Name:Lyra

Age:17

Gender/Pronouns: Female. She/her.

Dragon Rider or Dragon: Dragon Rider

Appearance: Golden blonde hair that falls to the middle of her back. 
She usually wears it loose.  Tan skin, a scattering of freckles across
her face.  Large sky blue eyes with long lashes.  Has a slightly turned
up nose.  Pale lips and a bright smile.  Loose, light brown pants and a
loose fitting darker blue shirt.  A belt around her waist keeps her
shirt from flying up when she rides a dragon.  Carrys a short sword. 
Two thin gold bracelets on her wrist.  Covering her bracelets are
leather wrist guards that has a hidden sheath on the left wrist where
she hides a tiny dagger. When she flys she wears a thick light grey
jacket, a green scarf, and a helmet like hat that ties under the chin.

Personality: Bright and strong. Can seem to be unfeeling.  On the
outside she seems tough, but on the inside she feels things deeply.  She
feels what others feel.  Can be slightly sarcastic but not in a mean
way.  Thinks quickly.  Is very fast and has sharp reflexes.  A natural leader and decision maker.

Background: (if you want we can work on this more after we've all made
our charries, to link them together) Was found in front of the Dragon
Rider fortress (or wherever their headquarters are) at a very young
age.  No one knows where she came from, or at least no one says.  Was
raised in the fortress.  Became a Dragon Rider apprentice and graduated
early.  She's a good Dragon Rider, but new.  I am thinking about making
her backround clearer in the RP.

If dragon, who is their dragon rider, and if dragon rider, who is
their dragon?: Soror (see sheet below)

Shipping? yes or no: No, though she would love a really close friend of any gender (other than her dragon).

Her eyes are golden brown and shows her emotions very well.  Her claws
are dark red.

Personality: Very kind and empathetic.  Sensible.  A mothering type of personality. Soft and sweet, though she will be become very fierce when someone she cares for is threatened.  Smiles a lot.

Background: (if you want we can work on this more after we've all made
our charries, to link them together) Was born inside the Riders’
fortress.  Her mother died when she was very young and was raised mostly
by her father and the dragon caretaker.  She picked Lyra as her Rider
before Lyra was even old enough to be apprenticed.

If dragon, who is their dragon rider, and if dragon rider, who is their
dragon? (We'll figure this out the same way we do with shipping) Lyra is
her Dragon Rider.

Shipping?: Soror isn’t open to shipping.

Other: She cares for no one in than world more than Lyra and would do anything for her.  Lyra is her child.

Yes, starting from the beginning would make sense. Should we be able to make side characters?

Name: Araelis (Rae for short)

Age: 16

Gender/Pronouns: Nonbinary, they/them

Dragon Rider or Dragon? Dragon Rider

If dragon, are they a sun or moon dragon?: Not a dragon!

Appearance:Wavy shoulder-length black hair, light brown skin, sea green eyes, short-ish.  They like wearing exotic, colorful clothing and always wear small golden hoop earrings.

Personality: Outgoing, charming, and charismatic.  Rae is a thrill-seeker and daydreamer, often ignoring important issues.  But when they are passionate about something they put their heart and soul into it, not giving up until the goal is achieved.  Because of their charisma and people skills Rae is also somewhat of a compulsive liar.

Backstory (parents, how they came to be in Equidron, etc): Rae's parents were wealthy nobles who raised dragons for the Dragon Riders.  Shortly after Azazel's rise to power their parents were murdered and home burned to the ground.  Rae's own dragon, Horus, rescued them from the fire and together they fled to Equidron.  The Riders took them in and Rae has lived there ever since, but has sworn to take revenge against Azazel.

If dragon, who is their dragon rider, and if dragon rider, who is their dragon? Their dragon is Horus

Appearance: Golden yellow scales with black scales in patterns mixed in around his neck, tail, claws, and eyes.  His horns are golden and curved, almost forming a crown or halo shape.  His wings have pale brown webbing and are dusted with golden feathers.

Personality: Wise and brave but also haughty and vain at times, especially when meeting new people.  He is very protective of Rae and keeps them grounded.

Backstory (parents, how they came to be in Equidron, etc): Horus was adopted by Rae's family when he was young and once Rae was born quickly bonded with them.  He fled to Equidron with them when their parents were killed.

If dragon, who is their dragon rider, and if dragon rider, who is their dragon? His rider is Rae

Shipping?: Probably not

aww, i'm too late. if there's any chance i could join- as a side character, or maybe a, uh, person who does stuff... lmk, cause i feel terrible about my performance in the original, and this seems epic.

I guess it's about time I start answering questions... 

Also I forgot to mention that riders can communicate with their dragons telepathically, which is what makes them connected to one another.  

@dreamii, since you were part of the original rp, it only feels right to let you play a part in this, so you can be tmw's character's dragon rider. 

@red starlight, technically all spots were filled at the time your comment was posted, but there maybe a side character whose perspective we could use, so stick around and a character for you might come up :))

@blackfooted bobcat, yes, these are in fact western dragons (thanks for checking). I guess I didn't give much thought to Emarya's connection to the real world, but I think having a charrie with a real world race would make sense. (I hope that helped?) And feel free to add more sections to the charrie sheet, it was really just a basic outline :))

Emarya is a fantasy world that has elements of magic and fantasty creatures (like dragons, obviously). Below is a map of Emarya, which was made by our beloved Peregrine.

And here is a map of Equidron, the dragon rider's territory, also by Peregrine ~

Aww, thanks Mary.  I had forgotten about the maps I drew.  I'm really looking forward to starting this!

If I'm taking too long to develop my charrie, let me know and I'll post what I have so far.

@Blackfooted Bobcat, if you could go ahead and post what you've got of your charrie so far, that would be great! Then we could go ahead and get started :)))

@Admins: I'm so sorry this is so long.

@Anyone: If anyone wants to be my dragon, they can; I'm not writing from their POV anyway. I'll see if anyone wants to before posting them. I've referred to them as Hinata, they/them for now, but if anyone wants to be mine, they can customize them as they want.

Name: Azami-Enji Castañeda (if you don’t know how to type an enye (ñ), could you look it up? Thanks :D)

Age: 9

Gender/pronouns: ze/zer/zem/zemself. Referred to as “a child/person”. Probably agender, but presents more as female.

Dragon rider or dragon: Dragon rider.

Appearance: Medium light brown skin, almost-black eyes, very thick straight black hair worn somewhat long that’s only sometimes brushed, short for zer age, slightly worryingly skinny. Always dresses neatly because zer parents found cleanliness very important, and usually wears a happi over zer clothes because why not? When it’s colder, ze often wears a lliklla and a coat (if ze has one). Has a fair amount of scars from fighting guards; the most noticeable one runs vertically down from zer cheek to zer neck. 

Race: Half Japanese half Quechua Peruvian.

Personality: Doesn’t trust people; assumes they won’t carry through. Because of this, ze tries to be very independent and shuns anything needy or babyish. Even happy emotions are considered a threat; ze has to keep zer appearance unassuming and as strong-seeming as possible, in this case. Ze tries to change zer personality to fit the situation, but refuses to be anything that’s embarrassing. Azami-Enji is very perfectionistic; because ze can’t trust others to follow through, ze wants to be able to count on zerself. Completely illoyal towards most people, but if a person/dragon/cause is important to zer, ze will probably never abandon. Does what ze needs to do to survive. Generally acts cold, but when you mention something ze’s interested in, ze gets very excited. Ze also cries very easily, which ze hates. As much as ze has trouble/tries not to show emotion, ze is pretty sensitive. Ze just figures that feelings are hard and often get you into trouble. Ze’s a bit of a compulsive liar at times. Ze’s autistic. Rarely, ze will get super frustrated and break down/get angry/get mean, which is generally a shock to other people. Azami-Enji doesn’t care about social norms; in zer opinion, it’s not worth it to have people in the first place. If ze knows you and trusts you, like Hinata (and zer brother Haruki, once) ze loves to be with you. Ze just figures that someday it’ll come to an end. Pretty anxious inside, but has trouble vocalizing feelings. Refuses to accept help because ze figures people just want stuff from zer. Azami-Enji almost never forgives people ze has grudges against, and often focuses on getting revenge. Introverted and pessimistic. Gets pretty obsessed with things and loves to do things relating to them. Main three traits: Sensitive-but-tries-not-to-be, changes personality to fit what ze needs as long as it’s not degrading, vengeful

Backstory: Born into a poor family in Havenwood with an six-year older brother named Haruki and a mom and dad, ze spent a lot of time exploring the forest with Haruki. Zer parents were always working, never had time to take care of zem, and often were really judgemental when they did.
When ze was six, ze found a dragon egg in the wood. Haruki helped zer raise the dragon. Hinata, the dragon, had grown up most of the way by the time ze was eight. That’s when Azazel set a fire.
Ze only barely escaped with Haruki, and probably would have starved, gotten overheated, gotten burnt to a crisp, or died in some other way if ze didn’t have a dragon.
Then Haruki got severely injured by one of Azazel’s soldiers. He died as they were flying over the city, escaping on Hinata (their dragon).

Soon after, ze saw a sign about the rebellion. Ze was immediately hooked.
The only problem is, nobody trusts a 9-year-old. Most of the other riders are far in their teens or even twenties. And if ze wants to get revenge, Azami-Enji is going to have to impress them.
Now.

How do they react to criticism? Praise?: Ze gets pretty defensive against criticism, trying not to cry. Ze understands why ze needs criticism, but it hurts. And ze gets really excited about praise.

One thing they can always be sure of: They don’t really think anything’s ever sure; anything could change in an instant if something bad happened.

Some things they feel bad about/insecurities: Azami-Enji’s deepest insecurity is how ze failed to save Haruki. Ze still misses him, a lot. Ze thinks his death was zer fault. Ze is also insecure about how many fears ze has; ze would rather be emotionless.

Dragon: A young dragon named Hinata.

Shipping: No, but open for one or two friends!

Hobbies/interests: Ze loves everything about flying, from the wind in zer hair to the smell of the air, so flies whenever ze can. Ze’s very obsessed with getting revenge on Azazel. Ze also loves reading and writing, when ze can focus for long enough.

Fears: Fire. Ze would rather be cold than have a fire. If ze’s not otherwise stressed (so, never), ze can sometimes handle it; most of the time, ze freaks out. Instead of using fire, ze usually keeps bottles of trapped warmth magic from Hinata (if that doesn’t fit with the magic system I can change it). Ze and Hinata have a written agreement about not using fire. They don’t have it anymore, but the symbolism remains. Ze’s also scared of darkness, being alone, being with people ze doesn’t trust, and lightning/thunder. Things not being perfect also gets zer worked up.

How they want to be seen: Azami-Enji wants to be seen as capable and strong. Ze doesn’t want people to know that ze has feelings; ze would rather be seen as emotionless and annoying than overly emotional. Although ze does not want to seem annoying - ze needs people to trust zer.

Other: Gets a lot of odd looks and questions because of zer age, which ze hates. Ze is semi-verbal, and zer ability to talk varies. Sometimes ze can’t talk at all; sometimes ze can string together words into a basic sentence. This largely depends on how overwhelmed ze is at the moment. Ze always has a notebook and paper because ze can think of sentences when ze can write. Ze has very bad handwriting. Ze loves rocking from side to side to calm zirself down, moving and flapping zer arms when ze’s happy or excited, and spinning around and around whenever. Has always thought that it would be cool to be able to draw, but ze doesn’t have enough focus for sitting still that long. On which note, ze is very bad at sitting still but does zer best.

Again, @Admins (and anyone who actually reads through all this), thanks a lot! And @Admins, you guys are great. Thank you!

You're welcome!
