Bianca is the daughter of Lord Louis Philippe Naveau of the city Elgard and his beautiful wife Lady Larissa Regina Constantine Naveau, their third child and only daughter. When Bianca was barely one year old the Emissary of Tosarik, Eviron Ath'Legandril, came to Elgard for trade and peace negotiations, and sighted the spark that resided within the infant right away. Her family was torn with the idea, knowing that it would be a great blessing if a dragon god chose their child, but hated the idea of her leaving their home. After a long conversation an agreement was made, and Bianca was taken to Tosarik. Lain before the dragon god statues Bianca was chosen by the great Silver Dragon God, Serifa.
Bianca visited her family once a year, but she grew up in the city of Tosarik, in the care of the Dragoon Academy. She spent most of her time alone there or in difficult body breaking training. Her love of dragons grew tremendously when she met Balkor, an old silver dragon who had lost his flight many years ago. He was very wise and knowledgeable, and she enjoyed visiting him a great deal, finding she found companionship with him and his ways of thinking more often than she did her fellow dragoon novices.
Later that year Bianca made a new companion, and that was a fiery young woman named Varna Ashura. Being that Bianca was not very close to the other Dragoon trainees and she hated seeing Varna picked on as she was, she stood up for her when she found her in trouble, and they've been friends ever since. Although complete opposites they were inseparable in their training days, and said to be each others balance, with Varna's fire and strength came Bianca's serenity and wisdom. Varna's blood-line never bothered Bianca, for Bianca didn't view herself as a noble woman anyway, and blood didn't make you any better than than someone else.
During a training exercise with Varna she was severely injured, a severe cut to the left side of her neck, and was thought to die, but she was saved by Evirion, the healer of Tosarik, and since has been the only elf she has held highly in her regard. Bianca doesn't blame Varna for what happened for it was an accident and a danger they have to face in training all the time, although Varna seems to hold a great deal of pain because of it.
After many years of difficult and painful training Bianca was granted permission by the dragoon council to take the Dragoon Trials test. She passed on her first attempt, surprising her teachers and many of the dragoons, especially the males, and more so her family... who she knew secretly hoped she would fail so she would return home and under their care once again. Bianca cared not what they thought, however, for she knew she had worked hard for it and to her that was all that mattered. She had spent two days recuperating from her trial. Now that she was a full Dragoon she thought she would be able to travel the world on assignments.
Yet Bianca was quickly assigned to guard duty within Tosarik, and was appointed to the young Dragon Seer after a short time, a very prominent and coveted position by many of the male dragoons. Bianca at first was just another of Undomiel's guards, but she grew to care for the poor girl, feeling that she was abused because of her talents, and treated more as an object than a person. It would terrify Bianca when Undomiel would have visions that would inflict damaging wounds upon her, and took the young girl's plight to heart. She became a confidante of Undomiel's, and thinks of her like a little sister, and has often taken care of the Dragon Seer when her visions caused her harm... and will deny people to see her when she is not in good health, even if it is the King himself. She can be over protective of her, and will often not let Undomiel out of her sight unless she demands it... and even then it is done reluctantly.
Bianca’s family persists that she return home more often now that her training is completed, but she refuses to leave the dragons, Varna or Undomiel for long periods of time. She feels unattached to the lifestyle that her family lives, the prestige and wealth that mean nothing to her, and often finds herself an oddity amongst them, especially her brothers, whom envy her title.
