Pets: Iron flit, (M) Tricks
Appearance: Tiny, at only 4'9 and so skinny she verges on gaunt, but just has enough wiry feminine muscle to have tiny breasts and enough hips that you can tell she is female if she dresses in feminine clothing. But if she covers up well she can pass as a boy, and has done so, is still doing so.
She has scars on her wrists and forearms from a suicide attempt and self harm.
She has short messy black hair, with long bangs that hang over her forehead and hide her eyes, pale, pale green eyes that have a slightly mad glitter, pale skin that is pale by nature, but made even more so by rarely seeing light.
Small and skinny she isn't much to look at and her face doesn't get her many second glances from boys or girls either. She is strange looking hiding under her fringe you might get a quick glance of her mad glittering eyes, and the grimace or sneer that passes across her expression. Her lips are thin but swollen looking as she chews them relentless and bites her nails down to the quick, so they regularly bleed. Her chin is pointed, her jaw blunt and stubborn, there are always shadows under her eyes and her high delicate cheekbones give her a hint of fragility and hint at her androgynous quality - is she female or male?
Personality: Passionate, stubborn, resourceful, brave, a true friend if you actually got to know her and she let you in, deeply courageous. She adores and is deeply loyal and loving towards dragons, flitters and whers. Although this side of her is buried under her nasty side, which has been allowed to grow wild since loosing Rakorath...
So is also Jealous, distrusting, secretive, violent, caustic and very paranoid, she has fits of melancholy and depression, snaps into a cold anger at any slight or insult and has frequent nightmares - she is an eternal insomniac - she never sleeps or rests. She is eternally restless and haunted...
She is a dragonless girl...and not many would know it - as she hides mascaraing as a boy Candidate, keeping to back passages, avoiding people and spying, doing the bare minimum of Candidate job, often alone, as the Candidate master has learned about putting her with others.
The help of her flit companion, best friend and healer have helped her gain some semblance of sanity from what she once was.
Her love of dragons has turned into a little obsession, she badly wants another dragonn, but finds she winches and shys away from all smaller dragons, especially greens...
History: Born at Benden Weyr after a harrowing 3 day long labour that killed her Cook mother, during a dreadful ice storm, never knowing who sired her, she grew up as a Weyrbrat. Because of her strange pale eyes and the circumstances surrounding her birth: long, brutal labour, storm, death of the mother, she was avoided as bad luck. That she was a little bad tempered, could be rude and antisocial, well that was didn't help gain her any fans among the foster mother's and weyrbrats.
She did manage to find 1 or 2 friends, Kylle and Fierral, 2 fellow weyrbrat, who were equally alienated and angry about it, and the trio stuck together like musketeers. OVer time Kylle and Rah became a couple and the ringleaders in their little trio, with Fierral following faithfully everywhere they went.
All 3 dreamed as all weyrbrats did of Impressing dragons and came with time, all 3 Impressed, 1 after the other, first M'kael his Brown at 13, and F'rral his Dream at 14 and finally her at 14 2 months after F'rral to her beloved Green Rakorath.
However the dream of continuing as dragonrider musketers quickly turned to a long road of suffering, terror and tragedy. Her lover caught a mysterious fever that claimed his life after visiting the Southern continent (think malaria) and his dragon promptly went /between/ at the shock loss of his rider.
Still reeling from the death 2 months later when on a training session with firestone, one of their Citrine clutch mates had a flaming accident, and the young green coped a face full of it...dying in agony. Leaving her stricken Weyrling rider alone and abandoned...
She went literally mad, completely out of her mind - she still has no idea what happened in the 6 months after his death, she had to be tied to her bed and confined to her weyr, under the constant guard of her assigned Healer and remaining, ever faithful loyal still living best friend. The one time they turned their backs for 5 minutes she slashed her wrists and only instant action on their part kept her alive. Something she didn't thank them for and still doesn't appreciate.
In a last ditch attempt to save her and get her to come back to herself, her Healer and best friend pooled their marks and bought her a flit egg that hatched to a Iron flitter she called Tricks, for his habit of stealing "pretties", ladies jewellery and performing little tricks in innocent fun to try and cheer his girl up. Only the tiny flit and his "tricks" managed to get a small smile out of her and a glimmer of sanity in her glittery eyes, as she was prompted to care for him and soaked up the bond..
Following on the success of how far she's come with just a flit around, the pair has decided to disguise her as a boy, move her to a new Weyr where nobody knows her and her tragic background, Ice Stone Weyr seeming a good choice, as it is far away, thinking a new start and possibly a new dragon companion will help cure her of her melancholy and suicidal behaviour. She is going along with it as she doesn't want to be anywhere near the home that killed her dragon, she has come to hate Benden Weyr, thinking that they killed her dragon and it is their fault. She plans to get revenge or get even somehow..
