Below you will find a list of all the ranking members of the Weyrhold. These are all people that most of the general population should have some knowledge of, even if they only know their names and ranks and might not be able to pick them out in a crowd. Some will have proper bios, which will be linked so you can read more about them if you wish, but most replaceable NPCs will only have a short summary about them found here.

S'bol of Blue Nesporth (NPC)
Sex: Male
Age: 37
Assistant Candidate Master
Haella of Green Tsulocanth
Sex: Female
Age: 21 Turns
Headwoman: Shennah (NPC)
Sex: Female
Age: 57
Summary: A fast friend and supporter of Oria, Shennah has been Headwoman since the founding of Mavros. There is no doubt that alongside B'rax, she has been one of the main pillars holding Mavros up through its many tragedies. She is a steady and calm presence and has a wonderful skill for keeping her head in even the most dire of circumstances. A solidly built woman, she is no great beauty, but that hasn't stopped her from birthing a number of dragonriders' children in her life.
Weyrhealer: Master Nadeera (NPC)
Sex: Female
Age: 48
Summary: Nadeera has only recently come into the position of Weyrhealer after the previous Weyrhealer retired when his hands became too unsteady to continue his work properly. She is talented at her craft and tends towards motherly toward both patients and subordinates. She is quite pretty, with soft curves and nimble fingers, dark hair, and dark eyes.
Weyrharper: Master Clintock (NPC)
Sex: Male
Age: 54
Summary: A thin, gangly man, with hair that has already gone completely silver, Master Clintock is incredibly passionate about his craft. So passionate in fact that he rarely speaks of anything else and can be rather one dimensional as far as conversational partners go.
Headcook: Mindara (NPC)
Sex: Female
Age: 47
Summary: A surprisingly tiny woman, Mindara is sometimes mistaken for a 'brat or a candidate, much to her annoyance. She has a sharp tongue and a sarcastic streak, but her bark is usually worse than her bite, unless it involves her work in the kitchens at least. She runs the kitchens like a true military operation most days. When not at work, she is a terrible flirt, and has quite the fondness for dragonmen. She took over the kitchens after the poisoning of Oria.
While Mavros now has a proper Lord Holder in place for life, the Senior Miner, Senior Herder, Senior Fisher, and Senior Farmer are still elected at turnover every turn from among the Masters in their respective crafts. Only Journeymen and Masters in the craft are given a vote. They speak for their fellow crafters and bring the craft's needs to the Lord Holder, as well as keep him informed of the craft's production and progress throughout the turn. Only the Minecraft, Beastcraft, Fishercraft, and Farmercraft elect a Senior to represent them as they are the only major craft presences at Mavros. Any holdside healers and harpers report to the Weyrhealer and Weyrharper instead, while the presence of any other crafters at the Weyrhold is minuscule, so the Lord Holder is expected to see to their needs.
Lord Holder: Asirikai
Sex: Male
Age: 22
Steward: Tolf (NPC)
Sex: Male
Age: 62
Summary: Tolf was a loyal steward for the Lord Holder at Cove. He was also the one to teach Asirikai that throwing knives was a better option then punching his subjects. When his lord holder asked him to prepare his assistant to take his place, he was disheartened. He wasn’t ready to stop his work. So when Asirikai won the Lord Holdership of Mavros, and asked him to take the place of steward, it was a blessing in disguise. Retirement was not for him. He brought his family to Mavros without delay. Tolf is tall, spindly, and sharp eyed. He likes order, has very little humor, and is a hard worker. He is more despondent since his wife’s passing, but the work will be good for him.
Headwoman: Torli (NPC)
Sex: Female
Age: 38
Summary: As the daughter of Tolf, it was natural to want to be a headwoman. But seeing as her older sister would take the position at Cove Hold once her mother retired, she had given up on that dream. She had all the training and no opportunity. This led her to cooking for a little while, that is until her father announced his new position at Cove Hold. Torli’s mother’s passing meant the next best person for the job of headwoman at Mavros was her, and so when Asirikai also had a letter sent to her, she couldn’t pass up on her dream. It helped she’d be able to help take care of her father as well. Torli is a mid-sized woman with a lot of spunk and a firm hand. She’s motherly (which is why she has six children), and loves a good bubbly pie.
Head Guard: Nedric (NPC)
Sex: Male
Age: 28
Summary: Nedric’s previous life before Mavros was made up as him training to be a guard at Tidewalk hold. When his fiance’s family decided to make the move with the traditional believers of thread, he followed along. The tragedy of early threadfall ended up killing his wife-to-be’s father and brothers, leading to an earlier wedding then they had planned once they settled in Mavros. He took over their fishing business with what little ships were left, though he never loved it. When Asirikai came to Mavros, it seemed the perfect opportunity to return to his previous and more desired occupation, especially as he truly believed in Asirikai and his goals for Mavros. He stands with Asirikai, a staunch supporter-leaving his in-law’s fishing business to one of his sister-in-laws husbands. Nedric is blunt, quiet, but sharp-minded, with just as sharp a wit. He’s handsome enough, but uninterested in any but his wife. His loyalty is unquestioned.
Senior Miner: Galderran of Bronze Galdersk (NPC)
Sex: Male
Age: 49
Summary: Galderran, like the Senior Farmer, has held the position of Senior Miner since the founding of Mavros. He is a monster of a man, with pale skin, pale hair, and pale, unnerving eyes, which perhaps puts others off from challenging him for the title. Not to mention his massive, intimidating bronze wher. Regardless of his intimidating presence and how seriously he takes his job, he is otherwise a very easygoing man that enjoys a good laugh. He is in charge of not only the miners at Mavros, but also the wherhandlers. The miner population is not a large one, as the miners exist purely for structural purposes rather than mining for product.
Senior Herder: Alnerat (NPC)
Sex: Male
Age: 53
Summary: The Senior Herder position seems to swap between one of two men, the younger and more progressive Rastenon, and the more conservative Alnerat. Currently Alnerat holds the title. He is a tall, thin man, that seems rather deceptively frail. Even more often than Rastenon, he is at odds with the Senior Farmer for one, being a woman and a master of her craft, and two, wanting to use the limited land available to Mavros for different purposes. He does, however, have a good relationship with the Senior Miner, who offers his wherhandlers to patrol the beast pens at night to protect the herds from felines and wild whers on the island.
Senior Fisher: Vestor (NPC)
Sex: Male
Age: 51
Summary: With the largest population of crafters being fishers, the Senior Fisher position has changed hands every turn since the founding of Mavros, though a few of the same men have held it multiple times. Vestor is one of these men, without a doubt skilled in his craft and well respected for his knowledge. He does have a bit of a temper, however, and a tendency to overindulge in alcohol while ashore, which is probably why he hasn't been able to hold on to the position of Senior Fisher more reliably. He is of average height with dark hair streaked with silver.
Senior Farmer: Pirra (NPC)
Sex: Female
Age: 59
Summary: As the oldest member of the council and the only woman, Pirra is a no-nonsense individual, and looks the part, tall with sharp features and a heavyset build. She has a wealth of experience and knowledge as a master farmer and is often at odds with the Senior Herder over land in which she wants to plant but which he wants to use to expand the beast pens. She has held the position of Senior Farmer since Mavros's founding and is highly respected amongst the Mavros farmers.

She took over the kitchens after the poisoning of Oria.
Hold Leadership
Mavros is a WeyrHOLD. The island is home to a holder population that is near equal to the population of weyrfolk. Beastcrafters, minecrafters, and farmers alike make their homes in the beasthold (which is also where Mavros's weyrlings live until they receive their weyr assignments), while a large population of fishers make their home in the harbor caverns. Various other holdfolk make their home amongst the crafters as well. While the Weyrwoman and Weyrleader are the final authority in all Weyr-related matters, the hold side of the Weyrhold has their own leadership.While Mavros now has a proper Lord Holder in place for life, the Senior Miner, Senior Herder, Senior Fisher, and Senior Farmer are still elected at turnover every turn from among the Masters in their respective crafts. Only Journeymen and Masters in the craft are given a vote. They speak for their fellow crafters and bring the craft's needs to the Lord Holder, as well as keep him informed of the craft's production and progress throughout the turn.
