Name: Ezyzu
Age: 25
Sex: Female
Sexual Orientation: Demisexual
Craft: N/a
Rank: Gold Weyrling
Location: Western Weyr
Physical Description: At first glance, Ezyzu strikes a bit of a figure. She’s very tall for a lady, slim and not very curvy like her mother was. Happiness seems to seep out of her with every motion, waking with a smile on her face and an energy to take on the day. Bright blue-green eyes, warm as the ocean on a cloudless day in summer and gentle on anyone she may come across. Long, russet hair reaches down to her hips; it curls loosely, falling in uneven lengths and normally pulled into a looping ponytail to keep it away and off her neck. Ezy’s skin is a deep midnight umber--cool like the polar opposite of her personality. Bright near-white spots race from her fingertips up to her shoulders and drift down her back like the stars in the sky. A condition that started when she was a young girl--and after so much time spent under healer’s scrutiny, was declared that they were no hinderance or sign of illness and was allowed to stand for candidacy with her fellow creche kids. Other scars litter her hands and legs, from growing up in a Weyr learning new skills and helping carry her own weight. There’s a scar on her left leg from getting tripped up on her first Hatching and being stepped on by a wandering hatching--nothing that left damage but a green mistake that she always made sure to give baby dragons their wide berth when on the sands.

Personality: At times, Exyxu’s personality either tends to be soft and warm like a fireplace late into the night -- or the powerful explosion of a dragon’s searing flame.

Exy tends to be very present minded, with only looking a few steps into the future. She is warm and caring, happy to sit with someone if they’re having a bad day and need a solid presence. Often times it comes down to a motherly streak in her, wanting to make sure those in her presence are happy and smiling. Feeling down? Why not come get a cup of klah and sit for a while, or watch the dragons fly on their break. She exudes warm reassurance and support, unwilling to leave someone of they’re upset even if they only respond in unkindness. It’s hard to truly get under her skin when she just has great love for her fellow folk in the Weyr.

Yet, this same behavior isn’t always what people want--or need. Her warmth can feel a bit overbearing when she doesn’t take being told off for an answer--too stubborn in her will to help. The motherly drive coming off as near overbearing when unwanted. Her thick skin to take insult to face, even personal remarks, is too saintly that she seems to rise above it, and by pure luck she hasn’t been in a fight with the wrong hot-headed person.

Positive Trait List Supportive, Motherly, Cheerful, Thick-skinned
Negative Trait List Stubborn, Overbearing, Saintly

History: Born in the cusp of winter/spring to a greenrider as a product of flight, Ezyzu was as happy as she was a baby as she is growing into herself as an adult. Growing up in the bowels of Western Weyr, she grew up confident and happy--wanting other people to share in her happiness. Her mother rubbed off on her as a great inspiration to be kind to others, and to spread that love and light on.

When Ezy was just about 10, her dark skin started to pop into bright white spots--something that alarmed the child and her carers. There was a lot of time spent in the infirmary, making sure she hadn’t come down with some pox or illness--and doubly to be sure it couldn’t be spread. Yet all tests were shown that there was no illness, nothing more than a skin pigmentation problem. Nothing contagious, nothing to be alarmed over -- only to occasionally keep an eye on as they sometimes spread or spots disappeared. But Ezyzu was cleared to be in good health, and more importantly able to stand for the chance to Impress once she came of age.

Her first hatching happened when she was well into her fourteenth year-- a large clutch that intimidated her. Yet she squared her shoulders and put on a brave face. Yet Ezyzu hadn’t been completely aware of her surroundings. She tripped over her own feet trying to get out of the way of a blue, getting stepped on in the process and scarring her left leg up. Accidentally, yet she is happy for the reminder to always stay aware.

As the turns go on and on, and Ezyzu gets closer to aging out of candidacy with each passing turn, she is happy finding her place in case she isn’t chosen. Her time is spent learning more about how the kitchens work, learning to make meals with the staff to feed the populace.

Other: Should Ezyzu actually age out, she hopes to one day work up to possibly be considered for Assistant Headmaster. She also has a case of what would be vitiligo/skin pigmentation that is harmless.



Gold Khamaith

Origin of Name: Khamaith derives her name from one of the Greek word "khamaimelon", which means "earth apple". It's was given the name due to its sweet, apple scented leaves.

Inspiration: Khamaith is based on chamomile herbal tea! Unlike green or black tea, chamomile tea actually comes, not from a tree but from a daisy-like plant. Plants in this family produce tea that is most commonly known for its relaxing, sleep-inducing properties. A flavonoid, chrysin, found in the plant is partially responsible for its reputation as a sleep aid.

Additionally, this is an incredibly popular tea found all over the world, and has been used for medicinal purposes for thousands of years. Studies have found that German and Roman varieties of chamomile tend to have the strongest concentrations of beneficial compounds and nutrients that can be imparted to those who drink this popular tea on a regular basis.

Personality: The first thing one will notice about Khamaith just how incredibly sleepy she is! Yes, Khamaith loves to sleep. Naps are something this gold will happily seek out, so much so it's possible the healers will worry something is wrong with the queen! She's happiest curled up with friends and family, and will never turn down an offer to get cozy and simply sleep. Sleeping is probably her favorite activity, and it's not something Khamaith will ever truly outgrow.

Thankfully, for the Weyr, this queen is not a grumpy napper. Even when she doesn't get as much sleep as she prefers, Khamaith tends to be of a calm temperament; though her rider might get riled or angry, this queen rarely seems to have fits. In fact, as she grows, she will become an asset to her Weyr! While all queens can have a calming influence on other dragons, particularly when they're distressed, Khamaith will often be particularly good at it. Perhaps its the sound of her voice, or the sincerity behind her desire to care for those in need that often leads to the most cantankerous of spirits to relax.

Khamaith is a lover, not a fighter. Even when she is old enough to fly, aggression and anger will not drive her; love and endless amounts of caring will. This queen has yet to meet a dragon she doesn't like, or a color she spurns. She loves all within her Weyr, and will do whatever she can to make sure they know she cares. Helpful, perhaps to an annoying degree, Khamaith just wants them to know that she's there for them, and perhaps, be loved endlessly in return.

Though she is a sweet gold, she can be easily flattered, and in turn, perhaps more manipulated. She will be easily pleased by any dragon or rider that butters her up. Her caring nature, and desire to be helpful, can cause trouble among any dragons or riders that wish to use her. Her rider will need to keep an eye out on Khamaith to make sure she's not getting in with the wrong sort of crowd. Thankfully, though, Khamaith is sweet but not stupid; and as she grows, she will learn how to hold her own against those that wish to use her.

Khamaith is also a less active queen than some. Due to her love of napping, she'll have a tendency to prefer more sedentary activities. This means her rider is going to have to really try to encourage her to stay active, and that will get harder and harder as the gold gets bigger. Talking, cuddling, lounging, and sunning will always be high on Khamaith's list of favorite things.

Positive Traits: Helpful, Calming, Caring
Negative Traits: Sleepy, Sedentary, Easily Flattered

Adult Size: 44'
Physical Attributes: Khamaith is about average for a gold dragon, neither small and delicate, nor large and bulking. She is a bit of a bigger gold when it comes to her overall girth, and will likely always hold onto a bit more weight than some queens. She doesn't mind at all -- and she will remain healthy provided her rider keeps here from gorging or over eating. Her proportions are near perfect, and she moves with a lightness that might surprise some given her size.

Additional Notes: Khamaith will enjoy rising, but will tend toward shorter flights. Not because she's not interested in the fine gentlemen suitors, but because, quite frankly, she would much rather be curled up and cuddled than wasting precious energy in the air. Thankfully, she knows to fly high up, and quick, so the clutch sizes should not suffer.

During Threadfall, her stamina is on point, but her rider will need to keep Khamaith from cutting corners out of sheer laziness. She will have a tendency to pop between closer to the ground than she should, if her rider allows, or hurrying through work so she can go back and sun.

When she does clutch, she will be a happy mother. Clutching suits her well.

Why Me? There are many strong willed women out there, but Khamaith wanted one that exuded nothing but warmth. That is when she found Ezyzu.
There is hope that the two might compliment one another, and bring balance into one anthers life. When Ezyzu is at her hottest, like a dragon's flame, there is hope that Khamaith's calm will cool her to reason. There is no need to come to blows, no need to use harsh words. Khamaith will keep her rider in check, and be a soothing influence on Ezyzu. Khamaith will be there to remind her to slow down, and to take some time to enjoy the moment. On the flips die, when this queen is cutting corners, or taking the easy way out, there is no doubt that Ezyzu will be firm and keep Khamaith on the right path, without being too severe. Such harshness is not something this queen handles well -- when someone is too firm a hand with her, this queen is known to flinch and wilt. Khamaith doesn't do well with severe individuals, and will need her riders maternal support, and warmth, to help lift her up when she is rebuked too harshly.

Together, these two make a perfect match. Ezyzu has a desire to mother the Weyr, and Khamaith thinks that's a perfectly reasonable role. Perhaps, instead of heading the kitchens, she can help keep the weyrfolk in line with the duties of a queen rider. There are certainly enough of them to go around! At the end of the day, Khamaith will keep her sociable rider near and dear to her sleepy heart. She will be her best-friend, her companion, her bondmate, and together, they will care for their people and their Weyr.
