Description
Tall, strong-jawed, and brown-eyed, this girl - no woman - is hardly a regular beauty. True, she does have the necessary curves, if a bit flatter than most, and her dark skin is near-flawless. No blemishes mar long arms and legs, muscles evidence of a life lived in toil. Though roughened hands have long fingers, slender enough to have been, had she ever gotten the chance, artist's hands. Though no delicate thing is she, features too sharp and severe to, with only the merest hint of femininity in ample lips and long lashes. Hair is kept long, braided black which coils often around her head or is left to fall just past mid-back. There's a sturdiness to her, a toughened exterior shielding whatever may lie within, few lines to mark her face and little of softness at all.
History
Born in a small cothold near Ista, Taltosa was set to work from an early age. Untalkative about what exactly she'd been doing before a passing bluerider searched her, most of her fellow candidates gathered it was rough, outdoor work involving large tools and a lot of strength. Good thing the girl was strong, both physically and then some, because the thing she walked off the hatching sands with turned out, when all was said and done, to be a gold.
Unfortunately, disaster would strike the weyrling pair long before they'd been given a chance to prove themselves. Their first betweening lesson ended in tragedy, when Nictukuth, too impatient or too eager, slipped between and never returned.

Dragon
Dire Monstrosity Gold Nictukuth
If her dam were easily mistaken for a bronze, by build alone, this dragon is nearly the opposite, like a great wraith risen up out of the night, as ethereal as she is large, despite the flaming touches of light upon her hide. There is a darkness which echoes in the creases beneath powerful jaws and across broad wings, a gold so dim it's almost tarnished - but not quite. Midnight talons are wickedly curved, as are the rows of sharp and pointed teeth. There is no streamlined build for this dragon, however, instead born with a frame more bulky than sleek, and yet.. there is such grace to careful movements, much more than might usually be seen in one of her color. Tight muscles ripple along powerful limbs, the neck and tail strong and sturdy. What elegance she might possess is easily overshadowed by her less savory qualities, every line of her form shaped as if carved from some sinister and ungentle mould.
