FAMILY:
RANK: Lord Holder’s Daughter
AGE: 22
GENDER: Female
ORIENTATION: Heterosexual
DRAGON: Green Sabellath
FACECLAIM: Abigail Cowen
Freckles:Deep Part when she thinks she's alone:
APPEARANCE:
Height & General Body Shape: 5’7” She’s a nice mix some height from her father, but the willowy elegant body shape of her mother.
Hair: Reddish-auburn, naturally wavy, thick, much like her mother's. Vanisha likes to wear it in such a deep part to one side, that there really isn’t a part to it, but only when she’s alone. It’s not lady-like to wear it such ways when in public, as her mother would say, so in public she wears it parted ever to slightly to one side normally.
Eyes: She has her father's eyes. Almost completely pure light blue eyes with an outer ring that is a deeper ocean blue, in her own opinion her one true beauty she doesn’t have to change to be “more ladylike.” Her eyes are decorated by her dark auburn eyebrows. Her mother is very adamant on plucking them so that they are shaped beautifully, to better show off her eyes.
Face: She has her mother's face, a strong jaw, and high cheekbones.
Skin: Pale skin, especially during the winter, with stark freckles. She’s heavily freckled on her face and shoulders, the freckles lessen a bit on her arms. Her mother seeks to keep her indoors during the warm month’s so that her skin won’t tan and freckle more. It’s just not how a lady should look.
PERSONALITY FAULTS: Docile, Non-assertive, Reserved, Deceptive
Reserved: It’s hard to know what goes on in her mind. Often she shows the face that people want her to show. She may hate sitting and sewing, but she’ll do it with a smile, and even comment on how much she’s enjoying it, while secretly starving to ride a runner-beast off into the sunset. If you express your desire first, her outward desire will reflect it. Her mother has taught her well when it comes to being a lady and doing as a lady does. Even direct questions as to how she’s feeling may lead to dishonest answers, if she perceives how you want her to feel.
Non-assertive: This is almost always an issue when she’s confronted by another non-assertive people, or two assertive individuals who want different things from her. Especially because she wants to make them both happy, and can become flustered when having to make a decision between the two.
Docile: She very rarely will ever stand up for herself. It’s easier to submit then make a stand. She readily conforms to all unless it directly interferes with her morals, and even then may only speak out gently, or retreat.
PERSONALITY STRENGTHS: Meek, Motherly, Patient, Perceptive,
Dutiful: Vanisha is very responsible and can take initiative with her duties. She follows orders, and goes above and beyond to complete the tasks set to her. She can be quite creative when it comes to people-pleasing and making sure her duties are fulfilled, especially when the two clash. She's very dependable.
Patient: Understanding that the needs of the household outweigh the needs of herself, she has learned that patience is her friend, because at some point it will be rewarded. She is quick to forgive and though harmful words hurt her deeply, she will almost never be pushed beyond her personal temperament.
Motherly: She is gentle and kind, a great ear for those in need, and even a better shoulder to lean on. She is often found encouraging other’s to follow their dreams, though she has a hard enough time doing that for herself. She’s always loved children, and will want children for herself someday, many, just as her parents have had. Her mother hen often comes out in panic, or over-caring for others, though a sharp word to refute her will put her off temporarily, she will often come back because she has to. She needs to make sure you’re okay. When Novarell was born, this motherly instinct really came out in her. Vanisha is quick to give of herself to fill other’s needs, even if it costs her personal happiness, she would rather see those she love’s happy, her happiness will fall in later. She loves her family deeply, and her few friends will have her loyalty forever. Even strangers can often receive this benevolence from her-she has a hard time not giving of herself, which may lead to burnout later.
Virtuous: She has lived a clean, respectable life-she has high moral standards, and follows them directly. She is not one to sleep around, drink for fun, or try drugs.

HISTORY: (at least 150 words)
Vanisha was the fifth child born of Lord Divano and Lady Relwisha of Tidewalk Hold. She was a healthy beautiful girl, and her father’s pride and joy. As a youth she had a bit more adventure in her little body that often had her coming home dirty and late, but Lady Relwisha fixed that right up with her soft consternations. Vanisha, being soft-hearted and a people pleaser started leaving the Hold less and less. It was easier to not get dirty and not be late when she stayed indoors. On one of her last adventurous outings, she was twelve turns old, and she fell off a runner-beast. She broke her arm, and her mother carefully and worriedly tended her, informing her ‘see, this is what happens when you don’t listen? Can you imagine if Novarell had gotten that idea from you? Do you want him to break his arm?’
The consternation from her mother, and her own concern for Novarell picking up bad habits from her shaped her into the docile little creature she is. The adventure, and her dreams, they are still within her, but often pushed aside for duties and other’s wishes. Vanisha was her mother’s little helper, taking care of Novarell when the Lady had other duties to attend to, working on her needle point, and her many lessons. Her life was the humdrum of any little lady’s life. Her father ended up being her one escape. He would take her on runner-beast rides, just around the Hold and sometimes off in the country-side. This shaped her into quite the Daddy’s girl. She is extra careful to please him and loves it when he spends time with her and treats her as a Lady. Often Lord Divano can be heard as he boasts of how she will make a fine lady to any Lord who proves worthy enough.
When she was sixteen turns old the idea of marriage began to be a possibility. She was courted by a few men, but none who passed Lord Divano’s approval. Time passed, and when she was 18 turns she started hearing rumors that the Lord of Jask was in search of a Lady, and her father had started negotiations. She had something to look forward to, a change from the humdrum, an opportunity to be her own person. A year later her father confirmed the possibility, and she met Degranik. Ruggedly handsome, a little unrefined, and very blunt. It was a refreshing change from other suiters she had had in the past, and a little exciting. She fell for him and for a turn and a half had hoped indeed he would become her spouse. Sadly, it was not meant to be. Though crushed, she put on a good face for her family. It’s what they would want for her, to move past this slightly embarrassing debacle. Though, she has since felt that she hasn’t met up to expectations.
2761: It hasn’t even been a full turn since the wedding at Jask, but her father is now working on a suitable marriage with the Lord of Igen’s heir. She met him a few months ago, finding him young, and immature. Her father, happy with the match has since been pushing plans into action, and she, unhappy, but unwilling to speak up for herself and disappoint him further, has gone along with it. With little to look forward to, she has become quieter and even more docile, it’s just easier that way. Her one joy will be seeing Novarell-now No’va, at his graduation feast.
What she doesn’t know, is that she has the same possibility of becoming a dragonrider herself. But will she take the opportunity that is presented at No'va's graduation feast, or let her family’s wishes override her own? Vanisha leapt at the opportunity, using No'va to assist in getting her into candidacy. Another block soon presented itself, as seemingly, Asirikai formed an attachment. The day he won Lordship of Mavros he made it clear he would make her his wife, though he'd let her stand on the stands one clutch. Never had she prayed so hard to Faranth, and Faranth seemed to smile on her, as the first time she stood, a beautiful pale green dragon approached her and claimed her for her own.
