Envyrish
Username: Admin (Atra)
Character Number: 1 (going to be replacing old #1)Name: Envyrish (En-veer-rish) aka En, Envy or Rish
Age: 25 Turns
Rank: Sr. Weyrwoman
Weyr: Tarin Weyr
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual
PB:Katerina Graham
Appearance:
Envyrish is a rather short woman, coming in at 5 foot even. She has dark skin and black hair. Her eyes are a dark brown color. She is rather sturdily built, though she does have shape to her still. Her face is heart shaped with a wider forehead than chin. Her lips are full and a nice, even pink color. Her eyes are a rather nice almond shaped with dark eyelashes which curl back to make her eyes look very open and alert. Her face is express, some would say almost too expressive and disapproving looks are not uncommon from the 25-Turn old.
She can look like the cold, prideful and commanding dictator that she pretends to be. But amongst friends and loved ones, they know a very different face of Envyrish. The kind, gentle young woman that was taught to be a ruthless leader. Her stance is always proud, however, and her expression never softens when in public except with certain people she is to play a part with. She always looks the leader and never lets anyone see her as weak if she can help it.
Personality:
To say that Envyrish is a complex personality is like saying that a leopard has spots. It's a fact that sticks out like a sore thumb. Envyrish shows one face to the world around her and another to her friends and family. She shows what she needs to. She has a great knack for showing people what they need to see. However... that doesn't mean that she actually feels what she shows the world. Her smiles are false much of the time.
Because of the way she has lived, Envyrish is a very good liar. It is one of her many faults. Lying comes with great ease that it is easy to lie to herself sometimes. She'll tell herself "I'm happy." She believes it, but those closest to her, though they are few, likely know better. She cares about those around her and she knows she does, but she is capable of making herself believe that she doesn't.
Envyrish can be rather jealous of those around her lucky enough to be in good relationships or have love as she does not feel thawt is an option for herself so long as she is the Tarin Werywoman and a secret traitor. After all, what hope does she have of having someone she can really trust that much.
She is kind to the young and to those who hurt, but nto when under the watchful gaze of her subordinates, making her come off as cold. The young don't often understand why... but those who are older do. Quite well in fact as they feel the disdain that she show readily shows in the face of the crowd and in the faces of those who follow her at Tarin. For the sake of the Weyr's safety and her own.Alluroth

Bonded's Age: 11 Turns
Bonded's Personality:
If there is one word which describes Alluroth overall, it is proud. She is a proud queen who holds her head high and carries herself with what she considers brilliant beauty and ability. She is beauty in and of itself in her own right. No one could tell her differently. Her pride may cause her to get into fights with other dragoness' and was, in part, only fuel to the flames of the now dead grayscale's hate.
Alluroth, however, is also incredibly mothering and kind. She is a strange dragon who recognizes each of her children and treats them all more specially and more importantly than any other dragons. Though she knows what to tell and what not to tell. She can often be snide and condescending, though she will try to be a respectful, graceful, true queen. But it doesn't really matter. After all, she is. She can be whatever she wants to be as well as she wants to be.
Alluroth is definitely a polygamist queen, always choosing a different dragon every time she rises or every other time at the very least as she will often become bored with a male very quickly.
Bonded's Appearance:
Alluroth is often considred a very interesting dragon, what with being a gold grayscale. she is a large dragoness coming in at nearly half a foot longer than most queens. They say it is the grayscale in her. She is a dragoness of many colors, but her base is a light buttery white-gold color while her wings are white, gray and silver edged with a true gold. Her paws have gray socks and gray rings line her legs. She has white markings on her stomach and head and an intricate face mast edged with a pinkish-gold color in a gray which has the slightest blue tint to it. Her tail is lined with white as well.
Now, aside from all of this... Alluroth has some scars on her flanks, tail, front legs, and jaws from her fight with the grayscale that ended in her victory and what would have been a much better clutch had she been able to fly freely.Pets: NoneHistory
With every story comes a beginning. And with every beginning comes an end. When my story began, there was an end.In my hands
A legacy of memories
I can hear you say my name
I can almost see your smile
Feel the warmth of your embrace
But there is nothing but silence now
Around the one I loved
Is this our farewell?
The youngest daughter of the Weyrleader of Antaris and a holdborn, weyrfolk mother in the 10th month of the turn 4377 on the seventh day, was born. Her name would be Envyrish. But every beginning also is an ending. In this case, it was an ending for her mother whom she would not see but in her vague memories of the woman in the crèche. A woman she was not supposed to know as her mother - who was spited, even by her father. Her mother had been searched and not impressed - a holdborn girl who was was worse than useless and left in the Weyr as perceived scum. But she was kind. And gentle. Envyrish loved her. But, too soon, the woman was found dead, presumably by her own hand one day... and that was the day that the beautiful woman with raven black hair in her memories... disappeared forever.
It was only her father and the Weyrwoman who barely paid her any mind, who hardly saw her as any better than her mother. She was not her child. She was that holdborn's child. And she showed sympathy to them. What use was such a child to her, Katalia of Gold Bivath. The girl would grow and she would learn. She felt sympathy for those around her who were looked down on. At the age of 13 she was old enough to stand, but the Weyrwoman did not want to let her because of her softness towards the holdborns. And that is how her image began to be sahped. Her desire to stand was great enough to make her act as the others did. The ones that the Weyrwoman approved. The Weyrwoman did not believe her at first, but slowly... the girl started to prove herself in the woman's eyes. Though, secretly, when no one looked and in teh dead of night, she showed mercy and gave to those who were looked down upon. Her desire to help them was still there. But she could do nothing as she was. That was what she believed. She was just a meaningless girl of the Weyr who's father, despite all that was said and done around him, did his best to erase the very fact that her mother had been holdborn from the minds of her peers and the Weyrwoman.
It was not until she was 15 Turns and after standing in the shadow of her father and the schooling of his mate, Bivath's rider, that she was allowed to stand for the clutch of a young grayscale queen who had, on the sands with her, a queen egg, beautiful and gleaming with white and gold, silver, and gray markings which swirled in dust clouds of beauty and pattern. Eggs of all colors surrounded it. On the day of the touching. Envyrish though that her head might explode from the swirls of bright colors. The clutch was predominated by yellows, pinks, reds, and neon greens - all the shells beautiful and sparkling.
She touched everyone, taking her time beside each egg. She paid her respects to the queen egg and, as was expected of her, she spent more time with it than with the others - as all the girls who were weyrborn, though the holdborn girls were even discouraged from approaching it. No one wanted a holdborn queen rider.
It came the day of the hatching. It was beautiful and full of spectators from the three Weyrs - including Tarin who's Weyrwoman was growing old and who had only one queen as a tragic accident in battle had taken the life of their younger rider. There would be a queen sent from Antaris for them soon along with another, younger rider who would be trained by her. But no one knew who that would be as of yet.
The hatching would start with a haze green that cracked her shell in a sudden burst and rushed over to the female candidates, knocking over and mauling those in her way. Envyrish tried to stay out of her way, watching as nearby candidates were taken by her... including males as she moved that way. But the haze would be on the sands for some time as brothers and sisters hatched who interrupted her fun and paid the price for it. Envyrish had the hardest time staying still and just watching... and thus she didn't. A small teal was on the sands, pinned beneath the claws of the larger green... and the girl approached her, throwing her body wait against the haze, forcing her away to some degree. But it would be a mistake. She was prepared for the young dragoness to rip into her... only to hear something from behind her as the queen she had not noticed hatch landed on the back of the green tearing into her with vigor... until the hatchling went creeling between, leaving a gold dragoness with grayscale coloring standing over her. Faranth. She was scared. But the gold-grayscale did nothing but gently nuzzle the girl. You are brave, My Envyrish, but you are also foolish. You must protect yourself. You must be proud! As I, Alluroth, am proud! We are protectors, but we are not foolish. It is we who come first. After all... who else could protect us? She hissed at a passing grayscale-king who was larger than she. He had no right to think he could protect her! He was lucky she did not maim him.
Envyrish blinkedand stroked the queen's eye ridges.
It is time I eat. Come.
Time would pass after that day and they were trained - quite rigorously at that. And they worked hard, though, admittedly, Alluroth did complain quite a bit along the way. But, when the time came and the Weyrwoman of Tarin Weyr passed, it was Envyrish and her young gold- grayscale, then only a Turn, chosen to go to the Weyr where an older rider already resided - a grayscale rider who, if she flew first, would take the title of Sr. Weyrwoman as favored by the then Weyrwoman Acola of Grayscale Marth, having taken over for Bivath's rider when the woman had retired. It was a rare site to have a grayscale assend to the position of Weyrwoman... but Envyrish and Alluroth would have their own problems to worry about as the current queenrider of the Weyr was none-to-pleased with her arrival. Her queen had flown not too long ago before the Sr. Queen's death and had produced a small clutch. She held a great deal of spite for the rider of the cross-colored dragon. For several reasons. One being that it would seem that because her dragon was closer to gold, she might be overruled and made Jr. by the leaders of Antaris. Or... what if the girl’s queen flew before her own grayscale could?
A turn would pass and the grayscale rider's fears would come to pass as the young gold-grayscale did indeed rise, though being foolish, she did not take her grayscale away, risking that perhaps, her grayscale would be able to kill the other queen, her want for power so much greater and overruling than her sense of judgment. However, the young Alluroth in her maiden flight would take on the grayscale in her flight and win. Her first clutch would harden on the sands - not as large as it could have been and a new Weyrwoman would rise in Tarin.
However, despite the appearances that Envyrish put on to avoid Antaris' prying eye and the suspicion of loyalists at Tarin, she found those who sympathized with the holders and with the Renegades as she did and very carefully, offered what little help she could. The Holders being easier to help than the Renegades. Some may find that, at Tarin Hold, the Holders are treated better... not that most dragonriders usually venture far from the Weyr. This is how Envyrish is able to maintain her appearance to Antaris in great part.
Alluroth has risen four times and has skipped a turn now, causing Tarin to worry as Alluroth is currently their only queen. However, with now showing signs of rising, the great gold-grayscale queen may yet bring great relief and pride to Tarin Weyr. There are many riders who are waiting on the day she flies in order that they might catch her and become a leader there, though it is the smallest of the three Weyrs.
