Nickta
Name: Nickta
Gender: Female
Pronounced: (nick-tah)
Age: 77 Turns
Turnday: 26th day of the 11th month in the 2995 Turn
Romantic Interests: ---
Weyr: Ice Store Weyr (formerly Rainbow Mists Weyr)
Rank: DragonRider
Family: Long dead and gone.
Friends: She tends to keep to herself nowadays.
Pets: Lia's a handful enough for anybody.
Appearance: Nickta was once young and beautiful. Now that she's older, hints of that former beauty can still be seen - white hair that was once strawberry blonde, a lack of fat on her body, skin that hasn't been riddled with age spots (even if it does sag in places). She's shrunk from what she used to be, standing at about 4'11", and she still wears simple clothing. Her eyes, though, are still bright blue with silver specks.
Personality: After Impressing Liakyrith, Nickta broke her shy streak within the Weyr with help from her cousin M'ko. After the Weyr War, though, she pulled back into herself - she's become that sassy grandmotherly figure that she always wished she had. She keeps to herself most of the time, choosing only to talk when she has something to say (or a snarky comment that amuses her). She's too proud to accept help, even in her old age, and takes a bit too much pride in being able to keep up with those at ISW despite her age and Lia's flaws.
History: Before RMW, she came from an estranged family situation that she is doing her best to work past, but has left her with a fear of men. Since being Searched by S'rio and brown Jrenth from Golden Flight Hold, she has been brought to RMW, where she Impressed Liakyrith. After the Weyr War and the death of her cousin M'ko - as well as many of those she had begun to consider friends - she fled north to Ice Stone Weyr, carving out her own little niche of life and only associating with people when they need help. She's taught herself much, especially when it comes to medicine - and seeing how often Liakyrith needs wing massages, she's still strong, too.
Name: Liakyrith (lee-ah-kai-rith)
Gender: Female
Age: 55 Turns
Color: Gold-Silver
Appearance: Liakyrith is slightly smaller than the average Gold with bright Silver wings, too small for the rest of her body, but still big enough to fly. Sometimes. She's got a scar from her first attempt at a Flight where she careened into a sharp rock, but besides that, she appears to be the average dragon. (You know, as much as a mixed up mashed up dragon can be.)
Personality: Unlike her Rider, Liakyrith is rather outgoing and curious and likes to get her nose into /everything/. Though she cannot fly for long periods of time, she's a dragon who knows how to get around - and who knows that she is not one Queen color, but two. (She's got her pride and she's not afraid to use it.) She enjoys helping others, though, as she knows she can't really do much else. For some reason - perhaps a mess up in her Genetic code - she's never had a Flight. She regrets nothing.
History: Though she finally figured out how to fly days before the onslaught of the Weyr War, Lia chose not to Fly and fight - or, rather, she was told she shouldn't because of the fragile nature of her wings. Disgruntled, she helped her Rider with medical stuff. Now she lives with Nickta up at ISW, still poking her nose around and exploring when she can. She does enjoy flying, but doing it for long period of times hurts her wings, so she's taken to walking around and helping (or what she thinks is helping) others do basically anything.
