There's Always A Nice Way Friendship Female, SparkleShine Speech: #7c00ff
With a base coat of orange, and pink zebra stripes, you can’t really miss this girl coming. Her tail is a bright golden yellow, and so are her feet. Her eyes are a cheery grapefruit pink to match her mane.
There are enough bullies and intimidators in the world, and not nearly enough people who start out trying to do things and get things the nice way. Whatever happened to manners and being polite and wishing people a good day before and after interactions? Well, SparkleShine’s bringing that back into fashion! Although like most all Equstor her mindvoice is LOUD, she starts everything with either, “Good day,” or, “How are you?” and ends everything with happy wishes. She’ll never forget to wish the cashier at the grocery store a good day, or the barista, or the old man who held the door for her, or… SparkleShine is determined to spread goodwill and cheer, if it’s the last thing she does.
Brown firelizards are known for being mellow, undramatic, and for balancing out the rougher edges of their fairs. This guy goes a step further than that. Oh, he’s aware he’s not a Bronze, of course, aware that other flits won’t abide by him on instinct, but something about him makes others listen and he seems to bring unification and harmony to firelizard fairs wherever he goes, no matter how pushy or tempestuous they were to begin with, no matter how fractious or splintered. Out of many, one, after all, and it is a glorious one that he creates when he’s given room and time to work. Even queens seem to take him under advisement, not that he trumps their authority, but what queen doesn’t need a good advisor here and there?
He’s a handsome fellow, pure Pernese brown through-and-through, highlights of cinnamon along his head knob and wing joints, mostly a good solid chocolate throughout his body. His body is strong and compact, nearly the size of a bronze of his species, but almost as elegantly proportioned as a blue, clearly having hatched with the advantages of all the firelizard species.
The original Pernese thought of Greens as flighty, stupid, and apart from companionship, fairly useless. There WAS a brief time in Pern’s history when they were respected as the ancestors and antecedents of the browns, bronzes, and golds, but that time got forgotten fairly quickly with every nest that got misplaced or washed away by the tides or eaten by tunnel snakes. And in this, this particular green is very much a Pernese green. She isn’t wise about where to put her nest when she mates. Active seashore? Next to predators? Where she’ll never find it again? Check, check, and double check. You can rest assured she’ll nest often and leave her eggs everywhere. And if the eggs survive, there will be young firelizards everywhere that owe their provenance to this Green…but good luck tracking them down. Out of one, many, after all.
She may not be wise, but she’s pretty. Dainty and elegantly proportioned, she’s also a lovely forest green all over that darkens sharply along her spine and head and neck knobs and ridges, but also lightens out to a paler aventurine color along the leading edges of her wingsails. And she always seems to fly such that she shows her colors off to their best advantage, though she can’t possibly know how – she’s just lucky that way.
Starlight, Starbright Equine Hybrid Male Starmane+Pegasus Speech:Italic#386fd9
Occasionally a Gale Pegasus will accept a non-Pegasus as a mate, even a ground-bound Starmane – who have their charms, despite the fact that their ghostly wings allow them no flight. The result of such a pairing is an elegant equine, soft-stepping diamond hooves and twilight lavender star-strands for a mane and tail, inheriting a Celestial-equivalent rank from his Starmane father’s line, and a pale cross-like marking along his spine and shoulders to mark him as a Wind-equivalent from his mother’s Pegasus line. Somehow he tries to be a palomino, except he’s more of a shining dusky purple than he is golden brown. Like a Starmane, he can summon and dismiss his ghostly wings at will. Unlike a Starmane, more like a Pegasus, his wings actually allow him to fly, and he can dance on clouds just like his mother.
He’s quiet, but he’s affectionate, and like his inherited Celestial rank, he’s a damned hard worker. If there’s a task to be done, he’ll find it, and he’ll do it, and if it makes the life of his bonded easier, all the better. If it makes life easier for everybody, all the better, come to think. He’s a generous soul, all told, and a good listener. If you have problems, he’s got good advice. Oh, he knows his father’s language of musical emotional scale, but unlike his father, he actually speaks in words, something learned from his mother.
Some of Teragaia’s wild, bondable creatures are subtle, some are loud, some are polite, some are demanding, and then there’s this little Birbozard Parrotlet fella who is absolutely the loudest, most obnoxious pest one can imagine. If he isn’t the center of attention yet, he will be soon, he’ll make sure of that. Whether it’s by screaming, chewing on your favorite drapes, pooping on the table in front of your guests, or flapping around your head and ranting whatever words he’s heard you speak lately (whether they make sense in context or not), you can be sure he’s going to get your attention right quick whether you like it or not. Probably not. It’s not that he’s malicious, far from it, he’s just vain and needy and he feeds on attention like a fish needs water to breathe. And he’s bright, for a bird, but he’s a bird…and a lizard, not one of the more complex thinkers that Teragaia offers.
At least he’s not hard to find. Unless you’re colorblind, maybe, but if you’re not he’s BRIGHT GREEN. Loudly green. The kind of green that can only exist in nature on the features of a male bird, flashy and bright and optimal to catch a female’s attention. The lizard parts are a duller green, less eye-searing to look at, and patterned with brown circles on his back like maybe a tegu or a garden lizard might have.
