Sarah is Intelligent, caring, eager, energetic, persuasive, kind, brave, resourceful, vigilant and agressive when pissed off.

She is a good willed and enlightened girl with a big sense of curiosity about everything. Insecure and a bit fearful when young, she becomes more confident and brave as she grows up and the responsibility as Voice of Light weighs more and more on her shoulders. She doesn't like it, but gives her best to do what she is expected to do. Oftenly, she demonstrates her wish to have only a normal life like the other dragons and perhaps become an explorer. Just like her sister, Sarah oftenly demonstrates to have a strong motherly instinct over the others even if they are completely strangers for her. This makes her good at dealing with children, to interact with teenagers and blend in with them. But there are also times when she acts as the adult of the situation to try solve conflicts only with words.

It is not rare when Sarah joins a conversation and speaks too much, often about the dragons, science or any matter she knows at least a good portion about what the matter is. If not, she may ask a lot of questions due to her curious way of be. Because of this and the will to know the truth only, she is a terribly bad liar, being easy to tell when she is not saying the truth or hiding something. When the matter is about the dragons, she says she does not speak in name of them, but is easy to know that she will defend in an argument if necessary after some minutes in a conversation with her. Other than that, she has plenty advices to give as a counselor. She also doesn't have the greatness syndrome and hates when someone assumes that from her only because of her origin or her responsibility as Voice of Light.

Although Sarah prefers solve conflicts with her words alone, the time will come when she needs to defend herself or the others. For this matter, Sarah possess the mental and physical strength to overcome hostility, but not emotionally. Sarah believes that the evil is not worthy of mercy and she is capable, even of killing, to ensure "the end of evil". But it is hard for her, as it is for any other normal person.

As consequence of her origin being related to the Ancient Dragons of the Before Time, Sarah have a strong chinese-like behavior. She almost never touches someone, not even for a handshake. She's polite, and know very well how to behave in front of authority, royality, or any other sort of important or famous people.

After some time living on Earth with her friends, Sarah learned to behave more like them and started to not think that much about touching. In a few years, she learned how to live like the humans as if she were one. This does not affect the way she behaved before, however, being only something she got used after some time.

Sarah has a good ear for music, aspiring to be a great musician someday. She likes many musical styles and to play many instruments. Sarah got this taste for music after listening to several songs on Earth. Her favorite genre is Jazz, but enjoys to play a bit of everything. She plays a custom made Ibanez SRAS7 bass with some fretless solos in the middle of the song sometimes. She also plays a regular acoustic guitar for songs that she cannot play with the bass and she can also play drums. Sarah also knows the basics of piano but cannot play any classical songs or anything too hard.

She also likes to write her thoughts, what she learns and her logic involved in a paper notebook along with some drawings of objects, people and places. She has many of those notebooks, one for each adventure or matter of study. She says it is easy for her to learn and/or remember things when she writes or draw it by observation.

Special Skills

Self Defense Combat Skills

Sarah knows just enough to defend herself and overcome hostility.

High Degree of Intelligence

Sarah likes logic games and conundrums are her favorite. She also knows a little about everything and is a quick learner

Highly Perceptive

Sarah often makes notations of what she learns, being very detailed about her subject. Because of this attentive look about the world and her surroundings, Sarah has a trained sight and attention about everything, even if her memory might fail sometimes.

Prodigy Linguist

Sarah's native language is not the English, but one which is the root for many languages and dialects on Earth and outside it. She can decipher and speak almost any dialect by simply referring to her native language. It is not perfect, and she may fail sometimes. Because of this, she has a bit different accent for English. The same is not applied to writtings, becoming way slower to learn if those languages use another form of writing other than the regular alphabet and the symbols of her native language.

Special Abilities

Superhuman Speed, Dexterity and Endurance

It is not as high as many would think, considering how she did not develop her physical abilities beyond common levels. Good luck to catch her running, though.

Perfect Pitch

Sarah can identify or re-create a given musical note without the benefit of a reference tone. This helps her mainly while playing a musical instrument or singing.

Empath/Partially Telepath (Mind-meld)

Just like betazoids, she can sense people and their emotions more intensely than by simple observation. She cannot read people's thoughts without a technique similar to the Vulcan's mind-meld.

Water Affinity

As a Water Dragon, Sarah can breathe underwater and is relatively fast swimming. She possess attributes that makes a quick stay underwater easy, having some difficulty for longer stays. She is not an amphibian. She is also slightly more vulnerable to fire and another heat based attacks. Extreme environments will also affect her health more, because of her higher necessity of hydration.

Detection

The sensing people and emotions is a passive sense, like a sixth sense. If a person is emotionless, she can still sense their thought patterns, making impossible for someone to try hide from her. If she's close, she will know you are there with relative accuracy in 35 meters radius. Beyond this range, she can still sense people but with reduced accuracy if she is required to locate them. To dampen her detection sense is like close her eyes or cover the ears. She can do it but it doesn't work perfectly.

Background (Abridged)

Born during the Eclipse of the Ancient Dragons, Sarah is the adopted daughter of the Matriarch of Dragon of the Seas. She attended to Venthur School until the teenage and then have classes at home on her own pace (which was faster than the other teenagers) and finish the equivalent of high school earlier than everyone. With this extra time, she oftenly visits Earth and another places throughout the galaxy, using her ship, Kali.
