Arya
the Courageous When Helping Others Female Baby's Breath Hummgriff
Intelligent with a capitol "I" is the easiest way to describe this brainy little shiny. She's really very gentle and sweet but has a tendency towards sitting quietly and just ...learning. She is fascinated with both her bondmate and other shinies, people, nature. Why do things happen the way they do? What makes that clock up there work? What is love? Any great questions of the world fascinate her even if she can't preisely fathom them to the degree she really wants to. She will probably be the first of her friends to learn a few common words, and you would swear that she has to know what they mean because she never seems to use them incorrectly. She's one smart little cookie and wants only to learn more. This unfortunately means that sometimes affection comes second to seeing how something ticks and satisfying her curiosity, but never doubt her love or protectiveness. She's a fierce ally, and more than willing to throw herself at the face of danger to buy her friends a few precious seconds to get to safety. Her feelings are just well-tempered and often muted, but they do exist. Despite her somewhat reserved nature, she's a gentle, loving little hummgriff who only wants what is best for her bondmate. And to learn more about that thing over there.
Colorwise she is almost pure white, and on the small side for even a hummgriff. The white is evened out with graceful arcs of pale grey dappling over her back and sides in a wide brushstroke pattern. She's happiest when curled up on an open book infront of a window, sipping from an Elderflower. Granted, she can't actually read the book but she does enjoy looking at the pictures. Honestly, if you will tell her a story she'll be even more obliged to sit quietly and listen, enthralled with the words even if she doesn't fully understand them.
