Name: Liniyah
Age: 20 Turns
Nameday: 3555.02.02
Sex: Female
Sexual Orientation: She’s pretty indifferent!
Craft: N/A
Rank: Weyrbrat
Location: High Reaches Weyr
Physical Description: Takes after her mother’s build and is short and curvy, with more weight on her thighs and hips. She has tawny skin, dark hair, and dark eyes. She’s usually seen with a smile on her lips, or staring absently into space.

Personality: Though a quiet girl, Liniyah’s the sort to kill people with kindness. It doesn’t matter how nasty or cruel they might be, she will never rise up and respond with anger or hate. Life can be hard enough, and having grown up with her mother’s temperamental dragon, she personally knows that one all sorts of things can be upsetting someone deep down. Her kindness should never be mistaken for weakness, however, and she will not hesitate to gently, but firmly put someone in their place if they seek to take advantage of her. She is even-tempered, and those who seek to get under her skin will find themselves in for a challenge.

For as gentle as she is, she can often come across as distant, and has little problem being off by herself. She’s more than content to watch from the side-lines, and often doesn’t choose to participate in big social activities. It isn’t that she’s unfriendly or shy--Liniyah just prefers to watch, because it helps her notice when problems arise. If someone seems to be struggling to fit in, Liniyah has no problems coming over to introduce herself and perhaps gently steering them into a group that she thinks they might fit into. She’s a perceptive young woman who doesn’t hesitate to extend a hand to those who might be struggling, but her tendency to watch rather than participate means she has few close friends. As a result of this, Liniyah is extremely awkward in social situations. If someone approaches her outside of an initial meeting, or when she’s helping them out, she clams up and really isn’t sure what to say. She eventually ends up excusing herself from the conversation and retreating, sweating bullets all the while.

Her mother is her biggest support base, never coddling, but always rooting her on, and Liniyah flourished under such attention. She knows that some people wait a long time for their dragon, but at 20 Turns already, she’s begun to quietly fear that she will never be as great a person as her mother--if she even Impresses. Thoughts of aging out plague her, and she struggles with the knowledge that maybe she just isn’t enough. She wants so much to be a person that people can rely on, and often overtaxes herself. Slowing down and taking time just for her isn’t ever on her mind, and Liniyah is determined to be of use.


Positive Trait List Kind, calm, perceptive
Negative Trait List Distant, fears being unable to measure up, awkward

History: The only daughter of Gloryah of Green Zeith’s, Liniyah grew up with all the love and support any child could ask for. It certainly wasn’t easy to be both a dragonrider and a doting mother--indeed, no one would have batted an eye if Gloryah had given the child to the creche. Gloryah raised her little girl with all the care in the world, encouraging her without spoiling her. Liniyah grew up idolizing her mother, and even to this day, she remains her biggest hero. Her father, L’mior, was a much more absent figure in her life, though he did make sure to stay in touch and visit her now and again. Liniyah never held it against him, and was quite content dogging her mother’s heels whenever she was able.

When she was of age, she became a Candidate--and those first few nights being away from Gloryah and Zeith were rough ones for the quiet girl. Though she overcame them, she never quite formed solid, true friendships with the others and seemed perfectly content with that. The day Thread returned was the most terrifying one of her life so far, as her mother, Zeith, and the rest of High Reaches immediately responded to the silvery threat. Though no one she knew closely died that day, the losses were still devastating after such a long time of peace.

As the Turns have continued to pass and with no young dragon to call her own yet, Liniyah’s began to wonder if she’s made a mistake by not taking on a craft--just in case.

Other: Daughter to Gloryah of Green Zeith and L’mior of Bronze ??? (NPC that I will make later)
