will always do her best to keep others around her safe and happy, even at the expense of her own health and happiness. A Healer at heart, her main goal is to make sure anyone under her care is recovering from whatever ails them, even if she has to stay up three days straight to ensure that. As a result, Meghan's health will often deteriorate around the sick and the hurt, as she begins to forget to eat and sleep like a normal person, and instead making sure everyone is well-tended to.

All in all, Meghan is a sweet girl. A little naive and maybe a bit too quick to trust, yes, but a loyal and gentle friend to have at your side. As a bonus, Meghan always tends to carry fruits and vegetables from her family's farm in her knapsack for a healthy snack, and is always eager to share these treats. Her hobbies include gardening, cooking vegetarian foods, swimming, reading anything on healing or botany she can get her hands on, botany, hiking, and the occasional bout of stargazing.

HISTORY
FAMILY:
Archer - father - farmer - 45
Tilda - mother - Journeyman Weaver - 42
Maggie - younger sister - 14
Dexter - younger brother - 8
SIGNIFICANT OTHER: None, but open!
BIRTHPLACE: Small cothold of Northern Continent, near Nerat Hold
HISTORY:
Meghan's life is, and has always been, simple. Meghan was born to her loving parents in a small cothold, and has been raised in their small, but cozy home. Ever since she was a child, Meghan has grown up around plants and animals, with an intense love for both the flora and fauna around her, developing rapidly through her younger years and remaining to this day.

Despite her father being a farmer and the love of the land she inherited from him, Meghan's dream has always been to be a Healer; specifically, a dragonhealer. Her parents have always supported her in this, though they've been curious what spurred their firstborn to want this. Meanwhile, their second daughter is quite mercurial in her life's desires, wanting to be a Scribe one day, and a Tanner the next.

While exploring the area near her home several years ago, Meghan discovered something awesome: a firelizard egg. It was alone, partially buried in the sand, away from an empty nest. She guessed that someone had discovered the nest and gathered the eggs, only to drop one without noticing. Not believing her luck, Meghan took the egg home and took meticulous care of it, where it hatched into her beloved green lizard Rhus. The pair are nearly inseparable, and Meghan is very fond of her Rhus. So is Maggie, but Rhus is scared of boisterous Maggie.

Ever since her decision to pursue Healing, Meghan has poured her focus into learning what herbs treat various injuries and ailments through lots of reading through the deteriorating scrolls that were discarded for being too worn for Healer use. Her avid research has spawned her love of reading, encouraging her to explore even more into her subjects of choice whenever she can find the material. Her desire to heal also encouraged her to train her green lizard to be her assistant of sorts, and she succeeded...with a lot of time and patience and juicy morsels of food. Her efforts paid off, and she managed to begin an Apprenticeship with the local Healer and get access to proper learning materials, despite having a later start than most, at age 12.

Meghan, through her time spent with old hides and lots of plant cuttings, has gathered a lot of knowledge of Northern Continent flora. Only about two months ago did she hear there was more to discover in a place called Southern Continent, and that dragonriders have settled a Weyr there...with pirates around. Swallowing down her fears about pirates and the possibility of being denied, Meghan expressed a desire to her family: her desire to request transfer to Semaca and continue her training there, among the new plants of Southern Continent. A thing she did not tell her family was her insane desire to become a dragonrider, if the Semaca riders would accept her as a Candidate.

PRODITH

Image

BASICS

NAME: Prodith
BIRTHDATE: Early Winter 2773
AGE: Newborn as of Early Winter 2773

APPEARANCE
LENGTH: 38.25 ft.
HEIGHT: 9.25 ft.
WINGSPAN: 57.5 ft.
COLOR: Blue
HEX CODE: #053537
FULL APPEARANCE:
Prodith is a large blue, solidly built. His hide is a dark tealy blue, and he bears a large marking across his entire body from neck to tail and up onto his wings that looks like a giant weed in bright sky blue with cobalt blue leaf veins. Across his wings are what look like the wind-blown seeds of that weed.

PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY:
A dragon of as few words as he thinks he can get away with, Prodith rather enjoys being a bit of an enigma. He doesn't want to be easy to befriend, he wants to know that his friends have put some effort into trying to get to know him better. He also doesn't have any great need for companionship, being perfectly content to spend the majority of his time alone. He holds no great love for anyone, though there are a few people he at least wants the best for.

What Prodith does love is the natural world. People are tiring, but being out in the jungle or near the ocean is rejuvenating. He'll occasionally lament the necessity of cutting down trees to clear space for the Weyr's buildings and fields, and especially resents the presence of the new and growing hold founded by the "sailors". He has nothing against them for any crimes they may have committed, because he finds most rules and morals beyond his own choice to personally do as little harm to anyone as possible completely pointless, but intruding on the beauty of the expanse of nature in the south is to him an unforgivable crime. The fact that they're settling there when they could be anywhere else is enough to draw his ire.

Even toward his rider, Prodith is rather aloof. He doesn't seek out their company any more than he does anyone else, though he'll at least acknowledge them... usually. Sometimes even his rider's intrusion into his solitude is unwelcome, and he has a habit of retreating alone into the jungle, heedless of the danger of spotties. He doesn't need anyone to watch his back.

Why Me?: He may not always be a friend, but this can go only one of two ways: either they balance out each other's flaws, or they both try to live in the jungle in solitude.

Rhus

Image


BASICS

NAME: Rhus (pronounced 'Roose')
BIRTHDATE Summer 2768
AGE: 3 as of Winter 2771

APPEARANCE
COLOR: Green
FULL APPEARANCE: Rhus is a beautiful firelizard, with dark green for her entire lower body and most of her neck, growing into a paler green trailing up her wings. She has a leaf-like pattern emblazoned on the underside of her wings, earning her her name. Rhus can blend in very well in dense foliage as a result of her coloration, making her the near constant winner of hide-and-go-seek in wooded areas.

PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY: Rhus has a helpful personality, and is quite intelligent for her kind. She has been well-trained by her person, Meghan, to behave well around people and not be bothersome. In addition, she is capable of performing simple tasks such as fetching objects and delivering messages to people that are well-described/depicted to her.

Tricks, however, are not her strong suit. Despite being a smart and playful creature, Rhus simply doesn't understand tricks well enough to learn more than a couple. She can roll over and jump through a hoop, and that's about it. This is partially Meghan's doing, as Meghan is a more practical sort, and focused more on behavioral- and task-training over entertaining tricks.

Around people, Rhus is quite a delight. She enjoys the company of humans and firelizards most of all, with whers being a close second. She does like being around dragons too, though she will flee a mean-spirited or ill-tempered dragon. Rhus, like Meghan, has her limits to social interaction. If she's had enough of people for the day or grows tired, she'll hide her head behind the curtain provided by Meghan's hair, signaling her wants.
