Biography
Arctica was youngest out of her litter and didn’t really interact with her two fae siblings mostly because they didn’t really care about her. Instead she spent her time helping their father, Kaamos, to take care of her siblings and coevals and as soon as she left the hatchery she moved to help her other clan mates. Though being criticized for being clumsy Arctica was rarely bothered by that as she was very forgetful dragon. Arctica worked for her clan joining gathering trips not caring having to clean her fur always after that and helping her clan mates when asked. Later, when Tinker moved to the clan and as she started to organize the lair she asked someone to fix the apparels in the Hoard. Arctica, being always ready to help, was fast to volunteer. Problem though was the fact that she had never stitched anything and spent the following nights trying to figure out the basics. Arctica wasn’t very good with the job she had taken and her clumsy fingers and bad memory didn’t really help the situation. She though wasn’t upset by that and kept trying again often repeating same mistakes like she had never done them before. She didn’t really make much progress until Parcha walking past pointed out few of the mistakes she was making and helped her after watching her to not understand what he had said. He came to help Arctica almost every night and the two became very good friends and eventually a couple having total of three litters of eggs. Life carried on normally for Arctica she spending her nights fixing clothes, sometimes taking breaks to go forage, improving slowly but surely and helping to build an observatory for her brother Nova in the middle of all that. Her children seemed to do greatly and she didn’t see reason to worry about them. However, most of them started to act weird soon after the observatory project was completed though Arctica had hard time realizing how long that was the case her memory being what it was. Weeks later the clan found weapons hidden across the lair and held an emergency meeting to figure out where the weapons had come from. As they were talking Witchi appeared claiming that over half of Arctica and Parcha's children were planning to take over the clan. At first they denied what she said but once Parcha found more hidden weapons in their nests Foxglove showed her teeth to Tinker. Everything was over before Arctica could even comprehend what was happening. The ones attacking were captured they not standing a chance against leaders' guardians and the clan started a trial against them almost as soon as the revolutionary were captured. Arctica watched in disbelief how her children admitted one by one having been planning a revolution and were exiled to the Observatory at the end of the trial. Her children’s betrayal bothered Arctica she wondering if all of that could have been avoided if she had payed more attention to her children. After all of that from her eight children only three stayed in the clan they having not been part of the revolution group. After thinking about it Arctica decided to divorce from Parcha not wanting to bring more bad dragons to world. He seemed to understand when she explained her reasoning and they carried on as old friends. After that Arctica continued working as seamstress hoping her bad memory would blur the event from her memory. 
Arctica worked as much as she needed to eventually learning how to not turn shirts into bags. Because of that she started to have more free time and decided to start making clothes from ground up with mixed results. Parcha had found himself a new partner in form of Tinker's child Tempest and worked now with lightning science. He occasionally visited Arctica to have the clothes, that did not react to their tests well, fixed but other than that they did not interact Parcha now living more fulfilling life than what with her. Years passed by with nothing massive happening in Arctica’s life until one night her clan mates’ distress caught her attention. She put her work down and went to see what was wrong. She arrived to where the residents were swarming and felt her legs giving up when she saw two dead bodies one of them being Mustamalva, one of her sons. Arctica had never been too close with him as he was a bit of a loner but she knew he had been dedicated to his clan and Arctica couldn’t comprehend why someone would have killed him. Arctica stayed near her son’s body wondering if she could have been able to help him if they had been closer and had a weird feeling of deja vu while wondering that. Few nights later few came to inform Arctica about who had been behind the death and what had happened to them but she didn’t care knowing it would not bring Mustamalva back. While resting next to her son Arctica met with Parcha after a long time who along with others repeated she should let go and move along. She though was not willing to do that having not said farewell for him despite having done that many times every night for sometime now. The loss made her memory worse than what it had already been. After some time Purukumi, Mustamalva’s big brother, came to meet Arctica. He asked her to make a scarf for his boyfriend and after he explained how long it had actually been since the death she decided to pick up her knitting tools hoping working would help her get over the loss. Arctica’s memory was still stuck with finding the body and Purukumi came nightly to remind what she was supposed to do and that past was in the past. As the scarf grew longer Arctica started to feel better and with that the memory started to fade away allowing her to start enjoying her life once more. Months passed by Arctica doing her job alone like she had done for years. However, not that long after Nova discovered a new constellation Rosalin came to meet her. She was ambitious about making the clan feel like a real city and as part of that she asked if Arctica was alright with sharing an office with Vengel in a new temple she was designing. Arctica had used old temple's free-to-use rooms to do her work if they were available and liked the idea of having her own office and someone to keep her company. Vengel was a grumpy fae and Arctica couldn't help but to feel something distantly familiar in him he having similar energy than Mustamalva had had though not as cold. The clan had just changed its name and made the plan for the temple project Arctica waiting to get to know her new housemate as their office was to be built. However, not long after that some weird looking creatures arrived to the lair clan's familiars starting to act hostile few evenings later. Arctica's companion Plaine was not affected by whatever affected the familiars it being just an enchanted doll but Arctica was able to tell that Vengel had hard time understanding what had gotten into his friend. That though was not end of weird things happening the news soon starting to state that the gaoler spirit protecting the lair had also turned hostile. No one had verified it to Arctica but she had heard rumors that the gaoler was Mustamalva reborn and Arctica had thought it behaved like him though she had never encountered the gaoler herself. Something felt very wrong in the lair Arctica being very scared of what had gone to Mustamalva. Both Vengel and Purukumi visited her to keep her calm and Arctica acted getting better just to make them less worried. Stuff in the lair was not getting any better for weeks until one evening an earthquake hit the lair it causing ground to rise to wall it. The clan was still confused when few mages stood up to declare the summoning of the Shade was nearing and the clan was to be sacrificed. Fear hit Arctica as she heard that she not wanting anyone to die. Purukumi and his boyfriend Vaapukka, who had been with her, escorted her to her nest in where they stayed as the life in the lair got chaotic. They stayed in Arctica's nest until the day summoning was supposed to happen arrived and Arctica got out to see what would happen forcing herself to move. She had not seen Vengel in nights and was worried of how he was. The eclipse the mages had caused hit and something took control over Arctica she being too afraid to pay attention to what was actually happening. She was eventually freed from whatever had taken control of her and with all the fighting starting around her she decided to find Vengel fearing for the small dragon. She eventually saw him trying to get away from the fighting when a bottle from a nearby battle flied towards him. Arctica sped up and jumped to cover the smaller dragon when the liquid from the bottle got absorbed to her fur and she passed out. Arctica was not sure how long it had been but she later woke up in healing offices her youngest son Malvadust bringing her some herbs to clear her head Purukumi helping her to recover and Vengel paying her few visits. Arctica was not sure what had happened she hearing Purukumi mention something about snowy owlynx while Vengel forbid him to do that. Things were very blurry for Arctica and before long she forgot what exactly had happened. Only thing that remained was a vague feeling of deja vu about something from the Starwood lair. When her and Vengel's office was finished Arctica moved in with Vengel like nothing weird had happened and was happy to start her new life with someone to talk to.

Traits
Arctica is pale blue arcane tundra with large eyes, long lashes and two pairs of different, darker shades of blue horns. First pair is darker, locates in the middle of the other and go straight back while outer pair is lighter and rotates to have tips near her cheek. She didn't hatch with the round horns and they have been made to grow from her head with a magical potion Parcha bought her to help with her clumsiness. Arctica’s fur is flat but long and has dark and pale speckles all around it except on her belly that is smooth pale blue and face that has darker mask. Meanwhile her wings are also pale blue having darker stripes around the edges. Though her mane and tail tuft both have long hair her beard has very short making her look like she doesn’t have beard at all. Arctica was born with gembond and has white clear crystals growing around her body and dropping off almost randomly before melting away disappointing everyone who thought they were real diamonds. She was later gifted a spell that turned her fur on her legs, chest and wings white as if they were frosty. Arctica used to have quite messy outfit despite of her field of work her blue spectacles, that help her to see the details when working and a dark locket having a scale of Parcha in it having been the least messy parts. Vengel updated her look keeping the spectacles and locker which he changed for a pale silver. Rest of her outfit got replaced she now wearing white cape and feathery tail tuft. Along with those she has pale blue silky shawl, circlet, socks, sleeves, tail and wing wraps. She used to have bag in which she carried her tools but that has been discarded and replaced with a wooden basket that hangs under her wing. As an elderly dragon Arctica has gentle and deep voice which is always kind and optimistic. She has energetic and silly but at the same time somewhat formal way of speaking. She has strong accent which is mix between Norwegian and British.
Arctica is kind and optimistic dragon who is always willing to help her clan mates. She though, partly because of her awful memory and partly because of her lack of intelligence, tends to be oblivious and may often act like she is experiencing mundane things for the first time. Though being very mature dragon she is often described to be somewhat simple dragon by her clan mates. Arctica is aware of that and fully knows what it means but is not bothered by that a one bit. She wants to enjoy her life without needing to think about mean and depressing things and often uses her awful memory to accomplish that. Arctica is extremely tolerant dragon and comes along with everyone. Because of her oblivious nature she can stand even the biggest jerks in the lair without being bothered by one bit and may help them if they ask as long as it doesn’t mean hurting someone in any shape or form. Though not very smart Arctica does know when things are not alright and knows when she should not help someone. Those situations are though rare as she is forgetful, clumsy and doesn’t really know what a secret is. Arctica is known to never be angry or even raise her voice in any situation even when upset and many joke that if she ever gets mad she is probably being possessed. Though not really suited to have a pet Arctica has a pet pinpush mirror doll she calls Plaine. Because of her bad memory she tends to forget it even exist but that doesn’t really bother Plaine as as a living doll it doesn’t need to be fed. If not riding its owner it runs after or around Arctica collecting any needles and other small things she might drop and uses itself as a living pincushion. As it cannot speak it either asks Arctica’s attention by nudging her or making sounds that are like mix between cat and jackal. Though not needing it Plaine loves Arctica’s gentle motherly attention and always sleeps under her arm or wing.
Arctica has a lot to be desired when it comes to her skills and her awful situation memory doesn’t help. Though being able to remember names without too much problems she forgets events, actions and teachings really fast making learning anything almost impossible. Though having worked as seamstress for years her fingers are still very clumsy and it is not unheard for her to drop things or mess up details. Arctica’s magic skills are not any better and pretty much all she can do is create a somewhat cool glittering pink dust cloud that only looks pretty. Even her smell is mediocre for a tundra. |
