OVERALL PERSONALITY: Serafina is a strong, confident, independent, brave, intellectual and aggressive fighter. She does not stand back and she will not take no for an answer. She is incredibly stubborn and forceful and always believes herself to be right even when she is not. She is very vocal and will make it clear what she does and does not want. She is highly critical of others, but is also very outgoing, honest and loyal.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION:
Serafina is a strong, lean and muscular character. She has long following hair and distinctive brown eyes. She has arched eyebrows, curly matted hair and thin lips. She wears traditional clothing in Berk, though prior to this she could be seen in long Arabian fighting style long red robed clothing with a hooded head and golden rings around the folds. Now she wears what is typical of Vikings: a light green dress with a red cloth around her neck. She also has a birthmark in the shape of a star underneath her left eye.
PLAYBY: Naomi Harris
HISTORY:
Serafa was born in Arabia, specifically what is now Iran. She was born to two poor merchant parents who made a living selling handmade pottery on the streets. When she was very young, she was transported as labour to an island nearby Berk. The ship was harsh and the conditions were brutal and they involved being at sea for immense lengths of time, often with the captain throwing dead bodies into the water which resulted in her fear of the water. Her fear of darkness was developed during the time when she was confined to a small dark area of the boat without food or clothing for two weeks. After toiling with her parents for many years, they saved up enough money and paid for a boat ticket to Berk. Unfortunately, they were very poverty stricken and her parents were left behind. Not much is known about them presently.
When she landed on Berk she was roughly 12 years old. She was quickly known as a feisty, no-nonsense, strong and confident fighter. Very few people caused her any trouble and if they did they got a black eye in about five minutes. Serafa learned all of her fighting, hunting and training techniques on Berk and therefore learned the Viking way of fighting, and not the Arabian style of combat. She made a friend in a quiet, shy and troubled young girl named Aada. While the two did not have much in common, she did show Serafina something she had never seen before: real life tamed dragons.
After about two years, Serafina decided she wanted a dragon of her own. However, she did not want a Nadder or a Zippleback or a Gronckle due to the fact that she wanted to show others how she had overcome tribulations in her life and that her's was far from "average" (being from Arabia). She traveled for two days to a land that was rumoured to be inhabited by an aggressive and sarcastic Ambassador.
Then Serafa entered the cave. The dragon was immediately hostile and tried to scare her into submission by puffing up his scales. However, Serafina was full of fire and wit and would not give up. She brought in multiple different food and objects day after day in an attempt to win the dragon over. After a week or so of this same charade, Serafa managed to give the dragon a piece of smoked mackerel and he ate it from her hand as this was his most prized possession. This was to be the start of a great relationship - albeit a volatile one.
FAMILY:
Mother: Yakira Sidibe (Yakira Falke)
Father: Raquere Falke
WEAPON OF CHOICE: A thin and streamlined Islamic sosun sword which her father stole from someone while they were in a fight.
FIGHTING STYLE:
Attacks first, poor defense, agile and stealthy, hard to be continually followed with eyes, changes tactics frequently, can be defeated if her attack is diminished in some way
DRAGON:
NAME:
Bæringur
GENDER:
Male
TYPE: Ambassador
APPEARANCE: He is a large black Ambassador with speckled dark green markings and a scar below the right eye. His feathers are sometimes dark mottled colours in certain lighting settings. He has a large black tongue and an odd "feathery" tail (scales that resemble feathers).
PERSONALITY: Bæringur is much like Serafina in that he is aggressive. He is very cocky and thinks he is the best dragon in the entire world. He fawns over himself a lot and is extremely vain. He hates getting his "feathers" ruffled and even more so dirty. Baeringur is possessive of his rider, his possessions and food. He is however very laid back and calm when someone offers him his favourite food, which happens to be smoked mackerel.
STRENGTHS:
- His spines are extremely sharp
- He is an incredible flyer
- He does have a strong defense
WEAKNESSES:
- He is easily convinced with a snack or a treat
- Generally poor stamina
- Incredibly easy to agitate or anger
