BIRTHDATE: Winter 2590
AGE: 22 as of Summer 2612
GENDER: Cis-Female
PRONOUNS: She/Her/Hers
ORIENTATION: Demiromantic Omnisexual
BIRTHPLACE: Benden Weyr
LOCATION: Westwind Weyr
OCCUPATION: Dragonrider (blue)
WING: Stormcloud Squad
[center]APPEARANCE[/center]
HAIR: Auburn
EYES: Deep Green
HEIGHT: 5'5''
WEIGHT: 132 lbs
PLAY-BY: Felicia Day
APPEARANCE:
Araminta is a woman of average stature, falling at about 5'5''
and weighing 132 pounds. She definitely has more of a lean
build, being stronger than she might appear to most. Her eyes
are a rather deep, forest green color while her hair retains an
auburn color. Often it has a beach wave appearance and for now
remains on the longer side, ending a few inches below her
shoulder. Rarely will you find Araminta putting up her hair as,
even while flying, she feels it's more freeing. Her clothes also
remain pretty simple, often being things you can just throw on
and go since she likes to be out bright and early.
[center]PERSONALITY[/center]
PERSONALITY:
Araminta is a genuinely open-minded person, always one to hear
someone out whenever they need it and likely try to cheer them
up. She herself is almost never seen being down, not truly
anyways. Yes, for that dramatic flair she might be pouting,
acting hurt, or even pretending to be irritated in an
overexaggerating manner, but it is all a show. The smirks and
happy smiles that bleed through always make it clear that she is
cheerful and always willing to help. A lot of the time she will
even attempt to go above and beyond for those she is friendly
with, being a rather generous person in that regard.
As mentioned above, unfortunately, Araminta does tend to fall on
the loud and dramatic side of things. She has an opinion and
likes to attempt to cause humor with her exclamations. Whether
or not this actually works depends entirely on the person yet no
one is really immune because of her extremely curious nature. If
anything comes to be of any mild interest to her, she has to
check it out which isn't always good, but she ignores that
possibility. Similarly, she also has the problem of not always
having a good limit on her honesty as, while it is positive most
of the time, she can sometimes be over-honest. Araminta never
intends to cause harm with this of course and if anything she
fails to realize when the line of harmful has been crossed.
Like anyone, though, Araminta has her weaknesses. One of the
largest ones is that she can be very impatient. She hates
waiting and she despises waiting to do tasks. It feels
frustrating for her to be told to not do something when, in her
mind, she could have it done before the end of the day. This is
a pretty bad trait to have when combined with her stubbornness,
refusing to back down on her opinions if they are strong enough.
Her open-mindedness only goes so far after all and she sometimes
can act before she thinks. It's why she attempts to just be
funnier, her self-doubt tends to remind her of just how bad her
stubbornness and impatient nature can be. Araminta doesn't like
it, yet somehow she can't stop herself and instead is just left
to often doubt how good or bad her actions might have been.
[center]HISTORY[/center]
THEME: N/A
FAMILY:
Seraphina | Mother, 42 | Alive, but estranged
Ailen | Father, 53 | Alive with a close and positive
relationship
Tisolla | Sister, 18 | Alive with a close relationship that at
times is more like rivals (Open Tie!)
STATUS: Single, Open!
HISTORY:
Araminta was the first out of two children from Seraphina and
Ailen. Nothing too out of the ordinary ever happened to her,
other than gaining a sister when she was about 4. They would
grow to often butt heads, much like siblings would do, but it
was all in good fun. If anything Araminta would be the first to
fight another person if they were to upset Tisolla nor would she
feel bad about it. The only real warning signs were how often
she and her mother seemed to disagree, though it would never get
too serious until she would grow to be older.
Right from the get-go, it was clear that she would grow up to be
loud and stubborn; the second trait being one that also showed
strongly in her mother. It was the cause of a lot of fights when
she became a teen, arguing over what she should do and what she
shouldn't. Seraphina had very traditional views and had a
strong, very hardworking personality type. Araminta's fun-loving
nature and want to do nothing but be a dragonrider. Nothing else
would do for her and she had made that pretty clear to her
parents from the start to a point where she didn't care what
color dragon she might get. Her mother heavily disliked the
disregard for planning and also the traditional views of what
colors she should get as a woman.
In fact, the reason Araminta never followed through with an
apprenticeship was mostly because of how much she wanted to
spite her mother. She'd always push her to do something useful
if she failed and Araminta found it to be upsetting that her
mother didn't think she could impress. Yes, she was stubborn and
yes she didn't have the best work ethic, but that didn't make
her a failure. In fact, she still did her best to be helpful
around Benden Weyr, simply doing odd jobs for others that needed
help right at the moment. This way of 'work', even if
unofficial, felt more freeing and kept her on her toes most of
the day. Her father at least seemed supportive of Araminta,
trying to mediate between everyone most of the time.
For years this arguing continued, especially when Araminta
wasn't able to impress the first few hatching she went to, but
it wasn't until Haloneth's impression to Haurchefant that the
dam finally broke. Her mother seemed outraged at the very idea
and Araminta could practically feel the last thread of her
father's patience being snapped in two. A fight broke out and it
was clear Seraphina was the only one not on the same side and it
was obvious no middle ground would be found.
Ailen, Araminta, and Tisolla all made their choice to follow
Haloneth and Haurchefant to the end. Araminta in particular was
excited to be rid of such traditional views and her excitement
only grew when Westwind found out they'd be having two clutches
of eggs. After all, she was still a candidate and the idea of
finding her dragon in a place that felt right could mean the
world.
"Seems you happen to be a free spirit too... Perhaps, together,
we could help make this Weyr a lovely place." was the first
thing she heard as a little hatchling made her way over to
Araminta. Later named Terrath, her new bonded turned out to be a
sweet and nurturing dragon that surpassed her wildest dreams.
Similar and different at the same time, both worked hard to
prove themselves and recently have been welcomed as full riders
of Westwind Weyr. For them, it was difficult to choose where to
go as both Araminta and Terrath were more free spirits. In the
end, they picked out the Stormcloud Squad as their final choice
and, if luck allowed them, then they would continue to strive
for greatness.

NAME: Terrath
BIRTHPLACE: Westwind Weyr
BIRTHDATE: Early Spring 2611
AGE: 1 as of Late Summer 2612
[center]APPEARANCE[/SIZE][/center]
LENGTH: 30 ft.
HEIGHT: 7.5 ft.
WINGSPAN: 48 ft.
[B]COLOR:[/B] Blue
[B]TEXT COLOR:[/B] #58c9e7
FULL APPEARANCE:
Terrath is a medium-sized blue, with fine features and a sense
of grace about every movement. Well-proportioned, she is the
perfect balance of speed and stamina, and as versatile as a blue
may come. In regard to her hide, Terrath is a bright blue all
over, with paler blue dotting the entirety of her hide. These
spots give the effect of bubbles through water, or puffs of
pollen floating through the bright blue sky on the breeze.
[center][size=18pt]PERSONALITY[/SIZE][/center]
PERSONALITY:
Terrath is a blue that seeks to nurture and care for everyone
around her. Anyone without a home or comfort shall find it in
Terrath. Welcoming and warm to everyone she meets, she is quite
a gentle and good-natured blue. While she knows she cannot have
offspring of her own, Terrath longs for motherhood, and finds
herself perfectly content to adopt anyone abandoned or lost as
her own. This extends to dragons, whers, humans, and even little
lost ducklings. Anyone that needs her shall find her to be the
light that stands against the encroaching darkness. Deep within,
she holds a power unlike any other, and she uses this as a
driving force for good. Despite her strong drive to tend to the
needs of others, Terrath is firmly grounded and capable of fine
logical thinking. Little can rattle her nerves of this serene
blue, for she is adept at adapting to whatever might happen and
going with the flow life sees fit to set. Every storm shall
pass, and the day that follows will be most beautiful.
To her bonded, Terrath is a guardian and companion. As bright as
her hide, she is extremely creative and driven, and always
shares her ideas with her bonded, so they might succeed
together. Regardless of what may come, she will always be a
strong and stable rock to lean upon. In addition, Terrath is
very calm and peaceful. Nothing can be accomplished with
violence; nothing beneficial, at least. Even in the most
stressful situations, Terrath is relaxed and at ease, even as
she assesses and formulates a plan. Common ground is always
there to be found, should one design to look. Never will she
stand about idly while work must be done...or others are put in
harm's way. Despite all this, Terrath is a blue that cannot be
leashed to another's will. As free as the wind, she will only do
as she feels is right, at her bonded's behest, or that of those
she trusts. To see another's independence be removed is a
terrible thing, and Terrath strives to see such a thing never
come to be.
Terrath prefers she/her/hers pronouns, but accepts he/him/his
pronouns if necessary.
VOICE: Terrath's voice is distinctly feminine, full of warmth
and gentleness. Listening to her speak can make one think of
comfort and home.
[center][size=10pt]Note: Terrath identifies as female, but is
male biologically. Terrath does not rise nor clutch, but may
chase if the player wishes.[/center]

[center]ZINNIA[/SIZE]

[size=18pt]BASICS[/center]
NAME: Zinnia
BIRTHPLACE: Westwind Weyr
BIRTHDATE: Autumn 2612
AGE: Newborn as of Autumn 2612
[center][size=18pt]APPEARANCE[/SIZE][/center]
[B]COLOR:[/B] Sanguine
APPEARANCE: Zinnia has a beautiful, blood-red base to her hide
that is covered in lighter, more pick-colored spots all over.
There isn't a single inch of the flit that isn't speckled with
this dab of bright color, though it's hard to tell with how fast
she moves. Despite being a newborn that will undoubtedly change
a bit as she grows, she is rather slim and small which makes it
easy for her to sneak around and she seems to be built for
speed.
[center][size=18pt]PERSONALITY[/SIZE][/center]
PERSONALITY: Zinnia, to put it shortly, is a high-energy flit.
Excitable and unable to keep still, she greets every new person
with many happy chirps regardless of if the person wants to hear
it or not. She's just happy to be alive and wants to share it!
However, the one problem is she seems to have a very forgetful
mind and is not the brightest of the bunch. Of course, Araminta
loves her dearly, but Zinnia's limbs seem to act before she
thinks about things, leading to her running into things or
getting stuck to get something of interest. It's also pretty bad
when she sees something shiny, sometimes faceplanting into other
people to get a look at the pretty object. She's simply a
simple-minded, happy, little handful of trouble.
