Artianna

Please forgive me, her bio is under construction 😞 *buzzsaw sound* *jackhammer sound* *hammer sound* *construction noises*

(greeting w/ draggo talking)

Meet Artianna, the clan's second Imperial sister of Erigore, who arrived when I found out Eri had a sister and saw Erigore's sister was also up for sale! Give a greeting to the clan's Activities Instructor & Adventure Seeker! :D

Her name used to be Artificial, but I figured I'd change it since she had a new life here at the SkyWings clan, and also since I didn't like the sound of the word Artificial for her, since she's not fake, and is very much real so she needed a good, real name to suit :)

Arianna has a bit of a carefree personality that tends to also make her a bit reckless, unruly, risky and live on the wilder side of life. She tends to live for the moment and loves things that give her adrenaline rushes, no matter what she has to do to get there.. Since she always felt like her sister was a goody-two-shoes growing up, Arianna had to do something too to get noticed, and she found acting up got her the attention she wanted, although maybe not the attention she needed. With this, their family decided to sell Artianna to see if someone else could deal with her better, and Erigore decided to go with her. Thankfully she got to come to the same place as her sister where they could both start anew, but Art's tendencies only followed her to a new clan when she got bought. Being the first two Light dragons in the clan, they both decided to set up a school, though it was mostly Erigore's idea, and at first, Artianna was alright with it, but her reckless behavior still hung around her and as the clan grew, others began getting fearful of letting their hatchlings be around her. As time went on, Artianna also felt as though this wasn't truly her calling, so she began to step back from the teaching career, only helping here & there, while she pursued her own more dangerous activities..

To show support for her husband and his Flight that he is oh-so proud of, she is currently donning the Mechanical Valkyrie accent :)
Since the school thing was a flop, she still wants to pay a little homage to the Flight from which she hails and still show to others how important knowledge is to her, she is also currently donning the Brightshine Raiments. Though not a high ranking echelon like the cloak might suggest, she still proudly wears it, showing off her heritage to the others around her.

Artianna comes from a clutch of four, from her parents PassMeOn and DarkDeath. She doesn't know much about their past for they never spoke of it much but she could see the love they shared, even if her father didn't stay for long. She grew up with her siblings happily, but as time went on, she felt like her other siblings got more attention and she became lost in the shuffle, so she felt as though she had to do something to make up for it, and this was where her wild attitude came in. She didn't have this personality at first, it came over time, but she grew to like it and found she enjoyed the reckless things that garnered the attetnion of her family. She even got her sister, Undyne, to try some of them with her, and for a time, they were close with the activities they shared. But, for whatever the reason, their parents decided to send them off and they were all eventually listed under the Auction House at various points, and as such, Aritanna was put up & Erigore decided to go with her. Around that same time, Cascade & Gabrian went to stop by the House, both with different reasons, as she curious to see what she could find for she was also just starting to learn her way around the realm of Sornieth and he was on the search to find someone to call a companion. The first Imperial to catch their attention was Erigore, but she told them about her sister so they returned for the other Imperial and also brought her back to the clan as well.
From that day, Artianna & Erigore settled in, finding their place within the newly-forming Wind clan as they also worked on forming bonds with the few dragons who were already here. Erigore, being the kind soul that she was, got along right away with nearly everyone, but because of Artianna's more wilder personality, it took awhile longer for her to adjust. Since both the Imperials hailed from Light, they decided to try & set up a school, but Art found that she didn't enjoy it as much as her sister did and she didn't particularly enjoy being around the hatchlings so she left most of the teaching up to her sister while she explored the new territory on her own terms and tested her limits with her flying & physical capabilities.
Upon arrival, she noticed there happened to be a few grown male dragons in the clan. She noted Valen was obviously taken, although another Skydancer didn't seem visibly tethered, and he immediately caught her eye. He was a very kind-hearted dragon who welcomed her & her sister in warmly when they arrived, and she never forgot the compassion of the Arcane dragon with their first few interactions. They spent some time together getting to know one another before another dragon arrived, and Arianna loved being around him before a new Ridgeback showed up. As time went on, however, Artianna seemed to notice how Erigore & the Skydancer seemed to be forming a relationship, and she grew angry at that, for she wished to have a relationship with him, not her sister. Even as they grew more serious, had a wedding that Art attended and was the Maiden of Honor at and she later on became an Aunt, it still ate away at her, deep in her mind & heart..
While all this was going on, at the same time, there was this white Ridgeback who kept trailing along behind Artianna while she did her daring stunts like tight-rope walking and zip-lining across the Reedclefts. He always followed her no matter the peril, and though she found it creepy at first, soon she came to like having him there for it became reassuring to have someone nearby should an accident happen. Finally, that day came when she lost her footing on a slack-line between two bamboo shoots that she thought were sturdy enough, but they broke, sending her & the slack-line careening out of control. She nearly smashed to her doom if it wasn't for the Ridgeback who was watching her every move and who swooped to her rescue to catch her just before she hit the ground. "You really should be more careful," he chided her in a gravelly voice as he carried her up to safety. "Thanks," she said in greatful admiration, then blushed. "I-I know, i-it's just..I really like these kinds of things a-and.." she started, but when she couldn't come up with a proper explanation, she changed the subject. "So, who are you? And why do you keep following me?" she asked, addressing him & getting straight to the point of things. He smiled, which was rare to see on that Ridgeback, and from there, a strong bond between the two of them began to form as he explained he was drawn to her for some reason and just knew one time she'd get in serious trouble, and he wanted to be there just in case it happened. She learned to trust him then, and found that that was a new feeling for her, for she never really trusted anyone outside of her family, and at that, the two of them only drew closer....
But even as their relationship grew deeper and she let Terrence, the Ridgeback, into her heart, the unsettling feelings of jealousy only began to fester and root themselves deeper within herself as well. She was falling for Terrence and now loved him deeply, but she couldn't deny the feelings for the other dragon as well.. And one night, she devised a plan that would get her alone with him to get at least a sliver of time to have all that she'd dreamed. She was a good actor and kept these plans to herself however, and snuck away in the wee hours of the night, studying all she could of incantations and concoctions of bending one's will to another to do whatever you'd wish and so that they'd have no recollection.. Artianna was crafty and kept it all under wraps and kept everyone fooled, stealing away to the shelves in the school her sister was stocking with books from every corner of the realm, and when she wasn't cliff-rappelling, she was there, reading up on things to help bring about her wildest fantasies. She was secretive about it, of course, and though it hurt to have to lie to the one she cared about most, she knew it had to be this way for he wouldn't let her otherwise, and any other way it was going to hurt, and she didn't want to lose him. Terrence, sadly, was completely fooled, until the consequences of that night later caught up to her, but being caught up in his own emotions, he asked for her claw (hand) in marriage to which she gleefully said 'yes!' and thus it was arranged.
Shortly after moving into their own home together, they welcomed in their own lovely children and being a mother grounded Artianna some and taught her not to live so dangerously or put others at risk. And though she grew busy with being a mother and having her claws (hands) full with hatchlings, she didn't forget about her plans, but decided to wait until her own children were fully grown so she wouldn't be so busy with them anymore.....
Finally, her patience paid off and the moment presented itself when Terrence arrived home utterly exhausted from a day of training, and Erigore was going to be staying late overnight doing night school and watching over maintenance that a team of Snappers would be performing on the structure of the school. Art knew Erigore was a perfectionist so that was going to keep her out all night since she'd be inspecting every little thing they'd do, and she also knew Terrence slept super hard after an equally hard day of training; there was no way you were going to wake up that Ridgeback. With this information, she set to work preparing her plans then moved over to Erigore's home, and since she knew her sister so well, she pretended to be Eri so that when Gabrian arrived home from his job, he wouldn't be suspicious of anything, and she'd have him allll to herself the rest of the night.....
After one of the best nights of her life was over, she stole away back to her own home to return to her own husband's side before the sun rose and before anyone could catch her, thankful her coat was dark enough to conceal her under the dark of night. Back by herself, she sighed happily to herself at the seemingly success of things, then fell asleep, blissfully unaware of the consequences to come..
Shortly thereafter, the consequences manifested themselves in the forms of eggs that Artianna laid in their nest, and when Terrence pressed her about them, she tried to reassure him they were theirs, but once the clutch hatched, it became apparent that that was not the case for they were both Skydancers, and the truth came out. Terrence was hurt & disappointed in her that she had done such a thing to him & behind his back, and also to her sister & Gabrian as well, but as time went on, all four dragons learned to welcome in the children and love them as their own, biologically related or not.
Since Art had now satisfied her old passion for the Skydancer and learned her lesson, she and Terrence have worked on their own bond and this fiasco has worked to strengthen it in a way, for now they trust each other deeper. And after a great apology, Artianna has proven to keep her word and hasn't gone to looking at or thinking of the Skydancer in that way again. To show how much she trusts Terrence & loves him now, they have welcomed in some more children of their own: WhiteBlood, her first son, and two more wonderful Ridgeback daughters, Lavrenti & Yaziel. She & Terrence loved raising three more children, but two of them felt as though they did not quite fit in here. Growing up in the SkyWings clan, the two daughters wanted to find their places elsewhere & not stay so they ventured out in to the great land of Sornieth to find their place in other clans, which both have been successful at :) Art, along with her husband both, miss their daughters, but are happy to receive letters from them about their journeys, experiences & adventures in their new homes :)
The whole family enjoys playing with Velet, Terrence's Floracat, but Art seems to be the only one who prefers the more dangerous types, such as the Bite, the Ashpine Widow she's currently spending time with. "Living on the edge", she calls it. XD While her daughters shy away from the arachnid, WhiteBlood is fascinated by it, but keeps his Clouded Mith far, far away from the 8-legged creature. Now, however, as Terrence has taken his Lightning rep Role more seriously, Velet was handed off to BlackRaspberry for the Gaurdian to enjoy, and Art has to keep tabs on Bite to make sure Jolt doesn't end up in the spider's jaws XD

Previously:
Her role in the SkyWings clan is to help with her sister as a Teacher, but has had some of her privileges taken away and cut back on since she has more of a reckless and carefree spirit. Moriah is not really sure where else she could fit in the clan that would be a better suit for her, so for now, she'll keep Artianna where she's at...
Update/Currently:
Since Artianna likes to live on the wilder side of life and test danger at every turn, she has recently been Appointed Activities Instructor and Adventure Seeker, where she takes other Dragons in the clan that like testing their limits on fun trips and doing activities such as rafting, hiking, cliff rappelling, sky diving and other crazy outdoor activities like that. She has gotten safety training and has shown promise on working on cutting back on some of her reckless tendencies and seems to be filling this Role well. With this progress and all of her training she received, Moriah now feels comfortable she's ready for a Role like this, and the few groups Art's taken out for outdoor adventures have come back alive, safe and unscathed, and some even wanted to go again :D
