Name: Amiari
Age: 49 (Spring)
Sex: Female
Sexual Orientation: <3
Weyr: Western Weyr
Rider Rank: Wingrider
Previous Rank/Craft: Courtesan Hall -- Dancer Journeyman
Physical Description: Amiari looks and breathes confidence. She’s a born motherly type, from her personality down to her appearance. Her skin is a warm bronze, standing a medium 5’6” and confidence in every inch. Willowy and lively, movement comes easy to her. Long, earthy locks fall to her waist, usually pulled back in buns or ponytails -- or done up in plaits, beads, and feathers if she’s feeling rather showy. Even after having six kids, her form is curvy and fit. Wide hips carried on dancing feet. The wind is free with this one, her bright green eyes always smiling or laughing in the perpetual happiness that radiates from her. Two beauty marks dot her cheek below her right eye. Whenever she’s being a good rider or good mom, she’s dressed down -- but give her the chance to dress up and she’ll be there looking like a star. She even takes paints to her slithering thread scars that race down her shoulder and side, down her thigh as well. Months upon months of rehab never held her down from walking--nevermind
dancing again.
Personality: Amiari is nothing short of a loving woman. She dances through life, easy and gentle. She has a fierce compassionate side to her--for she loves so deeply. Her Weyr, her dragon, her kids--nothing stops her from embracing everything that she can. Her arms or shoulder is open, if someone should need a shoulder or hug. A mother to her core, she can’t ignore a child to a fault--should they need anything, be hungry -- Faranth help her if they’re crying. It’s caused her to step on some toes, but Amiari is very compulsive and need driven--especially if someone
needs her.
Yet Amiari is also on the flightier side. She breezes but also flutters--avoiding longer-lasting relationships with gentle let-downs and friendly smiles. It’s not to say she can’t make friendships, oh no. But relationships aren’t quite the thing she’s ever looked for, ever since her heart was broken so many turns ago. Yet it doesn’t stop her from enjoying flights so eagerly with a dragon that is a touch rise-happy, and all the better for the occasional friends-with-benefits. She’s sweet, kind, and loving to any that want her attention, but less-so on the mark to be tied down. It’s left an impression on her to treat herself with a bit of self respect, and treats herself with small things--even if she ends up sharing them with her kids. Baked goods, treats, new garments, oftentimes some of this wealth gets shared around even if her intentions had been rather hedonist at heart.
A dancer at heart, Amiari has learned to sway and weave with what life throws at her. Thread, months of injury rehab? Turned into grounded kid-bonding time. First unplanned pregnancy? The beginning of one of the best joys life has given her.
Positive Trait List Compassionate, Loving, Adaptable, Generous
Negative Trait List Flighty, Gamophobe, Compulsive, Hedonist
History: Amiari was born in mid spring to a loving pair of riders at Western Weyr. She was a bright, happy child from the start, never shy about smiling or being around strangers. Who are strangers when the Weyr is your family? Bright and super friendly, she was always happy when there was a celebration and dancing to be had. Yet her parents noticed she had a penchant and passion, she was sent to Courtesan Hall to learn to be a dancer. It was a privilege and an honor, and while Amiari missed out on turns worth of standing for clutches, she learned her craft and buckled down for something she was passionate about.
She would walk the tables when she was just into her seventeenth turn, and made her way back to Western Weyr as a proud Journeyman Dancer. Taking her training with her, she was happy to jump back into Weyr life and able to spread what she had learned. She took up the mantle of a candidate happily, though she had also turned her sights on what other avenues she could bring enrichment to Western--for she had all but assumed she would age out eventually, and wanted to bring wealth in other ways than defending Pern.
A tiny spring green dragon begged to differ, for she sashayed into Amiari’s life so happily. Amiari was Cloveth’s, just as Cloveth was
hers.
They tackled weyrlinghood together, putting all their might into learning all they could--while enjoying the most out of life. It was through their senior weyrlinghood that Amiari had met someone that she might have loved, met through wanting to learn how to dance. Their twisting dance lasted well after graduation, but not long after. She was dropped like a bad habit, and the greenrider put on the bravest face she could--until she rolled her ankle and landed in the infirmary and on the ground for a few weeks. It was during this time that she learned she was pregnant with her first child, the child of her former lover.
Yet despite her heartache, she eagerly awaited meeting her first child--and fell in love with motherhood. While Amiari wasn’t entirely eager to give her heart away again, she gave it to the perfect bundle in her arms--the first of many. Six biological children and many, many fosters would make her life more complete, each and every one getting all her heart could give--even if it meant her love life was nothing more than a flitter in the wind.
It was but a few short turns after her sixth child’s arrival that she was finally able to rise to meet threadfall for the first time--and it ended about as poorly as she could have lived through. A massive clump collided into her’s and Cloveth’s side, down her left side and continuing into Cloveth’s. They had to be caught, and it was months upon months to recover again. Crutched walking lead to walking, led to running, lead to dancing. Slowly she was herself, reassuring her kids that she was okay, that they were okay -- and thankful she lived to see another day with her beautiful children.
She watches as they grow from the sidelines--as Ezyzu grows with her little golden girl, as Nonami gets ready to stand for their first hatching. It’s all Amiari can do to prepare her children for their future.

DRAGON
Name: Cloveth
Age: 30 (3543.09.17)
Color: Green
Size: 25’
Physical Description: Cloveth is constantly moving, even if it’s just the gentle sway of her head and neck. Full of constantly flittery energy, the only time she’s ever not constantly moving is when she’s sound asleep--even if a light sleep, Cloveth shuffles and kicks. Her hide is a bright spring green, grassy and bright. She is just a bit bigger than the average green, with wide wingsails and carry this dancing girl across the sky to kiss the clouds. Threadscars mar her left side, down her shoulder where her rider had sat and trailing down her chest and foreleg. Deep ugly scars that never weigh her down, for she is still able to move freely after so much time spent recovering.
Personality: Cloveth is a happy girl to a fault!! Where others might find this unending wave of sunshine and rainbows bothersome, Cloveth is rather oblivious to it all. She is an eternal hatchling it seems, for she makes time to play--especially with her rider’s collected clutch. All the tiny kids give Cloveth a run for her marks, for the silly green is never happier to be covered in laughing children. She is gentle, always making more trills and cheeps than any other notes out of her, almost like a large bird.
Like her rider, Cloveth is a flighty thing. Sweet and kind, and always happy to cuddle up with any lovely dragon of any color, her hearts are as free as the breeze. While she gives attention to any who wish it from her, she has yet to let herself be caught by any other than in the air. She likes to dance in the air, but unlike Amiari, has not quite sold off never having a mate. She is just like her breeze of a rider--have fun trying to nail down the wind.
Flights are a thing Cloveth most enjoys. Dancing in the air, kissing clouds with her wings, caressing her suitors with the gentlest of praise.
