name : Y'ul ( from Yulu )
age : 18 turns
gender : Female
sexual orientation : Asexual
craft : Healercraft , focus on Trauma ( formerly )
rank : Jr. Weyrling / Sr. Apprentice ( formerly )
appearance : Y'ul is not girlie, get that out of your mind. Girls would never dress or look the way she does, so hopefully you won't be dumb enough to mistake her as a pretty princess the first time you meet or else you'll be getting a nice fist to the face.
Her hair is short, cropped close to her head, and riddled with loose curls. The shade is a dark brown, nearly black, which Y'ul finds pretty good since she can not wash her hair for a few days and no one notice the difference. When it is humid or rainy her hair takes on a mind of its own and seems to puff out, giving the young woman something of a large puffball atop her head. She has almond brown eyes. Y'ul's father has told her that she greatly resembles her mother, as he himself is of a fairer complexion with light hair and blue eyes.
Y'ul is not tall nor is she short, settling in at about 5' 4.5" (she says 5' 5", don't question her!) and she maintains a decent weight that leaves her looking filled instead of an hourglass figure. Her skin tone is a healthy shade of flesh, marred only here and there with childhood scars (from adventures, she says, nothing more).
Her fingers are usually hued red from working with the different salves that numb/shrivel the flesh, so she keeps her fingers wrapped in bandages from the base of the finger to to tip unless she is working. Clothing style tends to lean towards the male spectrum of outfits with breeches and boots, a loose shirt more or less her top of choice. Y'ul does bind down her chest, mostly out of habit from her childhood, though she finds it also helps her while working if she can carry more without worry.
-- - --
personality : Y'ul is willing to lend a hand when asked or needed because she likes to feel useful, though more often than not she's not doing it out of charity. If there is a personal gain to be gotten from assisting others the young woman usually finds that angle and uses it, though her actions towards people she may consider friends often may make others question her methods. She seems to be more willing to help them, though Y'ul will actually not go out of her way to get emotionally or physically involved and puts in only a little more effort than with others.
Quite mannish in her actions and words, though not enough to be considered butch, Y'ul is more comfortable acting as a guy and makes no attempts to display any form of femininity in her daily routine. She is friendly and outgoing, speaking to everyone in the Weyr regardless of their status, and has an air about her that proclaims she doesn't care if anyone doesn't feel the same way in regards to her. "Regret" is not a word that exists in her vocabulary, as Y'ul lives her life each day the way she wants to without any worry or strife, and she seems rather content to continue doing so.
Y'ul can handle the verbal snipes that come her way without even flinching, though she refuses to allow others to have their honor tarnished. While she views both male and female riders equal in the Weyr she often stands up more for the females, as she expects to one day join their ranks and people need to know their place. Y'ul's words are bitter and full of spite despite being honey coated. She possess a refined talent of being able to talk down to people or actually insult them to their face, if they're not paying too close of attention, and if she doesn't like someone they'll quickly find out. She is not above thoughts of vengeance either, though she has yet to actually act on any of her grumbling. Y'ul seems to have a pet-peeve about manners but to what degree is unknown.
She's pretty insecure despite being a heavy talker and walker, her self-esteem rather low from her childhood, though she'll be sharded before she lets anyone find out. To compensate for this she often repeats her successes out loud, multiple times, in order to boost her ego. Y'ul seems to suffer from emotional detachment towards others, never allowing herself to get too close despite always willing to help out. The fact that she is a female and her failures around the Hall and the Weyr can often be attributed to being a woman really irks her, usually souring her mood until she either injures herself trying to complete the task or gets it done without any help. Also knowing that being at the Hall and the passing turns have made her more feminine both disgusts and terrifies Y'ul, as she feels that showing such actions is a sign of weakness and failure. She is currently trying to man up more, though it's not working.

history : To learn more about Y'ul before becoming a Candidate, please check her Candidate journal.
candidate period : Telgar Weyr was actually easy enough for Y'ul to adjust to, anything that came her way in terms of sneers and anything else easily deflected or passed over. She did her task and kept her mouth shut for the most part, though every now and then someone was given a piece of her mind and she was given extra chores.
It was during this period of time that she met L'pin of Blue Shamth, a rider who looked eerily familiar and treated her a little too kind for her tastes. While he appeared to not want anything from her other than the occasional company he definitely became something that Y'ul had to watch out for, mostly because his dragon was psycho and she wanted to keep her limbs.
Y'ul also got her treasured Golden flitter while being a Candidate, Gold Song.
hatching : Y'ul was sorted to stand with the boys come time for the Hatching, most likely an honest mistake from a man moving too quickly, though she didn't seem to care or mind that such a thing had occurred. It was more or less where she belonged ( in her opinion anyway ) and no one was going to take that from her, even if she should wear a dress.
After several eggs had hatched with only one injury Y'ul was getting rather frustrated at the slow pace things seemed to be going. It wasn't that she was expecting anything to come from the Sands just for her, but all that changed when a large brown started to attack and break one of the Egg. Inside was a Green, large and looking lifeless, and for a moment Y'ul felt a bit of dread.
Such a feeling only amplified when the dragon came over her way and announced herself as Erath, now claiming Y'ul as Hers. Out of all the Eggs Y'ul had gotten the one she had disliked the most for its manners, her brain having been willing to even take the chatty eggs, and now she was stuck with the lazy one.

 YuluMine, Your Erath doesn't want to walk all the way over to the food. Bring some to her.
personality : Erath doesn't want to do it! You should get someone else to do it for her. Naturally lazy, Erath doesn't like to put up much of a fight over anything. If someone gets angry at her, she generally walks away. If she has to do a chore, she'll do it as quickly as possible with as little effort put out as she can possibly manage.
She would also rather nap than play, but this isn't to say that she can't get riled up. It takes something above the norm to get her upset, but when she does, she bullies her way through the matter. Erath is a very large green and she knows how to throw her weight around. And once Erath gets angry, she is very angry.
First, she will start talking you down. Her mental voice gets broadcasted to all in the area, letting them know of the humiliation and shame she intends to cause. With that doesn't work, she will use her body to make her fellow dragons listen to her by force. If a particular person has made her upset, they can expect to never have a rest from this dragon's ability to hold a grudge. Erath's tail might flip up and knock their food plate over on accident, or she might brush by them and send them into the lake.
But, repeating, it takes a lot to get Erath to this state.
Erath's favourite people are those that do things for her so she doesn't have to. Her least favourite people are those that boss her around. Everyone in between are mostly neutral in her mind. She will socialize with these groups in moderate amounts, but there's only so much pleasantry she can take before she gets tired and needs to take a nap to make up for the exciting day.
When it comes down to Flights, Erath doesn't really want to participate in those, either. If she really has to or her rider insists, she will, but it probably won't last very long or be very exciting.
The only time Erath can be seen to be motivated is when it comes to a life endangering situation. She has to live in order to be lazy, and she is very inclined to stay living, thank you very much. Her naturally calm demeanor makes her an asset in stressful situations. She's very unlikely to lose her head, and gets things done at about average speed during these times.
why me? : Yulu is butch and Erath might as well be butch, and in a Weyr dominated by males, they stick together like glue. Then there's that small issue of insecurity, and the nature of Yulu to exclaim her accomplishments. Erath will put that to an end. Now that the two of them are together, there's no need to feel insecure. Erath's mellow, unworried nature will keep Yulu from losing her head when it comes to vengeance, and help keep her secure even in the worst of situations.
Having picked a female for Hers, it's good that Yulu can take insults, because they will be getting a lot of them. No other female on the sands would do, only Yulu has that man-like strength that Erath wanted. But, of course, no boy would do. It is Yulu's hidden feminine nature that Erath is excited over. Maybe she really won't have to do much if she can tap into that empathetic side.
One thing is for certain: they'll balance each other out. Erath will ease the fiery sides of Yulu's nature, and Yulu can help add a little bit of fire (but not too much) to Erath's lazy nature.

the spotted seal :
The slick coat and thick blubber layer in the Spotted Seal allows them to live in the cold, artic and sub-artic waters of Alaska and Canada. They are a medium sized seal and consume mostly fish, diving to depths of up to 1 000 feet.
Often confused with the Harbor Seal, the Spotted Seal is characterized by small flippers and a silver to grey pelt that is marked with random "spot-like" patterns. They are also naturally shy creatures, and tend to avoid human contact.
Read more about the Spotted Seal here.

views on Clutchmates
As long as they leave her alone, Erath doesn't really like or dislike any of her Clutchmates.
Well, except for Akerth. His rider can expect to end up in the lake a lot. Erath wants nothing to do with Akerth, or so she says. But she's always slacking off just a little bit more when he's around. Friendly tease, secret crush, or deep loathing? Only Erath and Hers know the truth.

bunk 19 :
bunk 20 : N'ran and blue Cavumuth
Y'ul was lucky enough to get a bunk that was a decent amount away from everyone else, her privacy slightly enlarged thanks to the beds separating her from the others. Erath doesn't seem to mind not being so close to her clutchmates, actually preferring the distance to allow for better nap times and lack of interruptions from noisy clutchsibs who feel the need to be social. Erath also is rather pleased that Y'ul is far away from Cass, less there be bloodshed on a regular basis.
Keeping with her nature, the area surrounding Y'ul's bunk is spotless as are all of her possessions. She keeps things in a tight order and has them all recorded in their resting places, lest something go missing and she be required to hunt down whoever dared touch her things. N'ran has been warned that if anything goes missing because of his dragon there will be a problem, but otherwise Y'ul is quite civil.

Dragonriders of Pern Shop Grey Speckled Egg:
Yaaaawn. Just getting near this egg almost makes you feel tired. Or maybe it's just the heat. This egg is tipped a little to the side, perhaps too tired to stand upright like many of its fellows. Overall, it seems somewhat unimpressed by the rest of its siblings and maybe even some of the candidates that touch it. Judging by its size, it's most likely a green or a blue. Dragonriders of Pern Shop While the blue was busy finding himself a lifetime companion, another egg twitched. It was a slight movement made so quickly that had anyone not been looking, they would not have noticed the Grey Speckled Egg.
It quickly ceased after this, and for a moment, there was nothing but stillness in the clutch. Then, without warning, the egg gave a heavy lurch. It flipped over from one side to the other, now facing the clutch instead of pointing away from it. In a shatter of shells, a hole was punched through and a dark, back foot with white tipped claws poked out of the shell.
The color was yet hard to tell. Another blue? A very small, dark brown? Maybe it was a green.
As if in response to this, the Pink Charcoal Egg began to sway too and fro. It rocked heavily for quite some time, before cracks began to appear and a green head poked itself out of the shell tentatively. She rolled away from the blue-colored egg near her and then pulled herself out quickly, stumbling over herself only once before heading with a trotting gate to the girls.
From the Grey Speckled Egg there was no further response. It simply stayed still, the foot still partially out of the shell. Dragonriders of Pern Shop The brown picked his way among the eggs. He paused at a few, eyeing them and circling those that did not seem to pass his test.
It was when he reached the Grey Speckled Egg that he screeched. Nothing happened in response. Another screech echoed out, this time louder, and the brown's eyes turned to red.
In a flurry of motion, he leapt up onto the Grey Speckled Egg and began to pull the broken shell surrounding the green's leg with force. His claws worked into the cracks and he chipped and pulled until he had removed every last fragment and revealed a rather lifeless looking green.
Or, it only looked lifeless, but as it poked one eye open and gave a huff, if was clear that it was just not interested in moving. So, the brown simply grabbed it by the tail and drug it away from the shell, his eyes returning to a mellow blue.
There was a short squabble between them that was more noise than it was fight, and as the green got to her feet, the brown followed her, giving encouraging nips to her heels.
She made her way over to the boys and stopped. The brown waited nearby.
Slowly, she picked her way between them, her head cast to the ground and her tail swaying from side to side before she yawned and settled at the only female candidate that was in the male group.
YuluMine, Your Erath doesn't want to walk all the way over to the food. Bring some to her. Yulu, now Y'ul, Impressed to Green Erath her second time Standing
