Your name: Jovia
Character Number: 1
Character Name: Linda Mayno
Age: 18
Birth Season: Beginning of Fall Turn 2563
Gender: Female
Rank: White Weyrling, Journeywoman Healer
Sexuality: Asexual, no really she doesn't know but mainly Heterosexual if she shows any interest in others like that
Appearance: Linda's hair is of a brown color, well a chocolate brown pretty much with tints of other colors within its depths here and there. That unless one looks at one strand of hair wouldn't notice the random black hair here and there. The layer underneath is darker though while the layer on top of the thick hair was bleached a lighter shade by the sun. Some strands even bleached to a blonde almost in color well a dark dirty blonde. Very thick though, and slightly wavy though because of the weight of it the waves only show up pretty much near the bottom. No hair style is apparent though there is no bangs, just hair that went down to knees basically.
Her face in front of the hair though is slightly heart shaped, but mostly just oval in some ways in the middle. A soft widows peak tops a gentle sloping forehead that is framed by average looking brown eyebrows. While below the eyebrows are a dark forest green eyes that have flecks of brown amongst them, especially brown is the ring located around the pupil. Slightly almond in shape and still they retain a slight youthful largeness to them. Soft blackish brown lashes curve away from her eyes, not the most feminine of people but still there was lashes there to denote she is female. Between her eyes though is a prominent normal average nose, stubbornly set with a little upturn on the tip of it. While full dusty rose colored lips finish her face below her nose, though that is not all on her face. She has one scar that starts just below the middle of her right eye and slopes gently and shallowly towards her chin.
Linda does however stand at around five feet and four inches in height, so she isn't the shortest or the tallest pretty much but rather average as well. Her whole body is covered in a tan, not that light nor is she too dark just a tan from being out and about in the sun. Her body isn't the skinniest or leanest of the bunch either but rather very well toned to deal with work or lifting things. She definitely isn't one of those fragile gals, though she does have a rather hourglass shape of medium curves on her body. Not too large and not too small, so she can still be flexible and not too stand out in the crowds. To compliment the scar on her face though she has one she usually has hidden mostly, it starts at the top of her left shoulder and slowly moves towards the inside of her arm ending halfway to her elbow.
She never cares about dresses or skirts, in fact she hates them most of the time for they just get in the way. She also hates bold and bright colors because they make her stand out and she doesn't like her looks to be too flamboyant. She prefers natural tones, like greens and blues that aren't too bright though has been known to like purple and some silver actually. Other then that she doesn't really care, usually wearing tunics, vests, pants, anything comfortable, not too baggy or too tight, and that doesn't wear and tear easily. She also tends to wear a brown belt with pouches and a long knife attached to her waist carrying some basic survival supplies and healing supplies that she might need. She might though wear a dress or better quality tunic and pants for special occasions, or if she has to she will wear a dress.
Here is a picture I drew of her.
Personality: Linda sadly isn't the most bubbly friendly sort of girl towards regular humans. She is rather in fact downright cold and rather uncaring most of the time to others. She hates humans mostly with a passion, though of course there is always an exception and she has liked some in the past but she is more on guard with people then normal. If they have a dragon or some sort of pet or Fire Lizard though, she is actually rather nice and not as guarded because she prefers non human company which relaxes her. She has been known to almost ignore a person but as soon as their Fire lizard or Dragon or something came into the picture she starts paying attention to what they are saying.
Because of her quirks of dealing with people she doesn't have many friends, and even less in the way of social graces or training. She is rather blunt and open and honest about her mind and opinions and won't hold back just because it might hurt someones feelings. She also doesn't know subtle hints most of the time as well, she has never flirted and doesn't really have interest in relationships because of this at this time. Her greatest pet peeve is anger, harmful intentions, or anything of the sort to non humans, especially if its a Fire Lizard or Dragon that is the victim. Quick to anger and even quicker for her to try to defend those she deems worthy, she really isn't someone that could really handle politics especially of the holds.
Sadly because of her lonely existence she has even greater fear of being truly alone. Ever since Cad came into her life she would know she couldn't survive without him, or others there in her life. She also secretly fears rejection from others, reason why she chases them away so easily and readily away from her though tries so hard to be a healer in hopes of being accepted. She also though doesn't really handle stress all that well, usually seen sparing and working on her ways of being able to defend herself especially early in the morning before she steps up for the day.
History: Linda showing up in the family was never a planned thing, in fact Her mother was warned she had a great risk of dying if she got pregnant again so even before she was conceived she was trying to be gotten rid of. But her Mother, once pregnant, couldn't get rid of her child try as she might. So in the early Fall of Turn 2563 she was born, perfectly healthy and everything normal... But her mother wasn't so lucky, despite what the healer could do she died within a few days after the birth on their little Herd beast ranch. This caused her Father though build an intense hatred for his young daughter from the loss of his wife and treated her worse then even servants in a hold. He never touched her and in fact gave her to her brother to raise her or dump her somewhere to die if he wanted to be free of the burden. Baengiman however never thought of his sister as a burden, and actually grew to love his sister much like a father as well.
But because he grew to know the joy of raising his sister that was only six turns younger then him, his father didn't really care much for him either slowly hating him for wanting both wife and mother to want to die. Slowly the quality of food, clothes, basic essentials for the two siblings got worse and worse before long that when Linda was six years old all the hatred and anguish grew to the boiling point. She didn't think anything of the bad, she thought this was normal and that father was just to busy to give her any love so she tried her hardest to keep out of his way... Though one night in a drunken rage Her father took a knife and went after her, causing her wounds on her cheek and shoulder that never truly healed like the rest. Fortunately her Brother was able to grab her and run away from home with her and a few essentials, but from that Trauma and what would happen next she never really trusted another human again.
It was a struggle for them, they were able to get a ride upon a dragon to Fort Hold, where they were taken in and fostered. But of course the woman in charge of them didn't really care and quickly sent them from family to family, who didn't want such a deformed young female but wanted her older brother who wouldn't leave her behind. So over and over after thirteen different families the woman finally gave up on finding them a home. Linda was sent to the Crafthall, learning the ways of a healer while her brother was actually searched to become a Dragonrider. He promised he would come back for her but had her promise to do her best. She was now at Twelve turns at this point and worked as hard as she could, without even really making more then two friends because of her distrust in humans.
Shortly after turning eighteen turns though she was raised up into being a Journeywoman Healer, and given herself a small Fire lizard egg which hatched wonderfully enough into her brown she named Cad. From then on she was inseparable with him always at her side. Before she was sent off on her first assignment to journey to another place however, the search dragon for Fort Weyr picked her up even though they did not have a clutch on the sands. By this time she had met her brother a few times, now that he was a rider himself at the same Weyr. Though because of her many years of training her body, to never again be so weak and beaten up and almost killed like her father did to her, she did not get along with anyone of the Weyr that well because they kept on forcing her to be polite and nice and friendly with everyone.
Though when it was heard of the Western Continent Weyr though Linda was rather intrigued at the idea of a Weyr in a new place. Soon it didn't take much as her and her Brother went to the Weyr, transferred as a brown rider and candidate in hopes of a new better future and being helpful. So in Winter of the Turn 2581 her and her brother B'man went to the Western Continent Weyr for a new life.
When she finds out about the Attacks on the Dragons and people though, she will have mixed feelings. She loves Dragons and all their kind, but the Basilisk she would love too because they also kill those nasty humans. She doesn't really know how to feel about it and will probably end up being withdrawn from any conversation about it and only listen.
Relation to Existing/Pending Character?: She has an older brother that came with her to try to become a candidate as well, his name is B'man (Baengiman)
Future: Linda would love to see herself as a Dragonrider, or one of these other things as a rider. At least being able to help the weyr, she doesn't care if she gets one of the highest ranking colors or anything as long as she gets a life mate, color is in fact only hide deep. I would like to see her as a Dragonrider though, I don't mind if she is a rider of a male dragon or female, or dragon at all just being able to become a rider.
Pets: Name: Cad
Colour: Brown
Appearance: Being a rather light brown all over, he has dark splotches that cover his forearms and forelegs with an even lighter brown on the ridge of his spine between his wings.
Personality: He is rather carefree and lazy wanting to be loved on.
Name: Po
Colour: Black
Appearance: Jet black from head to foot, the only mar on this male's hide is a strip of dark grey going from between his wing, down his tail to the very tip where, just before the end, it reaches out around the tail like small misplaced ribcage. Small bronze size, medium build.
Personality: Arrogant, quiet, suspicious, highly sensitive, slightly morbid, intelligent. Seems to know something is going to happen before it actually does.
Dragons Name: Soarth
Colour: White (ffffff/cfcfcf)
Age: Dragonet
Hatching Season: Brazen Earth Clutch(Ariseth x Lumeth) Winter of the Turn 2581 Month 4
Appearance: It’s immediately obvious that Soarth's is not a big dragon, being smaller even than a green. And that’s even without his hide colour, one that has not been seen for many turns, but not one to forget. The majority of his frame is a snowy white in colour, dusted with a pale silvery grey behind his eyes, head knobs, shoulders, back feet and dripping from his neck and back ridges. When caught in the sunlight, evidence of many other colours can be seen, as if someone’s thrown a thin layer of different coloured powders at him. He's very lean and wiry, with short wings that give him unrivaled speed in the air and a great deal of agility, although Astaath isn't far behind. His neck and tail are also a little on the short side, making him very compact, but don't get in the way during tight turns. This agility is only hampered by the fact that Soarth has to see through another's eyes all the time, as he's completely blind.
Personality: Soarth is a very gently dragonet. He knows what he hasn't got and knows to be grateful for what he does have, and encourages others to think the same. He is very supportive to those in need, and is an excellent dragon to come to if you're ever feeling down. He loves children of all shapes and sizes, but his undying favorites are the firelizards. Though he will happily talk to anyone, never keeping any secrets, he is at his happiest with flitters, apart from being with his rider of course. He has an excellent memory, far better than a normal dragon's, and will be a natural betweener when his time comes, through time as well as space. As Soarth cannot use his own eyes to see, he instead used the eyes of those around him, tuning into their thoughts to the point where he can see what they see but not so far as to be invasive as to their thoughts. This does have its drawbacks though. Besides the fact that he insists that he asks before looking through the mind of another dragon's rider, he can only connect with those who are, or were considered, candidate material. Because he can only see what others around him see, he steps everywhere carefully, only utilizing his agility in wide open air where he knows he won't crash into anything accidentally. On the ground he's considerate of everyone around him, not wanting to step on anyone or knock anything over, though inevitably it does still happen occasionally. This consideration comes through in what he says and does too, as he will never knowingly cause another harm, and is always willing to use his considerable store of energy to help someone in need, or even just for a game. Oddly, he's a great lover of 'Hide and Seek'.
