"Welcome to the weyr of E'lai and Eltimioth! Are you sure you meant to come to this weyr though? I mean, there are lots of weyrs and it's easy to get confused because they pretty much look alike and I won't be offended or anything if you were in fact searching for someone else..."

These two can be summarized in the following exchange:
entire Weyr: "E'LAI MAKE YOUR DRAGON SHUT UP"
E'lai: "I'M SORRY I'M A FAILURE AS A HUMAN BEING AND A DRAGONRIDER ;_; "
Eltimioth: "OOOOH SHINY!"

[about E'lai]

Character Name: E'lai (Eliasane)
Age: 19 22
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Craft/Rank: Dragonrider
History:
Born a Weyrbrat at Trine with at least three half-sibs he's aware of, Eliasane has never lacked for company. Unfortunately, his siblings and foster-sibs made Eliasane the whipping boy--anything that went wrong, somehow it became his fault. Despite his foster mother Jaina wising up quickly to this development, the rueful boy wouldn't dispute the blame, so there was only so much the woman could do. In spite of his reputation as the source of marauding band of Weyrbrats' trouble, he was otherwise a polite, well-mannered young boy who was soft-spoken and utterly helpful to the ladies of the Lower Caverns. He gained a secondary reputation as the cute underdog always being harassed as he headed into adolescence, and had several fans amongst the older women.

It was altogether something of a shock when he Impressed at the young age of fourteen--mostly well before any of his fellow Weyrbrats of similar age, and they were all quite jealous, though he was too busy catering to Eltimioth's every whim to notice.

Today, he's a rider that isn't particularly noticeable, though well-enoughed liked within his wing. His dragon, however, is infamous the Weyr-wide as a wicked gossip, and for being generally inappropriately blabby-mouthed.


Description:
E'lai is fairly short--about the same height as the average Pernese woman. With a slim build, shoulder-length dirty blonde-brown hair, hazel-brown eyes, and delicate features he can almost pass for a woman if someone isn't looking too closely. He generally looks a few years younger than he really is.

Personality:
E'lai is good-natured and kind--too kind for his own good. He gained a reputation early in life as the fall guy, the one who would accept the blame for any prank gone wrong and do so with a quiet dignity. His moods tend towards the rueful and sheepish; he's a worrywort who tries to be optimistic and cheerful but somehow can't trust that any happiness will last long.

Impressing Eltimioth has gone a long way towards giving the boy a backbone, as has the support of his fellow weyrling batch. But at the heart of it all, E'lai is still very much a doormat and people-pleaser and can be counted upon to do just about anything asked of him, be it a distasteful task or boring task or any task at all, really.

[about Eltimioth]

Age: about 5 7

Personality: Eltimioth is spunky, excitable--your typical overenthusiastic variety green. She has an eye like a magpie and is particularly entranced by shiny things--she's gotten E'lai to start a seashell collection for her, as finding the pearlescent objects on the sand is one of her favorite past-times when they're not busy on Weyr business. She takes advantage of her rider just as much as his sibs did in childhood, but the difference is that Eltimioth will defend E'lai rabidly to the bitter end. She's unusually rider-focused even amongst dragons, rarely showing a preference for any male dragons and her flights are almost always ruled by her rider's will. She's a shameless gossip and can't wait to tell E'lai the latest Weyr happenings.

She takes such a close interest in E'lai's life she is able to remember the names of those he interacts with, and she's likely to butt into any romantic developments of her rider's. Despite her somewhat bullying nature, she has his best interests at heart, and she's a rock-solid bastion of self-confidence for her doormat of a rider. He may yet develop a spine!

She has the odd habit of speaking to those other than her rider, and she's quite infamous for it. After multiple scoldings and a few orders from the senior Queen, she has much improved--she's been forbidden to speak to Candidates, usually can't be heard by nonriders, and generally limits herself to pestering her clutchmates' riders and possibly those in her wing, though she is quick to respect the requests of her fellow dragons to kindly not speak to their riders kthanx. She'll still occasionally spook the lucky nonrider at a Gather, as she thinks it's pretty funny. This habit comes from the green's sense of efficiency, as she usually doesn't see the point of telling someone's dragon something and making the dragon rely it to their rider when she can just tell them herself. She also fact checks her gossip by asking the rider if something their dragon told her was true, and usually judges from their reaction whether it was true or not.

Eltimioth has the subtlety of a slamming door--she is direct and to the point. She is also direct and to the point about expecting to be admired--by her rider, by her "friends", and any firelizards she can coerce into thinking so.

[relationships]

[wing relations]
Wing 2
Wingleader: G'an and Bronze Moroth
Wingsecond: K'skel and Brown Plath

G'an runs a tight ship. He expects perfection and devotion and has an intelligence to match. He believes rivalry is a healthy incentive in developing abilities but also values the comraderie of the wing. As such, the member of the wing can bicker and love as they like but it all better culminate in some sharding good flying or he'll have your hide - and he's not afraid to pull rank on you if you get too out of line, and that's a place you definitely don't want to be. Your loyalty is to your Weyr and then your Wing, end of story. It's been said he's got a fairly militant attitude but there's no denying the riders he shapes are both capable and well rounded - after all, you can't completely trust or respect someone if you don't know their good and bad sides, right?

M'ler and Green Soth -
A'lenin and Green Algonquith -
V'tur and Brown Iweith -
Xan and Blue Opeth -
J'iura and Black Dannath -

[friendly relations]
S'ren and Brown Tereth - E'lai and S'ren struck up a friendship after Impressing in the same clutch, and E'lai looks up to the brownrider as an older brother. Eltimioth and Tereth like gossiping together--unfortunately for S'ren, they're usually gossiping about him.

[family relations]

Jaina (foster mother) - E'lai still visits her frequently and brings her presents to apologize for being a terrible monster of a foster child (well, the one he assumed people thought of him as with him getting blamed for everything). Jaina and Eltimioth have a curious sort of friendship based in the fact that they both care very deeply for E'lai--as a consequence, E'lai thinks Jaina probably spoils Eltimioth too much.

[acquaintance relations]
Gabriel - A nice Candidate he first met in the kitchens. She seems industrious and the persevering type; E'lai wishes her well in trying to Impress. Eltimioth looks forward to the day she gets a dragon so she can talk Gabriel's ear off.
