Appearance:
With medium, golden brown hair, Inoria takes after both her father and mother. It hangs down in loose waves around her shoulders and often gets in her way, leading her to pull it up in a bun or pony-tail. Her eyes are a light, hazel green/gray color that are obviously more gray than green, and are never confused for brown or blue like some. They are almond shaped like a feline's eyes and are one of her most defining features. She had a light spray of freckles as well, and a pale, heart shaped face.
Her body is of medium height, around 5ft 4in. She has curves, and often will wear clothes that flaunt them off. Tunics and pants are her favorites, generally in earth tones or jewel tones. During gathers she'll wear shorter dresses that would make her holdbred uncle cry. Other than this she will often wear jewelry, but never the same thing day after day. She prefers to shake things up and try different outfits
Personality:
Fun and adventurous, out-going but sometimes shy when it serves her, caring, gentle, soft-spoken when need be, feisty when flirting, Innocent in the childish way *not in the sexual can't flirt way*, Curious
Inoria is first and foremost an adventurous girl. She never will say no to exploring something new, and will be the first to volunteer. This out-going behavior generally has her in the more social groups. However, she can be shy around larger crowds. If this happens she will draw in a bit and watch everyone else while waiting her turn to speak. As soon as she sees an opening though, Inoria is right back into the conversation.
She cares about everyone around her, even when they don't always deserve it. Whether it be a young animal or human, or a grouchy old-timer, she is there to aid when she can. Her voice is soft-spoken generally as is her temperament, though it can quickly turn flirty and lively when she wants it to. The fact is, Inoria isn't gentle and quiet because she is scared, she's that way because she's trying to allow others to speak and voice their opinions. The young women however isn't able to keep this up for long and soon has to open her own mouth and put in her own two cents.
The last obvious thing about Inoria is despite her flirting and the adventurous attitude that shows itself from time to time, she really is quite innocent. No, not the sexual kind of innocent where she never picks up on innuendos and whatnot, but the child-like innocence. When she sees a puddle for instance, she doesn't think about the consequences but instead leaps in. She stops considering what could happen, and in fact it never crosses her mind. When thinking back on her impression, Inoria thinks this attribute is why Zaranyth chose her.
History:
Inoria was the only daughter of Inali and N'ian. They were both members of Fort Weyr, and still reside there. However, N'ian's bronze is gone now. It was on Inoria's 6th turn that N'ian's bronze flew after one of the Queens. It was during a storm though and the bronze was hit by lightning sending his dragon between, and the rider spiraling into a depression that he almost didn't come out of. Inoria's mother took great care of her weyrmate after this, thankful that slowly she was able to coax him out of his depression.
Because of her mother's constant watch over her father though, Inoria was often forgotten. It was at 7 turns old that her uncle, brother to Inali, decided it would be best to take the girl off the greenrider's hands. Iraku took Inoria to a nearby Hold and raised her as his own daughter. Soon she had forgotten most of her Weyr life and became accustomed to being a holdbred girl.
She didn't forget the dragons though. Finding herself straining for any meeting she could get, Inoria finally begged her uncle at 16 turns to go back to the Weyr, and stay with her mother and father again. The healer gave in finally and took the girl with him. Going directly to parents, Inoria embraced them each in a hug. They were joyous to have their daughter back. Her father was over his depression, and truthfully had been for a while. Iraku had just been incredibly against the idea of giving Inoria back to her parents. She was meant to be here though, and that was ensured when Loraketh announced that the 16 turn old was to be a candidate. The first two clutches left her standing, but it was her third that left her with a dragonet.
The smallest egg of the bunch was rocking back and forth now, fighting to get out of its confines. With a loud crack and an explosion of colorful egg shards, the dragonet crooned triumphantly at her freedom. Finally! It was about sharding time she got out of here! Stretching her tiny frame out, lavishing the feeling, she reached out her wings as far as they would go. Now for Hers!
Prancing around the sands over to the boys, the sunlance dragonet nudged the ones she didn't want out of her way. No, no, no....ewwww no. Not that one, though hun she was sure he'd get His soon. Shaking her head the sunlace snorted. Where was Hers? Seeing the girls the sunlance flicked her tail. Duh! Running over she skidded to a stop in front of Inoria. There you are InoriaMine! No wonder I couldn't find you, you're not male. You're a girl, like me! I'm Zaranyth by the way. Hello, we'll do lovely things together I'm sure, but I think they can wait till I'm fed.....YEP! They sure can.
In Weyrlinghood, the two learned quickly, helping each other whenever they had problems. They weren't the top of their class, but not the bottom either. Instead a nice middle state was achieved. Soon they graduated to wingriders, and then for a few turns stayed at their Weyr. They grew bored though and Inoria started looking around for something to make life more exciting. She found it in a bluerider. However, he broke her heart quickly, choosing a greenrider instead. Unhappy with life, Inoria and Zaranyth asked to move to Rainbow Mists Weyr instead. After all, it seemed that the Weyr was looking for new riders, and they were glad to fill that position.
Adoption?: No please
Dragon's Name: Zaranyth
Dragon’s Gender: Female
Dragon's Age: 7 turns
Dragon's Color: Sunlance
Body- f8d489
Markings/Mind-voice- a86b00
Dragon's Appearance:
Zaranyth is a light cream color mainly with some darker variation of that cream coloring that appears around her neck, face, wings, legs and tail. Her body has shorter limbs, a long tail, decent sized wings, and a little head that's built like a hot-blooded runner's. Meaning, that if one were to compare her to a Terran horse, she'd be somewhere between a pony and an Arabian. Often this body is held proudly though, but with a sweet and tender gaze. She'll even leave her wings either half-open or tucked in tight against her sides. Never will she just let them hang whichever way without there being a purpose to their positions. The same goes for her tail which is either trailing behind her or wrapped around her feet.
Dragon's Personality:
Sweet, Curious, Shy, Gentle, Empathetic, Worries, Careful, Loving, Doesn't like "stepping on toes"
Zaranyth is a sweet and gentle sunlance. She would never harm a thing, unless of course it threatens Hers. Even then, she would be tentative with anything. She isn't the type to lash out at others either. Instead if she is angry or hurt she keeps it inside until she has a "break-down". This is mostly because, although it doesn't seem it, Zaranyth is actually shy. She worries all the time about whether or not others like her. Or whether or not they want her around.
To get over that though, she uses Inoria's confidence to form a barrier. She is empathetic toward others as well, often letting Hers' and others' emotions get the best of her and influence her moods. This can cause problems since even after 4 turns together, Inoria is still learning to keep her emotions away from her dragon. Other than these things, Zaranyth is proud to be who she is. She doesn't mind that she can't clutch or that her hide doesn't glisten with a metallic shade. She just cares about being herself and being liked as she is.
Dragon's History:
Zaranyth was one of the last to hatch of her clutch, and was in the smallest egg. She went through all the boys before finally understanding that Hers was a girl and not a boy. This realization in her mind, she easily found Hers. After that weyrlinghood went by fast. Inoria learned and helped her dragon learn anything she had trouble with. Vica-versa also happened frequently. Once graduation came around, the sunlance dragoness went through her first mating flight and has many since. More recently they found that they needed a change of pace and soon transferred to RMW since they were in need of riders.
