Physical Appearance

Physical Description Ilnerine is short- barely reaching 5'3". She's also almost painfully slender, wighing only 102 pounds. The first thing one notices about her besides her stature is her thick head of ash blond hair, either loosely hanging down her back or pulled back into a simple tie. Ilnerine despairs of her hair- quite frankly, it's unmaneagable, ends split and easily tangled. She has wide hazel eyes, an unusual mixture of grey, green, and blue, wpecked with amber and gold. She is extremely pale, but for a spattering of freckles on her small nose and her cheeks. Her features are fine and almost delicate, though she is possessed of a wiry strength that her appearence belies. She has an almost sharply pointed chin and high cheekbones, long golden lashes, and thin lips set in her oval face.

Ilnerine is instinctively shy and wary of strangers, known for her reserve. She is difficult to get to know, owing to her self-imposed solitude. She has a surprisingly quick temper, but she rarely lets her anger show. When she does, it's let out in startling bursts of fury or in cuttingly sarcastic remarks. Nevertheless, she is caring and sensitive by nature, preferring the company of animals and children to that of her peers. She is intelligent and endowed with an uncommon wisdom, but lacks people skills to truly put her assets to good use. She prefers the solitude of her own company and that of her pets. She is also stubborn, to the point of fault. She hates having to admit she is wrong. She is well aware of her flaws and consciously attempts to remedy them, but without much success.
Pet(s) Description Avin and Torell make their rounds in the weyr and the surrounding areas. Best Pals they keep themselves busy and out of Ilnerine's way while in class and doing chores.

Family


Personality & Traits


Personal History Ilnerine is now sixteen turns old. Her father was a woodcarver, her mother a midwife. Her father took her as his apprentice, and she proved an apt student. Her childhood mostly uneventful, at least until she was thirteen. She took sick a month after her thirteenth celebration of her birthingday. Many thought she would not make it, but she managed to pull through by sheer determination. She was fourteen before she recovered fully. Having been bedridden for an entire year, she was more than glad to finally get out of the Hold. On one early excursion, she came across an abandoned Firelizard egg. She tended to it religiously, ecstatic when it hatched and turned out to be a perfectly formed blue lizard. A few days later, her mother gave her a young canine, a soft bundle of fur that she loves deeply. Soon after she turned sixteen, a blue dragon pointed her out to his rider as a possible candidate for the next Hatching. Astonished and delighted to have been chosen, Ilnerine immediately agreed to go to the Weyr.
