Making a go for that "she-wher" head cook at RMW: 
Name: Idoranya Kousmakur
Pronunciation: Ih-door-en-ya Koos-mah-ker
Gender: Female
Age: 54
Turnday: 3022.10.16
Weyr/Location: RMW (generally found in the kitchens)
Rank: Head Cook
Family:
Daughters: Gomerya (29), Idomera (26), Meradora (17)
Son: Ranyaven (19)
Weyrmate/Spouse: Gomeraven Kousmakur (53) (WeyrSmith)
Friends:Lindalyn (deceased former headwoman)
Pets:
Appearance: Idoranya is an imposing figure of a woman. Standing somewhere in the vicinity of 5’9” and possessing stocky and thick musculature that a frontline fighter would be proud to call his own, she’s certainly never heard of (or has discounted the very idea) the concept of the soft and squishy cook. Generally though, the first thing that people notice about her is her deep blue eyes, which stand out like sapphires against her dark brown skin. She wears her hair in an afro of truly epic proportions, it being more than a foot in radius.
Personality: Idoranya has developed a reputation as being a “bad tempered cranky she-wher”. Mostly, though, this is because she has strong notions of how things should operate, and gets angry when something interferes with operations in her domain. Yes, the kitchen is indisputably hers, and woe betide the person who forgets it. She has been known chase even full-riders from her kitchen — broom to-hand and fell intent in her eyes — for the crime of sneaking past in an attempt at some trifling food item. On the other hand, if something isn’t offending her stern notions of right and wrong, she’s actually quite a nice person.
History: Idoranya was born to a lower caverns worker and some rider or other. She was never particularly curious about either parent as a child, but that wasn’t uncommon in the crèche. She, like every other Weyrbrat, stood on the Sands everytime there was a Hatching, but never did a dragon appear for her. This was a source of hurt to the younger Idoranya, but as she grew older, she found she didn’t mind as much. In fact, in her last few Turns as a Candidate, she spent most of her time being a defacto Assisstant Candidate Master, looming around and generally making sure that her fellows were well behaved. Her spare time was spent in the kitchen, learning all about the art of cooking. She met Gomeraven there, actually, while the young Smith — then just 18 and new Journeyman — was in the process of trying to snitch some rolls. She drove him out, only to find him back again the next day. This happened for a month straight, and everyone else in the kitchen thought the whole thing was absolutely hilarious. When Idoranya aged out of Candidacy, she accepted Gomeraven’s proposal on one condition: he was not to enter the kitchen. Over the Turns that followed, Idoranya rose to become the undisputed Head Cook, which brought her into closer contact again with her childhood friend Lindalyn. She also found time to give birth to four children, three girls and a boy.
