Voice Actor
Name: Kinyegele "Kinye"
Age: 16 17 18
Sex: Female
Sexual Orientation: Still discovering this
Craft: Harper - Artist
Rank: Apprentice
Location: High Reaches
Physical Description: Kinye is a simple looking girl with a round face and perhaps more of her baby fat than she'd like to admit she's retained. She has dirty blonde-brown hair worn in a braid and large eyes that just compound her look of innocence. She has slightly crooked teeth.
Personality: Kinyegele has seen the bad in people and it's consequences - what it does to baby dragons, what it makes baby dragons do to them, how this hurts everybody, and she has decided that she is going to be a little ray of sunshine if it kills her. She refuses to let the badness a person could possess be what she sees of them first, she refuses to think ill of others unless it has been earned, she refuses to add any more dark thoughts to the Weyr. Despite how her kindness will be challenged and perhaps even forced, if she must, the odds have not made a dent in Kinyegele's naturally cheery demeanor. Even though the path towards looking on the bright side is paved with negative people and bad times, Kinyegele can always be caught with a smile and a good attitude.

With adulthood creeping in and the weight of her future really starting to settle down onto her shoulders, Kinye is fertile soil for the conflict and worry that pull at everything she does. Her heart worries constantly that her motivations aren't the right ones or they somehow aren't enough or that perhaps someone soft and sensitive like herself is just bad material for a dragonrider. That more than the love she has to give is needed. It is both the shovel that digs her through the hard times as she tries to find her place - a spot that is firmly Kinye shaped that only she can fill - and that buries her with the worries she digs up.

Her desire to outpour goodness mixed with her desire to find a proper place to be and topped off with a natural innocence she simply hasn't grown out of makes her a prime target for those who would want to take advantage of her. Whether it is for chores, or to try and see how far into trouble they could possibly get her, she will put full trust in the intentions of others long before she doubts them. This same natural innocence is a beacon for those looking for a cause to protect that could gather the sort of company that would keep her out of trouble, however. Or, perhaps, her brand of goodness could be the light that those muddled in the dark need to find themselves.
Positive Trait List Kind, Cheery, Determined, Trusting, Innocent
Negative Trait List Conflicted, Sensitive, Easily Manipulated, Naiive
History: One of the youngest children of a pair of High Reaches riders, Kinye has lived a fairly unremarkable but well-loved life. Barely 4 when her eldest sister impressed she barely has any memories of Ashlyn where she didn't just have her blue and just accepted Gyafrith as a part of her in the same way that her parents' dragons were a part of them. Dragons were simply a part of people's lives and it was only as she got older that she began to realize that there was more than simply waiting that made people upset after not impressing - but that some people simply after waiting so long, went on to be a single being not attached to a dragon.

It was perhaps this revelation that made Kinye seek out some other way to further herself and trekking on after her older sister, Demanthra, sought out the arts. However, unlike Ashlyn she didn't have a melodious voice and unlike Demanthra, she had no talent with an instrument or writing songs. Instead, Kinye found that she had an eye for things - finding and holding onto lost things, but also for capturing things with even a piece of charcoal and paper. While not yet old enough to be trusted with more difficult mediums by the other artists who visit High Reaches, Kinye took to drawing like a dragon to flying.

Knowing how strongly Demanthra wanted a dragon of her own, Kinye chose to stay off of the sands to keep from 'competing' with her older sister until she impressed safely. Since that has come to pass, Kinyegele has stood twice - once on a beach with a clutch that seemed so precious and sweet and definitely put her guard down and the second the most recent Double Clutch that....was a rollercoaster of emotions. Having already had a seed of doubt planted in her after the Tea Clutch, the Double Clutch planted something else in her.

A need to push herself to something more - or if she can't be that, to move on.

Other: Kinye has an eye for likenesses so her uh...questionable drawings are unmistakable in who they are meant to be. Whoops.

Green Metisoth
Written by Uta
Colored by Zaikt



Origin of Name: Metisoth derives her name from the Greek Titan, Metis. She was the daughter of Oceanus and Tethys; therefore, she was considered an Oceanid. She was the first wife of Zeus, and became the goddess of wisdom, prudence and deep thought.

Inspiration: The Heavenly Virtue of Prudence

Prudence (Latin: prudentia, contracted from providentia meaning "seeing ahead, sagacity" ) is the ability to govern and discipline oneself by the use of reason. It is classically considered to be a virtue, and in particular one of the four Cardinal virtues (which are, with the three theological virtues, part of the seven virtues). Prudentia is an allegorical female personification of the virtue, whose attributes are a mirror and snake, who is frequently depicted as a pair with Justitia, the Roman goddess of Justice.

The word derives from the 14th-century Old French word prudence, which, in turn, derives from the Latin prudentia meaning "foresight, sagacity". It is often associated with wisdom, insight, and knowledge. In this case, the virtue is the ability to judge between virtuous and vicious actions, not only in a general sense, but with regard to appropriate actions at a given time and place. Although prudence itself does not perform any actions, and is concerned solely with knowledge, all virtues had to be regulated by it. Distinguishing when acts are courageous, as opposed to reckless or cowardly, is an act of prudence, and for this reason it is classified as a cardinal (pivotal) virtue.

In modern English, the word has become increasingly synonymous with cautiousness. In this sense, prudence names a reluctance to take risks, which remains a virtue with respect to unnecessary risks, but, when unreasonably extended into over-cautiousness, can become the vice of cowardice.

In the Nicomachean Ethics, Aristotle gives a lengthy account of the virtue phronesis (Ancient Greek: ϕρόνησις), traditionally translated as "prudence", although this has become increasingly problematic as the word has fallen out of common usage. More recently ϕρόνησις has been translated by such terms as "practical wisdom", "practical judgment" or "rational choice".

Personality: Metisoth is a green dragon who knows how to keep her wits about her. She was seemingly hatched with an old soul and a nature that is wise beyond her Turns. Where some experiences might surprise her clutchmates, Metisoth seems to hold her own. Very little catches her off-guard, and when she is genuinely surprised, she'll absorb the experience and learn from it. She is a green who listens to her elders, and is often caught tending to her clutchmates. While they play, she might observe, or give direction and order. If ever there was a little mother of the clutch, this green might well be it.

On the one hand, her wisdom grants her understanding. Her clutchmates might come to her pained, but Metisoth will be able to bring just the right amount of comfort or give them whatever sort of care they might need. Her understanding allows her to listen, and better yet, allows her to give practical advice. She isn't the sort of dragon who lets her emotions rule her, and much prefers to consider each and every situation as it arises. In fact, Metisoth might well be considered too practical. She isn't the sort of green who has great passions, and when she does, she certainly refuses to let them rule them. No, instead, she will wait until the most perfect moment to make her move or take her stand and only then will she act.

Rest assured though, when Metisoth does decide to act, she will not hesitate or change her mind. She is the sort of dragon who makes decisions and follows them through--no matter the consequence. Metisoth likes to think she knows best, because in many situations this green does--but her actions are not always driven by good. She might be merciful to someone who wronged her, but she would never allow herself to be taken advantage of; she might consider to take a risky move during Threadfall, but would never, ever, allow herself to fall into some sort of reckless behavior. No, Metisoth is the sort of green who keeps herself tempered, and never does anything rashly, or with great haste.

Unfortunately, for all the good Metisoth can accomplish, she is not without her flaws. Her maternal and practical nature allow her to do great good, but it also can make her rather bossy and demanding. She is the sort of green who likes to care for her clutchmates, but that means telling them when they should restrain from something, or forcing her will upon them. She might be but a green, but she is not afraid of any color within the Weyr. Her care can easily be misplaced. While she is usually trying to look out for their well-being, she can stifle those around her by not allowing them to do things differently than she.

Worse, because she often enjoys the advantage of learning quickly, or knowing how to behave or act in a certain setting, Metisoth can easily come off as a know-it-all. Her way is often the right way, but it is by no means the only way. This isn't something the green often considers, and her rider will need to try to temper her. If not, she might well alienate some of her clutchmates early on or fail to connect with them.

Ultimately, Metisoth is a very good green. She wants the best for Hers, and her clutchmates, but she will need help connecting with them. She is not their mother, and things don't always have to be seen in a purely practical light.

Positive Traits: Maternal, Wise, Decisive
Negative Traits: Unbending, Know-It-All, Demanding

Egg: A small Avocado egg

Adult Size: 46'
Physical Attributes: Metisoth is neither too big, nor too small. She falls firmly in the middle as far as her weight and height happen to be, and is distinctly a very average green. She doesn't mind though, and is more than happy to be a classic, textbook case. This gives her the advantage of having the best of both worlds -- she is swift and agile, but not so small as to suffer when the fighting gets rough; nor is she too big to become an easier target. She is just right.

Additional Notes: Metisoth is a green who will fuss over her clutchmates, littles, and anyone who might be in need. She truly is a maternal sort, despite being a fighting dragon. She may yearn for eggs all her own, but she knows it's an impractical desire, and will keep it locked up tight in her hearts.

As far as flights go, Metisoth is very practical about the whole affair. She claims her preferences have no bearing on the outcome, and will instead choose the dragon who truly outperforms all the rest. That said, in terms of love, it is very possible Metisoth might find herself pining over a dragon who can get under her skin. Opposites attract, of course... and while Metisoth claims she would rather a practical match, it's also possible she might fall for someone who hasn't an ounce of practicality at all.

Impression Effect: Never again will Kinye ever need to fear that she is not doing enough, for as a fighting greenrider of Pern, she will be every bit as much of a hero as her dragon. Possessed with the increased confidence that only Impression can lend, Kinyegele is well on her way to becoming a woman in her own right. What fears she may have had will be instantly soothed. If anything, she will become even more herself than she has ever been before: sunshine incarnate.

Why Me? Kinyegele (demon_pachabel)

Oh dear sweet Kinyelege, Metisoth longs for nothing more than to take the best of care of you. This caring and maternal green will be ever so happy to tuck her rider under her wings - just as soon as she is large enough to do so. Fully as clever as any of the larger colors, Metisoth's wisdom will temper Kinye's trusting nature. Where Kinye might struggle to see what is before her very eyes, Metisoth will not fail to see exactly what another is trying to do to her rider. No longer will Kinyegele be so easy to take advantage of. A very clever girl indeed, Metisoth wanted and needed a rider who would appreciate all that she is. She is pushy, and could be at risk of overpowering her rider, but Kinye's innocence and sensitivity will keep this somewhat in check. For indeed, Metisoth would never want to harm her rider, and she'll never ever emulate anyone who might have pushed Kinyegele around.
