Name: Roana
Age: 19
Sex: female
Sexual Orientation: Nicarasexual (only has eyes for her girlfriend.)
Craft: Sea crafter (Pirate/smuggler)
Rank: Apprentice
Location: Rivercrest
Physical Description: The biggest thing about Roana is her hair, it's naturally a huge mess of dark reddish brown curls and sticks out at all angles making her look like some sort of wild child. Occasionally she'll try and tame it with bands and clips and it helps, but only a little. She is also a tall women hitting between 5'10 - 5'11.

The rest of her body is slender and all very angular, she had no obvious curves to speak of and a boyish flat chest. Her eyes are narrow and dark brown, her nose is a little to long and slightly snubbed at the end, her lips are plump but her mouth is wide. Her skin is mocha tan and despite her youth already getting some of the leather look from being out in the sun too long and too often. Her face is spared to some degree shaded by her hair she has kept it free of most blemishes. She is striking to look upon, even intimidating to some people but she rarely gets complimented on her looks for beauty.
When it comes to clothes she tends to stick with deep dark but vibrant colours like blues, greens, reds and purples. Going about her day to day duties she will wear shirts with jerkins and tight leather pants that won’t restrict her movement to much.

Like most in her 'profession' she also has a liking for jewellery. Gold being a particular favourite she adorns herself in hope earnings and looped bracelets. However sometimes its better to hide such valuables so she wears a small leather pouch on a string around her neck where they caan all be tucked away should the need arise.

If you want an idea of what she looks like and what her hair is like this is the best REF I could find. Though obiously it's Ro when she was much younger. And her hair is cut slightly shorter and a bit more wild.

Ro's hair is almost an entity all of it's own. If she failed to impress, but her hair did, I would not be surprised.

Personality: A side effect from coming from a very large family then going into an even more noisy and active environment. Roana Knows how to make herself heard. Her voice is loud and proud and she has no qualms about making her options known. That doesn’t mean she doesn’t understand that other people lie and keep things close to their chest, she just doesn’t see the point. Victory to the loudest!

She is overly dismissive of other people’s ideas when they are too far removed from her own thought process. They are clearly ignorant and probably should be kept from breeding for the good of the human race.

She’ll tell them so as well, just using enough sarcasm to make them unsure if she is serious or not. Sarcasm is something she uses a lot.

She is also very self-assured, most of the time. She knows what she can do and what she can’t and she is okay with that. She can tie a knot in fifty different ways but ask her to sing and she’ll laugh and tell you she would rather spare people that trauma. Her reading and writing skills are also very basic. She hates it when people try and force her to try things she knows she is bad at. Push her too far out of her comfort zone and she becomes stubborn, defensive and even angry.

Being brought up around seacrafter’s she loves the sea, the wide open waters, the freedom of it all and being able to explore the world with men and women she calls family. She hates being confined and the ocean is her first love. She also swears like a true born seacrafter. Her swearing become particularly bad when she loses her temper. She has endless patience but very little tolerance. In other words, try and fail and you will be fine. Refuse to stop being a sharding dimglow and she’ll bite your head off. If someone keeps pushing her beyond that point it is very likely to come to blows. She very much lives up to the stereotype of the fiery redhead.

When her temper isn’t blowing maturity out the window Roana has a good head on her shoulders. She may not be educated academically (and frankly has no desire to be) but she is smart with plenty of common sense. A good person to have around when things get tough. People have the ability to push all her wrong buttons but if it’s an unavoidable situation (get caught in a rock slide, lost in a storm ect) she remains calm and level headed just trying to find the best way out.

And she is a good person at heart, she’s social and she wants to help, she cares especially deeply about family and friends. If someone can get on her good side and stay there then they can always count on her.

Positive Trait List
+ Confident in her own abilities
+ Friendly
+ Good use of common sense
+ Level headed in a crisis.

Negative Trait List
- Loud and bossy
- dismissive of others ideas.
- Quick and sometimes violent temper
-stubborn when pushed
- Sarcastic

History: Roana Spent the first few years of life in a small house and small amount of land where her parents grew enough food to be self-sustaining and long grass with which her mother weaved baskets to sell. It was a happy family and her parents were very close. With three even four children this remained manageable but by the time Roana Came along she was the seventh. One of her previous siblings had died during infancy but the house was still feeling very crowded. And her mother was pregnant again. It was a good household, lively and full of good amount of love. Her parents knew they could not cope however so the children were slowly pushed out for family members to foster.

Both her parents had fairly large families themselves which provided plenty of uncles and aunts for them to go to.
Where they could Roana’s parents tried to give their children a choice to where they wanted to go and who with. Most opted to stay in the small cot hold not far from where their parents lived, but Everyone’s favourite uncle was Uncle Rembone or ‘uncie Remmy’ for the youngest in the family. He was a seacrafter, a salty old seadog with a million stories and always a bag of gifts for his nieces and nephews. If Roana had to leave her parents she wanted to go with Remmy and no one else. Her parents were sceptical even straight out said ‘no’ the first time it was voiced by their daughter. Even her uncle said it was not a good idea, despite the fact he would love having her aboard. Roana was persistent and at last it was agreed that she would be allowed to go with him onto his ship and train to be a sea crafter but she would have to wait a few years and see if she changed her mind. She didn’t. And on her seventh turn she left with her uncle and joined his crew on his ship. ‘The sea ghost’.

Roana loved it on board the ship. All the crew members spoiled her rotten. As the captains niece she enjoyed some special privileges such as a bunk in the captain’s chambers but she still had to work and learn (and if you’ll pardon the pun) she took to it like a fish to water. Officially The sea ghost was a merchant and trading ship but Roana soon learnt that it was more. They were not above smuggling and other pirate activities. Especially if any ship from the north was foolish enough to stray in to their waters.
They knew port home in Rivercrest hold and Roana loved the hold almost as much as the ship. And although she went back to see her family and 11 brothers and sisters as often as she could her home was her ship and Rivercrest. Most of all she loved uncle Remmy deeply. Her uncle promised her that he would make her a seacraft master and when he went the ship would be hers. The crew were her second family. They even brought her a pretty boy whore for her birthday. (There was a mix up and her was as gay as rainbows and they just spent all night talking) But the intention was good, if sleazy. When her uncle found out he kicked all their asses much to her amusement.

They were at sea when the first thread in ten generations hit Pern. Close enough to the hold that when a stray thread ate through the hull of The sea ghost the crew were quickly picked up by other ships in the area that had seen their distress. However the sea ghost sunk below the waters. Uncle Remmy would have gone down with the ship if not for Roana who refused to leave without him. When they got back to rivercrest the dragons had taken to the air and protected the hold but their home and livley hood where gone. It was also clear that Remmy resented Roana for making him leave, for he had nothing left to live for. Without work the crew dispersed and Roana was left at a loose end trying to cheer up her uncle as he became more and more determined to drink away his sorrows.



Other: She is very agile able to clamber about high rigging with relative ease.
Not too bad in a fight either she was brought up on a ship and in seacrafter taverns where brawls where common, her uncle insisted she know how to defend herself and she is skilled in bare hand self-defence, using her enemies weight and momentum against them. She is also good with a knife and carries one at her hip at all times.

Green Ulendoth
Written by Uta
Colored by ShinosBee


User Image

Origin of Name: As the Disney film was about a girl on a great adventure, it is only fitting that Ulendoth's name follows suit. This green is named after the translation of 'adventure' in the Nyanja language, which is ulendo.

Inspiration: How Far I'll Go - Moana

"How Far I'll Go" is a song from Disney's 2016 animated feature film Moana. It was written and produced by Lin-Manuel Miranda. The song was performed in the film by American actress and singer Auliʻi Cravalho in her role as Moana. It was released along with the album on November 18, 2016.

"How Far I'll Go" was composed as Moana's "I Want" song, following in the long tradition of "I Want" songs in 1990s Disney animated musicals. It replaced an earlier attempt called "More", for which the demo version recorded by Marcy Harriell was released as an outtake on the deluxe version of the soundtrack album. Although Miranda has stressed that he is still "very proud of" the song as a first draft, "More" was not good enough in retrospect because it merely expressed Moana's vague desire to see more since she had already figured out everything about the island. In contrast, "How Far I'll Go" expresses a deeper, richer message: Moana's struggle with the irresistible impulse to explore beyond the reef notwithstanding her genuine love for her island, her family, and her people. As Miranda explained to People: "To me that's much more complicated than, 'I hate it here and I want to get out,' ... To say, ‘I love it here, I love my parents, but why can't I stop walking to the ocean and fantasizing about getting out of here?' And questioning that instinct? It's even more confusing. And that's a valid story too."

Personality: Ulendoth hatched out of the egg ready to go! Life is one big adventure, and this green is absolutely ready to take it by storm. There is no place too far for this green to go, no mountain too high for her to cross, no ocean to wide for her to fly over. Honestly, this green is gnawing at the bit to be free, and it will be up to her rider to rein her in.

Unfortunately, her rider will have a bit of a challenge in herding Ulendoth's focus. This green tends to be headstrong, and doesn't have any problem standing up for her beliefs. When she wants something, she'll get it--and just you try to keep her from it! This green knows how to out stubborn a mule and will dig her claws in until the other party gives up, or gives in. Only a gold's command will force her to change her ways--or her rider. If her rider really wants her to do something, Ulendoth will likely grudgingly give in, but her rider had better put her foot down firmly, otherwise this green will do as she pleases.

To make matters worse, she's known for being impulsive. Ulendoth tends to be a doer, and can sometimes act first and only think about it later. Once she's got an idea to do something, you can bet this green will likely act. The same goes with her thoughts and opinions. She has no trouble telling someone her feelings, and isn't known to sugar-coat or hold back. She's a green with Strong Feelings, and you will hear about them, along with her rider, and any other dragon nearby. This can and often will get her in trouble.

Lastly, and perhaps the trait that gets her in the most trouble is the fact that Ulendoth is all about breaking with tradition. She doesn't want to just be at the bottom of the totem pole. No, this green knows she meant for greatness, and she wants to shake things up! She will certainly try to muscle her way through the ranks, though she likely won't find much traction. She might bemoan her fate to Krahsujunth or Fianth, and potentially yearn for the day she can be free as Rixth. Isn't the world much larger than Threadfall? Would they really miss one green, especially one who they won't allow rise up in the ranks? Ulendoth honestly likes to shake things up, and fight the system, though it might well cause her rider no amount of trouble.

Positive Traits: Spirited, Intrepid, Courageous
Negative Traits: Non-Traditional, Impulsive, Headstrong

Adult Size: 27'
Physical Attributes: Large for her color, this green dragon has curves in the right places. She is soft for a dragon, but not at all out of shape, or overweight. She is big boned, and large, and certainly able to take a hit, as well as pack a punch, when she tries. Her wings are large, and though her takeoffs aren't exactly graceful, once on wing, she is all about showing off her tricks and aerial maneuvers. Her head knobs are a bit stubby, and her tail a little shorter than most, but she's still a lovely lady!

Additional Notes: Ulendoth will love the sea and all things water. She is particularly fond of beaches and will beg to see the water anytime she is able. Beach trips are particularly alluring for this green, as are trips away from the Weyr. She takes a bit after Rixth in this regard.

As for Flights, they're an adventure, and Ulendoth won't hesitate to fly frequently. Her flights do tend to be long for a green, usually the full half-hour, and rarely over the same area twice!

Theme Song: How Far I'll Go by Diamond White & KHS

Egg: A medium sized green egg with green cracks painted upon it sits loser to the back of the clutch. Let's go, let's go, let's go, it seems to say.

Why Me? Come on Roana! Let's blow this joint and have some fun! Honestly, while there were many adventurous spirits among the Candidates, there was only one who was her most perfect match. Like rider like dragon, both of these ladies have a love for the sea. You can bet Ulendoth is going to ask her a million questions until she can see it for herself, and will enjoy spending ample time at the lake no matter the season. Both are strong, capable spirits, and Ulendoth is certain that once they can fly, there is no place Roana won't take her!

These two may be a bit like fire and oil. Roana's headstrong nature could only spur on Ulendoth's impulsive nature; on that same token, the girl is strong enough, and has enough common sense, to keep this dragon in line especially when she wants to fight the system. There's a time and place for upending things, and if Roana wants to say out of trouble, she'll know how to keep Ulendoth in line. Honestly, Ulendoth needs a bit more guidance. Life might be a great adventure, but there's more to it than just having fun or travelling the world. And there won't be much of a world left without Threadfighters!

For her part, Ulendoth adores her rider. She knows Roana knows how to have fun, and could never be with someone who wasn't at least a bit playful. She will enjoy her sharp tongue and be her wings when she needs to taste a bit of freedom. They will make a very accomplished threadfighting pair...provided Roana can get Ulendoth to focus. Thread is its own adventure too, after all, and who doesn't like to play hero?

Other candidates At first Ro was still finding her feet in the hold then she quickly became attached to Nicara, seeking her out whenever she got any spare time so she hasn't really gotten to know or befriend her fellow candidates

Other pirates an sea fearing folk: Ro has settled and got comfortable at the weyr but in her heart of hearts she still yearns for the sea, it would be great for to be able to keep that connection by finding others like herself who long for the waves. Maybe even take a trip to the coast an take a small boat out on the waves.
