Name: Essetai "Esse" (pronounced Es-eh-tie, nickname pronounces 'ess-eh')
Gender: Female
Race: Auroran
Home: Thunderblizzard Village, Hoku
Relatives: Her family in Thunderblizzard, though she believes all people there are her family. Her mother is named Karah and her father is named Dorian. She looks more like her father than her mother.
Appearance: Esse is a 14 year old Auroran who enjoys being different. Like most of her race she likes the colour blue, but she's spiced it up with some red and gold (which reflects her bright personality). Her ears are pointed and but stick out further than they should, being almost troll-like in a way. They are tipped in a bit of white feathery-fur. Her eyes, as any Auroran's do, change colour with her mood*. She has a dragon's tail and horns and her hair is bright red. However due to a genetic shift in her family (something she and Kento share though they are not related), she inherited the recessive Eastern Dragon bloodline rather than Western. This means that she has wings like any Auroran but they are too small to use for flight (smaller than even Kento's). They are the same red and gold as her tail (red on the outside with darker red inside, golden spines on the top-most joint).
Background: She was raised by her mother and father who care for the local polar bears. She inherited the same love for animals (she feels a strong connection with them). In Thunderblizzard she always was captivated by the swirling snow and would stare at it for hours whenever possible. She never really liked being very social anyway... it didn't suit her as much as one would think (with the exception of time spent with her two best friends).
Her parents (mother- Karah, father- Dorian) ran/still run a care-taking building for the village polar bears. Her friend Zandrai (a boy her age) and his father Rhein make/sharpen ice blades. However if people tease her about her close friendship with him, she blushes (almost?) as red as her hair. She also has another male friend named Kento, the very same boy who convinced her to slide down a snowy hill and the reason she ended up stuck in a snow bank once or twice. (Esse's been known to be clumsy at times. Kento makes up for it with his fun loving nature though since he often gets himself into sticky situations. The only one exempt is Zandrai since he is reserved and shy.)
Another thing she would always have a flair and love for would be story telling. She would listen to the Elders often for tales of the Hero of Hoku, Malon (renamed Alana) so often that she memorized them herself. She also had a love for images. Any kind of drawing, even if it were just an ice carving, would capture her attention and hold it for a long time. Because of the tales of Alana, she set out
Other: Against Amett
Partner: None specifically though she works with many polar bears due to her parents' job. She claims to have a bear of her own but really it is a polar bear cub her parents have kept over the years as sort of a family thing. She is most actively interacting with the bear and calls it her partner if asked, though.
Reason for Traveling to the Ruins of Time: A wish to follow in Alana's footsteps
