Physical Description of Persona:
Nosarre is tall and strong for her age, standing at 5'10'' with a lean, athletic build. Her skin is a light brown and she has sharp, angular features with high cheekbones and a slightly squared jaw, which gives her an air of confidence and determination.Her long, black hair is usually pulled back into a bun to keep it out of her face, though she knows she looks gorgeous when her curls frame her oval face. Her dark brown eyes seem to constantly observe everything around her.

She is a woman with a large wardrobe, and fixes up old clothes as a hobby. She loves creating something new out of something rough- that and familial pressure is why she apprenticed at the Smithcraft- and she loves keeping up with fashion trends. She loves her dresses and tunics and long winter coat. Her cosmetic routine is impeccable, and there is always an excuse for a dramatic lip line.

Emotional Description of Persona:
Nosarre is fiercely ambitious. She's always been driven, often setting herself apart from others with her focus. Too much focus. She has lists. She has priorities. She doesn't waste time on frivolities; if she's not learning or working, it's not worth doing. Her confidence sometimes veers into arrogance, but it's not without merit; she is highly skilled and sharp witted, in a 'gifted kid that never learned how to study' kind of way. Order is important, there's a way to do things, and she gets agitated if anything veers off her carefully laid plans.

She can be remarkably cold and stubborn, but beneath her tough exterior, Nosarre is deeply loyal to those she considers her friends or family. She's ready to throw hands over any kind of slight. Her greatest fear is failure, and she puts a lot of pressure on herself to succeed. This anxiety can make her push herself too hard.

History of Persona:
Born and raised in River Bluff Weyr, Nosarre has big plans. Dragonriding runs in her family. Her brothers Impressed. Foster-sibs, too. Her father, a renowned bronzerider in his own right, set impossible standards for her and his other children. Honor and duty and common sense were drilled into her head at a very young age and Nosarre, once an eager, biddable child, was molded into an intense, driven teenager. She stood at a few Hatchings, off and on, but there was hardly a point without a gold egg on the Sands, and even when there was, none looked her way. She focused instead on saving up enough marks to purchase a firelizard egg, and all her work eventually paid off with a shiny bronze firelizard at her beck and call.

She elected to follow her father and friends to Dragonsfall after River Bluff collapsed, and continued to work hard at her craft lessons. She officially walked the tables and gave up dreams of Impressing a queen.

That is, until Chioneth laid her first gold egg. All bets are off now, and that gold is going to be _hers_.

Dragon's Name: Kiziolth
Dragon's Age: 1
Dragon's Colour: Green
Next Mating Flight: m10 d3 of turn 12
Description of Dragon:
Kiziolth is a warm jade green, and when properly oiled she gleams like polished stone in the sunlight, as though her very color is trying to outshine the less vivid (and boring) greens around her. She is small, even for a green, with delicate, almost fragile-looking limbs that give her a dainty appearance, until she moves. Then, her grace is undone by her gangly awkwardness. It will take a while for her to understand how all her limbs work and how to use them. She trips over her own feet and wings, overshoots landings, and misjudges the occasion wingbeat, sending her tumbling. If she were human, she might blush after every stumble, but instead, her eyes whirl with frantic shades of yellow as she scrambles to right herself, offering an apologetic croon.

Her awkwardness isn't limited to the physical. Kiziolth has a personality that could be described as endearingly over-eager (if you're feeling kind). She is a dragonet who tries too hard, desperate to earn every scrap of approval from her rider. She strives to be exactly what Nosarre wanted in a dragon, knowing full well that she can't ever change the part that matters most. Nosarre's lukewarm indifference leaves her perpetually striving for an affection that may never come. Still, Kiziolth’s optimism remains remarkably intact. She convinces herself that this next feat; this perfect glide, this flawless drill, will finally win her rider’s approval.

She has a childlike innocence about her, and a determination that borders on heartbreaking. She doesn’t realize that her exuberance and clumsiness, while frustrating to Nosarre, make her utterly charming to those around her. Her shining optimism hides the faintest edge of sadness, though, one that grows more visible as Nosarre’s indifference grates against her boundless enthusiasm. It’s a crack in her otherwise radiant jade exterior; a tiny fissure threatening to widen with every curt dismissal or sharp word. Still, she persists, her spirit as bright and unyielding as her hide.

Pets

Wrentley, Bronze Firelizard: aged 4, hatched m13 d12
A distinguished, rusty-bronze gentleman. Nosarre takes exceptional care of the beast and it has lived a spoiled, if intensely structured, life. He runs messages well and is very attentive to Nosarre's moods, whether she needs little tasks done or just an emotional support firelizard. He especially enjoys second dinner, and knows that when she's preoccupied he can convince her he hasn't eaten in ages.
