Physical Appearance:
Cassondra is tall and slim, but her body is packed with wiry muscle. She is often is said to remind many of a cat ready to pounce. She is always on her guard – always alert. Her messy, short cropped blond hair is often aloud to grow long before its cut just to make it easier to deal with in the long run and so that she does not have to cut it as often as she would otherwise. Her skin is pale, but with a faint flush to the cheeks, giving her heart – shaped face, with its high cheekbones, an almost fanciful cast. Her fingernails tend to be rather long, but when she is nervous, she will chew them. She doesn’t become nervous too often, normally being calm and collected, but when she does, it’s a habit she hasn’t broken. Her eyes are a sharp blue – bright cobalt, to be exact. They tend to dart here or there as she is always on her guard. Generally Cassondra wears practical clothes when there is little reason to wear others. Normally these are suited to what she will be doing that day, and if nothing special is happening, then they’re just comfortable. However, she will wear a dress to gathers and other such events. If she does wear a dress, generally cobalt blue with gold or white edging.

But for all her beauty, Cassondra has a particular flaw. Her scar, which she herself does not see as a flaw, but her mother never could help but see. This scar mottles the shape of her right cheek bone. It is far smaller now than it was when she was 10 Turns old and first received it. She actually loves this little scar – despite how much it had hurt when she first got it.

Personality: (At least one paragraph; preferably more)
Cassondra has always been more aloof than anything else. She tends to be rather quiet and does not waste her words. She is an individual and would prefer to remain that way, not being part of a bigger entity outside of her elf and Hasth. Despite this tendency, however Cassondra is incredibly protective of people when they are in danger or distress. She is especially tends to protect those who are younger than her. She is very selective about who she chooses to be friends with, this particular group always remaining small.

Cassondra will more often smile to show that she has heard what you’ve said or understands, but can be very congenial if you catch her attention, she is in a good mood, finds you interesting, or you are one of her few friends or potential friends. She prefers not to waste words unless they should prove to be useful towards some purpose, generally one that is useful for more than just her.

Cassondra is fully capable of being good with people when she wants to or has reason to. She is over all, very composed and put together most of the time, keeping up appearances for those around her and for the sake of herself. Despite her composure, she often becomes very upset if someone is hurt. She does have the well hidden soft sport for those in need, whether it be for injury or for friendship and support. She has the capacity to be very mothering.

Cassondra is very strong willed, clever, and intelligent. She fights for everything she wants and never backs down, which, despite her claims to the contrary, is proof of her stubborn nature. She will keep fighting for it and going after it no matter how long it takes. Even if it may take Turns.

History:

Cassondra resided and grew up at Fort Hold Hold for most of her life, but about six Turns ago her family moved to Alietras Hold. There she was quite happy with her family – her mom, her dad, and her six older and one younger brother. Cassondra’s mother had always wanted a daughter and was very pleased when Cassondra was born… But to her dismay, she proved to be a tomboy as soon as she was old enough to walk. She learned all kinds of bad habits from her brothers and father, who encouraged her.

She and her brothers would often ride runnerbeasts, though not all of them together, but, perhaps one or two of them at a time. It was when she was 10 – Turns – Old and she and her dad were out riding, than Cassondra’s runnerbeast startled and she fell. She hit her cheek hard enough on an unseen rock to cause a relatively large gash, which then healed into the scar that now marks her face. The scar did not bother her. In fact, she rather liked it because she felt it made her look more like the tomboy she was.

Cassondra loved her mom, but her mom was truly upset at the mark… And that is when her mother convinced her dad that she needed to be taught to be a proper, calm, and well taught young lady – not some ruffian as her brothers tended to be. This changed Cassondra deeply. She became more stoic and aloof. She didn’t like it. But, she grew into who she is now.

However, it was only a short time after her 16th birthday that her mother passed away in child birth, leaving Cassondra and her father with a little boy named Cassian. Her brothers, three of them with families of their own could not help them care for the child… But the child was sick at birth and passed away when he was only a few months old. Cassondra never dealt with either loss overly well… Especially the loss of her younger brother, who she had come to think of as her own in the few months that she had been the one to primarily care for him. Her mother’s death had not been very surprising, considering how old she was when she had given birth to Cassian. Her father is a very old man now who does his best to care for all of the younger members of his family, and Cassondra tried to help him before she was Searched, but he is one man and she, despite everything, is a Rider who cannot always be there to help, though she does go back to visit her family from time to time.

Cassondra was 117 Turns-Old when she was searched but did not Impress until she was 19. She was more than happy to be searched, though, at the time, it took some convincing for her father to allow her to go. In the end, he did give his blessing. Cassondra stood at Eynalth’s last clutch where she Impressed to Green Hasth.

When Cassondra Impressed to Hasth, she was nearly mauled by another Green. However, Hasth did not allow this. She had spotted Cassondra shortly before the Green went after her, saying Cassondra Mine! You’re Hasth will not let this be! With that, Hasth jumped at the other Green and started to fight with her, ending up with a scar near her eye, though not harming it, and on her shoulder… Before the other Green ran off, tired of the fight, leaving the other Hasth hissing at her for a moment before demanding Cass take her and feed her. Both Greens had their respective injuries, but both were okay and not seriously injured.

Cassondra has repeatedly been surprised by Hasth. Hasth is both like her and far different from her, though she is far more friendly to others than she herself tends towards being. It is sometimes difficult for her to completely get along with Hasth due to both their differences and similarities. Hasth can be a handful and often drags Cass into all kind of situations she rather not deal with.

Hasth flew and was caught by Moruth, which was a good outcome for A'lik, Cassondra, Hasth, and Moruth. They seem to be happy weyrmates so far. She has also recently attached a new color: the first orange flitter to be recorded.

Dragon



Name:
Hasth
Color:
Green Clutcher
(00FF33)
Size:
27 feet
Age:
2 Turns
Clutch Parents:
Gold Eynalth and Bronze Cherith

Physical Appearance:
Hasth is about average size for a Green. Her hide is a bright, chipper looking green color which seems to get darker at the end of her tail, near her feet, and at her muzzle. She bares a couple of scars on her shoulder and one below her eye from the day of her Hatching. She is slender and sleek in build.

Personality: (At least one paragraph)
Hasth is very regal for a green. She, even on the day of her Hatching, carried herself as a Queen. Hasth is very protective of her Rider and those her Rider loves. She tends to be somewhat manipulative and cunning at times. She can be very vain, but she is very outgoing.

Hasth is rather flirtatious. However, she loves to play acting games and if Cass doesn’t want her to do something or does want her to do something, it is very simple just to get her to play one and have her do what you want. She is rather intelligent for a Green, and knows a enough to pull what she doesn’t know or doesn’t remember from Cassondra, even if it means she needs to ask.

Hasth has a bit of a short attention span at times, but when she really needs to or finds something particularly interesting, it is hard to take her attention away from it, which can drive her Rider crazy.

She is a very sweet Green with a big heart who is very good at telling when others are upset and showing interest or trying to be funny in order to cheer them up.
