Rank: Sr. Weyrwoman (Goldrider)/ Jr. Journeywoman
Physical Description: A tall, slender young woman of 6� and 160 pounds. Her sun highlighted ebony hair falls to her mid back when left out, though it is usually up in a sloppy bun, which constantly has to be redone as Serenio works. Aviath disapproves of her hair, saying it takes too long to wash. Before leading the expedition to the Southern Continent, Serenio was a tad overweight, which she was extremely miffed over because she couldn�t seem to lose weight, but in the course of working her butt off setting up the new Weyr, she lost weight quickly, simply because more time was spent working than eating. Her ebony hair frames a thin, pixie face of a deep tanned complexion. Previous to being appointed Sr. Weyrwoman, she had a rather light complexion, but it was hopeless for Serenio to try to preserve it as she set up the Weyr in the blazing sunlight. Her almond eyes are a beautiful mix of hazel and deep amber that can have a light, joyful sparkle, or a hard, metallic gleam when she is bearing down on an erring rider. Her dark bee stung lips have the same versatility, curved into a sensual smile one moment, and turned down into a hard, soul-smothering frown of disapproval.
Emotional Description: In two words: a perfectionist. Her hair must be done up perfectly, her belongings must be organized perfectly in her Weyr, her turn�s end dress must be that perfect color and shade that compliments her eyes. She is a total neat freak as well, and, though her queen inherited most of her rider�s personality, Aviath makes a game of rearranging her rider�s belongings with her tail simply to see Serenio explode when she discovers the change. She is also very nit picky when it comes to her appearance, and will spend hours in the bath, which annoys her dragon, who prefers to be out and about rather than on her stone couch. Aviath can�t complain though, for if she is picky about her own care, she is doubly so of her dragon�s. Serenio has been known to spend half a day in her weyr oiling her gold from nose to tail. Serenio would force her dragon to bathe with her, if she would fit in the bathing pool with her, but to compensate, she and Aviath fly to their own special lake twice every sevenday to swim and �give that dirty gold lump a good and proper cleaning.� Below her perfectionist personality, though, lies the steel heart of a queen rider who is ready to lead her Weyr into a Fall.
History: Born to a small mountain hold�s Lord and Lady Holder in a Fitaly Hold, She was Searched to Sabi Weyr at age 14, where she stood 3 times before Impressing a tiny Aviath at age 16. She was not scheduled to stand on that fateful Hatching, having given up her hopes. She was simply watching from the side, her sister was standing, and was surprised when the little queen darted between the lined up candidates and began running towards her. Serenio remained still, not sure how to react to this. And as the little queen�s steps faltered, a bronze rider pushed her onto the Sands and towards the stumbling queen. Her hope renewed, Serenio ran towards the dragonet and made the Impression.
As Aviath grew to an enormous size, Serenio and Aviath were transferred around to different Weyrs until she finally resided, at age 20, at Guvali Weyr. When she was 23, word began to spread of the Weyrs branching out into the Southern Continent, and soon after that the Sr. Weyrwoman asked her to lead a party, along with Tania, a jr.goldrider, of a couple hundred dragons, riders, and other people to form a weyr and holds in the South. Serenio accepted and the party left the weyr one year later, two days after her 24th birthing day.
The transfer went smoothly, no dragons or possessions being lost in Between, and soon after Shoreline Weyr was constructed, Aviath rose and determined that I�kar and bronze Ryuuth were Weyrleaders for the present time. Serenio has a strong leadership flair, and has done well as the Sr.Weyrwoman, commanding and managing her weyr as if she had done so all her life. She is also an extremely good medic, the only one in her family�s remote hold, and, after a Fall, she can always be found down, in the Weyrbowl, helping with Threadscores. Surprisingly, in all the times her Aviath has been flown, Serenio has been given only one child, compliments of her queen�s first flight, and she suspects that she will not have more. Fi�ser, named for his father, Fi�gal, is now a Sr. Weyrling to bronze Yagaeth at Jube Weyr, and his mother writes to him often.
Dragon�s Description: Aviath is a huge gold for her time, and of a lush, true gold color, with streaks of bronze and metallic green mixed into her shimmering hide. She possesses the ability to turn on a wingtip, rare in a queen, though she has only used it once in her adult years in order to save a quickly falling green, and does not look especially graceful while doing so. Aviath has a tendency to come down a little hard on erring dragons, and it only takes one offence for a problem to be corrected. Aviath is all warmth towards weyrlings though, even if they are Kinth�s of Colith�s, for she is ever delighted with their clumsy movements, and has been seen playing with a dragonet in the water. The queen is a very accepting sort, as are most dragons, not needing to know why thread scores, only knowing that it falls and must be stopped, for example. She had to get used to letting her children go, though, and only did so with her first clutch after a green dragonet almost died when Aviath wouldn�t let her reach her life mate.
Pet�s Description: Miir is a rather small gold firelizard of a pure bright hay gold color with no visible other colors mixed into her hide. Though she doesn�t know why, she knows that her Mistress is very special and therefore that she is too. She has become quite the little bully among flits, telling other flits that if they don�t submit to her wishes, she will sic her mistress on their friend. Miir is without a doubt the most mischievous of Serenio�s two flits and is more likely to get into trouble, which she does fairly often. Miir�s egg was a gift to Serenio for Impressing Aviath, and she was the point of great interest of her 2 turn elder, Sia, when and before she hatched, who acted as mother to her.
Sia is an extremely large emerald green with streaks of gold and blue mixed into her hide. She is, as all greens are, very scatterbrained and unknowingly bullies her gold friend back only by her size. She is also very sweet, and is much sought by browns, blues, and bronzes in her flights. She is Serenio�s pride and joy, for Sia, when she hatched buried beneath her clutch mates and badly injured, was pulled out by a determined, 13 year old Serenio and nursed back to health.
