Rank: Candidate

Physical Description: A cute girl who stands with the confidence of knowing so, Dystzha stands tall and proud with her chin held high. She’s caught somewhere in the murky cusp of soft cuteness and sharper angles of maturity, with a thin, athletic frame and mild curvature. Brown hair, so deep a shade that it rivals black in lower lights, falls to her mid-back, and usually partially up with braids. Her eyes are a mid-tone brown, warm and full of energy.
She’s got a bit of a vain streak running through her, for she knows she’s pretty, and does her best to play it carefully. Dystzha uses such little cosmetics at times, using hair style and simple clothes but nice accessories to make herself shine. The little things that she does to make herself seen just a bit more.
Personality: Never one to be shy, Dystzha enjoys plunking herself down infront of anything new -- be it a social group where she knows no one, a crafter who looks to be doing something interesting, or a storyteller going on about something unique. Dystzha has a zest for life, particularly anything new she can wrap her head around, and shows no fear in putting herself out there. If someone looks rather lonely, she’ll happily go introduce herself -- and take the initiative to drag them over to someone else and make even more friends. Her best foot forward always, Dystzha prides herself on being the curious, lively girl she makes herself known for. One of the first to volunteer, to never shy away from a challenge but also to let herself be seen. She does her best to promote this, and while it’s not far from the truth, there is still a superficial tinge to her.
Yet even if she jumps with one foot out, her other is still a bit planted. A nervous streak runs through her fiercely, and she cannot quite help but always look back on things she’s done, words that have been spoken. Did she hurt someone with a particular word choice? Perhaps that new friend only tolerated her presence. Dystzha harbors a great desire to find her niche in life -- for she has a great family, but some earnest friends, maybe a love, a solid place in Western Weyr, to hopefully impress… It leaves a cavern of ache in the teen, for a fear of failure runs a deep chasm. It drove her to ponder some craft, any possibility to fall back on should she not impress even before she had a chance to stand. A legacy of shadows she hopes to rise above, not be lost beneath the weight.
There’s a fierce competitive drive within Dystzha, one that is more-so stoked by her brother the most. She wants to be the best at what she does, and wants to come out on top. Any little thing can become a competition easily, and it’s not hard to bait Dys up to the task. Suddenly something as benign as making a bed becomes a competition to who can make it the fastest, or the most neat, or both. Who got to candidate lessons fastest? Clearly her. When Dys loses, it’s a hit to her pride, and though she’ll be nursing a sore and angry wounded pride, she’ll still give accolades or credit where it’s due. If she avoids someone who won in a bigger bet than her, if she happens to not come across them for the next few days, that’s an absolute accident and absolutely not avoidance on her part at all. It has led to the occasional shoddy chore, though Dystzha would never shy away from owning up to the fact that it was her who didn’t fully complete something. Even if she’s still itching from losing a friendly bet, Dystzha would never let something she did or did not do go to someone who did not earn that reprimand or praise. She would never shy away from punishment she rightfully deserves. Yet she does her best to mind where her manners are at, as well as anyone who many need reminded of theirs. When Dystzha puts her mind to something, she tends to buckle down on it. It’s hard to change her mind when she’s set onto something. She is very detail-oriented, wanting to make certain that all her i’s are dotted and t’s crossed.
Positive Trait List Outgoing, Responsible, Focused

History: Born as a weyrbrat in Western Weyr, Dystzha has lived a remotely average life for a weyrbrat. She grew up loving her family fiercely for every facet -- grandfather, parents, aunts and uncles, cousins, siblings. A close knit family inside Western gave her a sense of pride, for she came from a lengthy lineage of riders, and she greatly looked forward to each passing turn to where she could stand and try to join them up in the sky.
While she waited, Dystzha would take a peek at this craft or that. It was mainly out of curiosity, though some fragments wouldn’t deny that it was out of an internal fear at finding some kind of fall back incase she wouldn’t be able to stand, or if she might age out. A backup plan didn’t seem like a bad plan at the time, however her own perfectionist tendencies tended to futz with her ability to throw herself into something while seeing her beginning errors. It was good to throw herself into when Zhay had been able to stand for a few turns before she was able to, and Dys’ jealousy had flared up.
Just shortly after her 13th nameday, with her bid for candidacy just a turn away, that the unthinkable happened -- thread had returned. To see so much pain and agony within her home, to have suffered the loss of her aunt, never wavered her determination to stand for her first clutch, nor the subsequent hatchings beyond that. Though there is some nerves at the thought of failure, Dystzha stands just as eagerly three turns later.
