Name: Nata
Age: 16 turns
Eyes: Blue
Hair: Strawberry Blonde
Overall Appearance:
Nata has blonde hair that retains some of the strange reddish-brown color that was prominent in her father's hair, causing it to be a soft, strawberry blonde. It falls roughly to her shoulders, save for the jaw-length bangs cut around her face, and she always keeps it pulled back with some odd ribbon (she has a very extensive and diverse collection).
Her eyes are a clear, vivid blue, graced to her by both her parents, and her features are delicate and overal quite pretty.
She stands at about 5'5", with a nicely shaped, athletic body, though she isn't overtly strong, and she's still growing, so only time will tell whether or not she's inherited her father's height.
Her skin is nicely tanned, and graced with quite a few scars thanks to her daredevilry and competitiveness.
She tends to wear clothes that are decidedly feminine, but with more masculine inspiration, and never anything restricting or overly tight, for she needs to be able to move around and do any odd thing that comes to mind at any given time.
Significant Trait: She's... uh... awesome? XD
Personality:
Nata has difficulty lying to people, and is an honest and trustworthy as they come. She is flirtatious and open and very much likes the company of others, and if such company happens to be of the opposite gender, she can be quite the flirt. She doesn't do it on purpose, it's just her nature, and she often finds herself in the company of males if only, as she puts it, because they're 'less stuffy and not afraid to get dirty'. In that same 'flirty' right, she's known to compliment people, a lot, loving to feed their egos and watch them preen, though she usually ends up deflating them later. This flirtatiousness also translates into a bit of... dirty mindednes? Courtesy of her father, of course.
She's a hopeless romantic, thanks to her parents' constant 'mushy gushy-ness (her words)', and often finds herself lost in daydreams about dragonriders on King dragons wisking her away by the moonlight.
She is polite and courteous, respectful of her superiors, but she is lighthearted and loves to joke around, having no qualms about playing pranks on people that she cares about... and maybe a few that she doesn't She's something of a chameleon in social situations, able to adapt herself based on the people she's around, though there's always something decidedly Nata about her, regardless of how she acts. A warm smile, innocent tilt of her head of a mischievous glint in her eye.
She's incredibly competitive, and won't back down from any sort of challenge, whether the challenge be as simple as making another person uncomfortable or winning a staring-contest. In these situations, her scaredy-cat reputation (for indeed, she tends not to be very courageous), is left far behind as she pushes the fear down and attacks the task with fierce determination.
She always looked up to her father more than anyone, and her tomboyishness caused her to have more male friends to female. In this right, she hates to cry. She will stubbornly deny herself tears if she's in any sort of pain, swallowing them with steely resolve, and she will go to great lengths to keep others from seeing her in such a vulnerable state.
Crying is a rare occurrence for her, however, and she's generally happy, always willing to beam a smile at anyone or give her best effort to cheer a person up.
She inherited her mother's infectious laugh and smile, as well as her father's warm presence and love of seeing people happy. Also, she was graced with her father's charm, somehow along with her mother's modesty.
She would do anything for the ones she cares for. She can be very tomboyish, but sporadically girly as well. She doesn't have a problem with making an utter fool out of herself if it means she'll make someone laugh.
She has an amusing obsession with shiny objects and cute, fluffy animals, and will squeal girlishly over either, demanding to 'see', as in 'hold', anthing that catches her eye so that she can gawk over it.
Sexuality: Heterosexual (she likes teh boys XD)
History:
Weyr-bred, Nata's parents met romantically and they never let her forget it, often remeniscing about the time T'raen was giving his Bronze a bath and Ayanna, a mere Weyrling at the time, asked to join him...
She was raised on morals and courtesy, but her parents knew how to have fun, and she never felt opressed or overly protected. She was allowed to run and play as much as she liked, and had a firm set of friends in her home Weyr. Mostly boys, which she would spend day after day racing and tormenting good-naturedly.
Her family structure, as a whole, was loving and nurturing, and she was as close to her aunt and uncle as she was to her parents.
She loved the thrill of flying when she was very young(her father and his bronze were quite prone to daring and devillish stunts, and she loved every second of them), and always dreamed of being a Rider like her parents.
The dragons in her family were all slaughtered, a devastating and tragic event. It had been many turns since Nata was given the chance to fly again, but her father insisted she remember, though the shadow of his Bronze constantly hung over him. The once carefree and happy family had sunk into distress, and though they had their love for one another, there is little laughter left in them.
When she was Searched, her parents were overjoyed, though they let her leave only after she'd promised to return once her dragon was old enough to see if her siblings might be worthy of the same. Whether this is a feeble attempt to replace the dragons that they had lost is unknown, but Nata promised, and will do so.
