Background: Kentora was born at Sea Cove Weyr. Her first experience with the dragons of Pern was at birth, when she was born with the umbilical cord wrapped around her neck. Her mother's green, Tinalth, talked to her until she began to breathe. Being that her parents were both riders, they had her fostered with Danya. When she was 15, she was taken to the Hatching Grounds as a Queen Candidate, where she Impressed gold Arysath. At the next Turn's End her father, who had become a wing second, gave her a fire lizard egg. A bronze hatched that she named Stomp.
Personality: Known as "that crazy goldrider," Kentora isn't afraid of taking risks. In fact, she thrives on it. She doesn't scare easily. When it comes to people making her mad, her answer is simple: don't get mad, get revenge. She rarely gets into verbal disputes. Above all, she loves to laugh and have fun. She is fiercly devoted to her queen, and someone hurting Arysath is the only thing that can make her seriously mad.

Date of Impression: June 5- when Kentora was 15 (I don't know Pernese dates)

Size: 41 meters
Appearance: Arysath is a bright, vivid gold color; the closest shade to the actual metal. She is fairly well proportioned, with a longer-than-normal tail, and she is more muscular than most queens.
Personality: Arysath is a happy, but very dramatic dragon that takes everything seriously. She is very protectiveof her rider and is careful to watch over her. She scorns watchwhers and refuses to bespeak them.
Strengths and Weaknesses: She is an intelligent dragon and a fast flier for a queen and has dextrous hands. (Claws?) Unfortunately, her long tail tends to get hit by Thread and char. She also has a slightly quick temper (but NEVER with her rider).
