Name: Theora
Age: 19 Turns
Appearance: Theo is, to put it bluntly, extremely attractive. Shapely, with long, silky white-blonde hair, she stands at a slender 5'6". Her eyes are dark blue and narrow, seeming slightly slanted and "oriental" in shape. She does not look at all like someone who could handle a tantruming runner, but she is considerably stronger than she appears.
Personality: More like a typical Goldrider than like a Mistrider, Theo is stubborn and proud, and can be extremely manipulative. She is fully aware of how attractive she is and will use her natural charms to get what she wants. As an accomplished actress she has no problem in convincing her latest victim that every word of what she says is absolutely true. She is highly suspicious of people, and is not easily befriended, but if you manage to win either her friendship personally or her support of your causes, she is a powerful ally by sheer force of will and wily nature. All animals adore her, and she is often found with a wild creature that usually remains unseen by humans. Though runners are her absolute favorites of the normal domesticated animals, she loves all creatures regardless. Except men. Theo has a strong dislike for men. They're more like dirt, actually- they don't deserve to be called animals. Animals are faaaar better. As a sidenote, for Theo's entire life she has had the misfortune of 'hearing voices' in her head. When she mentioned this, she was, of course, punished for either lying or being crazy (the latter a hanging offense according to her 'normal' family), and she has never mentioned it to anyone ever again.
History: Theora, whose parents didn't care to have a girlchild- especially not a nutter who heard voices- and therefore dropped her off to work and avoided her as much as possible, grew up taking care of a well-off Holder's runners. When she was ten, the Holder's son noticed her budding beauty, and her parents made quite the lovely offer to marry her off to him for a tidy sum. This offer was accepted, and Theo was all set to become a wealthy trophy wife. She tolerated this state of things for three turns, at which point she took an opportunity and beat her husband over the head with a jar and ran. She never stopped to find out if she'd killed or merely stunned him, and she has never particularly cared, since he was, to put it mildly, not a very nice person in general. She was Searched when she turned up at the Weyr, and Impressed to Lykath. When the slaughter occured, she was not the least bit worried about her family or that of her former husband, and does not care if they are alive or dead. The thing that Theo misses the most, what drew Lykath to her, is the chance to have a normal childhood with a family who loved her.
Companions: None
Rule Remark: oh, the shininess, think fast
Dragon Name and Color: Mist Lykath
Dragon Appearance: Lykath's hide is a gently swirling mix of dark and light blues, violets, and silvers, with no greens to break the pattern. She is small for her color, only 146 feet long.
Dragon Personality: Lykath is quiet, but perceptive. She is an expert at pinpointing what someone is thinking and transfers the information to her bonded, and this gives people the uncanny impression that the new Weyrwoman can read minds. She refuses to eat wherries, because she says they taste bad. She loves to sneak up on other dragons and scare them, an odd habit for a Queen who is supposed to be regal. She also enjoys taunting people.
