Greenrider Allaidh - Played by: Venssea

Name: Allaidh
Age: 17
Sex/Preference: Female/heterosexual
Rank/Title/Position: Wingrider
Current Location: Kalarak Weyr

Physical Description: There would be little about Allaidh that would stand out if she would dress in what would be considered "normal" holdergirl clothing. Fairly attractive with large blue eyes and medium brown hair, she would be pretty enough to catch the eyes of a few male holders, although none of them too rich or attractive. She smiles easily, making her face very friendly and likable, even if it isn't found attractive. Her hair, hanging down to her waist, is her pride and joy, and she spends a rather ridiculous amount of time attempting to make it appear as perfectly as she wants it to be. She's of average height and tending towards a skinny build (it wouldn't be fair to call her slender), partially due to the fact that she fights her natural plumpness my rarely eating.

However, the one thing about Allaidh that is rather remarkable is her clothing. While living at Cliff's Edge Hold, her clothing was thought of as entirely tasteless and unnaceptable, as it was rather tight-fitting and cut to flatter her figure. At the Weyr, though, it is considered more than acceptable, and she wears her bright, slightly revealing clothing with pride.

Emotional Description: Allaidh is not what one would consider to be a typical Holder girl, quite happy to "flaunt" herself in order to gain the attention that, as a younger, less attractive daughter, she was rarely given. It is not a matter of self-esteem nor the need to feel wanted; she merely enjoys gaining attention that her sisters were usually the first to receive. However, at the Weyr, she realized that her requests for attention were not as pressing as they had been at Cliff's Edge Hold, where she was under pressure to find a suitor. She still continued with her appearance, though, and was quickly and endthusiastically able to adapt to the Weyr morals.

Still a bit wary and put-off by homosexual relationships, the only things that she regreted about Weyrlinghood was the six months of celibacy. That Impressing a green holds the options of having the green flown by another woman's blue.

Outside of her "loose" attitude, Allaidh is quick to anger and slow to defend herself, fearing conflict with not only those above her, but her fellow Riders, as well. Although she will eagerly listen to gossip and remember it when making judgements about someone, she is slow to disclose anything that she has heard about her peers, knowing that it could easily come around and be fatal for her. She's not a backstabber nor a manipulator, but when it comes to looking out for someone, she will choose herself over her friends. Quick to learn and devoted to her craft.

Brief History: Born as the fourth child of a Journeywoman Potter and a kitchen worker at Cliff's Edge Hold, Allaidh had an essentially normal childhood for any Hold girl, learning the basics of cooking and cleaning fairly easily. However, she was quick to pick up on the fact that her elder sisters were going to have much more luck when it came to attempting to find suitors. In an attempt to catch a wealthy one, she began to dress in a way that was thought of as unwholesome in any Hold setting, and her parents were beginning to be rather frustrated with her attitude, which severe punishments and one light beating hadn't helped.

However, the last straw came whenever she was accused of sleeping with one of the Lord Holder's sons, who had only recently been married. The watchrider at Cliff's Edge Hold took pity on her after she admitted to the crime, and "Searched" the young woman in order to take her to Kalarak Weyr, where no punishment would be given. While at the Weyr, it was quickly realized that she was fairly smart and skilled with her hands, so she was Apprenticed to the WeyrWeaver.

Abilities/Strengths/Weaknesses:
Abilities- An above-average weaver, she has an eye for patterns, colors, and what goes together. Has common holdergirl skills beyond that, nothing more.
Strengths- Weaving is her main strength, although emotionally, it's her ability not to relay gossip to others.
Weaknesses- Can memorize something, but is prone to forget it in the next few hours; has 'little' problem with being thought of as a "witch" by other girls.

Attatched NPCs: Born to the Journeywoman Potter Sellin who was permanently stationed at Cliff's Edge, a minor holding, and a kitchen worker, Ionah, Allaidh had four other siblings, three elder and one younger.
Sionan- 25, male, married to Asha, stablehand at Cliff's Edge Hold
Nalli- 22, female, married to Jaranilmar, cotholder's wife
Sanizal- 21, male, married to Narlion, Jr. Journeyman Potter
Linandi- 14, female, marriage to Perkan pending, kitchen worker at Cliff's Edge Hold


Dragon name: Arlisgionth
Dragon color: Green
Age: 1
Fighting Wing:
Adult Size: Medium-Large

Description: Arlisgionth is a lovely shade of green, the color of bright sea kelp in the sun, and has gentle brushes of golden yellow-green along her underbelly and along the underside of her neck. Her muzzle and claws darken slightly to a rich, moss green, and her wingspan, though less broad than any other green's, is definitely larger in length, allowing her greater maneuverability and higher flight speeds. Arlisgionth's eyes are also slightly larger than is normal for a green dragon, which makes the green appear younger than she actually is. She is quite intelligent for a green, despite their known short memories. She's forthright and outspoken about her opinions dragon who loves to sun and splash in the water. Arlisgionth thinks that she can sing as well as her rider and tries to do just that and quite often.

Personality: Arlisgionth does have a bit of vanity, and often burnishes herself in the sand and asks her rider to oil her to make her look shiny. She's a bit of a saucy girl, and does like to inject the occasional smart remark or two. When it comes to other dragons, especially blues and browns she doesn't know, she's very affectionate and welcoming, and will often fly of her own volition down to the newcomer to welcome him or her with nuzzles and playful and excited circling. Her mindvoice, just like Allaidh's, is quick, fast, and sometimes almost unintelligible. Like rider like dragon, at least with Allaidh and Arlisgionth, is all too true.


Craft: Weavercraft
Rank: Junior Apprentice
Specialty: None yet, newly Apprenticed at Kalarak Weyr
Strengths/Weaknesses: Has a sharp eye for colors and patterns, knowing what will work well together and how to get there. Artistic in her work. Weaknesses- Can't memorize the steps to make a certain color dye to save her life, or really anything, for that matter.
