She enjoys poking at things to see what makes them tick, the more complex, the better as she is highly intelligent. She enjoys connecting with others, especially through touch, and could even be described as cute and sweet by some though others might consider her to be quite impish. Be warned though, she can be amazingly stubborn, sometimes competitive, and does have a bit of a temper that seems to be set off by the oddest things.<br/><br/><strong>Background:</strong>From the moment Ryia heard the first of her siblings break free of their shell she wanted to be out. The peace and warmth she had known shattered into a million pieces leaving her hungry to see and do and learn. Patience wasn't exactly something well understood by her so she spent a while trying to break free of the imprisonment of her shell, often growing tired and having to stop to rest before her relentless desire finally won out and she burst free. Right away it was a scramble to establish herself. She explored with few limits, showing caution only when challenged outright by those larger than her or when her natural instincts held her back, and poked her nose into everything possible. It was clear even in the beginning that she was not to be the largest of cobalt dragons but what she lacked in size she often made up for with ingenuity and speed and she did not hesitate to use these traits to her advantage.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, or fortunately depending upon your view, Ryia's curiosity was responsible for her somewhat early first attempt at flying. Sneaking about where she had no business and venturing to close to the open ledges that her parents had showed them (and warned them never to approach carelessly) she was knocked off the ledge by one of her siblings and sent tumbling into the open air with nothing to catch her. By fate's design, or sheer dumb luck, Ryia spread her wings not a moment too soon and found herself in flight. It was clumsy and awkward and she received her share of nicks and bruises that first time but she managed to return to the ledge drained and weakened but exhilarated all the same. After that there was simply no restraining her. Everyday she would launch herself from the ledge, and everyday she would grow stronger in her flight. Some hidden ounce of sense kept her from straying too far from the nest but she explored everything she could and began hunting for herself, fish and other water dwelling creatures being her favorite.<br/><br/>Ryia is now ready to leave the nest. The open skies and seas call to her louder and louder each day, and each day she flies farther and farther from home.<br/><br/><strong>OOC Ons and Offs:</strong>Ryia likes males and females equally. For the rest see player O/Os or just ask ^^<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Ryia's Relationships/Impressions</div><div class="spoiler_body"><strong>Ithilethiel</strong> - Ryia absolutely adores her older sister! The two are quite often spotted together exploring or causing mischief of some sort--or if one spots Ell usually Ryia is not too far away (most likely creeping up to pounce the older female). Of all her clutch-mates, Ryia trusts Ell the most and her older sibling's protective nature is a big part of why the cobalt has yet to shed her rather innocent demeanor.<br/><br/><strong>Aliksenarin</strong> - <br/></div></div>
