Physical Description: Her blonde hair falls down just past her shoulders. It's of varying shades, though mostly a dark, dirty blonde sort. It's rather thin, and tends to be rather wispy. She doesn't do much with it, leaving it bangless and hanging down to frame her face. Her face is angular, with high cheekbones but an almost sallow look because of her yellowish hair. Her eyes are of an ordinary shape. They are a soft, dark, mousy brown color, framed by thin, short blonde lashes and thin, arching eyebrows. Her complexion is a fairly even one- she's never been one to tan or burn by much, though she occasionally freckles across the bridge of her nose, shoulders, and arms. She's of a medium height, with a medium build. Her figure isn't one to marvel at, though she does indeed have one. She has a bit of meat on her bones, and muscle as well, though neither an over-abundance of either. Her butt is probably the firmest part of her body, toned by Turns of dragonriding. She tends to wear rather interesting outfits that would look rather silly on anyone but the quirky young woman- who pulls off the look for the simple fact that she is quirky. Her wardrobe is her one vanity, and she tends to collect odd bits and pieces- rare little ensembles that everyone else would cringe at. She has a tattoo over both of her legs, which she often covers for the delicacy of others. It is an intricate black design that has no designated pattern. It leaves her feet clear, however. She often walks barefoot, and it's been considered that the young goldrider has a foot fetish.
Emotional Description: Most consider Ikaese unfit to be a goldrider. However, no one would be as cruel as to say it to her face. Grown up in a peculiar way of life, she has become a rather peculiar young woman. She feels unfitting to Weyrlife, and will often be rather hesitant. After living in a Weyr for so long, and feeling the criticism from those who have lived in them their entire lives, she often feels inadequate when dealing with her position. She tends to watch everything with darting, inquizitive eyes, as if trying to see what everyone else is doing as to better know what to do herself. This isn't to say she is incompetent- in fact, far from it. She was simply never taught to deal with her position, and has been picking it up as she's gone along. As herself, one will find her a fairly pleasant person, if sometimes not a bit overwhelmed. She enjoys her quiet time, and her time to slip into a crowd as well. She has a strong affinity for flitters, and seems to be well-liked by them as well. She tends to seem rather bumbling and clueless when involved in a large group of people, but this is simply the way she is. Ikaese is often laughed at and ridiculed, but she holds her own. She tends to take up a rather biting, sarcastic personality at times, for she's only human, and the fact that she's the butt of many jokes is well-known to her.
History: Ikaese was born to a trading group of twelve in Southern Boll. They enjoyed the warm weather and the lush bounty of the land, and thus lived more as gypsies than traders, though occasionally they would give their wares and collected food and other oddities at Gathers and such in exchange for practical items. They had no official name, they were simply called 'those wandering folk' to the Southern Boll-ites. At the age of ten, Ikaese was given a firelizard egg in return for a basket of shells she'd collected over the summer. The large egg Hatched a rather large brown, which she named Crisby, after a childhood friend. The brown was an absolute terror- fat, lazy, and the whole kit-and-kaboodle. She adjusted after a while, and soon the two made a terrorsome duo. She was Searched at the age of twelve while the group was stopped over in the main Hold for a bad storm. She accepted, curiousity getting the better of her. It was probably the last bit of childhood curiousity Ike would ever show. Not long after, she found herself in the busy, crowded place of Fort Weyr. Absolutely terrified, she ended up shutting herself away in the barracks for nearly a month before she would begin to adjust.
She Impressed three Turns later, having finally found herself adjusted to Fort Weyr's goings-on. Cosith was a small gold, even at birth, and as most predicted she didn't grow as large as most, remaining rather small. However, this was of no consequence- she was a healthy queen, and though smaller than most, still sized fairly larger than most of the bronzes. The two made an unlikely pair, but no one can pick what is meant to be.As soon as Cosith matured, Ikaese found herself transfered to High Reaches Weyr. However, her stint there lasted only three Turns. The entire time Ikaese made it quite clear she was miserable in the cold weather and the rather aloof nature directed at her. However, she had to remain until she could be both replaced and transfered.She Impressed green Freud while she was there. The name was suggested by one of her friends, a Master Historian who focus had remained on keeping up some of the background of their previous home, though she was a dying kind. She'd taken up the craft because both of her parents had followed it, though her passion for it didn't burn as strong as theirs.
Not long before Thread would begin to fall, she found herself a new home in Shoreline Weyr. She transferred, becoming the youngest queenrider underneath Weyrwoman Serenio and her Second, Tania. She found herself sliding back into the warm, tropical life much easier than she had at High Reaches' cold temperature, though the constant awkwardness that seemed to plague her did hinder her a bit. Buying her runner, Gypsy's Wind, helped her settle a bit. The stallion has been a constant companion for the old wandering girl.She's now been a Jr. weyrwoman at Shoreline for three Turns. She still finds herself adjusting to the people, and is most likely the quirkiest goldrider one will find around Pern during the Second Pass.
Dragon�s Description: Cosith is small for a gold, though she still maintains the same proportions. Her hide is a ghostly pale color, though the goldish tint in her makes it clear that she is just a small queen, but a queen none the less. It is an almost creamy colour spread evenly across her entire body. She doesn't have any scars or outstanding marks. When she and Ikaese leave the Weyr, she often returns looking greyish and dusty. Her pale hide makes dirt and such stand out, making her need baths more often than most dragons. Personality-wise, Cosith is quite the loud young queen. Though the Jr-most of the queens currently at Shoreline, she's probably the most out-spoken. She has a little temper, but she loves to throw around her rank (seeing as how she has little physical weight to throw around). When on the Hatching Sands she can be quite fierce and always angry, but Hatching occasions usually end up being rather comical watching Ikaese try to sooth the savage beast. If one had to use one word to summarize Cosith, it would have to be 'cute'.
Pet�s Description: Crisby is your usual fat, lazy brown flit. He's the stereotype, and no matter how many times Ikaese makes this known to him, he goes on being the way he is. His hide is a dark, mahogany brown color. Freud is a long, thin green flit. Her hide is absinthe green, making her almost as pale as Cosith. Her neck and tail are a bit unproportional, making her seem all the longer. She's quite the frisky, playful young thing of two Turns. Gypsy's Wind is a rather large, white stallion. Gyp has a few gray 'flea-bitten' spots on his back, but is otherwise purely white. He's well trained, being about fifteen Turns. Ikaese bought him a few Turns back at one of Cliff Side's Gathers.
