Nickname: Zora
Gender: female
Age: 18
Orientation: Bisexual equally
Rank: Alpha Tamer
Wing/Pack: WIP
Personality:
Rambunctious, Foreward, Happy, Talkative, Short-term memory, Laid-Back, Afraid of Water
Zora is an outgoing individual to be honest. She always wants to get out there and have fun, not caring about the consequences usually. In fact, at times Zoranille can get down right rebellious. She hates the word "no" and will stop at nothing to prove she can't be controlled. Because of this attitude, Zora often gets into trouble, but she takes it all in with a laid-back attitude. So she has a few extra chores? Oh well, so be it. The girl is quite forward when flirting and seldom holds back her own opinions. This is especially when others are wrong in her mind. The rider can't stand someone being wrong, or "wrong", and must correct them.
As one can probably guess, Zoranille also is a talkative girl. However, for someone so easily taken to social life, she doesn't need it. Zora can be just as content sitting somewhere with her canine and dragon, as she would be in a large group. Not to say that she can go forever without others, but a little here and there is sometimes even preferred. The one odd thing about Zora is she is terrified of water. Since she was young and almost drowned, the girl will not go anywhere close to water and stays away. This kind of behavior probably will never change, and only does a tiny bit during baths. In that case she generally uses the shallowest area where she can stand and it only comes to her calves.
Appearance:
One of the first things someone will notice about Zora is that she looks young and sweet. Innocent even in a way. She has a heart-shaped face that's slightly rounded with a childish angle, and in that are dainty features. A small nose, decently proportioned lips and eyes also are easily recognized features. She most definitely is her sister's sibling, with similar ethreal looks and chestnut brown hair. Zora often will either have it down or back in braids, the latter generally during festivities.
At about 5ft 2, Zora isn't the tallest girl in the Weyr by any means. She however enjoys her petite body and likes that it can fit in spaces that no one else can. That means she can explore the nooks and corridors of Rebirth easier than most. Like her sister, Zoranille's body is slim and willowy, though perhaps a bit more curved than Akilu's. Her body is often clad in tunics of pale earth colors, and darker pants. Zora will wear jewelry often, but always the same pieces. A necklace seen in the above picture that has a stone. A few armbands made of leather and beads, and on occasion an anklet of some sort.

History:
Parents:
Zora's parents met at a young age. Her mother was a holdbred girl among the cavern, and her father was the 4th son of the "Lord Holder" there. They grew up together, and it was no wonder that even after her mother became a fully fledged healer she chose to marry Zora's father. It wasn't long after that they had a baby girl, Akilu, then another which would become Zoranille 4 turns later.
Childhood:
Growing up was simple enough for Zora and Akilu. She had a free-reign of the hold, or so she liked to think. The rebellious, free girl and her older sister were much the same and soon the harpers at the Hold that taught them became worried. For girls of their stature and breed they were acting like weyrbrats! Teaching them firm lessons in etiquette was tedious work, but slowly Akilu and Zora learned. Akilu was the one surprisingly though that succumbed finally. Zora refused to and was sent away to live with her uncle where the Weyrfolk lived.
Candidacy:
At first she stood for dragons. However, even in this she would cause problems and rebel. She didn't like to be controlled, and in fact strained every time it happened. Zora stole occasionally from the kitchens, made messes of the barracks, and even snuck into the boy's barracks as a candidate. All in all she was unable to attend her first few hatchings, and learned slowly from her mistakes.
Her first hatching:
Finally one turn at the age of 16 she was behaving well enough that she was allowed to stand for one. She had missed her first three, and they were about to kick her out of standing when she finally shaped up. At the sands Zora held her breath at every impression, but gradually got more and more unhappy as the dragonets didn't choose her. When one Emerald in particular snorted in her face and chose someone else, she cried out unhappily and said a few choice words. The Emerald turned on her though she had just impressed, and mauled Zoranille, leaving behind a long scar on her side.
Going back:
After that Zora wanted to go home to the Hold portion of the caverns. She didn't want a sharding dragon after being attacked by one. Hurt physically and pridefully, Zora only grew worse when her parents didn't allow her to come home. They were already upset with her sister for impressing, now they wanted nothing to do with their other daughter either.
Candidacy try number two:
Upset with her mother and father, and unwilling to see her sister again after impressing a creature she hadn't herself, Zora went to the Serpent Halls. She hadn't been there much, and had heard about the beautiful lagoon that the females clutched in. It sounded wonderful, and she soon found her way in the dark. The moon glinted above from a crack in the stone walls, and the water shimmered with the eggs in a shallow corner. The deeper portion that broke off underwater into more submerged caverns was empty. The mother going to feed nearby momentarily. Zoranille crept over to the eggs and reached out to touch one as it jerked up to meet her fingertips.
Impression to Zorasn:
The water broke at the moment her fingertips brushed the slimy surface of the nearest egg. Crying out, Zora fell backwards against the stone floor. Her eyes widened as she saw the Silver serpent above her. Though the rest of her snake-like body was underwater, the wings and head were arched over the eggs and the female hissed at the intruder. In her head the female spoke harshly. Intruder leave! Intruder is not welcome! My eggs, mine not intruder's!
The Silver thrashed about back and forth in anger. Holding out her hands to show she meant no harm, Zora eyed the eggs. They were all rocking back and forth now, showing signs of hatching. "They're going to break out any second!" The girl knew that the candidates would come soon followed by some tamers. This was a wild Silver, one that had decided to nest in the lagoon. It wasn't entirely uncommon. The Queen hissed again and wavered like a predator ready to strike out and kill her.
It was then that the first of the eggs hatched. It was the largest of all of them for sure, and the bright silver muzzle that appeared was a curious thing. The little Queen crooned at her mother who hissed back at Zora. The girl took a step forward though. The serpent was beautiful, and so much different than a dragonet. The little Queen turned to the girl then, and immediately the mother stopped her objections. In that odd way mother's have, she knew that this one was meant for her daughter. The silver swam up gracefully despite her age to Hers and nuzzled against Zora's outstretched hand. ZoranilleMine. Your Zorasn, here now and forever more.

Gender: Female
Age: 2 and a half turns
Type: Silver Serpent
Color:
Body- C1CDCD
Markings- 838B8B
Personality:
Zorasn is all about being polite. She will never put herself before someone else, especially never Hers. It simply goes against everything she stands for. On top of this, Zorasn was born to be a mother. The silver is very protective of her eggs whenever she clutches and is wary of anyone getting too close.
Zorasn is also optomistic. She never is negative about anyone or anything and strives to see the good side to people. Out of any Zilver Serpent one might normally see, Zorasn is perhaps the tamest and calmest one. She has a calming aura in general, and can be relaxing to hear speak.
Appearance:
Zorasn’s hide is a satin like light silver. A darker silver sheen tinges her body, and becomes more apparent on her underside and around her eyes. The silver’s wings are a darker shade as well, and are slightly translucent. As with all serpents, the female has swirling eyes that are facetted. Generally they are a mixture of turquoise, cyan, and a light jade green. When upset though, they will also be tinged maroon or scarlet.
Mind Voice:
Zora come. I want to swim, swimming's good. Zora never fear water with me here.
The voice is gentle and sweet. It rings in your head like a bell, echoing even after the dragon has fallen silent. She'll often put a laugh on the ends of her sentences, or something else that lightens the tone. When the serpent is being protective though, the voice becomes ice cold and harsh. The words will become clipped as well, and a chill creeps over to the person being spoken to generally.
