Name: Twyla
Age: 16
Rank: Candidate
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Looks: Twyla is a rather plain young woman as far as appearance goes. She is medium height, about 5'7, and her build is unremarkable. She has yet to achieve the firm fitness of the dragonriders, but she doesn't have much excess fat on her. She does have curves, but not enough to say that she has an "hourglass" figure. Her hair is a light, dirty blonde color. It falls to her mid back and she has never worn it short before. Her hair gets curly in humid weather, but for the most part, it falls in a gentle wave. Her eyes are a striking, vivid green. Many would say that Twyla's bright smile, which rarely leaves her face, is her best and most distinguishing feature.
Personality: Twyla is a bit of a drama queen. She is an optimist, and her smile rarely leaves her face, but when it does, you better watch out. She has a famous temper. Her wrath is usually provoked when her close friends are in danger, or if she thinks an injustice has been committed. Twyla is a very honest person and she hates people who lie or cheat to get their own way.
She is a bit ADD, and she can't stand still for long. She is always moving, literally and figuratively, making new plans all the time, and fidgeting whenever she has to sit still. She is an outgoing person and will walk up to just about anyone just to say "hi."
Most people wouldn't guess that Twyla is a HAD. She prefers to keep it hidden because of her experiences in the trader caravan. She usually loves her ability, but sometimes it does get on the annoying side. Now that she is in the Weyr, she hopes to work on making the ability easier to live with.
History: Twyla was born into a trading caravan, the son of two of the traders, Banyen and Okela. She had an exciting childhood, with lots of little adventures and plenty of things to see all over Pern. She spent a lot of her time with Jakkin, a boy only a turn older than her.
When she was only five turns old, she started telling everyone about the voices she heard whenever dragons passed overhead. No one understood, and most of the people in the caravan thought she was crazy. Only her parents, Jakkin, and a few others believed she could really hear dragons. Even with the support, however, her childhood was never easy after that. People called her "crazy dragon lady" and the other kids were always picking on her. She never knew being a HAD was an honor in some places. The teasing hurt, but she managed to stay optimistic.
When she was thirteen, Jakkin suggested they strike out on their own. Twyla agreed, always ready for an adventure. Together, the pair wandered Pern, trading some of their own goods and making what marks they could to survive. Three turns later, a dragon spotted them on a routine Sweep. He noticed Twyla first, but ended up Searching them both.
-If a Candidate:
Color Preferences: Pearl, Gold, Scarlet, Green.
Pearl: I really like them, and it would be interesting to see how an ADD Queenrider would work. xD
Gold: Kind of the same reason as Gold, because Twyla would be an amusing Queenrider, and it would be fun to give her a bossy, vain dragon.
Scarlet: I like the idea of a small but still clutching dragon, and a scarlet would probably suit Twyla well.
Green: Twyla is basically your classic Greenrider, so I had to put it down. I love greens, anyway.
Colors NOT wanted: None, but I'd kind of prefer a female dragon for her.
