Welcome to Gaia! ::

Name: Kaivani

Gender: Female

Age: 18 turns

Appearence: Blue-gray eyes that change colors- blue, gray, silver-gray, green(I keep it to something believable)- with her clothing and her mood; pale skin with skattered freckles; golden brown hair with red and gold highlights and bangs that goes down to midback; 5' 5"

Personality: A Candidate at Xavren Weyr, she has a temper that's quick to flare at an insult, but cools off quickly. She can hold a grudge easily, but is a sweet, happy girl who likes to make friends- as long as they start the conversation. Scholaraly endeavors never held much weight with her but for writing and reading, which she can't seem to get enough of. She's always been fascinated by the dragons and the firelizard legend, and would sneak out to the small woods near her home or the caves by the shores to try and catch a glimpse of them. She finally got lucky and managed to find a just-hatching clutch, much to her amazement, down in the warm sands of an alcove by the shore. Unable to alert anyone else- not that she was sure she would've anyway- she used the small amount of food she had with her to Impress a few of the darling things. Quite shy in new circumstances and around people she doesn't know, she has yet to make any real friends at the Weyr, although she's lonely and hopes that maybe after Impressing she'll be able to push away her shyness and make the first step towards being a "good" dragonrider.

History/Bio: Her father was killed during a storm and her mother died 2 Turns ago. Since then she was taken into the care of Nerat Hold, despite her troublesome nature. Luckily for her, she was Chosen as a Candidate and now is waiting at Xavren for the next Hatching.

Name: Sophia

Gender: Female

Age: 17

Appearance: Gray eyes; curly chesnut brown hair; 5' 6"; lightly tanned skin; rather beautiful

Personality: A caring young girl, Sophia is quiet, but very individualistic, despite her bond with her brother and sister. She's very much a child of the air, and has always dreamed of flying on a dragon and fighting the mythical Thread. Although intelligent, she often acts rather ditzy when she's around her friends, to cover up her natural observance and the fact that she has what could almost be called empathy. She doesn't feel bad when others do- except as a good friend- but she can sense when someone is feeling a certain way, or lying about it.

Background: The middle child in a set of triplets- not identical-, Sophia and her brother and sister were all Chosen for Impression at Telgar Weyr, but although they possessed great ability, none managed to captivate one of the dragonets. Immediately after the Hatching Telgar recieved news that Xavren's Clutch had begun to Hatch early. Rumors getting passed as they do, Sophia begged the blue rider who had found her and her siblings to take her to try her hand at a Xavren Hatching. Her brother- younger by a minute and a half-, seemed to want to go but was uncertain, but her older sister flatly refused. She wanted a dragon at their protecting Weyr and that was that. So her little brother stayed with her older sister at Telgar while Sophia was flown to Xavren. Both her parents live in good health at Nabol Hold, but are skeptical about Sophia trying her hand at such a distant Impression(they came to see the Hatching, just in case). Promising to keep in touch with her brother and sister through their "telepathy"- more of an emotional link, exclusive between their triplet bond- she breaks free of the "middle child" stereotype and heads off for her own future.

Pets: Two flits: Numair- Brown, Daine- green

Name: Loranna

Gender: Female

Age: 20

Appearance: Loranna is about 5' 7" with a light complexion. Her hair is a deep auburn with red hues shining in streaks. It comes down to her shoulders and is slightly wavy. Her eyes are a sea gray, giving her appearance a slight mystery. She has a plain face, but her voice is clear and pleasant.

Personality: Loranna is usually a nice person to be around, but she is susceptable to mood swings. She is willing to do anything to help anyone, but she doesn't like being taken advantage of. Her temper can be explosive, but short-lived. She finds comfort in the outdoors, her dragon, and music.

History: She grew up in a small hold with five other children. She, being the oldest, was expected to help take care of the younger children and often got blamed for their mischief. When her parents died of disease Loranna was stuck with her younger sibilings. Most of her sibilings had already been sent to various Crafthalls, and her youngest sister went to live with a relative. It was beginning to look as if Loranna was sentenced to a life of drudgery when she was discovered on Search for Telgar Weyr where she Impressed her Nemrath. She was one of the few chosen from Telgar Weyr to help found Xavren Weyr.

Status: Searchrider

Dragon Name: Nemrath

Dragon Description: Nemrath is an average green in length, but she has strong muscles that give her more stamina then most. Her color is a muted forest green with various other shades of green running through her hide.

Dragon Personality: Nemrath's personality is like her rider's, moody. Though Nemrath is usually Loranna's voice of reason, she gets to be very unpleasant when it gets close for her to rise. Other than that, she can be a very nice dragon to be around.

Color: Green

Origin: Small hold near High Reaches Hold

Residency: Xavren Weyr

Approval: Thank you, El! ^_^

Name:: T'nal

Gender:: Male

Age:: 18 Turns

Appearance:: Tanal is about an average height for a young man, about 6' 2". He wears his pitch black hair a little on the longer side, letting some of it hang down to cover his midnight blue eyes. His skin is slightly tanned from working outside.

Personality:: Tanal is a hard working person, but he knows when it's time to relax and have fun. He is pretty laid back around other people, not letting anything they say get to him. He's a pretty friendly guy, willing to talk to anyone and make new friends. He is pretty protective of his friends, and will beat anyone up who tries to hurt them, or speaks ill of them. Once someone has gotten on his bad side, it takes a lot to get him to see them differently.

History/Bio:: Tanal was apprenticed to Harper Hall when he was 13. Before that, he was the son of drudge at Sothern Boll. His mother never spoke of his father, so Tanal grew up not knowing who his father even was. This didn't bother him too much because the hold's harper had taken a liking to the boy, and gave him the male influence he needed growing up. The harper was the one who recommended that Tanal go to Harper Hall. Tanal was happy there, but something stirred deep within him, almost telling him that his destiny was elsewhere. He finally realized what these feelings were telling him when he was Searched for the clutch at Xavren Weyr.

Pets:: Blue flit Lance

Status:: Brown weyrling

Dragon Name:: Dalanth

Dragon Personality:: Dalanth is a very curious brown dragon. He's always wanting to know what things are and how things work. He's a very laid back dragon, always wanting to make new friends among the other dragons and even the flits.

Color:: Dalanth is a dark chocolate color through most of his hide. The tip of his nose and the tip of his tail are a light, tree bark brown, while there are dapples of milk chocolate brown shining along his back ridge.

Origin:: Sothern Boll Hold

Approval:: Totally approved. *Puts an official Vana-mod stamp of approval on it* Tanal is in! ^_^

Name: Airinna Leonact

Age: 20 turns

Sex: Female

Weyr: Xavren Weyr

Height: 5' 1"

Craft: N/A

Family:
Mother; Gwen, rider of green Shelth
Father; T'hal, rider of brown Rayth

Discription: She has a thin frame that is five foot one. Long, chocolate colored hair falls to the top of her waist. She usually has it tied up in a green colored strip of leather. She has remarkable green eyes that are comparable to emeralds. She has a fairly average face. It's not ugly, but she's not breathtakingly beautiful beyond all compare. Airinna wears hues of green, it being her favorite color, but on occasion will wear red.

Personality: Sweet, some times sarcastic, but usually has a very fun-loving attitude. She will, on occasion be rude, but only if she's under stress. She hoped for a green, not a gold. She likes to make people laugh, and to laugh herself. First impressions are often very important to her, as she tends to decide what she likes and doesn't like very quickly.

History: Airina grew up in a small house near Deneb Hold, though she only went there on special occasions. Her parents were kind of strict, but they were nice enough to Airina. She had no brothers or sisters, so she grew up semi-lonely. But, now, she has taken to Weyr life and is planning on staying for a long, long time.

Pic: Coming Soon.

Dragon's Name: Kayrith
Dragon's Color: Green
Dragon's Brief History: Kayrith hatched in an other weyr, being transfered after a fall. Impressing Airinna at age 16, almost 17. She hatched rather late in the impressions, but as to why even she does not know. She went straight to Airinna as if she already knew where she was, and perhapes she did. The impression was made with a playful n** to Airinna's robe. The rest is history.

Approved: Change the Weyr to Xavren, and I think you'll be fine.


Name:: D'lan Ranar

Gender:: Male

Age:: 18

Appearance:: Tall, lean Dylan has mussy blond-brown hair. His eyes are a mixture of blue and green, with brown specks swirled in. He's not very muscular, he's more of a runner. He generally wears tan-ish pants and white or dark blue shirts.

Personality:: Dylan is a playful creature at heart. He does his best to act serious somtimes, but mostly his spunky side overrules. He's very spur-of-the-moment, tipically not thinking about his actoins first. When faced with a large issue, his desisions are mostly sound.

History/Bio:: Dylan had a typical history, growing up in Deneb hold, living a peacful, if monotonus existance. When a blue searchrider selected Dylan, he was thrilled. He was first taken to Deneb Weyr, but the population was to much for the provisions to provide. He was trassfered to Xavren Weyr when that happened.

Pets:: None

Status:: Canidate

Origin:: Deneb

Dragon Name: Bronze Reith

Dragon's Personality: A spunky little thing. Or not so little. The dragon is, however, more reserved than D'lan. Reith likes to flirt, and is rather dashing when he wants to be. The normally kind dragon has a streak of pride that he does not take lightly when trod upon.

((-gasp- A bronze! Eeeeeee! ))

Approved: Approved! ^_^

Name:: C'llen

Gender:: Male

Age:: 22 Turns Old

Rank: Weyrleader

Physical Description:: Standing around 5'7, C'llen is strong with a build that is toned from turns of work as a child and even now as a bronze rider. His hair is a dark, sienna brown hue with accents and streaks of dirty blonde. Tapered and razor edged, it's always in an array of a spiky mess. His eyes are of a hazel hue, vibrant greens with a brown glaze cast over it, which gleam with curiosity. Aside from the typical work a dragonrider performs the bronze rider craves adventure but after a careless mistake while searing thread, a scar that is shaped in the formation of a sideways, stretched "t" upon the right side of his face has become his constant reminder that thread is unpredictable and corrosive; it is not something for one to take lightly.

Personality:: C'llen has a passion for adventure and thrills. As if the rush and exhilaration Threadfall produces wasn't enough, the bronze rider seeks any activity to help feed his desire for exploration.

His typical nature portrays one who is charming and considerate of those around him as he would think of others before himself. As for social skill, he never could refuse to attend a Gather or any special event within the Weyr as he loves to converse and associate with just about anyone. He's never held tight to anger nor has ever sought revenge upon an individual as he follows an old motto; "Forgive and Forget."

Though when the life of a dragon rider and emotions seems a bit overwhelming, C'llen can't help but flee from the chaos of Weyrlife. One can find him either secluded in a tranquil setting whether it would be by a lakeside or in his weyr as he would let his mind contemplate as his body relaxes from the tension and uneasiness that sweeps within his soul.

In truth, C'llen is still young in comparison to many other bronze riders yet that never had stopped him from seeking to learn from others. He typically finds himself trying to learn of the world around him and of himself. Sometimes he still doubts himself in various aspects yet he finds himself having to come to reason with not only his mind but his heart also. Constantly reflecting upon his mothers dream, C'llen still presses forwards in hopes to bring honor in making his mothers dream live on.

History:: With bloodlines whose roots were founded upon Xanadu Weyr, Cellen was born a Weyrbrat. Barely reaching six turns, his mother, Kalia, had fallen ill and passed away a sevenday later. As Cellen looked towards his father for strength and guidance, Remus found him mind to constantly dwindle on one lone wish that his dearest Kalia had kept him to hold to before passing on; To help his son unlock his potential of becoming a dragonrider.

Turns passed and, unexpectedly, words of Xanadu's gold Caeith lying a clutch on the sands spread like wildfire. Candidates were assembled and, by fate, Cellen was chosen to stand on the sands as a candidate at eighteen turns. The scorching sensation underfoot was slightly unbearable but, for the most part, his mind was swarming with thoughts that reflected upon his mother's last request and of just how tangible such a dream could become. As each egg became lathered with cracks and shattered into countless fragments a new destiny was sealed with the bonding of rider and dragon. Cellen on looked the sight before him with hope and silent pleads.

It was when the piercing sound of an egg splitting open resounded within the Hatching Grounds that his destiny was slowly forming.

His mind was secluded until a jubilant voice broke his thoughts that he glanced down towards his feet. For there, playfully tugging at his immaculate robe, was a bronze dragonet with eyes swirling in upmost joy. Falling to his knees, the new Weyrling threw his arms around Talonth's neck and buried his face within his hide. As Cellen, or now C'llen, forged a bond with Talonth the adventures were just beginning. He had now endeavored into a life altering destiny and now would take his first steps towards making his mothers request a new found destiny.

At twenty two turns, C'llen had long found himself in the ranks of the dragonriders of Xanadu Weyr. It wasn't until a few months passing that there was word of dragonriders needing to transfer toward Xavren, far in the southland and away from his home.

He was skeptical but perhaps a change of scenery and lifestyle could define a more vibrant sense of adventure by traveling to a foreign Weyr. Thus he left everything he had ever loved and become familiar with, memories and faded recollections, to seek out a new life at Xavren Weyr.

Currently Twenty-four turns, he now finds himself as the Weyrleader of Xavren Weyr and still continues to prosper alongside new friends and, of course, new adventures.

Origins: Xanadu Weyr

Current Weyr: Xavren Weyr

Dragon:: Talonth
Age: Four

Personality: Talonth sparks a personality that is nonchalant and typically looks upon the bright side. Curious and what some would call a "thrill seeker", the bronze tends to portray a positive attitude and a sense of duty with, of course, a hint of a bubbly nature. He is the one responsible for stirring up a love of mischief and adventure within the heart of his rider but, in the long run, it all has proven to forge an unbreakable bond of rider and dragon. Talonth shares an unbreakable bond with C'llen which often leads to jesting and teasing one another but it's in affection and playful fun. Often displaying a content and bright appearance, Talonth is most joyful in the company of other dragons and always loves to wander about in search of thrill and adventure.

Approval: Obviously approved already, but since it didn't say it...

(Yay! I finally finished my ALL NEW CHARRIE! Lol I figured we'd need a second Searchrider at some point for those who actually wanted to rp out their Search. El's charrie can handle some, but if she isn't about, we will need a backup. If it's okay with you, Stry, he can also double as a sweeprider.)

Name:: Y'zor

Gender:: Male

Age:: 30

Appearance:: Short, almost platinum blonde hair that's messy half the time; gray-green eyes; lightly tanned skin over a decently muscled body; 5' 10"

Personality:: Although his gray-green eyes always seem ready to laugh- and he does have a sense of humor- Y'zor is very serious much of the time, giving most everything a logical outlook. When comfortable, his grin is an easy one, but if he's out of company he appreciates, he instantly pulls on his emotionless mask and replies in a cool, rather collected way. Because of his calm analytical way of looking at a problem, this bluerider can be very helpful in tactical plans and is an asset to his Thread fighting wing. Y'zor might be difficult to deal with at times- for someone so young he's ridiculously stubborn and set in his ways- but once someone has "proved" oneself to him, he'll stick by them. His serious attitude often makes him seem much older than his mere 30 Turns, but Y'zor is at the peak of his good years and revelling in it.

History/Bio:: Born and raised at Telgar Weyr, Y'zor Impressed Farevth from one of Gold Thoroth's Clutches when he was 17. The two have had many good years together, and despite many Flights they've participated in, and multiple partners they've had, Y'zor has never found the right person to settle down with.

The son of a brownrider and a greenrider, Y'zor had hoped to impress(I keep capitalizing the word "impressed", now, no matter if it's in the proper context or not! Lol DROP on the brain!) his father by Impressing a brown at his first Hatching, but wasn't chosen at all. After the third time up and not Impressing, Y'zor had all but given up hope and stopped going to Hatchings at all. The Weyrlingmaster, a friendly man, had said that some people simply didn't have what it took to be a dragonrider, and that Y'zor could still help out around the Weyr despite his lack of a dragon. This obviously didn't console the young dragonrider-to-be very much, but it did help him start attending Hatchings again as part of the audience or to bring out meat for the ravenous dragonets, clapping as friends and strangers alike Impressed their beautiful counterparts.

So, to say that a final little blue stumbling up to Y'zor was surprising is something of an understatement. While he was helping bring meat for the new Weyrlings, Y'zor noticed a final blue on the Sands, pitiously crying for his rider, nosing past the Candidates and peering into the crowd. Y'zor felt bad for the blue, Chosenless, as he was. Then the blue had turned his head and looked straight at Y'zor before crying out and scampering across the Sands, falling all over himself to reach the boy. From then on, Y'zor's life was a whirlwind of memories that he has enjoyed all the more for his beloved blue.

Pets:: N/A

Status:: Searchrider/Sweeprider

Dragon Name:: Farevth

Dragon Personality:: Almost the total opposite of his rider, Farevth loves to have fun and is exceptionally friendly. A gifted Searcher, Farevth has the ability to see true Impression potential. Up to date, his ability has an Impression rating of about 96%- one of those he put up for Candidacy didn't Impress, but is up on the Sands again for a second time at Telgar's Hatching-, which he is rather proud of. Loving the warm Sands of the Southern Continent, Farevth likes spending free time, on the beaches with Y'zor, sunning himself while his rider swims or suns with him.
