Name: Oralia
Rank: Weyrwoman
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Description: Oralia is a slim, girl, petite at only 5'5". She had short shoulder length wheat blonde hair, beautifully curly and always shiny and vibrant in colour. Delicate and fine boned, Oralia gives off a fragile air. Small in the chest Oralia’s petite figure is rather boyish only her feminine face and longish hair stop her from being confused with the boys. Her eyes are green not the dark emerald green of a forest but a bright jade green, sparkling with intelligence and a child like innocence. Beautiful, really beautiful, if only she would see herself as such.
Dressed in either light blue or green dresses or skirts, Oralia doesn’t wear much in the way of jewelry the only piece she owns being a pendent her brother gave her just before he and his dragon succumbed to the illness just before the hatching of the clutch she stood candidate for.
Personality: Oralia can be described in two words, shy and clumsy. Oralia is soft spoken and shy around people, being a gold rider and the Weyrwoman doesn’t help either with it drawing a lot of attention to her. Preferring to just blend with everyone rather than stand out like she does is making her nervous around others to a point where she sometimes stutters. Sensitive and easily upset she can be a bit of a problem sometimes. In certain situations she's not afraid of standing up for herself or others but sometimes quickly looses her courage before she can really get going.
Most people wonder why Zahavahth the gold even chose her, Oralia was too shy and too timid to ever be a gold rider. Most said she’d never impress because of it, those who thought she’d impress only said it would be a green for the girl was certainly as flighty as one. Oralia lacks in confidence as she depends on Zahavahth for it, her worst fear though is when Zahavahth takes to the skies for her first flight. So far Oralia hasn’t proved to be much of a Weyrwoman as the duties are starting to drag her down making her depression at failing her Weyr and herself set in alongside despair.
History:
E’tan [father/Bronze Rozloth,52, deceased]
Maliha [mother/green Najath, watch rider,44 deceased]
Imaran [eldest brother,25 married Treasa, deceased]
Eytan [second eldest brother,23 married Karlyn, deceased]
J’rek [third eldest brother, rider of brown Vintith,20, deceased]
J'rik [eldest sister, rider of blue Tenseith, 20]
Kosa [younger sister,4, deceased]
Treasa [sister-in-law,22, deceased]
Karlyn [sister-in-law,20, deceased]
Ista Weyr was where Oralia was born, the child of a weyrmated pair, E’tan of Bronze Rozloth and Maliha of Green Najath. The couple had already four other children, three boys and a girl, all were crèche raised though both E’tan and Maliha visited as often as possible. When Oralia was old enough she too joined her siblings in the crèche, her brothers fiercely protective of her and her sister like a little mother despite her young age. Though it was her brother Jedrek she was most attached too, despite him being 7 turns her senior.
Oralia was always a shy child and being protected by her brothers never helped her situation either. To her father however she was daddy’s little girl and this didn’t sit well with Jerika when he began to pay more attention to Oralia than her. Oralia never noticed this and continued to be nice to her sister not noticing her ever withdrawal from her. 2 turns later her eldest brother Imaran left Ista to pursue an apprenticeship in the beast healer craft. Oralia was only two turns old and for her it felt like she’d lost her brother, though she got over it pretty quickly since she wasn’t quite old enough to have any coherent memories of anyone.
Another two turns past and Eytan her elder brother left to become a healer, by now however Oralia had know Eytan long enough to miss him and constantly ask where he was. Imaran however came back to stay as he changed his mind and became a Dragonhealer apprentice instead and was sent back to Ista, though it took two turns for him to realize he didn’t want to be a beast healer. Shy at first Oralia didn’t really recognize her brother, but once he visited her enough times she remembered him more and relaxed around him.
During the first 6 turns of Oralia’s life her father’s affections for her grew and it was soon as if Jerika never existed. This however was the last straw and sometime during the night Jerika slipped free of the crèche and of Ista Weyr away from the memories that had become painful for her. Oralia was terribly upset the next day and withdrew more after the disappearance of her sister. Soon though it was as if Jerika never was for Oralia as she got older remembered less and less of her sister, soon she couldn’t recall her face and it wasn’t long after that she had trouble remembering her sisters name.
Two turns after Jerika’s disappearance, her brother Jedrek was searched for the clutch on the sands. Oralia was ecstatic when her brother came away as J’rek rider of Brown Vintith. As the days and months went on into turns Oralia grew in to a beautiful young girl her older brothers, Imaran and Eytan both getting married to two wonderful girls whom Oralia accepted as sisters due to their loving nature towards her brother and their family.
Her mother added another child to the family too about the time the boys got married, a little girl she named Kosa. However their father E’tan and his Rozloth perished in a training accident, *betweening* in panic something that shouldn’t happen to an experienced rider like him but did.
Maliha was much grieved at the death of her weyrmate and companion and shortly after the birth of her daughter committed suicide with her lifemate Najath. This shook the family hard as their mother had never been an unstable person, or so everyone thought when they realized it was E’tan’s death that had sent her over the edge. J’rek, Eytan and Imaran all reasoned her break down and inevitable suicide to the disappearance of Jerika, Maliha plagued by the guilt of her daughter’s disappearance.
However a turn and a bit before Oralia’s 16th turning, an Illness struck and some of her family made up the first casualties, those being Imaran, his wife Treasa, Kosa and Karlyn, Eytan’s wife. The death of Eytan’s wife gave him a reason to help with the finding the cure to the disease with the other healers. However Eytan never completed his work succumbing to the disease before any progress could be made. Now only Oralia and her brother J’rek were left alive and soon after Oralia was searched by a stray search rider who succumbed to the disease shortly after searching Oralia at Ista. Together J’rek and Oralia transferred to Igen where Oralia was turned down being told her search was not a valid one, however another Searchrider searched her before the clutch hatched. By this time J’rek had become ill showing signs of the sickness that had killed so many.
Less than a sevenday before the hatching J’rek called Oralia to him and handing her his pendent told her to have faith because it wouldn’t be long till she impressed and he was sure she would, in fact he was the only one who ever told her she would make a wonderful gold rider. It was also J’rek who made her promise him that if she did impress gold that she would learn as much as she could so she could help when the time came.
J’rek never found out how right he was because shortly after making his sister promise he passed on the keen of the dragons outside as Vintith *betweened* sent a chilling coldness through Oralia and for once she was alone, the thought in itself sent a wave of fear through her. Trying to keep true to her promise though she tried to be brave as she walked out onto the sand a couple of days later; however she was scared almost too scared to walk on to the sands.
The hatching came and went so quickly Oralia didn’t even notice the hatching of the queen and the voice in her head calling to her until the little queen butted her to catch her attention. Filled with love Oralia oblivious to everyone else found confidence in her golden Zahavahth. Once the moment passed though she was fully aware of the disappointment in the crowd as most expected the strong willed Ralye to impress, but she did not leaving the sands failing once again to impress despite the support she had from others. Ralye committed suicide after the hatching because she failed to impress and had run out of chances to stand.
Oralia thrown into the position of Weyrwoman after the current Weyrwoman Second perished from the disease, followed soon after by the Weyrwoman. However as the sevendays went on the duties took their toll on Oralia as she slowly withdrew more and more, becoming increasingly sensitive to insults or things that went wrong for her. Zahavahth became Oralia’s source of confidence though the duties are taking their toll on Oralia’s mental and physical health the girl almost too depressed to leave her weyr afraid of failing not only her weyr but herself and the promise she made to her brother.
Dragonrider
Name: Zahavahth
Age: 20 months
Colour: Gold
Rank: Weyrwoman’s lifemate
Appearance: Zahavahth or Zah is a small gold, small and lean with a long body. She has an unusually large wingspan and a long whip cord tail. Delicately built Zah looks like a slight breeze would knock her over. With long legs and her delicate body, Zah is defiantly feminine in her appearance. Her hide looks like someone has taken the stars from the sky and sprinkled them all over her pale yellow gold hide, highlighting it with little silver-gold stars. Her colouring darkens slightly only on her muzzle wing tips and tail. Zah takes a lot to bath as dirt tends to show up easily on her pale gold hide.
Personality: Despite her appearance Zah is a confident bubbly, energetic gold. She loves everyone and yes like gold expects everyone to love her back. Strong willed and very much the opposite of her rider Zah is the mother and protector. She’s a fierce young lady to go up against when she’d not happy and she’s certainly not happy when her rider isn’t. Most argue that if Zah had chosen the other girl then maybe the Weyr wouldn’t be in as much trouble as it is now, but Zah of course shuts them up by reminding them that a dragon chooses and that if Oralia hadn’t been on the sands she would have *betweened*. As she gets older and matures more she’ll settle down into a nice motherly wise and all knowing kind of gold but for the moment Zah is still very much a child though she’ll always have her mothering tendencies now if only her father Zenth would allow her on the sands to help him, she could develop them more.
