BIO
• over ninety years ago a small child was happened upon by the caravan of an ylissean merchant and his wife, traversing the perilous deserts of pelegia and on their way home to ylisse. barely a year old, the couple took the baby, who they couldn't believe was still alive after being abandoned among an outcrop of rocks in the middle of the wilderness and left to whatever creature found her first. the blue-haired babe quickly calmed in their presence and it was then they decided to take her in and care for her. as a child they never could have due to his wife's inability to do so.
• the two had absolutely no clue about their new-found daughters origins, and it wasn't until she began to take on certain draconic qualities that they began to realize what she was. of course,despite discovering she was a manakete they loved and cared for her no less than before. but the knowledge was disconcerting to say the least. they had little to no knowledge of the reclusive race; let alone enough to raise one correctly. so naturally they decided to wing it and raise her as they would a human child, as they had been doing up until that point. esmer didn't notice the difference and likely never would.
• esmer aged differently than the human children she grew up with, and it didn't go unnoticed by them; or her. it wasn't until she was fifteen that she questioned her parents about it. demanding to know why her friends were growing while she stood unchanged. after she'd been told of her origins and just what exactly she was it hit home hard that one day she would inevitable be left alone in the world. She didn't like that idea one bit. But there was nothing she could do about it, and it was that feeling of powerlessness that scared her just as much.
• the trips she took with her parents during their merchant trades quickly lessened as the pair aged. esmer took it upon herself to keep the family business going and continued to travel as much as she could along with caring for her elderly parents. it was odd for onlookers to see a girl who appeared barely eleven years old bartering and trading with a professionalism that took many years to perfect. her ventures lessened as the inevitable drew nearer and she decided to hold off on the merchant trade to care for her dying parents in their final hours.
• their passing affected her badly. after burying them nearby their home she began working through the stages of grief that felt like an eternity. it was a bad time in her life and not one she thinks on lightly. she never wants to repeat that same feeling of loss. it was three more years after their death that she resumed her father's merchant trade, sticking mostly within the borders of ylisse though it wasn't unusual for her to travel further; just uncommon. she made a habit of visiting the larger cities frequently and reveling in the hustle and bustle of the streets.
OTHER
if there's ever been a person so upset with being what she is esmer's your girl. she hasn't even surpassed the century mark of her life and she already detests the longevity her kind is blessed, or in her mind cursed - with after seeing the family who raised her age and die, while she remained more or less unchanged as the years went on. she doesn't feel like she can relate to those of her own species ideals or views and prefers being surrounded by others than resign herself to a life of solitude, as much as it hurts to see time pass by. having been raised as a human it's not that difficult to comprehend, though because of this she's frightened of becoming close to others but fears being alone more than anything.
esmer's dragon form is distinctly aquatic in both build and functionality. her scales are made up of numerous shades of blues and iridescent when hit with light. fins rest along the rim of her jawline above a set of gills, fanning out into a crest which she has some mobility over, the same applies to the fins on her flanks and forearms as well as the twined fin on her tail. the joints of her wings are muscular and the membrane weaving it's way through the absence of bone is lines with faint, small scales aligned tightly together to allow swift movement underwater and tighter protection of the soft skin beneath but at the risk of less aerial mobility. the blasts she breathes a reminiscent of torrents of water and ice.
