WEAKNESSES:
- Her stamina; though she is fit, she seems most active and deadly in short, sharp bursts and therefor must rest in-between.

+ Truly loves her dragon more than anyone in her family and would be lost without him.
OVERALL PERSONALITY: Raquel has always been a quiet person in general, often keeping to herself in a simple and polite manner. She is quite a mysterious character as a result of this, and subsequently doesn't make friends easily, which is why she cherishes the bond she holds with Deadshot more than anything else in the world. Though some have made fun of her in the past and even spread rumors about her inside Berk's teenaged world, she is truly very kind, forgiving and is soft at heart. When it comes to protecting Berk, her dragon or simply battling at all, her inner Viking shines through and shows that even though she is a rather socially timid person she is a true warrior and will put her life on the line for her family, her dragon and her home island.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Raquel's hair is a very light blonde, almost white, a physical trait inherited from her mother. She also has her mother's pale blue eyes and the classic Scandinavian high cheekbones. She sports a thin build, though she is quite muscular from general extensive, consistent training and her thighs and upper legs are very toned as a result of dragon riding. She always wears her hair in a long braid with individual bangs on either side of her hairline swept down neatly to cover her sharp jawline, and often wears her chainmail tank top, sturdy steel shoulder pads, thick leather skirt and yak skin boots. In battle and more dangerous situations she has been seen wearing a simple breastplate for added protection, also. Kelly stands 5'2 (roughly 153cm) in height and weighs about 42kg.
PLAYBY: N/A.
HISTORY: Fifteen years ago on the day of May 31st, Raquel was born the only child of her mother Sigrid and father Bjarne on the island of Berk. Her family were neither a poor nor a rich family, and found that their lifestyle's level of comfort fluctuated greatly depending on how well crops were growing and the weather in general. Her family always farmed their own food to eat and sell and trade at the market, and still do today. Onion was always something that seemed to grow remarkably well regardless of the weather, and constant feeding of onion based meals to her eventually lead her to hate it. Pushing the plough around their land and digging away at potatoes for the first eight years of her life, she grew strong from farming in general.
When Kelly turned ten, her mother found that they could afford to employ a young man to work on the land at the cost of a bed to sleep in and decent, fresh meals at least twice daily. With her parents permission, she left to find a way to expand her horizon and chose the path of fitness and battle training. For a year she trained to become strong, flexible and skilled in combat before she was handed an axe at the age of twelve. She spent time working on her skills with this for four months before she was given the same deadly Labrys she has today.
At the age of thirteen and six months, Kelly was out in the woods doing what she did best: swinging her axe, running wild and climbing the tallest of trees. The sun had begun to set on this particular day when the sound of bloodcurdling, reptilian screams threatened to pierce her eardrums. Naturally, she ran toward the source of the sound to find two wild Deadly Nadders brutally attacking what looked like a badly injured Monstrous Nightmare. Immediately feeling her heart tear at the gaping wound down said Nightmare's left side, she concealed herself in the shadows until the Nadders found that their victim was wounded enough and left to mark their new territory. Raquel stayed with the dragon, feeding him and desperately trying to clot the bleeding of his wounds.
She returned to Berk, knowing that the basic dressings would keep him comfortable overnight. For a month she travelled back and forth between the clearing where she found the Nightmare and her village on Berk; healing, feeding and slowly but surely gaining this dragon's trust.
The day before she turned fourteen Kelly lead the dragon, of which she had by then named Deadshot, into Berk where she begged the Leathersmith to craft her a functioning saddle and riding system.
Now a little older than fifteen, she is happily riding her friend whom is thankful to her for saving his life and loves her like no other. They have a long way to go, but her prospective goal of becoming a well-known dragon rider will always be there for her to reach and grasp.
FAMILY: Sigrid Svanhild - mother. [NPC]
Bjarne Svanhild - father. [NPC]
WEAPON OF CHOICE: Labrys.
FIGHTING STYLE: Dodge and dive to wear out the attacker and then attack brutally.
DRAGON:
NAME: Deadshot.
GENDER: Male.
TYPE: Monstrous Nightmare.
APPEARANCE: Main body colour is a deep violet hue and his underbelly, edges of his wings, tip of his nose and tip of his tail are a bright shade of yellow. He has a large scar running down his left flank due to a serious territorial quarrel with two other dragons during his time in the wild that left him wounded.
PERSONALITY: Fiery, cantankerous and often quite rebellious, Deadshot is certainly a dragon that is full of flame (No kidding!). Being the Monstrous Nightmare that he is, he is an aggressive, headstrong character yet he is extremely protective of his rider. He has a mediocre case of ADD (or, if you like, Attention Deficient Disorder), and is subsequently easily distracted and likes to do his own thing. He tends to be rather horrible to people other than Raquel, and doesn't like strangers at all. Though, mentally, he's not the sharpest axe in the armory and can be sour, Deadshot is extremely affectionate towards his beloved rider and would put his life on the line for her as he has done before.
STRENGTHS:
+ His firepower.
+ His size.
+ His offensive melee skills.
+ His strong jaw and deadly dental arsenal.
WEAKNESSES:
- His case of ADD.
- His speed.
- His exposure to other violent dragons throughout his past life in the wild.
- The fact that his general fighting style is more offensive than it is defensive.
