Brief:

Kayda is an adventurer/archeologist who makes a living raiding old temples and abandoned towns. She searches for trinkets and objects of interest that she can sell at her traveling tent, the Bizarre Bazaar. Her prices are high, but her wares are rare and (mostly) legit.

She cares deeply for her girlfriend Naomi, whom she is rarely seen without. Kayda would do anything to protect Naomi, which might be true considering Naomi's ex-husband has not been seen in quite some time ...

Narrative Role:

True Dragons used to be respected and revered in Pyris and Colere. Their fierce power and undying loyalty became their undoing when humans decided that sacrificing them to the gods yielded more blessings than the dragons could offer. Dragon hunts became popular centuries ago, and the population has diminished greatly since.

Kayda is forced to reconcile with a broken past as she fights between her pride as a True Dragon, and yet learning to trust others with that secret. She is naturally wary of humans and downright disgusted by the “other” dragons, who seemingly turned a blind eye to their shared history, and whom either went into hiding or have attempted to distance themselves from the draconic title.

Kayda must meet all types who, in her mind, have played some part in their lives to hurt her, and come to terms with the fact that people can and will change if you let them.

Her backstory and the dragons in general are heavily inspired by LGBTQ+ history. True Dragons represent those of the community who were involved in politics, working to make real change by exposing themselves to ridicule and violence. Long Dragons represent those in the community who do not involve themselves with the political side, preferring to distance themselves from “those” queers, while still reaping the benefits of their labor. Siren Dragons (or mermaids/merservants), representing those who now use the acronym “LGB” or who go by “terf” in a futile attempt to appear sanitary in a world where they would not have rights either if the government could comfortably get away with it.

Likes:

• True Dragons

• All types of history, but especially draconic history

• Starting fires

Dislikes:

• Cold climates

• The "other" dragons

• The Festival of Dragons.

Trivia:

• Kayda eats bugs and especially loves the hard crunch of a nice shiny beetle.

• She has exactly one plushie, a small purple dragon named “Baby.” Naomi won Baby for Kayda during the Festival of Dragons in Pyris.

• She wears a breastplate made up of her own shed scales. Because her scale pattern is considered common, it is believable that she would shell out a pretty penny for a practical, if cheaper, scale armor.

• She has one snaggle tooth that doesn’t quite fit in her mouth; otherwise, all her teeth are the same, spiky length.

• The metal clasps on her leathers she smelted herself to subtly resemble the True Dragon insignia.

• Her hair color is natural, but if anyone asks, it's dyed.
