Physical Appearance:
Seraya is a lean young dragoness with pastel pink scales and dark violet wings. The spines on her back are a light, almost pearlescent hue of green, while her horns and claws are the colour of bone with a slight golden shimmer. Notably one of her horns is broken, only a small portion remaining on her head, which, together with her intact horn and from a certain angle can make it look like there's a crescent moon behind her head. Her dark green eyes seem friendly and she makes an overall happy inpression. If her past or her missing horn bother her it's not apparent.
Apparel / Accessories:
A necklace with a purple crystal around her neck and a thin piece of dark purple ribbon tied to her intact horn.
Biography:
Seraya grew up in the starlit mountains and crystal filled caves of Dark Passage in the Dream Weavers world. Being outgoing and adventurous from a young age she loved to explore her homeworld, much to the dismay of her guardians, as the steep cliffs and dark caves are not exactly the ideal playground for a fletchling. Still Seraya managed to slip away from the watchful eyes of the grownups countless times.
While she did get along with most other young dragons her restless nature didn't really allow for a rigid friendgroup to form around her. Nonetheless she was usually welcome to join the local groups in their games. During one such occasion, chasing through the caves (definitely a game forbidden by the adults), a crystal that dislodged from the ceiling threatened to fall on a fellow dragon. Without hesitation Seraya charged towards her friend, only thinking about what she was doing in the last second managing to turn her head away as to not skewer her friend with her horns. Slamming into her friend with her side she managed to push him out of harms way but the falling crystal did strike her head, breaking her left horn. Luckily for everyone involved no one suffered any grave injuries.
The adults expected that event to teach Seraya to be more careful, maybe listen to them for once, some even feared she would suffer some trauma and lose her happy go lucky nature. To everyones surprise the exact opposite happened. Saving her friend filled Sera with imense pride and she was never more confident in her abilities and her capability to do the right thing. From that day forward, even more so than before, she was looking for trouble and danger to try and help others.
Guild Questionnaire
"What’s your name, and which community do you call your own?"
My name's Seraya, Sera for short. I'm a Dream Weaver.
"Why is it you’re applying to the Clover Oath Guild? What made you seek us out?"
I was told you guys are helping other dragons in all of our realms. You see... I really love my home, but I've spent all my life there and I really want to go and see more of the dragon worlds. I thought this might be a good opportunity to do some good while at it.
"Why do you think you’re a good fit for the Guild? What do you hope to accomplish with us?"
I maybe not the strongest, but I'm pretty fast and a good glider. I'm also not afraid of new, unfamiliar environments. I think I can handle my own in most situations. As for what I want to accomlish with you... I don't know, I don't have a big goal in mind. Joining you just feels like the right thing.
"How well do you collaborate with others? Can you be an asset to a team?"
Oh I do get along with pretty much everybody and I'm happy to help out wherever I can!
"What kind of skills do you possess? Do you have any kind of 'signature' magical abilities that are unique to you?"
I'm an illusionist. I can trick your mind... maybe I'm not even here anymore as we speak.
...
Jokes aside, I do practice my illusions. I especially like making illusionary plants. They are pretty and you don't need to water them.
"Which division within the guild — Researcher, Scout, Guardian, or Medic — do you think you're best suited for, and why?"
Ooh, ooh ooh, scout! Please let me be a scout. I wanna go out there and see new places.
"Is there anything else we should know about you?"
Errrrm, given I'm a Dream Weaver I do sleep a lot. That's, um... that's totally a Dream Weaver thing. Don't think I'm lazy. If you ever catch me sleeping on the job, just wake me up... gently.
Trivia
- The crystal necklace she wears is actually made from the same crystal that almost fell on her fellow playmate. After the incident Seraya went back to the cave and took a crystal shard as a memento of her heroism as well as a reminder that some good deeds come at a cost.
- Being a Dream Weaver Seraya is a very active and lucid dreamer. This most notably causes a high risk of very active sleepwalking. A lesser known ability of hers is that occasionally she can also enter the dreams of others if sleeping next to them. It's not a 100% success rate though, dreaming isn't an exact science.
- Seraya loves playing in water.
- Despite her best efforts not to let anyone know the falling crystal incident did giver her a mild phopia of things falling onto her. Try giving her a surprise hug from behind and see where that gets you.
- Serayas breath ability manifests as a golden mist that that will send smaller creatures to sleep. Bigger or tougher foes might be unaffected.
SPARK
Name: Slingshot
Species: Cameleon
Appearance:
Slingshot typically mimics the green spines of Seraya but can change colours. While not actually making him invisible this may make him exceedingly hard to spot sometimes.
Characteristics:
Slingshot always watches Serayas back... literally. If he spots any potential danger he will alert Seraya with a flick of his tongue. Since he is rather slow on foot he also uses his sticky tongue as a means of getting places or manipulating objects. He's got impecable aim and about one dragon length in reach.
