physical description:
Kia is petite, standing at five feet even. She has a thin, athletic build as a result of being first a jockey and then a dragonrider. Although she is short, she holds herself confidently with her head held high. She has brown hair, which she wears to her shoulders or longer and ties up when she needs to for riding. Her eyes are a warm chocolate brown. Kia has a tan complexion and gains color easily in the sun. Not one for fancy clothes, she dresses practically unless the occasion calls for something more dressy. Most often she is seen in her riding leathers.
personality: Kia is a friendly, outgoing person, always willing to lend a hand or an ear. A good listener, she enjoys helping people with their problems and giving advice. Generally open minded, she tries not to judge people before getting to know them. If someone does cross her, however, she has a fiery temper and she can hold a mean grudge. Kia is not someone who is afraid to let her feelings known. If something upsets her, she complains. Loudly. And when she is angry, she has to let it out, whether that means punching a pillow or a person.
One of the things that is most likely to make her angry is when people underestimate her just because she is a woman. She considers herself a fighting rider and no way inferior to the male Blue riders. Anyone who dares suggest otherwise will face her wrath. Kia isn't a total tomboy, but she is no meek and mild maiden, either. She likes to do a lot of more masculine things, like hunting felines and racing runners. On the other hand, she also loves to cook.
history: Kia was born in Crooked River Hold, the second child and first daughter of her family. Her brother, Zarian, is two turns older. Her family specialized in the breeding of prize runnerbeasts for racing. As a child Kia was always around runners and she grew to love the animals. She was an adventurous child and a tomboy, a characteristic which her mother tolerated and her father encouraged.
Like her father, she wanted to work with runners, but not as a breeder. Kia was more interested in riding and training. When she was thirteen, she rode in her first race. She started out small, with just races within the Hold. Then, she caught the eye of Lord Bilteran, and at age sixteen she was invited to jockey one of his runnerbeasts in a race. When she won that race, she was given the job permanently, racing at Gathers across the southern continent.
On her travels she met a Journeyman Vintner, Jefyr, at Ryuu Hold. They hit it off at the Gather and they were definitely interested in each other. Kia started visiting the Hold on her own time, and a courtship developed. It seemed like a betrothal was in her future.
Then, a bout of cloudlung swept through Ryuu, and Jefyr was one of the victims. Kia also caught the disease, but she survived. Jefyr did not, She was at his bedside when the man passed away. Kia was devastated, and she became angry and cynical. When a Search dragon noticed her, she agreed to become a candidate, thinking that she didn't have anything to lose.
It turned out to be her salvation, because at that Hatching she Impressed to Blue Merequith. Suddenly, life seemed bright again. Kia's spirits continued to improve through weyrling training. Although she still missed Jefyr, she realized that Impression was a new start and she needed to take hold of life again.
If dragonrider:
dragon name: Merequith (2E37FE)
dragon age: 18 months
dragon size:
physical description: Merequith is a handsome, medium sized blue dragon. His hide is a bright, royal blue. The color is solid except for the cyan streaks on his wing membranes. He is still young, but is about full grown now.
personality: Quiet and more mellow than his rider, Merequith only speaks when necessary. He is very calm, less prone to panic and agitation than some Blues and Greens. He is a bit shy around the higher ranked dragons, but around the other Blues and Greens he is friendly, if a bit reserved.
pets:
name(s): Lucky
species: green fire-lizard
age(s): 3 turns
description: Lucky is a light green fire-lizard. She is friendly and cheerful, and she loves to be spoiled with pets and food. Kia bought her egg at a Gather, along with a second egg that turned out to be a dud. She named the green Lucky because her egg was the one that hatched.
