Biography

Gaia~~

Earth Representative; Geologist
"What are the bones of the living compared to bones of the earth?"
In the Past...
Gaia was born in the heart of Dragonhome, within a clan whose existence was not dependant on the individuals that made it up, but its values of freedom that were shared. While she drifted from that clan, as many members were wont to do, the core value was instilled within her nonetheless.

Her parents were both fascinated by bones: the remains of living things that told their story even a millennia after the creature had met its end, natural or otherwise. They told her of all the secrets they unlocked, and even showed her how to unlock them herself. She took to it like a duck to water, or a snapper to knowledge, absorbing it all and retaining the knowledge within her head, never writing it down. She had no need to. At this point, the young Gaia was convinced that she would become a bonescryer like her parents.

But then she discovered something else, something that drew her in like a moth to a flame. The rocks themselves, the ones that made up her home, surrounding her wherever she went, became alive. They did not actually animate, although she had heard stories of the possibility in other realms, but a curious young snapper once caught sight of something different. It was an ore, she was told. The lifeblood of the stones around them. If the stones had blood, she reasoned, they must also have bones.

From then on, she dedicated herself to hunting down the bones of the earth itself, leaving her birth clan to follow the veins of ore wherever she went. Over the long journey, she found many more types of rocks, storing all the information in her head. By the time she reached the Starfall Isles, she could hazard to call herself an expert on the rock formations of Sornieth. That is, until she discovered the chalcedony that made up much of the Arcanist’s domain.

Clan Role...
Gaia’s main role as part of the clan has little to do with her self-appointed job of studying the rocks, although she uses it as an excuse to get out of the lair a while to investigate new veins, or old ones she enjoyed visiting in the past and wished to return to. She is the clan’s Earth representative, and her long, meandering journeys are supposed to end up within Dragonhome as an ambassador for the clan. This does not always happen, as she finds the task quite tedious at times and prefers to remain alone within the rocks on her journeys than deal with her ambassador duties. 1080.png

Personality...
886.png
13413.png
Gaia is a calm and collected individual, who has no wish for conflicts and will leave any area that appears to be reaching a state of tension. For this reason, there are some clan members that she will never be in the same place as at the same time, and other clan members, or even areas of the lair itself, which she will never venture near. While many clan members maintain that her seemingly infinite patience would make her a brilliant mediator, she simply does not wish to get involved in disagreements, because she doesn’t want them to get stuck in her memory.

Things such as romance do not agree with her, either. She tried it, once, but could not remain attached to either her mate, or her only son, and soon drifted away from them. It is the one period of her life she wishes that she could regret. Hatchlings have never been, and will never be, her favourite thing. They grow up too fast for that.

"the only one of yours i recognize is gaia, named for the greek mother earth goddess!" - elfmoss

"Such a pretty girl! And from her bio, she's a little geologist too! I find that quite cute, and I love the fact you named her after the primal goddess of the earth! I'd say a good choice with her coloring and outfit too!" - ParanormalExpert

"This lady was named after Greek goddess of earth." - Ventoux

"Gaia, the primordial earth or mother goddess?" - FreeToFly

"Gaia is a very relatable dragon in many aspects. Especially the whole ‘will leave an area where there’s tension’ part. And that she’s looking for ore, because pretty rocks and avoiding confrontation are a huge part of my life. I find it interesting that she shirks her duties if she doesn’t want to do them lol though I feel kind of bad for her attempted mate and her son. It doesn’t sound like she was attached to either of them I also like her cowgirl hat :^)" - JacketyJackJack

"My favorite dragons are always dragons with character, and this snapper is dripping with it! Everything, from the opalesque accent to the hat and the bits of earth apparel make her look like the calm, collected geologist she is. In particular, the gem thief piece makes her ready to collect any interesting specimens she can find." - Alew
