Word spreads quickly around the Kshau Protectorate, that there is a flight for romance, a flight for lovers, a Valentine's Day flight at Cy Dragonstake!
At Cy, where the flight was being held, an odd pair of distantly-Kshau dragons flew overhead. Their riders saw one another, but only from afar. A pair of dragons so very unlike one another, and riders who are utterly different!
"What are you doing here?" Seka, the siamese-grey point colored Unicorn morph asked of the human looking man.
"Well, I don't know about you, but I'm here for the flight. There's a Valentine's day flight on, you know." He nudged her, and half-wittingly makes her stomach rumble in distress. It's been such a long time since he'd been able to really cause some havoc among people. A flight looked to be the perfect place. So many people gathered together, so many folks wondering if they were going to find love or betray one they already had... yes!
Seka didn't much like the look in this red-rider's eye, but she gazed at his Glenn dragon and recognized it instantly. "That's a fire red, isn't it?"
"Yes, from Keltic Rose Isle." Pylori said proudly. "I'm Pylori, by the way."
Seka didn't shake his hand, with her hoofed one. She looked at him funny. "... Pylori... Isn't that the name of a... Well, it couldn't be. Your name is your name."
"Oh, no, it is," Pylori said, smirking fiercely. "I'm the son of Virus, and I," he drew himself up proudly, "was the first of our group to bond! Apakk is a lovely girl, isn't she?"
"... Virus?" Seka said, looking worried.
"Oh, don't get all huffy," Pylori said, draping his arm around her shoulders. "You're a unicorn anyway. How much damage could an ulcer possibly do to you?"
"Not much, no." Seka got a strange glint in her eye. "But I bet you would be able to torture my father greatly..."
Female, hatched at Ryslen Weyr's 2001 Flurry
Ridden by Seka, female age ??? (she's a unicorn, she's immortal!)
Caelestith is a silly, rather fun loving. She would prefer to have found her own flight by herself, but since this will afford her an opportunity to have some select males of a certain type, she'll be happy to fly her best. She's always wanted to fly.
Seka and her father Siban are not on friendly terms most days. He's tried to kill her on occasion, attempting to steal the power in her horn to work dark magicks. Seka knows he won't interfere in this flight, but had it been anywhere else he might have sent his own sapphire black dragon to it.
Seka is an experienced mage and thief, concentrating more on doing a good job and keeping friendships, than her father's power-hungry ways.
Red Apakk, Fire dragon
Female, hatched at Keltic Rose Isle
Ridden by Pylori, young offspring of cloned Virus.
Apakk is a "bit of a troublemaker" mostly because she is apt to do pranks and less-than-practical airborne jokes on people. Things like strafing runs on villages and stealing food animals from farms. She puts them back! Honest! Apakk is looking foward to finding a mate here. But she isn't sure who will want to pair with her rider. Since he's a he and all. Maybe there will be a nice girl who likes getting stomach aches. Apakk can speak telepathically to her rider, but also speaks aloud in a grumbling voice.
Pylori is a strange young man, with pale skin and dark brown hair, intense eyes and a bit of a dangerous smirk. He knows how annoying he can be, along with his Baiton Snapper and his dragoness Apakk. Pylori has the power to create ulcers (that's what Pylori is, it's a bacterium in fact, not a virus at all) and generally make people uncomfortable when he's nearby. But, he also has a soft streak and loves attention. So he has a carefully crafted ability in healing as well as his control over sicknesses.
Yes, I know, this is in fact a picture of Kevin Bacon. However... yum. Yup - that's Pylori all right.
