Age: 17 Turns
Gender Female
Appearance:
Ryala stands around 5'7", and weighs in at around 115 lbs. Her slender frame appears to be lightly tanned, though in reality that's just her natural skin tone. She has red hair and blue-green eyes. There's a small round birthmark on her upper left forearm.
Position/Rank: Weyrling
Weyr: Dovan
Personality: Ryala is generally outgoing (when she has someone to talk to), though she's not really sure what to say or do sometimes. Mostly, though, she's found that other people seem to leave her alone (when she's allowed to meet anyone). She tries to think things all the way through before deciding on a course of action. Growing up, she mostly preferred to quietly keep to herself and be respectful. However, she has grown rather rebellious, and now she can be extremely stubborn at times (her mother remarked once that she could give a rock lessons) and can get a bit of an attitude... especially if anyone questions her absolute disgust with dresses and skirts, or anything that's either pink or purple.
Short History: Ryala was born to the holders presiding over a small fishing community. The middle child of the group, she seemed to be blamed for any small thing that happened (as the older one was always "old enough to know better" and the younger one was "too little to have done it"... though it usually was one of those two that had done whatever it was). The day she turned fifteen, her parents had invited the sons of neighboring holders (with more prosperous communities) to dine with them, and by the end of the evening one of the lads had approached her father with a marriage offer. Unsure,she wished for more time in which to get to know him. Her father, having already agreed to the marriage, was none too thrilled by her reluctance, and had her locked in her room (with sewing to keep her busy) until she would consent to agree on the union. She had been in there for 2 sevendays when the Cataclysm struck the planet. In the sudden bustle to get everyone to safety, they were seperated from her betrothed. Now, two Turns afterward, they have re-settled on the newly formed coastline to continue their fishing, and word has reached them that the lad that she was to marry had also survived. Having had plenty of time to think back over the Turns, she'd long since reached the conclusion that she didn't much care for him, and had found herself glad that he hadn't been around. Late at night, she slipped away from the seaside hold and headed inland. Traveling by night and sleeping in well hidden spots during the day, she made her way to the Weyr. Shortly after her arrival, the eggs on the Sands hatched, and she Impressed her lovely green Blazeth.
Sexuality: Straight
Original home: New Tillek
Family Business: Fishers
Dragon Name: Blazeth
Dragon Color: green
Dragon Personality: Playful and energetic, Blazeth is likely to cause some mischief for her rider. If she's told something that doesn't coincide with her beliefs, she's likely to ignore it unless it can be proven. This may cause some problems if she's told to do something that she doesn't see the reason for. Still, when she sets her mind to doing something she does her best.
Dragon appearance:
Blazeth is lithe and graceful, with a lovely mid-green hide that appears slightly darker on her ridges. Due to the bit of eggshell that was stuck between her wings when she hatched, she has a pair of very small, thin scars just between her wing joints on her back (one on either side). From her current size, it would appear that she will be on the smaller side of things when she grows.
