High Princess Dominica

Seven years younger than her half brother Almiron, with the same mother. Her father is a dramatically handsome dark-skinned dragon-rider/musician. His flair for charismatic action and physical activities carries through in Dominica. Her mother's talent for showing off and clever manipulation is Dominica's as well.

Dominica was born far from Dun Keiba, while her mother was traveling and making contacts for her patrons there. With a touring band of foreign dragon riders (they had dragons, not draks) her mother found their guitarist irresistable. That only goes to show - he IS irresistable. Within a couple months, it was plain that dominica's mother was pregnant, and she chose to continue touring with the father and his group, rather than face her lover at Dun Keiba.

Little Dominica made her strange psionic abilities apparent even before she was born. Several weeks before her birth, Dominica's curious, open mind began to dream within her mother's body - even to the point of interrupting and usurping the adult's dreams.

She continues to have this power into her adult life, and does not hide it. When Dominica is with a lover or sleeping near another person, she tends to invade their dream scape and can both control and communicate with those people.

When Dominica was six years old, her mother decided to come back to Dun Keiba with her. While it was quite a surprise to see Almiron's mother again after this long, she was welcomed into the family - she was obviously very important to her mother, and that made her important to Almiron's father too.

The young boy of 13 took to his sister instantly. Perhaps his empathic abilities and her dream shaping worked together, or they just hit it off. Either way, they have been almost inseperable since then. Her extensive travels with her mother at such a young age counter balance her brother's seemingly permanent residence at the Castle. She loves to visit other places, while he often remains there.

When Almiron was Judged to stand for a Drak, Dominica watched with great interest. But while he was off in training several years later, she had to keep to her own education and training.

Dominica loves to watch people, but more: she loves to be seen. She began to show signs of being even more shapely than her mother, when she was only 12, but she'd long been involved in making the clothing and such for her father's band. She loved to listen to their music, but never had much talent for any instruments. Instead, she turned to a sort of psychology and public-relations type of job.

While Almiron greets visitors to Dun Keiba, Dominica is usually found in the Drak areas or down in the infirmary tending to people. Her strength in body is also found in her mind - though she is often boisterous and loud (like her father) she is still quite charming. People who are experiencing trauma calm down around Dominica, and she is quite welcome there.

Dominica and her brother both took bright white tattoos on their faces when they had both paired with their Draks. She was much younger than he when she Paired, and it was very nearly by accident when she did so. He had returned with his fantastic Opal to rule the roost in Dun Keiba's caverns, protecting the clutch which had been laid by a wounded and dying Ore dragoness. The 13 year old Dominica sprinted to the sands and latched on to one of the freshly-laid eggs. Since the mother of the clutch could hardly stop her, Dominica continued to return to the sands, and eventually paired with the dragon who sprang from the egg she'd fondled.

Wind Zariyapar practically flew from her egg at the young woman, and they have enjoyed each other's company ever since. While most of Dominica's knight training was done at Dun Keiba, she insisted upon also heading out to other Castles to be taught by their trainers. With this experience under her belt, a 18 year old Dominica assumed the mantle of High Princess when Almiron was given his title as well.

Dominica's almost outrageous tastes in clothing is also mirrored in her taste in men, or on occasion women. Her step father's exasperation at the situation between his son and his mate's daughter gives them all something to laugh about - when they argue about who would look better upon whose arm.

Zariyapar is more likely to take a longer term mate than her male counterpart, if for no other reason than to confound her rider.

Name: Zariyapar
Gender: Female
Size/Shoulder/Length: small bipedal, 6'9" h b / 31' l / 45' and 43' ws
Colors: Wind; body very pale white-mottled cyan; wingsails brightly reflective sky blues with variation due to angles; mane cyan and sky gently graded

Powers: Winged Flight, Zariy is delicate but amazingly agile in the air, given her color type! Speedy, but not remarkably strong, she's one who will zip around in the corner of your vision before making a dramatic entrance
Portal Production, equally confident with portals, she can use her speed to distract and move between spaces that are within view back and forth almost as a blur, even changing direction while flying but maintaining her portals. She truly does 'think with portals'
Verbal Speech and strong empathic link, a high and chiming voice, with a very strong shout when needed. Connected with Dominica strongly but has the ability to ignore whatever the high Princess is doing and often 'forgets' to tell her things...
Acid Spit, while she is definitely able to do this, it's not clear whether she's ever spat at a thing in her life
Parentage: unknown Ore mother -ar, unknown sire ap-
Mate/Offspring: Plant M Heldiadu; Dun Keiba clutch 1
