General Description:
Zarah is fairly proportionate but does have more leg than trunk and stands about five feet six inches, which is a little taller than her birth mother. She has dirty blonde hair that when unbound, falls to mid-back. Her eyebrows are slightly darker and she has blue eyes, high cheekbones, a full bottom lip while her upper is somewhat slim, and Zarah has a slightly square jaw.General Dressing Style:
It depends on when you catch her, really. She works better in trousers, so finding her in a dress would be something of a special occasion (like Gather), but she usually manages to wear what's clean and considered decent. She has an awful lot of pieces embroidered but usually wears tunics and trousers that are pretty lived in, as she can be found creating glass and clay pieces when she isn't going to another candidate class or doing chores, etc.Lauren German

General Personality:
She's smart and she knows it but she doesn't flaunt it, though it stands out in her sharp wit and dry humour. Zahrah is one of the most loyal people you'll probably meet, though she left Ista for Benden when it opened. At twenty-seven, she's pretty sure she won't Impress at Ista, so who knows? Maybe Benden will be another shot at a dragon? She's an optimist and continues to be so when the cards aren't particularly in her favour. Zahrah is fairly superstitious about between and Thread and even if she's more than a little frightened by the Red Star and the whole death from above thing, she's willing to fight the infernal stuff if that's what's demanded of her. It's a brave face, one that will show when it needs to and then some.

Offspring:
Zarel (10yr old daughter)
Secrets:
She thinks fighting dragons are perfect and really wants to Impress one. Let the other ladies have gold. Her father's death hit her really, really hard, so she's determined to Impress. And then she Impressed Gold.
Known:
She's well known for her quick work and excellent craftsmanship in glass and clay and the fulfillment of some weird things people want in glass. Especially ladies.
Important History:
713-BornDifficult birth. Parents decided to not have anymore children after Saray almost died. They had been trying for quite some time, so they have put in the effort to make sure that Zahrah knows she is loved.
715-720
They move to the Southern Continent, living off the land for a while, and then Katila when the dragons are called together.
Zahrah is delighted with with her mother's glasscrafting (and enjoys playing with clay) but also wants to stand for clutches and someday ride a dragon like her father. She Stands for clutches and does her best to help out around Katila if she can. Otherwise, it's Saray and her kiln, learning and learning.
725-728
14
Rebuilding after the storm is a hard job but Zahrah does so without complaint.
Father Z'reen dies in betweening accident. Saray pours herself into glasscrafting and Zarah keeps herself busy between Candidacy and Impression. She does not Impress, however, but she trains under her mother, helping her at every opportunity.
732
18
Involved with a Candidate, Dannel. Fall pregnant with Zarel. Easy birth, no complications. Dannel and she think of hand fasting but eventually don't. She gets a firelizard egg, one among any others given out, netting her a brown she names Shard. She teaches him all sorts of tricks and he turns out to be an excellent messenger.
734
Late 734, she joins those moving North at Telgar.
736
23
Zahrah opts to go to Ista wh bringing her daughter with her. Her mother decides to come with her.
Mid-736
She helps out to make Ista Weyr livable, like every one else who came and does so with cheerful optimism.
Zee's clay and glasswork, especially her etching and dragon sculptures earn her interest at Gather, which encourages her experiments with clay and her little chip-glass mosaic lamp work.
738
25
Wildfires on Ista Island prove her bravery as she helps everywhere she can and runs herself ragged in the process. She actually helps as a second rider on a brown, helping to pass buckets of water and quench the fires.
And she still hasn't Impressed. While she would miss her mother, she actively looks for a Weyr transfer as a home base, though it takes her two turns when Benden opens up to decide where she wants to go. Something different can also mean a change in mindset.
741-27
Gathers her things (and daughter, Zarel) and moves to Benden as a Candidate. She writes her mother every few days and includes hide sketches of what she's working on. As a parting present, her mother gives her a small oval portrait of her father and his blue.
741-27 (02.14.742) Impresses golden Sedath, something that continues to surprise her.

Education
Details:
Her mother taught her everything he knows about glasswork and while she has no formal education in it, Zahrah produces fantastic art and items that usually go for sale at Gather or are traded for other goods. Her glass and clay dragons are very popular as they have room for small candles that set the artwork ablaze with colour.She is able to read after doubling down on it with her mother, mathematics isn't her strongest but it works for what she does with her little crafting projects.

Weyrlinghood
Baby appearance: A tubby pale colored gold with lemony highlights, Sedath is a plump little baby dragon, starting out on the smaller side and only barely bigger than some of her clutchmates.Sedath
Adulthood
Unlike her mother, Sedath maintains a softer femininely plump build into adulthood. No one would think to call her fat though, she moves with a light step and easy grace that emphasizes a delicate softness. The paler creamy shades in her hide spread, bordered by swirls of deeper gold along her legs, belly, and upper surface of her wings with a sharper swirl on the underside. Her head, the back of her neck, and most of her tail are a warm shade of gold.Mindvoice
Bright and bouncy when she's happy, though it quickly can turn petulant and pouty when she's upset.Personality
Sedath is a charming dragon who knows she's gorgeous. She enjoys flirting with bronzes, only the best will do for her after all! And she deserves the best in all things as far as she's concerned. Despite her prissy nature and her tendency towards vanity, Sedath is very loving and affectionate towards those she's close to. She's not very chatty with other people, considering herself too good for such trivial communications, but she will eventually make an exception her rider's family.Despite her rather delicate and fussy demeanor Sedath is not one to shrink from trouble and is able to face even things that concern her bravely.
Quirks
Mannerisms: Sedath squints a lot, whether from worry, disappointment, confusion, suspicion, curiosity, or even just quietly thinking to herself.Likes:
Dancing - Sedath loves to watch people dance, there's just something so lovely about it.
Mirrors - It's nice to be able to clearly see herself in their reflection.
Trinkets - Sedath loves trinkets with all of their lovely little colors and pretty shapes. She especially loves when they're used to decorate those she cares about or herself.
Dislikes:
Swimming - Sedath doesn't like swimming or getting overly wet. She'll bathe for cleaning, but even that isn't something she enjoys; she puts up with it as a necessity.
Mud - Sedath hates being dirty because it means she has to be cleaned more, but mud is especially offensive since it's so much harder to remove and it just feels awful and gross.
Trinkets - While Sedath does like trinkets she only likes certain ones, the ones that look the best of course. Unfortunately her tastes fluctuate and a bauble she loved one day could be despised the next for being too gaudy or just wrong for the look she's feeling.
Strengths:
Brave - Sedath is a confident dragon, but even when she's unsure she's willing to bravely face whatever uncertainty or fear that is in her way.
Forgiving of those beneath her station - She's willing to forgive honest mistakes from those who are beneath her station. She doesn't have the same expectations for those dragons as she would of someone of her station, and understands that mistakes can happen.
Flaws:
Arrogant and Vain - The easiest way to upset Sedath is to say her pale decorated hide is anything except gorgeous. She thinks so highly of herself that she sometimes ignores outside advice, thinking that she knows best.
Prissy - A prim and proper lady, Sedath frequently finds herself aghast at rude behavior, especially about anything she deems inappropriate or nontraditional. She's easily offended by such transgressions, occasionally taking them far too personally.
