Name: Danzik
Age: 45
Sex: Female
Sexual Orientation: She doesn’t care
Weyr: Western Weyr
Rider Rank: (Assistant Candidatemaster?)/Wingrider
Previous Rank/Craft: Tannercraft - Previously made riding gear for dragons
Physical Description: Danzik is a stocky woman with muscular arms and no curves to be spoken of. She has short black hair, dark tan skin with large wine-stain markings, and grey eyes. In fact, from a distance most would mistake her as being a man - something that time has made her take less personally.
Personality: Danzik doesn’t really have time for your crap. A once sensitive woman who worried about not being taken seriously because she looked masculine, a hearty dragon, a son, and responsibility has rounded her out to have much more to worry about than just what people think about her. While she isn’t necessarily strict, she is very curt and straight to the point. If you want to goof off or not take things seriously, it isn’t under Danzik’s watch. You want to make sure something actually gets done, put Danzik in charge of it. She’ll make sure you start when you’re supposed to, but also make sure you don’t overwork yourself past when you should be taking a break.
Positive Trait List Diligent, Responsible, Prompt
Negative Trait List Curt, Impatient, Stick-in-the-mud
History: Danzik and her father came to Western Weyr to practice their Tannercraft in making riding harnesses for the dragons. Danzik was barely 13 at the time, and young enough that dragons were spectacular to the young, overly sensitive girl. She’d wait eagerly for her chance at a dragon, having barely missed a clutching she wouldn’t have been able to stand for anyways a few years prior. As she grew older, however, the desire faded with a lack of clutches laid and Danzik more or less relented that her life was going to be outfitting dragons.
Until a clutch came. While there was no gold, there was a lot of hubub about new blood and Danzik tried to not get her hopes up too high. After all - it could be several years again before another came if she didn’t impress during this single opportunity.
To her surprise, there was a small green that was just right for her - or perhaps she was just right for it. The calm, basking nature of Eosphoth didn’t seem to care about anybody who was watching and what they thought of her and her large, awkward wings or ambling way of walking, or her squeaky honk that she greeted her mother with. She was a ridiculous mess and proud of it.
Eosphoth would eventually grow into her awkward body, and after 2 years, she rose for the first time. The first rising would be a first of a few things for Danzik who, after surprisingly not miscarrying, gave birth to a son. Between a young dragon and now a young boy, Danzik got good at taking care of things and not wasting her time.
Fortunately with a father to help, Danzik’s son, Lennik, turned out fine. As he grew out of the age needed for wrangling, however, Danzik took on a new wrangling task: Candidates.
Other: I have placed with Danzik and Lennik’s ages, Eosphoth is from the 3552.06.02 clutch at Western.
DRAGON
Name: Eosphoth
Age: 21
Color: Green
Size: 23’
Physical Description:
Personality: Eosphoth is a calm dragon that radiates certainty and self-assurance - things that Danzik once needed, but now the pair walk stride-in-stride with. She’s a dragon that can be trusted with small children (and large children, get over here little Candidates) and secrets (except from hers!), and will often be ready to try and give advice the best she can - even if she needs a go-between for translating from dragon-thought to human-speech. Do you need help with something? Eosphoth can reach anywhere you need her to or talk to whoever is giving you trouble!
She does need a certain kick to get started, however, and it was Danzik’s work ethic that drew Eosphoth to hers on the sands so long ago. Motivation is not Eosphoth’s strongest trait. But she’s good at keeping work and play separated - mostly. It isn’t unusual to hear the small green bugling out a song as she flies over the Weyr.
