Illistaya
Name: Illistaya
Character Number: 2nd
Age: 16 Turns
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Bisexual
Appearance: Ilistaya stands at 5'1 and weighs 130 lbs. Her hair is a deep auburn, almost brown, color with tight curls in it. On hot days her hair is pulled back so she can try to keep cool, but the rest of the time its down and carefree. Her skin is sunkissed from a lot of time in the sun. Every muscle in her body is hardened from a lot of use growing up.
Ilistaya's clothes are always comfortable. She wears whites and light browns and leather shoes. When its cold she wears the proper clothing and furs. The only time she wears dresses or other party clothes is when there are some kind of festivities like Graduations for Weyrlings and Wherlings. Her dresses consist of colors such as dark blues, dark greens, and even some light colors such as pinks and purples.
On really hot days she wears light clothes that help her keep cool. The material is very light (like cotten). She makes sure its soft, but comfortable. When the event arises she wears the proper swimwear into the water and tries to swim (she fails miserably). On occassion she likes to change her hair color from auburn to either black, brown, or red. The yellow colored hair never really suited her.
Personality: Ilistaya is a smart and caring girl. She has always been interested in helping others and was never afraid to speak her mind when she wanted to point out a mistake. Ilistaya thought it was better to be hit for speaking one's mind then not speaking it at all. Ilistaya learned from a young age that if one didn't speak their mind about anything then they wouldn't have the courage to stand up for themselves.
Death is not something that Ilistaya takes well. However, she will do what she can to make sure that families get to say good-bye to their loved ones if they don't make it. Ilistaya doesn't like to see families not being together in the final moments of the dying family member. Though she knows if the moment is sudden then there is nothing to be done about it.
Ilistaya doesn't like bullies or anyone who harms those weaker than themselves don't deserve anything. Ilistaya tries to protect those who hadn't been taught to stand up for themselves. If anything she will do what she can to get them to come out of their shells so to speak. Another thing that she doesn't like besides bullies is disorganization. Ilistaya tries her best to keep herself organized most of the time, but sometimes she fails and can't find anything. Being disorganized causes her to be frustrated and she doesn't like being frustrated.
One thing that Ilistaya is very frightened of is drowning. Since she was little she has just been naturally afraid of water... well not when it comes to bathing or drinking, but the kind where you have to actually swim. Ilistaya has tried hard to get over her fear, but she has yet to be successful. She hopes that she will have the help she needs and finally enjoy swimming like normal people.
History: Ilistaya was born to Bluerider M'kan and drudge Illista at Gureal Hold. Her sister was born in the spring two Turns before she was. When Ilistaya came along the family was happy. They had two healthy daughters and cared deeply for them. M'kan wanted one of his daughters to follow in his footsteps, but he didn't want to push them. Ilistaya and Milakan always fought as to who would follow their father. Both girls had been sent to the Halls when they were 13 Turns old for training.
Right away Milakan was into Harpering and when it was Ilistaya's turn, Healing. The girls learned everything they could and more. Ilistaya studied hard and healed when healing needed to be done. Ilistaya and her sister watched as other apprentices were Searched. The girls made a pact that they would not stay jealous (if they were) at the other if they were Searched.
Two Turns after Ilistaya was at the Halls another band of Searchriders came. The Searchriders listened to their Dragons and then listed the likely Candidates for any upcoming Hatchings whether they were Whers or Dragons. Ilistaya had been busy putting a salve together when her master came to get her. On the way she saw her sister too had been summoned. When the pair reached the Dragonriders they saw a lot of the other apprentices there. The Dragonriders went through and pointed to the Searched ones. Then a Greenrider came to Ilistaya and Milakan. Ilistaya waited with baited breath and then the rider pointed to... her! Ilistaya had been Searched! With excitement she climbed onto the back of the Greenrider's Dragon.
The band of Searchriders disappeared Between and reappeared at Kahool Weyr. Ilistaya was excited to have been Searched and she couldn't wait to start her new life. Ilistaya wanted to help Heal others until she was chosen by a Dragon.... if at all. Ilistaya vowed that she would be a Dragonhealer if she did not Impress. She wanted to help heal the people at Kahool Weyr no matter what happened.
General Health: 100% Healthy
Weyr: Kahool Weyr
Craft: Healing
Craft Rank: Apprentice Healer
Rank: Dragon Candidate
Preference: Topazes, Blues, Greens, and Amythests. I think they would be good for her because they have awesome personalities and one of them will match hers. Also mauling goes as far a a few broken bones. No near death experiences ok.
