Shpresa

Shpresa (shh-press-ah) means "hope" in Albanian.

Goals: Petals, Spinner, and Contour

Familiar: Fusar (Cragbacked Bouldursa)

Status: Digger of Ópal Hylinn

Bio: Shpresa was found by Tiamat during a small expedition to the Dragonhome, where she was brought back as an egg to the Sea of a Thousand Currents.

A slow swimmer, Shpresa expresses her talents by a way of Digging and finding precious items and materials for her clan. She prefers sleeping with her nest deeper into the ground, often getting soaked while she rests due to the dampness of the lair walls. However, Shpresa enjoys her scales being moist, as it allows her to slip around and burrow far more easily, even if she does come out muddy.

She can quickly adapt to changes, making her a perfect rolemodel for new hatchlings. Shpresa's personality is extremely loyal and highly religious; she worships the Tidelord and more often than not pays her respects to the other deities, especially the Earthshaker. Despite her devoted nature, Shpresa is known to actively disagree with forcing religious practices on other dragons. She firmly believes that every dragon is entitled to their own opinions and beliefs, though she befriends dragons easier if they share the same religious viewpoint.

Shpresa loves Watermelons and the smell of Eucalyptus, and is cautious towards plushies, due to a rather traumatic scare involving a Kelp Tender Plush as a hatchling.
