Yates

---

Yates is a messenger for Crosiafall. Unlike his mate Ereal, Yates prefers the "slow and steady" approach to his message errands. Level-headed and diplomatic, at first glance Yates appears to be a very responsible dragon, however if you give him a moment he will completely disprove that theory. Yates is a big flirt, quick with a compliment or a raunchy joke he will have anyone blushing in a matter of seconds. Yates has a very contagious laugh, when the other members of Crosiafall are having a rough day and are in need of a laugh they approach Yates.

When he was a junior messenger he noticed that Ereal's first errand had landed her in the mending wing. He visited her everyday, sometimes more than once a day. He would bring her flowers or sneak in little treats anything to make her laugh. "Laughter heals the soul", he is often heard saying. Soon after Ereal was declared fit for work he began courting her, they recently completed the ritual to make them mates.

Despite being mated to Ereal, many have questioned his preference as he seems to flirt with both males and females. Yates always answers this question with a wink, a smile and the words "well you'll do just fine". He is a great lover of everyone and anything, he believes that differences make others unique and that is beautiful. Ereal loves this about him and it never seems to bother her.

Yates can often be found guilty of playing pranks on others with terrasea. They are very close friends, they call each other "brothers-in-pranks", much to the dismay of many in Crosiafall.

Yates enjoys drawing, he and Ereal's den is covered in his artwork. He has won several awards for his art in the art fairs, occasionally he sells his art there too.
