Name: Nitath

Color: Brown (9a6a25)

Species: Dragon

Age: Newborn (age at midwinter)

Physical Description: Although gawky and awkward at birth, Nitath will grow into a large, long-limbed brown with big, wide, stamina-saving wings. His hide is the color of klah suffused with a lot of milk and sweetening: a sort of light, creamy brown which darkens to an almost chocolate color when it get wet. Nitath is an even, smooth color all over his body, broken only by slightly darker patches on the insides of his joints. With respect to his outgoing, flirtatious nature, Nitath can typically be found grooming and preening himself, and seems to have some kind of instinct that allows him to always position himself to his greatest advantage, using the angle and light at which others are viewing him to make himself look as fabulous as possible, though his sensible nature keeps him from fixating on how he looks too much.

Personality: Flirtatious, Extroverted, Level-headed

Nitath is, to put things simply, a people-person. It's not necessarily that he likes everyone. He just likes being around everyone. Dragons, firelizards, whers, people--all of these are free game for the brown, and he has a tendency to latch onto others quickly and easily, forming friendships seemingly without any effort on his part. He is forever endeavoring to break his rider out of the man's self-imposed loner nature and does everything he can to ease E'lan's paranoia when it comes to other people. A lesser person or dragon might end up feeling worn down by this seemingly hopeless task, but Nitath is endlessly patient with his rider and seems to possess far more good sense than any one person should be allowed to have. However, Nitath does have one weakness: he adores green dragons. Whenever there's one around, he just can't help but go up and introduce himself. He enjoys their company and believes them to be far more lovely than any other dragons on Pern. Still, though Nitath is an incorrigible flirt, he is a gentleman. His flirting is the light, playful kind, never too serious and never more than good fun. He enjoys complimenting others more than receiving compliments, but is hardly adverse to the subjects of his attention showing interest in return.

Rider/Handler: E'lan
