Name: Liera
Rank: Weyrling/ Sr. Apprentice Weaver
Dragon: Blue Matsimelath
Fire-lizards: Blue Jierou
Description:
Liera's short, 4'11" is almost generous, and angular. She does not have a curvaceous body, and healers constantly tell her to be wary of pregnancy, as her body would not handle it well. Her high forehead is strange compared to her face, making her eyes seem lower than they should be. Her nose is relatively large compared to her face, dwarfing her thin lips terribly, making it seem that her features are out of proportion with her body, when really it's just her nose. Her cheeks are high, and hollow. Her eyebrows are thick and dark. All in all, she's not an entirely attractive person.
Some do say that she has a special beauty to her, but it's difficult to identify. Once they do, they realize it isn't her face, but her innate sadness and fearfulness that is oddly balanced out by a ferocity like no other.
Her muscles are roped, tight on her small body. She's stronger than you'd expect one so small to be, but her years of drudgery and then later her training to become a dragonrider has strengthened her body. Her small bone structure keeps her from working too hard, but she can hold her own in a fight.
Personality:
Liera is currently in the process of a major personality change. Inwardly, of course, she is mostly the same person, but now she is learning how to keep from staying inside only. She's been slowly opening up for the past six or seven months, and now that Tugith's in her life, she's blossoming.
She's slow to smile, and quick to judge. She seems aloof most of the time, and has a bit of a holier-than-thou attitude of things. She finds herself, without quite meaning to, believing that whoever she's talking too is somehow inferior to herself. This she has been working on fixing since she first arrived at Great Cliffs Hold, where it was first pointed out to her. Considering the great levels of depression that are sunk into her, she doesn't quite understand this.
She rarely laughs, and when she does, it's a quiet laugh. She covers her mouth with her hands when she smiles or laughs, and looks down much of the time when she's in a "good mood." When in a calm or content state, or even hurting emotionally, she is quite willing to look someone in the eye.
History:
---Read like notes for now. Will fix later.---
Liera has seven siblings who are alive, and one who is dead.
Children of T'rel, her father, include:
Tiro (32, M), Rellie (27, F), Z'rel (27, M), T'ere (19, M), Zatelia (deceased, would be 14, F)
Children of Zalier, her mother, include:
Malik (36, M), Janmir (34, M), Rellie, Z'rel, T'ere, Zatelia
--
Zalier, T'rel and Zatelia all passed on a trip to see Zalier's parents to show the then two turn old to them. Liera was 6 at the time, and blamed herself for not begging to be brought along like she did most of the time.
She was sent to be fostered with T'rel's aunt and uncle, who disapproved of dragonriders. She was treated as a drudge to them until the grew weary of her "dragon smell." She was sent off to High Reaches at the age of twelve, six years after her work as a drudge, where she met Roula and Jiern, who taught her the weavercraft. Still working as a drudge, she secretly began studying weavercraft and at 13 was brought to the Western Continent as an apprentice to a master. It was here where she found her brother, T'ere, then Tereke, after years of separation. After living in the Hold for an additional three years, she earned Sr. Apprentice status and was on the way to walk the tables, when she and her brother was Searched.
She tentatively reached out and made some mild friendships at the Weyr, and even was given a fire-lizard from her first acquaintance, the then "nobody" Jezeni. She named the lizard after Roula and Jiern, calling the blue fire-lizard Jierou. Later, T'ere transferred to one of GCW's sister Weyrs, White Sands Weyr, and in anger and despair, she began to withdraw again. It was then that J'zeni became the Candidate Master. She segregated herself further from her weak friendships. Change terrified her.
When her brother sent word that he had Impressed, she felt an innate sadness. Deep within her, she felt that she would never Impress, not after a blue had Betweened at the first Hatching she stood at. Something within her had gone between with the "small" being. Then the Hatching came.
And she Impressed.
Age: Eight months
Dragon Description: A very pure shade of blue, Matsimelath is the only a few shades paler than the colour most people imagine when they think of a blue dragon. So far, he is an average dragon, his main distinguishing feature being his ridges, which are a dark ocean blue.
Dragon Personality: Matsimelath has two distinguishing personality features. First is his obvious youthfulness, which pops up when Liera is alone, and does not need to be with anyone.
The second, is his clear maturity, which is what most dragons meet. Generally if he's conversing with other dragons, Liera's conversing with their human. He becomes mature, impressive, and always helps Liera with her confidence.
He's also a very relaxed dragon. He's not as much as a puppy as other weyrlings his age might be, he's content sunning on the beach. He will play, in fact - he enjoys play. He just likes the feel of the sun on his hide, too!
Other Information: Matsimelath means 'root'.
