When she was young, she got into an accident that put her in life support for many weeks. She was horribly scarred in an attack by wild animals, and it has left its mark on her mind as well as her body. She does not like to take chances, prefers routine, and doesn't even really enjoy socializing with people all that much. She has friends after a lifetime in her settlement, but she never married nor does she have any interest in taking a partner for life.

...That is, until some of her friends began to really talk about bonding dragons. She is not a particularly maternal figure, but Sivuquq is aware of the rut she's lived most of her life in. And dragons, fierce beasts with command over the seas, seem like a way forward from her fear over sharp teeth and wilderness.

Otherwise, Vokhukath has a tougher time than many in understanding how the humans his bond is so tied up with live in their day-to-day. He has a hard time holding still, and sees the slow, controlled forms of most water bending to be irritatingly boring. He would rather seek out thrills to battle, visible dangers to triumph over. As he grows older he'll learn that this isn't how life works, and that constant practice is important when facing those crisis points. He is and will forever ben pretty darned bored with the secondary industry of the village, which revolves around clay works of all kinds. He isn't creatively talented (in as far as he knows) and doesn't really understand the meaning of art.
