NAME: Azora
RANK: Weyrbrat
AGE: 6
GENDER: Female
ORIENTATION: currently unknown
PETS: N/A
APPEARANCE:
Azora takes after her father quite a lot. Her pale blonde hair will darken slowly with age until it reaches the same light brown/dirty blonde stage as A’zael’s. Her hair will always be long and straight and very well cared for. She also shares her father’s blue-gray eyes. Her skin is lightly tanned from growing up at Southern Weyr, and likely some of the lightness of her hair can be attributed to sunbleaching. Long limbed and willowy, she will grow into a tall, slim young lady.
PERSONALITY FAULTS:
She is very much a child, and as such, has very little inhibition. She tells it as she sees it and completely lacks any sense of tact. As she grows, she will develop the ability to know when she should or should not say certain things, but whether she cares or not will be another story. She very likely will continue to say what she thinks long after her childhood innocence has deserted her and taken away her excuse for being rude. She will never be one to sugarcoat things to spare anyone’s feelings, though that isn’t to say she will say mean or spiteful things on purpose, she is simply honest to a fault. She will have a bit of a problem with authority, disliking being told what to do and ordered around, and will likely get into plenty of trouble for disobedience. She is fiercely independent and will have trouble asking for help, the older she gets, becoming more and more stubborn. When she is older, she will be very aware of her own perceived beauty and become more than a little vain, but it won’t at all stop her from standing up for herself and the things she believes in, even if arguments come to blows. She’s very likely to inherit her father’s flirtatious nature as well.
PERSONALITY STRENGTHS:
She has clearly inherited her father’s self-assured nature, confident in her own abilities in all she does. Even when she has absolutely no idea what she’s doing, she is very good at acting like she does and soaking up what everyone around her is doing in order to pick up skills as she goes along. Observant and quick to learn, she is very bright. Independent and opinionated, she will have no problem speaking her mind and standing up for herself and things she deems important. Her mother has so far helped instill in her that she is her own person with her own voice and desires, and that they should be heard, and she has no issues with speaking up or shouting to make herself heard if no one is listening. She doesn’t mind getting down and dirty and doing hard work, despite her vanity, for she believes she’s beautiful even when covered in mud. She doesn’t mind lending a hand to anyone in need, so long as it’s her idea and she hasn’t been ordered to do it. Outgoing and, most of the time, quite friendly, she will have no problem making friends, though some might find her personality a little overwhelming at times.
FAMILY: A’zael (father, rider of Bronze Fath), Orana (mother, crecheworker), S’fin (uncle, rider of Green Rusath), Killos (uncle, Candidate),
HISTORY:
Orana grew up in Southern’s crèche, the result of flightlust. She never knew either of her parents, something that bothered her as she grew up. No one claimed her as theirs, no visits, her mother had simply given her the crèche and been done with her, it seemed. So when she became pregnant after a fling with a boy two turns younger she had grown up with, she promised herself and her unborn child she would be as involved as possible with it. However, the father was so young, only 15 turns, and had just started Standing as a Candidate. As much as she wanted to tell him, to force him to be involved like her own father hadn’t not been, she didn’t want him to hold himself back from his dreams and goals for a child he might not want and very likely wasn’t ready for. So she kept it to herself and began working in the crèche where she could care for her child alongside others.
And so her daughter was born, and she named her in the traditional way: Azora. She loved the little girl more than anything, and after giving her father a few turns to mature, she thought about telling the young man about her. However, the two of them hadn’t kept up with each other, and when she finally felt ready to tell him, she found out he had been transferred to Mavros, the new Weyrhold. She thought about sending word to him, but figured it was just too late; he obviously couldn’t be an involved father from another Weyr, and she didn’t want to make him feel guilty about not being there or anything, so again she kept her silence.
A short 6 turns after her daughter’s birth, however, she fell ill (with cancer) and the healers told her they thought she had maybe a turn left to live. Not wanting to leave her daughter without the knowledge of who her father was, or die without ever telling Azaelos about her, she managed to convince a rider friend to take her and her daughter to Mavros, where she intended to live the rest of her life after ensuring that Azaelos would be a part of their daughter’s life now that she could no longer be there for her. As for Azora, she is looking forward to meeting her father and exploring this new place, making new friends, and as of yet doesn’t know about her mother’s condition.
