| Precognition: Shepiyath is able to predict events within about 2 days of their actual occurrence. (3) | |
| Starwake: Shepiyath can produce a kind of visual 'wake' behind her as she moves, appearing as a trail of glittering stardust. This 'wake' lingers for about an hour before dissipating. (4) | |

| Tuckspace: Shepiyath can store very small items in a pocket dimension of her own creation. She isn't particularly good at this, and sometimes the stored items disappear entirely - don't ask her to hold your cash! (1) | |
| Personality | Shep and Prima Beatrix are two peas in a pod, deeply dedicated to their home and its protection. It was Shep who landed the pair on Saga in the first place, and who first fell in love with the planet's abundant oceans. Shep loves the stars and the sea, and she's happiest when she can see both at the same time. While her rider taught at the University in their early days at the Nidus, Shepiyath helped establish its observatory and magically-powered planetarium. (She ensured that they were built dragon-sized, so she could enjoy the facilities too!) Now that her rider leads the Nidus, Shep acts as the first point of contact for Nexus connections. Uniquely gifted with the ability to teleport to locations she hasn't physically visited before, Shepiyath helps Beatrix scout locations and train other dragons on their coordinates. She isn't overly social, but she's sure to be cordial when greeting new faces, and she's a better teacher than she'll ever admit. |
