Nidan Email: bloodredraptor@yahoo.com   |||   Other Aliases: Navsia; Lazerus SPECIES:   Utahraptor GENDER:   Female AGE:   2 SIZE:  6 feet tall, 15 feet long, 600 pounds. PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION:   Not yet fully grown, Nidan is small for a Utahraptor adult, standing only 6 feet tall at the shoulder. Nonetheless, her build is that of a full-grown Utahraptor, muscled well and framed solidly with her skeletal structure. Her tail is slightly flexible, far from bendable, like most Utahraptors. Her hips are well-shaped, complimenting the voluptuous shape of her thighs, lined with flesh, her calves bulging a bit under the backs of her knees, though her shins are bony and her feet look like the talons themselves on the ends, only thicker. Her arms are nearly as long as her legs, the claws on her fingers nearly touching the ground when she stands at-ease. The most muscle lies on her shoulders, pulling the rest of the arm into a whiplike slash, whenever she attacks. Her neck is in a tight, proud s-curve, holding her head high, rather than hanging in shame or laziness. Her eyes are firmset into their sockets, and her snout ends in a sharp, prominent curve. Her dominant color is a bright red, flamelike in appearance, with a yellow underbelly to offset it all. Her crest, a brilliant white, only contributes to the illusion, as do her golden-yellow eyes. In fact, the only thing that spoils the fiery illusion is her black, tiger-like marks that run in stripes down her neck and back, and in rings around her limbs and tail. CONNECTIONS:   Mate of Segnoclaw, mother of Shakah, Ruby, and Neko MENTALITY/HISTORY  She grew up in a militant family structure, knowing no pity or love even as a newborn chick. She fought for everything she ever needed, be it food, water, or even a place in the nest that would allow her to sleep well. Thankfully, she was vicious enough to make herself the dominant chick in her nest, overlording her sister and brother, and later on, become a high-ranking warrioress in her clan. Her mother and father were secretly proud of their daughter's accomplishments. They showed her so by nuzzling her once or twice a few days after an advancement in rank. She grew cocky, knowing that, at the age of one year, she had advanced swiftly, being with five-year-olds that had taken their whole lives to get where they were. One day, when Nidan was sleeping, she was ambushed, attacked by raptorian bandits aided by the five-year-old warriors she had been with, and made envious. Awakened by a swift, disabling slash to her left quad, and a vicious bite to her left shoulder, she was quickly hit over the head, knocked unconscious by the blow. When awakened, the Alpha of the pack and issued an order: Nidan was to be banished, for lack of ability to even defend herself in the face of an unexpected ambush. Nidan, hanging her head in shame, retreated without a word to her parents, siblings, or friends. She felt like a failure. She felt lightheaded from bloodloss. She was almost certainly doomed, limping as her blood continued to ooze out of her injuries, her shoulderblade jutting out of the chunk of skin taken away from her shoulder. This instance had made it so that she didn't know love, trust, or anything related. She walked until she fell, every day for the next four seasons, until she healed, her wounds scabbed and scarred over, and her mental scars now pushed to the back. She's met up with the Krul Raptor Clan, and is now consorted to Segnoclaw. She is learning how to love and trust, for the first time in her life.
