Name: Zipperacreous (but she lets people call her Zip)
Age: 20 Turns
Rank: Journeywoman Healer
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual, but also leaning towards bisexual
Appearance: The first thing that might be noticed about Zipperacreous is that she’s taller than most other people around her. It isn’t really that much, and she isn’t a monster compared to everyone, but is taller than most of them, if only by a couple of inches. She isn’t particularly overweight or underweight, and isn’t really skinny in a sense either. She just... is. (that explanation did not go well)
Her hair is long, going down to about her waist, and is dark shade of brown that can almost look black sometimes. Her hair tends to curl, especially down at the bottom, and she sometimes ties it back as well as she can to make it shorter. Her eyes are dark, but not cold in the slightest. She usually has a smile of some sort on her face.
Personality: Zipperacreous loves to talk to people. It doesn’t matter what the subject is, if there is any conversation, Zipperacreous wants to find out what it is and join in with her opinion. This is mostly not because Zipperacreous likes giving her opinion, as it would seem, but because Zipperacreous is always looking for what other people think. She would do a lot of things just to find out someone’s opinion on something. She often wishes she could read minds to save herself the trouble of asking people. She cannot however, so Zipperacreous has to resort to asking people. She doesn’t usually just ask them right away what their opinion on something is. Zipperacreous prefers to first keep talking in the hope they will say it eventually. If they don’t say anything, she might eventually just ask them their opinion, though usually she prefers not to do this.
She hates dragons. They just scare her. She has this strange fear that she’ll end up as a Candidate and Impress to the largest Gold dragon Pern has ever seen. Most people might find this an honor, but not Zipperacreous. To her, dragons are just huge and menacing and not really that likeable. If she ever, through some bizarre turn of events did become a Candidate, she would stand on the sands and pray (though not to Faranth. Nothing could make her pray to a giant ancient dragon) for a really, really tiny Green or, better yet, a White dragon. That is her main fear summed up pretty well.
On the other hand, she loves firelizards. It might seem strange that she would hate dragons, but love the tiny versions of them, but she does. Zipperacreous has a goal: to get a firelizard of every color. This means she wants a Gold, a Violet, a Bronze, a Tan, a Sky (if it’s possible), a Brown, a Teal, a Charcoal (again if possible), a Blue, a Barred, a Green, and a White (she is certain they can exist) firelizard. Some people might think she is crazy for that, and maybe she is, but to Zipperacreous having twelve firelizards would be way better than even being near a Gold dragon. Her problem is that going to the Weyr to reach her goal might become inevitable if there aren’t enough firelizards down at the Hold.
History: There is no tragic event in her past that accounts for her hate of dragons. She simply doesn’t like them. Zipperacreous actually had a quite normal past. She was born in the Hold, and became the middle child out of five. It was almost inevitable that Zipperacreous would become a healer. Her father was a healer, as was her older brother, so why shouldn’t she be? Certainly there were other crafts she could have gone in to, but for Zipperacreous, the craft didn’t matter as long as she could enjoy it. She became an apprentice in the craft at ten Turns of age, and decided that it was something she could handle doing, and even enjoy.
Zipperacreous was an apprentice for seven Turns before she became a journeywoman. She was happy to be assigned to the Hold, which was much nicer for her than the Weyr. She had never been there, but she’d seen riders on Search and decided that if that was how big the searchdragons were, there was no way she’d want to meet anything larger.
She first really paid attention to firelizards when someone found a clutch and it in to the Hold. Zipperacreous was fascinated with it, and hung around to watch the eggs hatch. She Impressed to a Green then, and named her Petal. She was 18 Turns old at the time. Zipperacreous soon decided that, unlike dragons, firelizards were great. They were kind of cute and would be quite helpful. And they weren’t scary or intimidating.
Petal flew several times, and in the first few Zipperacreous just let anyone who wanted an egg have one or two. Later she thought it would be nice to have more firelizards, so she kept two eggs from one of the clutches. They hatched into a Barred and a Blue, whom Zipperacreous named Flutter and Shimmer. It was then that the crazy idea of getting a firelizard of every color snuck into her head, and it became her new goal. She doesn’t think her lizards could clutch a higher color than a Brown, so she knows she’ll have to visit Gold and Violet clutches, and if she has to go to the Weyr for that, she will.
Pets:
Name: Flutter
Type: Firelizard
Color: Barred – Flutter is a rather green Barred as well. She has a bit of a minty color to her, that is silver and green at the same time. The purple on her proves that she is indeed a Barred firelizard though.
Age: 1/2 Turn
Size: 21 centimeters, and just barely that
Personality: Very, very jumpy, and very adventurous. Flutter’s favorite thing to do is explore, and then do it some more. She is far different from her mother, for she cannot sit still. Flutter will investigate anything knew, and isn’t scared by much. She gets along great with just about everyone.
Name: Shimmer
Type: Firelizard
Color: Blue – An almost teal-colored kind of a blue, that looks just a little bit greenish, but no one would ever mistake him for anything other than a Blue.
Age: 1/2 Turn
Size: 25 centimeters, although not by very much
Personality: He is a little shy, and doesn’t like to do go exploring quite as much as his clutchmate. Shimmer enjoys finding new things when there is someone safe he can go in case trouble arises. He never gets upset over anything and will back down from anything frightening. Usually his shy nature makes him seem quite adorable.
Name: Petal
Type: Firelizard
Color: Green – A light shade of green, looking a little pale in some regards.
Age: 2 Turns
Size: 23 centimeters, and not overly far from being larger (which is probably hard to measure in centimeters, but...)
Personality: Generally rather quiet. She likes to stay near Zipperacreous and not do anything overly dangerous. Sometimes she gets curious and goes to investigate something, but the slightest sign of danger, or of anything frightening, will send her scurrying for a place to hide. She can be considered cautious more than scared.
Other: Yes, I know she cannot reach her goal since everyone can only have three females and eight firelizards total. It’s just fun for her to have a goal. I don’t mind. Just for the sake of things, it’d be nice if she didn’t end up with colors she already has.
