Name: Eitauv
Age: 430
Race: Dragon
Occupation: Rider
Allegiance: Laemiri
Physical Description: Big. Eitauv is MASSIVE. He has long spikes that go from the base of his skull, all the way down his spine to the end of his tail. His wings are large and leathery, like a bats. On the ends of each wing is a barbed spike, useful for climbing or knocking around a target. he has several spines that offshoot his head, making him look a bit maned. He's covered with many scales, rather like a snakes, rather than the overlapping scales of some of his brethren. His claws and teeth are long and sharp, like daggers. His belly is made of large, smooth, flat scales that deflect attacks like no tommorow. His color is a deep, deep purple, one that is a rich shade that makes some gems look dull. His eyes, though his body is a amethyst color, are a topaz color that gleams like a sunrise. On his nose is a small ridged spike, one that is rather blunt, rather than it being sharp.
Personality: Eitauv is a gentle old soul. He prefers to wait on something to die, rather than kill it and eat it. He was like that from a hatchling after he watched an older dragon slaughter a cow to eat. He won't hesitate to protect Laemiri, however, and if anyone thinks that his lack of aggression is weakness, they are sorely mistaken. He is indiscriminate, like Laemiri, when it comes to liking people. He doesn't care what your race or species is, so long as your polite to him. He has a liking for jokes and for poetry, and finds many of the arts amusing. He loves flight, and swimming, if he could stay in the air (or underwater for that matter) forever he would, but he also loves the ground as well. He is a bit conflicted, you could say. When he found out about Laemiri's sight issue, he took to being her eyes well. He was rarely ever from her side anyway and this just gave him an excuse to stay closer to her, a welcome excuse at that.
History: Eitauv hatched in Illeria to Laemiri when she was in her third or fourth decade of her hundredth year. He grew quickly as a hatchling, learning to fly a bit earlier that other hatchlings, as well as learning to breathe fire rather quickly as well. He knew Laemiri's sight was deteriorating for a long time, but never gave her trouble on it until one day she almost got herself killed. That's when he confronted her about it and they decided to stay closer together, seeing as when they were apart she got injured more often.
The two studied together in Illeria for a long, long time; their calm partenership allowing for more mental freedom than most. Their minds were melded for a long time, and they are better for it than most Rider pairs. With both having been of calm, collected mindsets before their partnership, they bonded rather easily. They've been patient mentors and good friends to many, these years, the two sharing a friendship that is rarely seen among any anymore. They act as though they are an old married couple at times, sharing jokes that nobody else seems to understand about life and such.
