KEDRIS
➳ Head Historian ▲ Observant ▲ Nervous ▲ Knowledgeable
Occupation: Head Historian Details: Responsible for recording everything that occurs in Calliope City. She is given her own little corner at the university's library where she usually locks herself in for hours on end. Don't touch her stuff! She's a bit messy but everything is organized in a way that works for her. Surprisingly scatterbrained, she is prone to ramble and forget things in front of people on occasion. Don't worry, it's just a bit of anxiety. Give her some space and she'll do just fine.
Origins
Kedris has always lived her life for others. As a hatchling, she decided her very existence would be to help her family however she can (she still thinks this way to a lesser extent. She loves her family very much). This thought process led to years of anguish and self-neglecting. She turned out to be a very nervous and restless dragon as an adult. She didn't understand herself. She felt lost and insecure in the path she picked for herself. She felt stuck.
Kedris always wanted to be an academic. In what, she didn't know, but she knew she wanted to be one. She doesn't know how or why, but ultimately she decided she'd like to be a scientist. This was a mistake. She most likely only picked this path because she thought it would make her the most money for her family. Her path has been very fortunate up to this point. She got into a prestigious program at one of the top universities in the Arcanist's domain doing science. Kedris was never cut out to be a scientist. It was only years later that she realized this after going through years of torture in an academic program she had no passion for. She was struggling, she had no focus in her classes, could not recall even the most basic theories that she'd need in her field. Her brain didn't feel right or clear. In her mind, it was too late to change. Her time for "mistakes" was behind her. Her family depended on her to finish her schooling, to get a job, and secure both their and her future. She couldn't change but she also couldn't handle the pressure. She began sinking further into despair. Midway into the program, Kedris decided to go to therapy after battling with despair and self-hate for so long. It was here that she learned about depression, anxiety, and a plethora of other underlying issues she might have. She started to understand herself, unraveling all of her layers and walls she put up to shield herself from, well, herself. Kedris had never allowed herself to be an individual. All her thoughts and actions were made with others on her mind. Eventually, she learned to become more mindful of when she'd do that. At this point, she finished her program. She did it mostly out of spite for the dragons who told her she couldn't do it. Her years of pressure and anxiety in her original program left her nervous and anxious. That might never go away completely, but at least now she can identify when she goes into this state and can try to work through it.
Now Kedris works as the head historian for Calliope city and it's university. This was not what she was originally studying. Again, she was very fortunate. The local university had an entry historian position open. The only requirement was having a degree. Kedris was hired right away, and over the next few years, Kedris worked her way up to becoming the head.
This job is just as intense as being a scientist, but Kedris was better suited to this job. History was something she was always passionate about. It just took her a few years to realize this. This job allows her to take care of her family in the way she wanted as well. They are very proud of her and support her in whatever she decides to do with her life. She still has her ups and downs, but she's better equipped for whatever happens. About
Kedris serves as my personal help/self-care/anxiety dragon. I imagine her personality kind of mimics mine but she has a better understanding of herself. My idea of her would be what I'd ideally strive to be. I picked her because we share the same birthday, she's a beautiful dragon, and she's a pearlcatcher. I could see myself as a pearlcatcher.
Her bio has my yearly goals, ideal routine, and things I'd like to remember (quotes, things my therapist told me, etc). I try to look at them when I feel anxious. She also has her own origin story and place within Calliope city, so she's not just a random dragon but actually part of the lore.
