Kahrie and Gold Coin

Name: Kahrie
Age: 23
Orientation: Wouldn't you like to know
Gender: Female

Occupation: Candidate/Conwoman
Squad: None
Lodgings: The Flit

Appearance: Kahrie is absolutely petite when it comes to size. Not just in height but in build and weight. As far as height goes she stands at a mere 5'1" at her full growth. She is a rather light girl as far as weight goes. Yet she has never been certain about her actual weight thanks to it fluctuating frequently, although she never seems to weigh more than 130 pounds. She has managed to get herself a layer of muscle, although not much. Her body is just not one that forms and keeps muscle easily. In fact if it weren't for being rather active she would probably be rather scrawny.

Her skin is pale thanks to living her life in the 'neath. For the most part her skin is in very good complexion. The only exception to this is a small scar on her forehead, just below her hairline. It has been there ever since she was born, the result of a harsh birth. She has thin, pink lips and a rather small nose. Dimples show on her cheeks when she smiles. Her eyes are dark brown, almond shaped, and a little small compared to the rest of her face. Kahrie has long, dark brown hair that goes down to her shoulders.

Personality: When someone describes an old tale about a dragonrider they usually use a pleasant word to describe them. Kind, noble, loyal, honest, fearless, pure of heart, whatever those last one means. Well someone that knows Kahrie, a girl who happens to plan on becoming a dragonrider, might just be hard-pressed to connect one of those words to her. Dragonriders are often described as working hard to save Pern, always thinking of others before themselves. Well, the dragonriders of old anyway, but even now they are feared. In Kahrie's mind absolutely no one comes before her. Life is about survival, and in order to survive you need to help yourself first. This is something that she lives by and might not ever change her belief of.

If Kahrie sees something that she wants she will have it, one way or another. She has quite a few different ways to go about getting it, but there are two that she uses the most. The first is manipulating. Play with someone's emotions, make them love you, make them think you are on their side, and then take what you want. The other is just all-out stealing. It's very simple, after all. It just requires some stealth and smarts. Plus there is no guilt about it, not for her anyway. In fact Kahrie seems to have no problem with lying in general. After doing it for so long she is a bit of an impulsive liar. Of course she gives things back, just not to the person she took from and for a price. And then then the thing might not be of very high quality. She is, to put it simply, a con-artist.

Although she might not seem like it at first Kahrie is actually quite modest. No matter how much she wants something, how hard it might be to get what she wants, she will never use her body to do it. Sure she will wink or sway her hips a certain way but never something that involves taking her clothes off. For her that is reserved for two things, flights and love. Real, actual, sappy love. Part of her is annoyed that she actually believes in that stuff, especially that she wants it. And her habit of trying to push people away if they get too close doesn't make it easier either. But if someone gets close to her she will treasure them. Maybe not put them before herself or never betray them but treasure them all the same.

History: Kahrie was born in Benden Hold to a drudge woman, the result of a one-night stand. But she was not born alone. She had a twin sister, a twin sister and not enough technology or medical care for a safe birth. It was a hard birth, resulting in both her mother and her unnamed twin sister dying. But she did not get off unharmed. She was a sickly baby for the first turn of her life, it was a question of whether or not she would survive. But she did and soon after she turned two turns old she began to thrive. For a while she was taken care of by various women throughout the hold, but at six turns old she was fostered off to High Reaches Hold in order to spread the gene pool. Her foster mother, Maranya, was not a sweet woman. Although she did not mistreat the child Kahrie got it into her head that she was awful and began to misbehave.

She was twelve turns old when little outbursts or stunts turned into real trouble. She began to lie, steal, and manipulate her fellow holdbrats. Maranya was enraged by this and tried her very best to push that out of her. The woman became more strict, tightening the already harsh rules that restricted the child. For some children it might have worked. Not Kahrie. She only got worse, lashing out, screaming, and taking whatever she wanted. By fifteen turns old she had become quite the kleptomaniac with an incredible lying streak. Not to mention that she was more than a little good at manipulating others by then. A little misbehaving had turned into all-out rebellion. At sixteen turns old she had decided that she had enough with this holder shaffit. She hitched a ride on a passing trader caravan and began to travel with them.

This went on for quite some time. Four turns, as a matter of fact. She had found herself a little home with the 'traders', which in reality were nothing more than a group of liars and thieves that had stolen a few wagons and runners. Just the way she liked it. When they stopped at different places she would have some fun, stealing, messing with people, humiliating people just for the sake of it, making sure she got what she wanted. This went on with no trouble for quite some time. It was not until the caravan entered the 'neath for a product restock that something changed. Kahrie was only going to lurk around Igen for a few days, claiming that she was a visiting dignitary while stealing a few things here and there.

While there she attended a hatching and soon after, just before she was going to leave, a rider approached her and said that she had the potential to be a candidate. And so, on what could probably be considered a whim, she chose to stay and try her luck. Little did she know that even after three turns she would fail to impress, also she did impress a gold 'neath lizard who she named Coin and proceeded to use in some more tricks and traps.

Name: Coin
Age: 3

Color: Gold
Hex Code: ffe999

Appearance: Coin is a very, very light shade of gold. She might even be called a little dull if it weren't for the very noticeable metallic sheen covering her hide. Not to mention her size. To be frank Coin is large for a gold, edging in on the largest possible size for one. But that's not all. This gold is a bit... erm... large. Whenever she helps her with a new scheme Kahrie rewards Coin with a treat, and she has helped her with many schemes and as such has received many awards. And she is not without markings either. Bright orangish gold stripes travel sideways down her back, providing a nice contrast from her otherwise pale hide.

Personality: As a 'neath lizard Coin has the ability to speak. Oh, and she certainly uses it to her advantage. Coin has plenty of things to say and absolutely everyone will hear it. Gossiping is something she adores, gossip, lies, and the spread of rumors. Of the gossiping and rumors she takes a particular love in spreading rumors about couples. Not just couples, no, couples that aren't couples. Coin is a self-proclaimed cupid and absolutely loves trying to make those that hate love.

While she is a horrible secret keeper there is one person she won't tell on. That person happens to be her person, her Kahrie. After all, Kahrie is the giver of the treats, and she loves treats. So she helps her bonded as much as possible in her little scams and tricks and get more rewards. Not to mention that she has never told on her yet, knowing that doing so could end the treat-giving. There is only one limit to what she won't do for her treat-giver, and that thing is giving away her real eggs to someone she does not approve of as a favor.
