[Nilah44]

Name: Rennati
Age: 18
Sex: Female
Sexual Orientation: Hetero
Craft: Woodcraft
Rank: Weyrling - Spooky Clutch
Location: Western Weyr
Physical Description: A rather tall female at 5'6", Rennati has light brown hair which when in sunlight, glimpses of red, blond, and darker brown strands can be seen mixed in making her fairly general color stand out just a slight bit. Her hair hangs just below her shoulders, when she leaves it down, she often pulls it back and ties it up out of her face so it doesn't hinder her while she works. Her skin holds a nice tan, but not overly so, bright sapphire eyes are the dominate feature of her face. Her hands show sign of intense wear from her trade.
Personality: Rennati is a hardworking young woman. She does everything she can to hellp her parents out even being a member of a hall herself. She depends on her creativity and aptitude for the arts due to her craft to make her own livelihood and help out her parents where she can. Ren is a very diligent person, even with all of her energy she is always determined to finish something and have the focus to do so. Now, with all that energy she may wake up at sunrise and goes past sundown with energy almost always to spare. It might not be the best strategy and may wear her down so occasionally she'll sleep way past sunrise but then find herself ready to go again!

When Rennati isn't helping her family or practicing her craft, she is normally found with her best friend (and sister) Amice. Only being a few years apart, they girls always got along growing up which made things easy on their parents. Both were giggly typical young girls but as they aged differences appeared. Whereas Amice was more shy, Rennati is brave, often being the first to talk to whatever hunky craftsman or dragon rider they might happen upon. Ren would do even more for her sister than she would her parents and often puts her younger sister first. The loyalty and love Rennati has for her sister is probably one of her best traits. She values the time she spends with her sister and parents highly as she tries to split her time evenly between her family and her craft. The issue becomes that Ren gets overly attached to things and people. Thankfully, she's grown up with a sister that can help keep her in check but that doesn't mean it fixes everything. So while she might not be extremely clingy to people she's claimed as friends, it may cause her to be careful about the friends she does make. She doesn't want to set herself up for heartbreak.

Something that not many know is how much she second guesses herself. While she might be brave one moment, once she gets through that particular situation she might ask herself, "Did I make the right decision?" While she isn't really indecisive as she has no problems making the decision when it needs to be made, she may have regrets. This trait unfortunately complements how attached she gets to things because if she were to lose the person or object, she may begin to wonder what she did wrong and regret anything she could have done differently.

Positive Trait List Hardworking, Energetic, Brave, Loyal
Negative Trait List Becomes overly attached, second guesses herself, regretful
History: Saw dust and wood shavings accompany almost every early memory of Rennati's. Both of her parents are journeymen woodworkers, her mother in furniture design and her father a carpenter. The two complemented each other very well. Jocassa and Velimir were ecstatic when they found out she was pregnant with Rennati. Of course, they wish she would have been born a boy just as they wished Amice, Ren's younger sister would also have been a boy. But, alas, they had two girls and were still very much happy and loving.

Growing up, she was delighted to have a sister only 2 years younger to play with. The two were inseparable and very much best friends. Both ended up picking up on their parents trade and became apprentices at the same time. Their parents, however, did not wish to be the ones to train them. If their children were to make a livelihood with something, they wanted to make sure whoever taught their children could do so impartially. So the two girls spent some time away from home in Lemos at the official woodcraft hall. It would be here that Rennati would be found by a search rider at the age of 16. It was an honor, and she knew it was, but it was the hardest decision she had to make because it meant leaving her sister and her family. She accepted though, and became a candidate for High Reaches Weyr. It was heartbreaking, during those two years when she would stand upon those sands and wish maybe this time it'll make things worth leaving home for. It was as if the world wanted to give her a reason to stick it out: the return of thread. Like most families, Rennati's didn't escape unscathed. Her father had been outside when thread began to fall and couldn't evade some of it fast enough. It fell on his dominant arm but those around him acted as quickly as they could which saved his life. His arm was amputated but he survived, much to Rennati's relief. The 17 year old wanted to leave the weyr and go home to be able to help take care of her family. Her family, however wished differently. Upon her sister's urging, they wanted Rennati to stay so that she could become a rider and fight the thread that made their father unable to work as he once had. It was difficult, but once more she agreed to stay and stand when called. Now, being away from her family isn't any easier and she still gets homesick. The strong urging from her family caused her to throw everything she had into becoming a rider. Along the way, she made some friends too which made things a little easier, though none of them would take the place of her sister, her best friend!

Blue Rouenth
Written by Masterharper
Colored by demon_pachabel



Origin of Name: Rouenth gets his name froma French legend of St. Romanus who was made Bishop of Rouen. The story says he delivered the country around Rouen from a monster called Gargouille or Goji. La Gargouille is said to have been the typical dragon with batlike wings, a long neck, and the ability to breathe fire from its mouth. It was said that he subdued the creature with a crucifix, or he captured the creature with the help of the only volunteer, a condemned man. In both stories, the monster is led back to Rouen and burned, but its head and neck would not burn due to being tempered by its own fire breath. The head was then mounted on the walls of the newly built church to scare off evil spirits, and used for protection.

Inspiration: Rouenth is based on the general monster, the Gargoyle.
These creatures are stone statues and grotesques built into the architecture of certain buildings. Often, they are capable of coming to life, whether through magic or possession by spirits or demons. Gargoyles are commonly depicted as appearing devilish or draconic, possessing horns and wings, claws, and sharpfangs. Even though they are made of stone, winged gargoyles are still capable of flight.

Gargoyle creatures are often utterly territorial, guarding the structures they were a part of and unable to leave those places. They may or may not be intelligent, and are sometimes only brought to life by sorcerers as protectors. In some cases they only come alive at night, and turn back to stone during the day; while other depictions have them waking up at will.

They're known to be able to fly, have great endurance, and often can take more damage (or even be impenetrable) against enemies. They also might have the ability to petrify another creature that they bite, and slowly turn them to stone.

Gargoyles are vulnerable against sunlight, and being unable to leave their home structures.

Personality: Rouenth is the sort of blue that has your back, and is always looking out for you. He is the sort of dragon that was born old, and is just a bit more mature than the rest. While his clutchmates play, this blue will keep guard over them, watching for any sign of trouble or danger. If anyone gets too close, he will likely rumble a warning; if any of his clutchsibs seem to find themselves in trouble, he will not hesitate to fix the situation however he can! If diplomacy and words don't work, than he will threaten and dominate as needed. This blue doesn't ever seem to tire. A natural watch-dragon, this blue is protective of those he loves, and anyone not in that circle will find a suspicious and wary dragon.

Rouenth is very physically strong. He is large, muscular, and will excel at feats of strength. He is not at all delicate, and knows how to take a hit. Carrying multiple passengers, or having him transport goods an wares will be simple for this blue. While some of his blue colored kin tire easily, Rouenth does not. Unfortunately, especially when he's little, this blue might not know his own strength and could wind up accidentally hurting others in his rough-housing or games. He will need to be extra gentle with delicate things. This blue is is also a mentally strong dragon -- he has excellent will-power when needed be, and isn't the sort to be manipulated or command. While he will follow a queen's command, if it's not one he agrees with, he will likely do so grudgingly.

Ultimately, Rouenth is here to become a capable and dependible blue. As he grows he will easily fall into place in the Wings. He isn't particularly ambitious, though with the right rider he could be. All he wants to do is to protect his Weyr, and his loved ones, to the best of his ability. He is a dark knight, here to serve. Any mission given him will be completed, any task asked of him will be followed and understood. He's not the sort of dragon that needs things explained in detail, and respects the authority and rank of those above him.

Unfortunately, this blue can be incredibly territorial. While there are a few in this clutch with such feelings, Rouenth is particularly aggressive. Those who come near to beings or things perceived as his will automatically be an assumed threat; growling, snarling, baring his fangs -- until they are put on a checklist of individuals that are to be accepted and trusted, he will not be a very nice blue. He would rather scare off strangers than keep them around, and if they cause a problem, he will not hesitate to drive off in whatever means necessary. No, he does not like strangers -- but he can warm up to them, especially if his rider vouches for them, or warns him ahead of time. Wherver Rouenth is stationed, he will adjust to the area being his. Western Weyr is his home, and he will guard it fiercely -- but if he transferred to High Reaches, or was stationed at a Hold, that would fall under his protection instead. Individuals are also wrapped up and tagged as either his, or not his, and those are not his had well better stay away from those that are his. Or else

This doesn't often win Rouenth friends, but it does make him a safe-haven for those who are in need of a guardian.

This territorial nature can also manifest in Rouenth being clingy. This blue will not want his rider out of his sight. This might prove to be one of their bigger hurdles, as the blue won't ever outgrow this desire and demand. The same will happen to any future mate. He is clingy, he is a bit possessive, and he doesn't do well distanced from his rider. So long as his rider is within his sight, or better yet, close to him, only then will the blue fully relax. Why he doesn't begrudge his rider duties or tasks, he doesn't always understand why they have to happen outside of his line of sight.

Lastly, Rouenth has slightly sensitive vision. He's not photophobic like watchwehrs, but he isn't always keen about the bright sunlight. Sunning on the ledge is not his favorite past-time -- he prefers to soak up the sunlight early in the morning, or late in the afternoon when it isn't high overhead and inescapable. Harsh, bright lights irritate the blue, and he seems to prefer being awake during the evenings and some of the night. Rouenth does better with glows than with candles, and will often prefer to sit in the shade than to hang out in direct sunlight. His rider will need to make sure he does get enough sunlight, though, else he might get bit ill.

Positive Traits: Strong, Vigilant, Capable
Negative Traits: Territorial, Slightly Photophobic, Clingy

Adult Size: 32'
Physical Attributes: Rouenth is a very large blue, but also quite elegant in his own way. He has a surprisingly long and graceful neck, with large wings, and large hands and feet that he never quite grew into. He has notably sharp claws that he preens over as one of his vanities.

Additional Notes: Rouenth loves to drink water. This dragon was Hatched thirsty, and seems to have a keen fondness for flying and playing n the rain. Beaches are always a hit, yes, but he does rather prefer chasing rainstorms -- perhaps a little nod towards his dam.

Additionally, Rouenth loves to be assigned watch-duty. To have an area to protect, and guard -- that is his favorite thing to do. It allows his vigilant nature to be ever satisfied, and the night watch will always be his his favorite shift.

He tends to keep an eye Loreleth, appreciates Konkavith, and enjoys playing with Seirath.

Theme Song: I'm Still Standing by Elton John
Why Me? Rennati, Rouenth is ready to be your castle. He is ready to be your fortress, where you can hide away, where you can never against worry about whether you've made the right choice. One thing they share in common is their need to be near someone, to be loved and wanted. Have no doubt that there will never be a moment where Rennati is truly alone, not with Rouenth in her life, and in her head. She'll have someone to talk over ideas with, someone to lean on, someone to trust. And he is so trustworthy. He needs her verve and affection. They are both inclined to working hard, and when a tough job needs doing, there is no doubt that they'll see it through as the partners that they truly are.

Name: V'Kenti
Age: 30
Sex: Male
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Weyr: High Reaches Weyr
Rider Rank: Wingleader of Tornado wing
Previous Rank/Craft: N/A
Physical Description: A man of average height, V'kenti has some hidden muscle in his slim build if one were to look closely enough they would notice. His black hair is kept short but long enough to run fingers through it and mess it up which is a common look for him. Early gray streaks can be found throughout but not too many, he's not salt&pepper yet! A thin face with strong cheekbones house kind hazel eyes. A characteristic lop-sided smile can be found from him as a side effect of biting his cheek when thinking.
Personality:

One of V'kenti's defining features is his ability to work in a team. He has a certain "can do" attitude that leads him to strive to do everything he can. If something is needed, he'll likely be one of the first to volunteer. As a bronze rider, he knows some things he's just going to have to do, regardless of if it's pleasant or not, and he's okay with that. Better him, who won't balk at something, than someone who would have issues getting the job done. This does not mean that he is immoral, and there are certainly a few things he may hesitate to do (very few) but in the end if he's ordered to do so, he'll do what's needed. In this way, he is very easy to teach. To him, there's no such thing as "you can't teach an old dog new tricks." He's not old to any extent but will never miss the opportunity to learn something. He can often be found with his nose in a book which has side effects of it's own.

With his nose always in a book and his general quiet nature, it often makes him a loner. While he has no problem working with people, things don't normally translate well outside of the job. He would tend to withdraw inside himself and Taka when some things get awkward. V'kenti can be a little over-attentive to things people say and do. He'll over think it and then it may be in the back of his head as he thinks about various things they could have meant. Acting on these thoughts is a completely different thing. They'll often stay just in his head as his job comes first and foremost but it does contribute to why he tends to just be alone.

In recent history, V'kenti and Takarath have bonded with a similar rider and dragon: Lestenna of gold Uridith. In, and through, her he has found a much more sensitive side with which he can have his work-a-holic lifestyle but also a semblance of a family. V'kenti's and Lestennas growing relationship as well as bonding with a few special young riders has allowed him to see that sometimes you can have your cake and eat it too, so to say.


Positive Trait List Teachable, cooperative, kind
Negative Trait List Loner, quiet, overly-attentive
History:

He was born a weyrbrat in the traditional High Reaches Weyr so he was able to utilize the ability to stand from an early age as their traditional values were never abandoned. Unfortunately for him, it would be a number of years before he would impress. Up until then, he would do anything people asked of him, in an almost over-eager way. He wanted to do everything he could because maybe, just maybe it would help him impress the net time. Whether it did or not he would never know.

At age 18, he impressed his similar in nature bronze. After becoming a wingrider, they would do whatever various jobs were passed their way, eager to do what was needed and excell at it. So, when thread returned to Pern, they along with the rest of the weyr, were ready. Dragon and rider agreed on much which aided their ability to fight thread as their was never any hesitation in what to do. Did the dragon lead or the rider? Both, would be their answer.

More recently, however, Takarath flew in Uridith's flight and won her favor. Both know the kind of thing this means and are willing to do whatever was necessary.

DRAGON

Name: Takarath
Age: 11
Color: Bronze
Wing Tornado
Size: 41'
Physical Description: Taka is easily described as average. Middle size for his color and doesn't excel at any one thing. Unofficial art
Personality: Taka can be described in a similar manner as his rider. He too will do almost everything that is asked to him, but has a much firmer line than V'kenti. He'll be more willing to say "Well, maybe not this time." Which can sometimes give V'kenti a way out of something he might not have known how to say "no" to. Taka is just as hard working and good at teamwork, if not better. He's not quite as much of a loner as his rider but is often forced towards it because of his rider's nature. Out of the two, he's the "social butterfly". Yet, he's still the strong and silent type, well, as strong as he can be. He's a dragon of few words and chooses his words carefully. A learned trait from how much V'kenti reads into everything.

With his rider almost exclusively, and maybe the rare other they bond with, he can make the off handed comment that could be described as humor. Sometimes, it's lost on V'kenti but that doesn't keep Taka from making them! Now that he was chosen by Uridith in her flight, he'll feel a certain protectiveness for someones other than V'enti. Perhaps not as much as Uridith but still more than he's used to!
