APPEARANCE: Nimocith is smaller for a blue and will reach only 47 feet at full growth. He is long and lean, with short legs and wings, the combination serving to make him look smaller than he really is. His hide is a pleasant shade of medium blue, broken up by cloudy patches of pale, icy blue markings down both of his sides to half way down his tail, on his lower jaw, over his left eye, and on his right hind paw.
PERSONALITY: Intelligent, Empathetic, Cautious, Kind
Nimocith is a less than outgoing blue, finding comfort in the familiar and ever hesitant to step out of his very narrow comfort zone. He would much rather curl up with his rider for a quiet night in and enjoy a good book together than anything else. This isn’t to say he’s not interested in new things, for he very much is, but he would much rather sit back and observe others trying something new, ensure himself that whatever the activity is, it is a safe one, and then, maybe, he will be willing to give it a go himself. His motto could be ‘Look before you leap’. Cautious and thoughtful, he has a tendency to overthink and often ends up working himself up over nothing. A creature of habit and routine, he becomes anxious when plans are changed last minute and is easily flustered when things do not work out as he thinks they should.
He displays a higher degree of intelligence that seems to be common in Danovelith's children. A quick study, he learns quite fast and soaks up new information eagerly. However he lacks confidence and when asked to put his knowledge to practical use, he hesitates, and in his hesitation just may end up sabotaging himself even though he understands a concept perfectly well and should have no issue performing any number of tasks. And when he fails, he withdraws, completely embarrassed at making a complete and utter fool of himself, especially if anyone was around to witness it. He will require plenty of comfort and reassurance from his rider to get back on the proverbial runnerbeast and try again in such situations, but a single success will have his confidence soaring and he will be far more eager to try again, or even try something else while he's realized that despite his doubts, he IS capable.
Empathetic and kind, he relates easily to others and is always willing to offer a sympathetic ear and a snuggle to anyone who might need it, even if he doesn't end up talking back to them, in the case of humans. His intelligence lends itself well to coming up with decent advice for those that come to him with problems, but his lack of confidence may have him withholding that advice unless specifically asked. Still, nothing draws him out of his shell like someone upset, and he will be there in a heartbeat to offer what comfort he can, no matter what the problem or who is having it. And he tends to find reserves of confidence much easier in one on one situations where the other person requires his support.
A highly introverted dragon, it is perhaps unfortunate that he will come to display the sensitivity of a Searcher. He is ever hesitant about touching the minds of humans who are not his rider and easily becomes overwhelmed in a crowd. It might be best to stick to Searching out of the way places where there are fewer people, or the two of you may find you don't have much luck due to Nimocith's discomfort and uncertainty around too many people at once. Obviously, he is not a dragon that will ever talk with another human besides his rider unless circumstances are dire and he cannot speak to another dragon to help instead. He is also not likely to chase often, though the right green might be able to tempt him into the sky. If any of the other males chasing get aggressive, however, he will quickly drop out.
