Weyr: Isle Weyr of Earth
Appearance: Ashura has short black hair. Most of the time, he'll just run his fingers through them to put them in some sort of order. However, more often than not, his hair would seem messy. But no matter what, his hair will never get in the way of his eyes.
He has blue eyes so light that they may seem some other color depending on the color of his clothes, or the brightness of the light. His eyes are tear-shaped and are the windows to his soul.
Ashura stands at six feet and ten inches tall and weighs two hundred and twenty pounds. He has a trim and lithe body with wide broad shoulders and a small waist. His skin is fair and will not burn under the sun. Rather, his skin will become bronzed as he stays longer under the light of the sun.
He has straight white teeth, a straight nose, and rosy red lips with a lower pouty lip that's just begging to be kissed. He likes to dress casually with dark colors.

Personality: Ashura is a friendly fellow. He'll make the time of day for anyone that needs to talk to him. He also likes to make friends with those that he doesn't know of yet. He can be quite annoying, if one isn't in the habit of talking to just anybody.
He's a flirt when it comes to Greenriders. He can't help it, if he's testing waters to see if the rider would take to him or not. He likes to be prepared to potential bed partners come the time that the Greens rise for their mating flight. He's not one to be tied to a weyrmate but who knows what the future brings.
He is laid back and is not one to panic, needlessly. But don't be fooled, by his care-free attitude. Ashura gets the job done in a responsible manner, and within a reasonable amount of time.
History: Ashura was born between A'shen, a Bluerider, and Nura, a cook's assistant. Nura didn't really have time to care for a babe and so like most children in a weyr, Ashura was fostered with folks in the weyr that had time to care for him. His biological father and mother still spent time with him when duties permitted, but more often than not, he spent time away from them.
Like most Weyrbrats, Ashura dreams of becoming a dragonrider. But unlike the other Weyrbrats who dreamed of becoming the next Weyrleader, Ashura was content in becoming a Bluerider much like his father was. And when he was old enough, just turning into his twelfth Turn, he joined those hopeful Candidates and Stood at a Hatching. Unfortunately, he was among the few that got left Standing.
However, that that didn't discourage Ashura and still went about life being a Candidate, praying and hoping to Faranth that the next Hatching would prove that his dragon would Impress on him. Thus, his prayers were heard and he Impressed Blue Azreth on the next Hatching from Ramoth's clutch. Becoming a Weyrling, he learned what it meant to be Impressed to a dragon. The responsibility it entailed, and the duties it involved. Those lessons became ingrained in his brain as he and Azreth rose to the ranks of the Dragonriders of Benden Weyr.
Time passed and the pair proved their mettle as they battled Thread every Threadfall. They were rather acrobatic in the air, almost beating those Greens that were purported to be more agile and manoeverable than they were. Alas, fate caught up on their antics and there came a day that they were not so lucky. There was an accident, and despite Azreth going Between as quickly as As'ra had given the roder to do so, the result was damning nonetheless. Even if the pair were physically and adamant to join the Wing during Threadfall, Azreth's semi-blind right eye was a definite liability up in the air.
And so, the pair were packed off to Earth. At first, it was a destination worse that As'ra could think off. Being told that he and Azreth were no longer deemed as an appropriate dragonrider pair of Benden Weyr. However, what seemed like the worst of curses, turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Despite being sent to Earth, it turns out that there are so few capable dragonriders on Earth that when he got there, at Rocky Weyr, he was asked to transfer to Isle Weyr, a Weyr supposedly situated in another Country and become that Weyr's Weyrlingmaster.
Becoming the Weyrlingmaster was a dream hidden deep within his heart that Azreth didn't even guess at. However, he never thought that he'd ever become the Weyrlingmaster back in Benden Weyr. Now, here on Earth, he was offered to fulfill his dream at Isle Weyr.

Name: Azreth
Color: Blue
Color Code: #007FFF
Impressed on: 9th Pass - 9.3.19 (August 15, 2004)
Age: 8 Years Old
Size: 25 feet long
Physical Description: Azreth is a small blue dragon. But don't let his size fool you, he has the stamina to last a Threadfall if need be. And with his petite size, he is just as agile and manoeverable as a Green in the air. His color is a blue that's reminiscent of the clear blue sky. He doesn't have any scars or marks despite having fought thread. He has a length of 25 ft. with a wingspan of 41 ft. 6 in. In addition, his height, when taken at the shoulders is, 6 ft. 3 in.
Defect/Injury: Azreth's right eye is semi-blind from an accident during Threadfall. Whether or not it will heal, is all up to time.
Personality: Where As'ra is a flirt, Azreth is the direct opposite. He's a very prim and proper dragon. If a dragon could be likened to a wolf who takes a single mate for life, Azreth would be considered such a dragon. More, he's rather conscious of his injury and is not prone to antics that may cause disorder or any other chaos. He takes his duties seriously and often times is the voice that goads As'ra into behaving better and getting the job done in a timely manner.
Status: Healthy
Hatching Scene:
The blue had finally finished cleaning himself and now surveyed the Candidates arrayed in front of him. He ignored the females and concentrated on the males. Twice his head swept through the male Candidates until finally, his head settled on one lad. With a dignified air, the blue approached Ashura.
Stopping in front of Ashura, the blue said, As'ra-Mine, your Azreth is famished. May we please go and get something to eat? as he looked up at As'ra with his rainbow-colored swirling eyes.
Dam & Sire: Gold Ramoth and Bronze Mnementh
