SO, WHAT ARE YOU INTO?
FLYING; Azroth and I both enjoy taking long, slow, calm flights across Ethaia. While it can sometimes be rather dangerous, it is still an extremely pleasant experience. It gives both of us time to spend with each other, as well as to time to think.
SORCERY; I love sorcery, and almost everything about it. Being a primarily magician user, magic comes naturally to me and I enjoy every aspect of it. Earth is my favorite element.
SNOW; Snow is possibly the most beautiful thing nature has ever created. Its pure white scenery is absolutely breathtaking - flying above fields of snow is an amazing, lifetime experience.
SHOPPING SALES; I love to save money, and am what some may call a "coupon-saver". I read the newspaper for any coupon clippings I can find as well as to find out information on any upcoming sales. I will only buy things that are at retail prices or on sale - that being said, I love to shop.
MORNINGS; Seeing the sun rise is what starts my day and is a great way to begin. The ever-so slight warmth of the sunlight beaming through my bedroom window to tell me that a new day has begun. I much prefer to live than sleep. There always seems to be so much more to do.
COOKING; Cooking is one of the only activities I can really do on my own and still enjoy. I love cooking in the kitchen, and can't typically do it with other people around. I will cook just about anything - for my family, friends, and even Azroth.
ANIMALS; I have a soft-spot for animals, especially polar bears. Animals deserve respect, just as dragons do. Possibly due to my earth magic, I always feel connected to animals. I used to bring stray pets home and try to hide them so I would be allowed to keep them.
TRAVELING; I love to travel and see the world. There are so many beautiful places in Validexo and I hope to one day be able to see all of them. Unfortunately, I have a hard time enjoying myself sometimes in Thivea when I hear their hateful comments against Ethaia.
WORKING; I love my job, and it is nearly the perfect job for me. Every moment we get a mission or a quest, I am excited and anxious to get it done and be successful. I'd much rather work than have free time - for working is just as fun as what I may do during my free time, and by far more rewarding.
DRAGON RACES; While it may not be a good idea for me to attend dragon races, I rather enjoy the sport. I have not yet participated, although Azroth wishes to. I am quite competitive during this sport, however, and can become aggressive when it comes to dragon races.
PLACING BETS; While I do not like spending money, and am quite frugal, I find it incredibly difficult to resist the urge of betting. I am extremely good at betting on dragon races - and so far, have only failed once. Some call me lucky, others just say that my screams are enough encouragement to get the dragon to move more quickly.
ELVES; While I cannot explain it, I have a strange fascination with elves. I love the species, and the ears. Elves, to me, are a magical being that deserve to be more respected than they are. They are more wise and more historical than humans or sorcerers are.
AND WHAT DO YOU HATE?
ILLEGAL DARK MAGIC; Other than the fact that it is illegal, it is also evil. Being a sorcerer myself, I think that magic should only be used for positive purposes - even if it means hurting another for the sake of your kingdom. Illegal dark magic is unacceptable and gives sorcerers a bad name.
SPENDING MONEY; I do not like to spend money if I do not have to. While I may not need most of the clothing I own, I do like to get things on sale if possible (if impossible, then it is not necessary). I will not spend more money than I have to, and only in a couple of instances have I been required to do so.
RAINY DAYS; I much prefer the snow. Rainy days mean that it's more difficult to go outside and enjoy the outdoors. I don't like being stuck inside for too long, especially without Azroth or any other social interaction.
MORNING BREATH; Ah morning breath... while nobody specifically likes morning breath, I especially dislike it because my morning breath is, honestly, quite terrible. I keep a pile of mints by my bed at all times. I grab some mints the moment I wake up to rid the horrible scent.
LAZINESS; I do not mind laziness in other people, however I cannot stand it within myself. Like most, I have my lazy moments, and even my lazy days, and I despite it. I hate not feeling like doing anything - because there is probably so much that needs to be done!
FAILING; I do not like disappointing myself and failing a certain task I set for myself. I especially don't like failing a task that someone else sets for me. When I fail, it is noticeable, as I will become extremely negative about myself. Fortunately, this does not last too long, however failure is something I never truly forget.
THE DARK; Yes, I do not like the dark. With or without my dragon, I do not like it. I like being able to see scenery and see distances - it makes me feel safer.
LIGHTNING/THUNDER; When Azroth was only two years old, he was accidentally struck by lightning. The thunder storm was so terrible... I had to carry Azroth back home, during the storm with heavy winds and rain. I got lost along the way, but eventually made it back. I never have, since then, liked those types of storms.
SILENCE; Silence is eerie. Simple as that.
HOSPITALS; Hospitals remind me of sick or dying people, and of course that's not a pleasant thought. The smell of hospital rooms are also quite unnerving.
GETTING SICK; Nobody enjoys getting sick, and neither do I. However, getting sick is a rarity - I take pride in my overall health, so when I do get sick, I can get quite grumpy. But of course, that will never stop my day from continuing.
SWEATING; Sweat is the most disgusting bodily function I can think of. Ick...
FEMINISTS; Feminists. Well, I don't necessarily dislike all of them. However, there are a few general feminist attitudes I don't like. As a female myself, I understand trying to gain recognition, but I think females should focus more on trying to become equals rather than making themselves seem more important and being competitive.
OKAY... WELL, WHAT ARE YOUR GOALS?
Have a Family, Become a Captain, Serve Ethaia
GOOD LUCK, THEN. WHAT ARE YOUR FEARS?
Thunder/Lightning, Death, Living alone for the rest of my life.
YIKES. NOW, LIST TEN CHARACTERISTICS THAT DESCRIBE YOURSELF.
modest, easy-going, understanding, open-minded, competitive, impulsive, confident, romantic, easily-impressed, respectful

NOW WE'RE GETTING NOSY. TELL ME ABOUT YOUR FAMILY.
My father, Dalton, is a pleasant old man. Being at the age of forty nine years old, he has lost a significant amount of his head hair and is now quite short, reaching at only five foot four. My mother, Clarisse, is still a beautiful forty-six year old woman. My parents and I are very close and I respect them greatly. My father works on the nearby farm in Estium. My mother works at the local daycare center. We may not make a lot of money, but we do the best we can with our financial situations and I would not have it any other way.
I have two brothers and one sister. The oldest of the family is Kendall, who is twenty-four years old. Kendall and I get along great - we were the oldest of the family when our two younger siblings were born and we hit it off immediately. My father tells me that Kendall was the one who taught me how to walk. Two years after myself, Tessa was born. She is my baby sister and always will be. She is a head strong girl, and we have gotten into a few conflicts, but nothing will change the fact that she is my best friend. Finally, my youngest brother, who is fifteen years old, is Tristian. I will admit, I did tease him quite a bit when I lived at home, but he knows it's all in good fun. My family are all very close with each other - we would not be where we are now without each other's support.
OKAY. DO YOU HAVE ANY PETS?
Why yes, I do have a pet. A few years ago, two polar bears (one male and one female) arrived in our back yard, rummaging through our trash and looking for food. When my parents saw them doing this, they never rushed them off. Eventually, the polar bears actually dug up a hole in our backyard, where the mother gave birth to a baby bear. She brought the bear to our doorstep and took a few steps back. They were not giving the baby up, but rather allowing us to see and touch it. I started to look after the baby female polar bear, who I named Soyola. She is only one year old, and can't travel with me and Azroth at this time.
SOUNDS INTERESTING. OKAY. NOW, JUST TELL ME EVERYTHING ABOUT YOUR PAST.
Born on November Thirteenth, I became the second child to join the Brimatel family in Estium. I was never a spoiled child - none of my siblings were. We enjoyed the simple things in life, such as playing with pots and pans as a substitute for instruments, or using rocks and pebbles instead of dice. We played with chalk on the sidewalks, made snow angels and snowmen during the heavy winter seasons, and of course, our favorite activity, snow ball fights. My mother would always tell us that money will never bring happiness, that the people surrounding you are the only ones can influence your satisfaction. We were always quite content with living a non-luxurious life financially, but a life abundant in love and happiness.
As a child, I was always trying to impress my parents. My attempts were consistently successful, as their support never dwindled no matter the decision I made. However, I think I was primarily trying to impress myself. I found at a young age that I was incredibly competitive with myself - striving to do things better than my expectations, or better than before. When I was six years old, I enrolled in the Ethaia Training Academy with the hopes of becoming a successful dragon rider. While at the Academy, I discovered my ability to use magic - something that my older brother, Kendall, also has. My parents had informed me at an early age that I was most likely a Sorcerer rather than a human. However, I never had the opportunity until the age of six to try to prove which I would become. I am a Sorcerer.
I trained for the next six years at the Ethaia Academy. I was rather young compared to my fellow classmates - however, I was not the youngest. I did not graduate top of the class, nor did I graduate as the lowest. I was in the middle as an average student. I was proud of my accomplishments of being able to graduate when I was twelve years old. However, I wanted to graduate with more under my name - with more for me to be able to recognize within myself. But first, I need to select my life-long partner - my dragon. I was ecstatic when I was taken to the incubator at the Academy. Inside, hundreds of dragon eggs laid resting peacefully to be chosen by the proper partner. I knew I had to select carefully.
Selecting my dragon was a moment I will never forget. I was nervous - nearly petrified - to choose a dragon and then be rejected. What if I chose the wrong one? What if he wasn't right for me? I stared at the incubated eggs for hours. Each egg had a unique design to it, and a unique shape and size. No egg was exactly same. I would place my hands against the plastic case around the egg, feel the warmth of the heat from inside. My eyes would peer onto its surface as I waited for something to happen, as if to tell me that the egg was the right one for me. Students came through and passed me, grabbing an egg anxiously to see what will hatch. Finally, after five hours inside the Incubation Room, my eyes landed on something rather curious. It was a dull orange egg with a spike design labeled on the shell. When my hands pressed against the plastic, I felt an unusual amount of warmth pass through my hands to the rest of my body. I had the case released, and the moment I touched the egg I knew it was the right decision - this was my egg.
Two weeks had passed of me caring for my egg with the assistance of Kendall and my parents. I was beginning to worry about whether my egg would hatch, but my brother had informed me that it was nothing to worry about - as eggs can sometimes take even up to years to hatch. It depends on the preparedness of both the dragon and the rider. That night, with the egg tucked next to my pillow, I heard a small crack. My eyes flew open as I watched the shell begin to crack. The small pieces crumbled to the floor as a small orange tail popped out at one side. A large smile erupted on my face, as the shell disappeared and a small, orange baby dragon with spikes against it's back and the front of its neck emerged. A small "sqaut" sound came out and I fell in love. I named him Azroth.
I knew I wanted to be a dragon rider professionally, by joining a team to serve Ethaia. Azroth seemed thrilled about the idea as well. After teaching him to fly, how to control his magic, and how to ride him, he and I quickly became friends. However, I wanted to learn more before I would allow myself to even apply to be on a team. I attended several more additional, advance classes at the Academy. When I was sixteen years old, I applied for my first position on a soldier team for Ethaia. I was, unfortunately, denied the position and was denied again a second time when I was seventeen years old. However, after taking just a couple more classes, I applied once again at the age of nineteen and was accepted into Contego. I was ecstatic for the position and am currently serving Contego and Ethaia.

TELL US ABOUT YOUR EQUIPMENT[/COLOR]
Juliette uses a magical staff to channel her magic. It is her primary choice of weapon. She can also use the large, solid glass orb on the end as a blunt weapon for hitting. However, she carries with her a simple short sword if she needs it for more front-on attacks. She does not carry with her any form of armor except the armor she wears, which has metal plates beneath its cloth surface.
WHAT SPELLS DO YOU KNOW?
Many sorcerers will choose to learn two or more elements. However, Juliette has instead decided to focus on the broad element of Earth. She has learned both the ground and rock magic, as well as the nature focus side of earth magic. Her spells vary, depending on what she is going for. She has the capabilities of bending and using the ground and nearby rocks to her will - such as throwing rocks, manipulating them ever so slightly in shape, size, and weight, and being able to sometimes create weapons. This typically will take more energy out of her, however. She is also able to make the ground shake, create various sculptures with the ground such as making the ground rise in various locations, and be able to move large objects. Her most powerful ground-based attack is creating an earthquake, however this takes a lot of energy out of her.
She is also able to use the nature inspired side of the earth ability, which has made her in tune with nature. She can call birds, control plants and trees, and be able to sense approaching changes in weather.

OKAY, DRAGON... WHAT ARE YOU ALL ABOUT[/color]?
over-confident, cocky, flirty, perverted, protective, persistent, stubborn, competitive, hard-working, caring
I SEE. AND WHAT ABOUT YOUR HISTORY[/color]?
I was born in an incubator. My experiences inside? It was hot. It was so hot, I could not wait to get out. But, until someone touched my egg, I was not permitted to even think about hatching. I think I was in the egg... for like... eight years. But, Juliette told me I was really only there for about two months. Nonetheless, I remember feeling someone touching the shell. I knew immediately that this was the person I was meant to be partners with - her name was Juliette Brimatel and she was a young hopeful dragon rider. I waited two weeks before hatching because I couldn't figure out how to move. It took forever to realize that my tail could move!
I remember those first couple days like it was yesterday. I could barely walk, because apparently I also couldn't figure out that my tail not only moves but it's used for balancing as well. Juliette's brother's dragon finally explained to me that the tail has multiple uses. Finally, someone frickin told me! Anyway... I finally learned how to walk, no thanks to my beautiful Juliette (no offense). One year later, I learned how to fly. I have to admit, I gave Juliette a really hard time with this one - she kept taking me to Academy classes, but I never paid attention. I just wasn't interested in what they were teaching. They were all, "These are the rules of flying"... Why are there rules? Can't we just fly? Anyway, I finally did learn.
Our teacher told us to start practicing fire breathing, as well. According to her, my breed is supposed to be excellent fire breathers. Well, I have to admit... she was completely right! You should have seen my first attempt! Man, it was incredible, far more powerful then you could have ever imagined from such a small baby dragon. The flames enveloped my vision I could no longer see in front of me - yes, they were that big. ... okay, I'm lying. It was a pathetic puff of smoke. But, I did have that dream.
When Juliette told me that she was denied her first application of being a dragon rider, I have to admit, I was pretty pissed off. Who dares deny my beautiful and wonderful Juliette? I practically raised her! She's the best dragon rider out there, and I am the best dragon, too. Unfortunately, she was denied. The next year, she was denied again. I threatened to visit the Dragon Rider Headquarters of Ethaia to force them to give her a position, with my amazing fire ability (I swear, it's much better now). But, Juliette stopped me before I could. Instead, we took a few more worthwhile classes - I didn't need them, but I guess Juliette wanted me to try anyway. Finally, on our third attempt, Juliette and I became official members of Contego, a soldier team for Ethaia. Yeah, baby, here we come!
INTERESTING. NOW, WHAT ABOUT YOUR SKILLS?
"I am an incredibly powerful dragon, despite being so young. Yes, I am the most powerful dragon you will meet. ... Excuse me? ... Are you saying I'm wrong? ... I'm pretty sure you shouldn't be using that language. ... Okay, please, calm yourself before my amazing presence. ... Thank you for leaving. I don't want to ever see you again!"
Azroth is primarily a warrior-type dragon. He uses his strength and defense to battle his opponents. After discovering his uses for his tail, it has become his strongest weapon. On one end of the tail is a large, natural spike that extends nearly a feet out in length. Against his entire back and in line on the front of his neck are more spikes which are helpful during full-frontal attacks. He also has two long, thin horns protruding out on either side of his head he can use while headbutting. Azroth will also use his claws, however this is typically for a last resort. He will use his physical strength to swing opponents in the sky, break down trees and use those as weapons, or even throw boulders and other heavy materials. He has the capabilities of knocking down small buildings, as well.
