[J]- Ryu's Rabblerousers

[Ryuthulhu]

Name: S'kagi (Formerly Saekagi)
Age: 17
Sex: Male
Sexual Orientation: Straight, maybe slightly bi-romantic under the right circumstances.
Craft:
Rank: Candidate
Location: High Reaches
Physical Description: Saekagi is a handsome enough young man with thick, straight black hair and thick lashes and silvery-gray eyes, not quite effeminate but pretty for a man, at least on the right side of his face. The left side, usually covered by carefully maintained bangs, is a cobweb mess of paling scars he’d as soon not discuss.

He’s of average height, with long fingered hands, lean but strong and getting stronger as he handles candidate work.
Personality: A boy who used to be much more outgoing and cheerful, Saekagi has since being scarred, strongly withdrawn into himself to punish himself for his past mistakes. A former party boy, few people would probably recognize him he’s changed so much, though others have benefited with the degree he’s thrown himself into working hard, though he seems to have little to no faith that he has a future this side of say, working in the kitchens. As long as you don’t expect him to talk about himself he’s a patient, good ear, and has been known to try and lift the spirits of others around him with small treats or otherwise trying to take some of their load off, but trying to get him to actually talk these days is… challenging to say the least, and getting him to talk about himself…

Those who succeed aren’t in for much of a treat, since he’s decided he’s a human disaster and not worth anyone’s time or effort, past his ability to produce a solid result in chores.

Positive Trait List Loyal, Patient, Hardworking, Compassionate
Negative Trait List Self-loathing, Withdrawn, Poor Communicator

History:
Raised in the Creche like a lot of Weyr brats, Saekagi had the… mixed blessing of somehow finding out that his father was (very likely) a bronze rider. While never actually acknowledged or entirely certain of his parentage, that doesn’t necessarily stop a young man looking for a reason to be particularly special from embracing even the rumor of being special, and Saekagi was not alone. A few other boys with real or imagined certainty of their own importance more or less banded together and, while they didn’t hold any -actual- rank per se, made a place for themselves, frequently enough at the expense of others, getting into things and places they shouldn’t and throwing their weight around.

[edited from here]

Cocky is all fine any good,but throwing around your weight, such as it is, among fellow candidates and boasting about a theoretically lineage means about as much as a tissue paper umbrella, and few things knock down an ego gotten a bit out of hand more than being knocked down and walked over by the dragon you were pretty sure was meant for you, particularly when it doesn't seem to even notice you happened to be there. As far as he knows, they still don't know he exists, any of them, and he kind of wishes more people didn't,

The speed at which former friends turned and laughed at his pain and scarred face, and the terror he thought he was prepared for (and wasn't, in the slightest) have shaken him -badly- and he's had to talk himself into going back on the sands at all, knowing from other hatchings that as terrifying as his experience was, it could have been considerably worse, and he could even have been killed instead of scarred for life.

Green Rosmeth
Written by Uta
Colored by Uta



Origin of Name: Rosmeth's name is derived from Madam Rosmerta.
She was the landlady of the Three Broomsticks pub in the village of Hogsmeade. She created an extra sweet variant of Butterbeer. At least some of the ingredients she uses include Sugar Shrub, Mallowsweet, and Moondew. It is unclear if these ingredients are required only for the 'Extra Sweet' version, or if these are standard ingredients in normal butterbeer.

She was placed under the Imperius Curse by Draco Malfoy to help smuggle items into Hogwarts. She likely redeemed herself by fighting the Battle of Hogwarts.

Inspiration: Butterbeer

Butterbeer was a popular wizarding beverage described as tasting "a little bit like less-sickly butterscotch". It was served at numerous locations in the wizarding world and had a very slight alcoholic content. Students of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry would often buy it when visiting Hogsmeade.

Butterbeer is served foaming hot in mugs and cold in a bottle and bottle of Butterbeer in the Hog's Head costs 2 Sickles each.

Butterbeer may have had a very slight alcohol content, which could get house-elves in a drunk-like state, though an antidote to this existed. This is likely due to house-elves having both significantly smaller bodies as well as a slightly different body chemistry than humans, thus increasing their vulnerability to the effects of alcohol in any volume. It seemed to have a less pronounced effect on humans than smaller creatures such as house-elves, but humans could still fall "under the influence" of it.

Personality: If there's a dragon that's going to make you feel good about yourself, it's this bubbly little green Rosmeth! Of all the dragons in the clutch, there's a sweetness to this sociable little ball of fluff that can bring even the most contentious of groups together. She's an understanding creature, who loves nothing more than meeting new people and dragons, and getting to know their story. Everybody has a story to tell, after all, and this dragon is happy to listen. Unlike some dragons that are constantly in your face, Rosmeth's sweetness isn't often unwanted; she knows when to work a room, but also when to back off, or to take a more laid-back approach.

Those who get to know Rosmeth find that she's definitely good-hearted. She especially seems to enjoy lending a wing, or a headknob, to her clutchsibs during their times of trouble. She's the sort of green that personalities of all types are drawn too just because of how easy it is to open up and talk to her. She's a comforting sort, who has no trouble fussing. If someone seems to need attention, she'll be there; if someone looks alone, she'll amble up and try to get them into some sort of game. She's affectionate and there for you in that moment.

But those moments, unfortunately, don't always last.

Unfortunately, Rosmeth can get restless. Though she's happy to give comfort to others when they need it, in any other scenario she's just a bit on the flighty side. Weyrling lessons might prove to be a challenge as the green might well get bored with a certain assignment or task; this is when she can find herself looking to one of her more amusing and entertaining clutchmates and might well try to find something more interesting to do. Or, she'd much rather talk to one of her clutchmates or her rider than pay attention to some drill they need to remember. It's not that she doesn't care, she just... gets easily distracted. Being sociable also means she'll find just about any excuse to talk.

Rosmeth also can be a bit of a silly green. She tends to be bubbly and a bit prone to giggling during any given moment. A room full of long-faces and this green will try to liven them up. She's not necessarily immature, but she certainly has no fear acting like a hatchling even as a full-grown adult! While this tends to mean she's not afraid of draw attention to herself, sometimes her silliness can be a bit inappropriate. Her rider will need to teach her that there's a time a place for ridiculousness. She's also not a particularly deep thinker. Her sage advice can often be a bit on the shallow side, or result in her enabling behavior that otherwise shouldn't.

Positive Traits: Comforting, Sweet, Sociable
Negative Traits: Inattentive, Restless, Silly

Adult Size: 25'
Physical Attributes: Rosmeth is a good sized dragon. She's a bit heavier than some greens, with a bit of a pudgy belly on her. That said, she's surprisingly light on her feet and has no trouble bouncing around--which she usually happens to be. She's a solid dragon, and while she might wind up a bit slower in the air due to her size, she makes up for it by being able to fight against stronger gusts of wind easier than some of her more petite siblings. Her tail is a bit stubby, her hind feet a bit too large, but she's 100% endearing.

Additional Notes:
Rosmeth is a flirt, but not a serious one. Flights, to her, are meant to be fun and don't mean much to her outside of a good time. All the relationships she makes tend to be more solid friendships than romantic; and until she finds the one, she'll probably prefer casual flings more than anything. But who knows? Life is full of surprises.

She also loves to drink--water that is! She'll do much of her socializing at the Weyrlake or some other watering hole.

Theme Song: Toast to Tomorrow by Blackmore's Night
Egg: Pure White Mystery Egg 2

Why Me? Saekagi and Rosmeth make a strong and compatible pair. If ever there was someone who needed a bit of joy in his life, and someone to lean upon, than it would be him! Rosmeth is here to fulfill those needs, and then some. Where Saekagi gets down on himself and seems full to the brim with self-loathing, you can bet this happy little green is going to lift him up when he's at his lowest. Just like he tries to cheer up others, this green knows she was hatched to be there for him, for always.

He is certainly not as worthless as he believes! He has Rosmeth now, and this happy-go-lucky green is going to be there to fight those demons every day, all day. She's sweet enough that she won't ever grow distressed or upset or impatient with him; no matter how long it takes, Rosmeth's support will be unwavering anytime Saekagi needs it. Where he fails at communicating, and tends to be withdrawn, Rosmeth is as sociable as they come. Even if he doesn't say much, by association, Saekagi is going to find himself meeting all sorts of others and might have no choice but to open up. On the flipside, his patient and hard-working nature will (hopefully) keep this easily distracted green on task.

While Rosmeth loves and accepts Saekagi for who he is, she also loves who he was, and knows that there's still a bit of a fun and cheerful man somewhere within him. Whether or not she ever draws that side back out matters not to this green; no matter where he goes, no matter how he acts, no matter if he grows, she will be there for him 100%. Rosmeth might be a bit of a flake to others, but her devotion, love, and affection for her rider is always on point.

Double Clutch




The little green continued to step through the Candidates. Suddenly, her eyes landed on someone--and she knew that they would be the best playmate of them all. Giving a happy leap, the green dragon kicked up sand as she tore over to her one and only.

Letting out a loud bugle of delight and joy, any Candidates she passed would find themselves hit not just with sand, but with a sudden spike of joy and pleasure. There you are! I was looking, and looking, and looking, and I just couldn't find you! You'll play with your Rosmeth, won't you? We'll have the most fun, you and I--I promise. The green dragon pushed herself against Saekagi, hoping to butter up the boy who harbored so much guilt and self-doubt. Rosmeth would ensure he had the time of his life. But first, let's get something to drink! I'm parched!

People they Know:

Helaku of Western

white Alegriath and Arlie
-Saekagi thinks she's kind of quiet and nice, they talked for a bit before he ended up near Helaku. He's glad she impressed such a sweet looking little dragon.
-Ros: -so small and cuuuuuuute-

?? Arlie's sister:
-Saekagi is... less than comfortable with Arlie's sister, who made it pretty clear she doesn't think much of him.
-Ros is pretty convinced she can win anyone over, they just need to talk it out

Farellen:
S'kagi isn't sure he likes this young man, even though they share a history of facial scars from standing. Most of this is thanks to both of them both miscommunicating under stress, but time alone will tell if it sorts out.
Ros: like a lot of problems, this probably just needs talking out over a nice drink, a couple tall cold glasses of water for example.
