	''"That... was certainly an interesting jump. I was still 'doing time' on the pole when I entered my first competition. Battle-Mage fights were quite a hot sport at the time, and I got in when there were huge rewards and basically no rules. You weren't allowed to flat-out kill your opponent, but the weapons were real. Of course they had healers on hand that could stop any injury, but it was dangerous. I was in unparalled shape, was far more powerful as a mage than anyone knew, and had been taking martial combat classes for two years as a way to blow off steam. My first ~~bought~~ was a prize fight with a pretty nice purse, but I was really only put in the arena as a sort of comic-relief act. They pitted me against some rising star hoping for an at least entertaining fight, the stripper verses the war-wizard. I... may have handed his ass too him a little too aggressively."

	Sapphire was older than most trainees and still did extraordinarily well, completing the trials in five years and becoming a Slayer Dragon at the age of 30. As a public figure she made no effort to hide her past. While she never professed to look on her ~~form~~ activies with pride, the message she gave was to always work hard at whatever you're doing, since everything you do is a skill.

	Sapphire is among the few Slayer Dragons to have a personality cult spring up during her own lifetime. While her regalia and armor were always modest and functional, she was still seen as incredibly beautiful, and a great many photographs and videos of her were released and widely circulated. She had a very flirty and sensual personality.		Sapphire is among the few Slayer Dragons to have a personality cult spring up during her own lifetime.
