Family
Powers |
Family Ties and Sisters - has a very large family, with all girl siblings, that they can tap into for learning (Any Skill Cluster at 3), working, or passing the buck to when things go wrong. She is the eldest, with a Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior grade pack of them attending at any given time... and she isn't the only one to be in this list... (though four is all I'll be documenting whew). This group of girls all have a strong empathic (and in some cases telepathic) bond to one another, and regardless of their distance or even being on different worlds/dimensions, they know where each other are at all times, though they have all learned to ignore each other when needed for concentration or privacy. They can each rely on one another for help, extra eyes and ears, hands for doing hard work, and keeping secrets. They will never betray one another, but they aren't always honey-sweethearts with the whole group, they have their spats and their disagreements, but they all agree to disagree about certain things, unless everyone in the family all realizes 'something is off'. They won't hesitate to get outside help from their extended relatives, or even just 'other people', in those cases where their sister won't or can't extract themselves from a situation. Be it having detention for something they didn't do, or did do, or being enamored of - or by - someone that is Bad News, they'll all pitch in to help work it out

Powers |
Velcro(tm) - able to pick up and stick small items to themselves, as long as they can reach it they can stick it and somehow carry it all (removal might be tricky); This ability is likely due to the dragon but... she did it before Lulu hatched. So, maybe two telekinetics are better than one? The tweak that Divi has with this is, once it's on her person, not only can other people not see or detect these things, she can retrieve it unfailingly - this is more likely a 'hammerspace' power than mere telekinetics
Telepathy With Non-Family - Though modest and fairly specific, Diviari is capable of sensing and speaking with other telepaths within about 50 meters, and is easily sensed and communicated to by any telepathic mind. She exploits this ability with her information siphoning below
Dragon Riding - with her whole family here riding dragons she has quite a bit of expertise from watching Oradeli and others. She knows the place of a queen on a wing: up front. However with her tiny size and other abilities it is very clear that Divi and Lulu will be set on other duties such as diplomatic and scouting missions, tithing (if that's even still a thing on Alskyr) and delivering important messages across dimensions. As below, her dragon takes care of the telepathic and draconic commands while she deals with the people

Clusters 21 |
*Adaptable Skill Clusters +3 Shared with whichever siblings are within 500 meters, Divi listens in to her sisters and casually plucks information from their minds and with a mental nudge she can even tap muscle memory though this requires her to actively practice with that sibling for a few minutes to get the hang of it. These skills somewhat rapidly fade but will remain permanently with each of them shouldering a little here and there
Information Adept +4 It isn't merely her family that she can access, as she is able to consciously siphon information, similarly to how some Zekirans do it, when that information is in an 'unprotected brain' nearby. She must be within about 10 feet, just out of arm's reach, and it's best with touch and a willing participant. Her own mind is an absolute library of memories and ideas, and she's hoping that the spooky Fettel brother, Paxton, can help her sort through that library like he does with his girlfriend... The information she can gather is generally restricted to 'recent events' but if something is very strongly in a person's memory, like overwhelming guilt or super-suspicious paranoia, she'll be able to suss out what exactly those things are about. But mostly she will use this to organize and make sure everyone's on the same page for group activities, such as 'wing riding' with dragons
Dragon Care and Riding +3 With a little dragon the duties are far easier! And she knows it, honestly... But she does still know all about their needs, their limits, and what's needed to ride safely. She is careful to attend to non-dragon specific points: learning how to teleport, understanding where and when any given place exists, and other 'side' duties, so she has a lot of maps and background information, but suppliments it with the 'can I shake your hand I'm such a fan please tell me all about your location' it's because then she can directly access that information to show up right when and where they're needed without poring over dusty star charts. She does tend to ride without a harness but whenever any official duties come up she's in full gear with a proper harness though neither she nor her dragon need them to keep things close and safe...

Skills 16 |
Rules, Regulations, and How To Avoid Them +4 Though she is most certainly all about being presentably a 'queen rider', Divi knows better than to actively want to be a weyrwoman. She loves being in the sky, being on the move, and otherwise interacting with people, not just paperwork. She's incredibly good at that paperwork because she wants to be done with it and back into the skies. Her family background and connections to Alabaster mean that this is part and parcel: they expect a Lady to handle business opportunities and interaction, but they also expect riders to want to explore and blow off steam in different ways. You only need to look as far as Lord Rider Engell and his family for that to be proven...
Will Take Command If You Don't Do It Right +4 Though she is not directly responsible for queenly duties, there is zero doubt in anyone's mind that she is completely capable of doing so. She'll try delegation and she'll try wiggling out of duties, but if there isn't anyone, or particularly if there is a bad leader involved, she will pull rank, puff up, and be the queen rider. With the backup of her sisters and all their collected ideas, she can become a spearpoint, not a figurehead, and gets right on the things that she's found lacking. The effect of this is that if she must assume command, everyone on the team will gain a +3 skill bonus for anything the team is required to do. She can add a +2 if she is considered the 'wing second' and complements the existing leadership accordingly

Collects Unusual Friends +4 Most of Divi's friend group are from disparate dimensions, species, and backgrounds. She is one of those 'ruling class that would rather be a merchant' types after all, and enjoys hanging out with Zeddians and Zekirans, Gelgelans and Kin alike. This strongly supplements the family's 'information base' and can offer new insights when things get stale
Fashionable +3 Even though she does prefer to dress in simpler but nice-feeling outfits like that above, Divi is a Lady after all, and under other circumstances would be expected to be in full dressy outfits all the time. If she needs to help someone get dolled up, she's right there on it!

Other Info |
All the girls live in the dragonry group housing, and as each one has impressed they move into their new suitably-sized private weyrs in the Magical Housing area. This allows them to more easily access their homeworlds using portals, and has access to the entire campus as well. When they return home to Alskyr they will likely have their own finely-crafted locations at the Alabaster Weyrhold's quarry |

Dragon |
Name: Zellulelth (ZEL loo lelth) "Lulu"
Gender: Female
Size/Shoulder/Length: Small, 8' s / 33' l / 55' ws
Colors: White Marked Gold Green, highly reminiscent of a certain tiny dragon impressed to a certain healer, with mostly pale gold body and wings, with a shiny coating of nearly-neon pale green on head and neck, shoulders, back to mid-tail, wing arms, thighs; wings have darker gold-orange on webbing; white markings on face, chest, neck, under tail, and on paws
Features: Nonstandard Pernese, no headknobs, ridges, or tail split, but otherwise standard for the breed in all ways, though smaller than normal
Powers: Winged Flight, Zellulelth is far sturdier than most dragons her size, though 'most her size' are small greens. She can lift unsteady or large weights and balances them carefully with her power. She's not remarkably fast, but she can turn and maneuver surprisingly well and will be quite challenging even for speedy small size males in flights
Teleportation, knows all the tricks to keep herself from being tagged in any game, flight, or event, and can teleport herself and whatever she's got with her regardless of its mass on every jaunt. Those can be quick and dirty 'back up into the skies' at under 100 meters, or directly up the coast 200 miles a burst, or to wherever she's been before and knows there's a clear landing or arrival space. And as good as she is locally she's even better between dimensions. Since her rider is technically speaking not even 'old world born', but comes from a variety of bloodlines, almost anywhere she can imagine, Lulu can go without breaking a sweat
Telepathic and Verbal Speech, Like some others in this smaller size range, she has the ability to speak both telepathically and verbally. With a lilting voice she can hum or sing or trill and bugle just as easily as connecting to other intelligent minds at up to 50 miles. When other telepaths attempt to think to her she 'reads' as basically 'human', she's quite smart and careful in her thoughts
Telekinesis,
though it's mostly very-close range, Lulu is able to balance and adjust items, keep people from falling off her back, and, as she's also able to keep herself aloft somehow, she can 'hover' without even moving her wings! Instead, moving the air under them
Carries Firebreath, she cannot flame, and her offspring will inherit either assisted or unassisted fire breathing based on their breed and genetics only
Parentage: Greeny Gold twotone Dulath and Silvered White Flurry Tehndarinth with added Kastanja-Kupari (colors)
Mate/Offspring: None, she'll likely become a proper breeding queen if the need arises and will want smart, small mates
Origin: An unknown Pern dimension gathered by random luck
Art By: Adopted from and designed by 8Siren with BronzeHalo lines on deviantart
Other Info: Make no mistake: this is not a green dragon, she's a queen from nose to tail and will not hesitate to tell you all about it.
