Physical Description of Persona:
Cirina is a fairly tall girl who inherited her mother’s light gray eyes and wavy red hair that she tends to keep in messy buns. She has a bright smile that she wears often, and tans surprisingly well for someone with red hair. With the exception of the hair, which doesn’t always bend to her whims, she is a very tidy looking young woman, her clothes rarely wrinkled and never stained.

Emotional Description of Persona:
Cirina is cheerful and friendly, and has the self-confidence of a young woman who grew up loved and supported. She’s grown up knowing enough ‘important’ people that she’s more comfortable than perhaps she should be in the presence of important people, but she gets away with it by being generally polite and well-mannered. She’s fairly clever and has done well in all of her studies so far, though learning isn’t really a passion for her. She likes to know enough about things to do them well enough, but doesn’t have a head for figures or memorizing dates. A fan of music, she’s always eager to go to gathers or other places where she can see new performances. She’s good with children and adores her little siblings, at least in small to moderate doses.

History of Persona:
Originally from River Bluff Weyr, Cirina moved to Dolphin Cove with her mother after the disaster that destroyed her first home. The daughter of a greenrider and a brownrider, Cirina spent the first part of her life just waiting until she was old enough to Impress. As time has dragged by and hatchings have come and gone, a little bit of worry has slipped in, but she tries not to let it show, maintaining a pleasant, happy attitude. She’s a weyrbrat through and through, and she knows Dolphin Cove weyr like the back of her hand, including all the shortcuts and hidden places weyrbrats learn to sneak to.

She might have turned her attention to working with the dolphins- she certainly likes them, but she’s never been all that fond of all the swimming involved in that. Instead, her craft training has been in the harper line of work, and she has a pleasant enough voice, and a good ear for music.

Lately, she’s considered whether she might ask for a transfer- perhaps she’d have better luck with hatchings elsewhere, but she’s made Dolphin Cove her home, and she doesn't want to leave it.

Dragon's Name: Saejith
Dragon's Age: 0
Dragon's Hatching Date: m13 d20
Dragon's Colour: Blue
Description of Dragon:
Saejith is remarkable only in his bland unremarkableness. He’s a perfectly average sized blue with a mottled grey-blue hide that only really shines immediately after a good oiling, most of the time looking more like a dreary boulder than a lovely blue dragon. Luckily for him, his rider is eager to indulge him in a more frequent bathing and oiling schedule than most of his peers adhere to. His care is clearly immaculate- hide polished, teeth cleaned, nails neatly cared for and straps always pristine.

Saejith is spoiled. There’s no meanness or malice to it, but he is a dragon who wants to be pampered paired with a rider happy to do it. He comes across as having a better memory than his peers, but it’s really a lack of boundaries with his rider. He rifles through her thoughts constantly and he’s quick to claim her thoughts and feelings as his own- Cirina’s friends are his friends, her enemies his enemies. Criticism will roll off him- he lacks the intense arrogance of his sire, but knows in his bones that he is enough. If they make a mistake, they will do better next time, there’s no point in being upset about it.

Pets

Digger, Brown Firelizard: aged 4, hatched m6 d1
Digger is a well behaved little brown. He's a very dark colored brown with no real markings. He has a habit of rooting around for shiny objects or treats, which resulted in the affectionate nickname that has now become a permanent name.
