Name: Nix
Age: 20
Gender: Female
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Rank: Rider
Family: Travelling traders who have moved on after Nix insisted to stay at the weyr.
Dragon: Green Metholith
Pets: 1 green firelizard, Crysti
Appearance: Nix is surprisingly short in statue compared to her parents who are over 5ft 7, as she stands a meager with 5 foot and a quarter of an inch. Depsite her lack of height, she is not stocky and looks to be very underfed to the point of looking like a stick insect, although it just seesm her metabolism so active that weight just falls off her very easily making her easy to fall prone to exhaustion due to falling blood sugar levels. Thus she usually find Nix binding herself up with bandages and other bits of material to lessen the worry of other people about her lack of weight.
Nix's hair reaches mid back in casade of rich bronzen red waves with lighter streaks of copper and an almost blood red before receding into various shades of browns and deeper, dark reds. It is easy to tell if she's not brushed her hair when sh'es woken up as she will often end up with a home made afro that just seems to defy gravity completely. But usually her hair will tied back in a thick plait with thick band of black, white, red or blue cotton to hold the plait together. During summer her hair will bleach out to point o being a bright, in your face copper with thin wispy strawberry streaks, whilst in the dead of winter her hair will be a muddy looking bronze, although the red is nearly invisible until you look very closely. With the constant color changing in the seasons, Nix's hair can often end up very dry and brittle and she can often end up with a extreme amount of hair loss.
Nix's skin tone is considered pretty unusual by those from the northern contient, with what looks like white skin that seems to be as smooth as porclain but its only when you look again do you notice the dusty golden overtone that shows that she's lived in a place with lots of sunlight. She's often been refered to as collectable porclain doll by her past love interests due to her appearance and fragility in build. With her delicate skin tone and lack fo weight, this makes Nix very prone to bruising up quite dramatically. After her first day out hunting with Crysath, she came back literally black blue with varying shades of purple from the bruises from falling through the undergrowth and misjudging her landing from branches and other bits of vegetation. Despite the fact she does bruise up easily, she is surprisngly hardy, one of her more well known comments for a huge gash is to request a bit of bandage to cover it up without any real concern for the amount of damage she had done. This has left her with an impressive scar that runs the length of her left forearm from the elbow to the heel of her palm, the edges of the scar are puckered up showing that her healer had little experience with such injuries and had sown it up wrong and thus caused it to heal funny, although this isn't something Nix complains about.
Nix has an elegent facial shape, a gentle oval that leads down into her chin that then leads up to a pair of full of lips with her top lip having a freckle on each peak on the top lip area. Her lips are naural pale rosey peach and curve rather beautifully. Her cheeks bare a soft curve to soften the otherwise oriental appearance of her facial structure. Her eyes curve gently towards the edges but are fairly wide to give her a very expressive look. Her iris color is fairly unusual by most peoples standards are well, as they are a deep, soul piercing green, one similiar to the viney climbers that cling desperately to the trunks of the southern contient trees. Yet the color seems to be as molten and swirly as her dragon's but the only color change happens when she's extremely anger or stressed. When angry her eyes will seem to darken to the point of having black flecks in the motlen green as though to show the dangers of her temper through physical appearance, and when she comes stressed, her eyes seem to slowly lose color so they become pale and almost dead appearance. Although thankfully, this is rare as nix lets very little get her down.
Basic Personality: Nix is often considered to be completely insane and random and yet also very in controll and self assured. Many atime she's been referred as two different people living in the same body as her personality can change so suddenedly that its like tossing dry firestone on an openfire. Her hold on temper is something that not many people who consider all that brilliant as she does often let her dragon's mood influence her moods and has a habit of flying off the handle at the slightest thing for a bare few seconds before her control returns and she ends up cracking jokes as though nothing happened at all. Nix is also a cheeky little soul, with her usual quote of "If you don't ask, you never get" and she has a habit of living by that statement.
Strengths (at least 5, preferably more, do not simply list them, but add a little description/example to go along with it)
Faults (at least 5, preferably more, do not simply list them, but add a little description/example to go along with it)
History: Nix was born to a travelling group of traders along the coastal line of the Southern contient. Her family were highly surprised by Nix's birth as her mother hadn't shown any signs of pregnancy nor did her stomach swell to occupy the growing baby within the frame of her body. They travelled to the Southern hold and settled for a little while to ensure Nix got training and was taught all that a young lady should know. She was also taken to the healers on a regular basis due to her inability to keep weight on and her blackouts caused by her forgetting to eat whilst learning or doing chores. At this time she proved herself a bright and eager child with a mind like a sponage for knowledge, and by the age of 7, she ahd read most fo the library with the occassional request for help on the longer words that she was unsure of how to pronounce. With the youngest lord of Southern hold taking a liking to the young Nix, her family stayed behind and tried to encourage the young nix into pairing with the lord, although this was met with instant dismissal. Despite all the pressure from both her family and the lord's family, nix did not bend, stating that she already knew where her future was. curiousity overtook and her family questioned on her on it and nix stated very calmly that she would become a rider of the great dragons and that no where in that did that include a pushy, aggrogant lord who thought the world revolved around him.
With the lord's father hearing this, Nix's family quickly took off in the dead of the night with Nix, concerned and angered by Nix's bluntness over her dislike of the young lord and for putting them all in danger. However, Nix did not budge even when they were caught by the Lord's guards and taken back. However, what happened on her 13th birthday is something that she would never talk about again [for plot reasons i won't be mentioning it here either]. As search riders came out looking for candidates for a new clutch just after Nix's 17th birthday, Nix broke free of the young Lord's grasp and raced to the dragons, throwing her arms around the brown's leg and begging the dragon to take her to meet the other part of her soul. The rider seeing her distress and his dragon's instant liking of the young female, he took her to the weyr and freed her of the Lord's grip forever.
However, Nix did not seem as excited at the frist hatching, and seemed perfectly happy to stand back and let the others claim the dragons. When she was pulled aside by the search rider, she told him calmly that her other soul was not in that clutch but she was coming soon. So nix was set to work in the lower caverns serving drinks and foods to the riders and doing errands. Although she spent much time with the search rider, assisting him in his old age with caring for his dragon and learning the ways of being a rider. At the Weyrwoman's dragon rising to mate, Nix looked to the search rider with a smile stating that her time to become a rider was coming. The search rider now weary with age had promised the young and eeirely confident Nix that he would stay to see her get her dragon. And sure enough after a few months of hardening on the sands, the clutch was hatched. Nix moved forward towards the green egg that sat in front of the others and knelt down just 4 feet from the egg, softly urging the green to come out. The riders watched, some with awe, others with a sparkle of amusement that they all knew she would take a green for her other soul.
Metholith hatched much like a queen would, throwing her lithe, fragile looking wings out forcing the egg shards to fly away from her and she moved without a hestitation to Nix and the impression was made. With Nix's rather odd impression she took being a rider as quickly as a weyrborn did. finding no issue with the early morning wakes up and constant running around to ensure that her dragon remained in peak health. And when they were allowed to go hunting, Nix ran along below her dragon in its shadow, her arms spread as though she was flying as well as they headed into the thick forest in search of their next meal. They soon caught a young wherry although Nix took a nasty kick and gashed her left forearm open on sharp rocks, and without complaint she dragged the wherry back to the weyr with Metholith's assistance, made her dragon was comfortable nd feeding before heading off to the healer. At which she held her arm up which was bleeding quite heavily and rwquested that the healer just throw a some bandages on it so she could return to her duties. With no such luck, the healer stitched her arm up as best she could as the wound bled heavily making it diifuclt for the healer to see where the injury was.
Afterwards, nix looked over the weyr, finding no males that struck her interest and the weyr suggest that she move onto one of the other nearby weyrs as they were full of fit fighting wings. With a smile and nod, Nix packed up her things and left the sothuern weyr, heading out inot the unknown to find her home.

Strengths (at least 5, preferably more, do not simply list them, but add a little description/example to go along with it)
- One of nix's strengths is being able to make light of most situations via jokes and light banter "You can do better than that jerk. Afterall all good things come in small packages such as jewels, gold, and poison..." ... "What poison is a good thing, i was poisoned and i turned out fine! Hehe"
- She's surprisingly easy to talk to about anything without worrying that it'll be told someone else "Of course darlin', i won't tell another soul. Promise." 'ends up questioned about her earlier conversation' "Oh? Yea.. she's fin- ooo shiny thing!" Runs away to investigate
- Being completely random when situations need defusing and serious when complete attention is required.
- Not complaining about injuries although this is also a fault. [refer to appearance and history for more details]
- Her surprisingly accurate gut sense and just sometimes knowing what she is destined for.
Faults (at least 5, preferably more, do not simply list them, but add a little description/example to go along with it)
- Not complaining about injuries. [refer to appearance and history for more detail]
- Lacking the full control of her temper and allowing it slip through to show its ugly face to everyone.
- When she's being questioned over she's been sworn to secrecy over or is uncomfortable becoming easily distracted by imagined 'shiny objects'.
- Being far too subtle when it comes to crushes and love interests yet with people she's not really interested in, they get the wrong messages as she's a complete flirty tart towards them.
- Not willing to talk about her own issues or past with people, and being very much like a tightly coiled dragon over some bits and being far to open about other bits [her being open over past bits are the bits she knows happened but has refused to accept them].
