Physical Description:
Nyviane is a soft and moderately curvy 5'5" with dark brown hair and warm brown eyes.
Personality:
Chock full of the charisma from her father's side that made them such good Traders, Nyviane is naturally personable, but in a quiet and easy way. While good with people, she's not aggressively outgoing: she doesn't push her company or opinions on anyone, at least not overtly. She can be gently persuasive if she feels someone needs to be convinced of something, whether it's to encourage them to try harder or to let go of a toxic mindset, or just something as simple as trying that new thing they're not quite sure about.
Nyviane is a wonderful cheerleader and support squad for her friends, always willing to help and do what she can. She enjoys being a help, just as much as she enjoys putting her time and effort to a task. And she does put her time into tasks: she is measured and meticulous about everything she does, and would much rather take her time and get something perfect than rush and have it come out subpar. She hates to be rushed or interrupted, and the resulting fuss it leaves her in can completely derail her task and leave her at a loss.
Her life and everything in it needs to be just so: Nyviane is exceedingly particular about everything from her space, to her appearance, to her schedule. She likes a predictable, structured life, especially having come from one that was anything but. When this is disrupted, it throws her for a real loop, and it can take her quite some time to settle herself again. If, for some reason, she doesn't have the time to get her composure back together, her performance will definitely suffer. She does not like surprises, or having to make a decision without the time to think it through properly. Spontaneity and Nyviane are not friends.
She is a creature of habit and discipline who thrives in a structured environment, and who also very much enjoys her creature comforts. There is little more satisfying after a long day of hard work than a good meal and a warm, soft bed. Nyviane loves little indulgences - and big ones - possibly a bit more than she should. Temptations can override her usually careful decision-making process, and while she won't take what isn't hers, if it is free for the taking...well, what's the harm?
Positive Trait List meticulous, personable, supportive
Negative Trait List perfectionist, habit-driven, indulgent
History:
Born to a then-unaffiliated greenrider, Lezia of Erinyeth, Nyviane was given to her Trader father and his family to be raised, though she did not lack all contact with her mother - her father and his family were simply in a better postion to raise a child. As it was readily apparent from an early age that she had a personality ideally suited for Trading, everyone assumed that she would ultimately stick with the traditional family occupation, but by 12, she had decided that that would not be her path.
Though it was exciting, in many ways, to be always on the move, Nyviane much admired the Holds they visited, and was both fascinated by and envious of living life in just one place. It seemed to her the ultimate luxury, to have a proper bed in a proper building, to always be safe and comfortable, and to have more than just a handful of things that were hers. With a love for beautiful things, particularly for the fine garments that they sometimes bought and sold but had little use for themselves - what use for a sparkling dress on the road? - she asked to go to Weavercraft Hall, and was sent with no argument. Her family would miss her, but if that was her path to happiness, they wouldn't deny her.
Nyviane thrived at Hall, taking to her chosen craft like a fish to water. She was dutiful and dedicated to learning, and was an easy student, never a troublemaker or rebel. She was happy to be there, and would never do anything to jeopardize her place. Though not unfriendly by any means, she preferred to devote most of her time to her tasks and craft, rather than to socializing. She did fall into a few friends, mostly those of similar focus, and was always willing to help if asked to do so. She was quite content, and eager to one day walk the tables and become a Journeyman...but then, in a twist she'd never expected in spite of having a dragonrider for a mother, found herself Searched to Western Weyr. She hesitated, weighing her options - she had put in Turns of hard work toward her dream, after all - before ultimately agreeing to go. Much of her family, due to their roving ways, is especially vulnerable to Threadfall, and she couldn't help but think of them.
She is a bit unsure still about this new direction, having been quite set on her previous path, but as structured as Weyr life is, it's far from uncomfortable. Just different. It also presents an opportunity to, perhaps, get to know her mother a little better.
Other: Daughter of Pach's Lezia!
