Character Number: 13th
Name of Character: Hennai
Age: 24 Turns
Gender: female
Sexuality: Hetero
Location: Darwin's Hold
Status: Healthy and Fit
Rank: Teal Handler/Journeyman Dragonhealer
Appearance: Black hair with light brown, almost amber eyes, and standing at 5'8". Her hair reaches to the middle of her back and is completely straight, not even the hint of a wave or curl. She generally keeps it up off her neck in a runner's tail or braid. Her clear blue eyes are always taking things in and hardly miss anything that happens around her, whether she has been there many times or not. She has filled out somewhat. She has curves in all the right places, and her chest area is…. moderate. Not eye catching but enough to make a man still look. She has a nice simple chin that moves up to high cheekbones. She has thin wide lips and thin eyebrows. She wears dark colors that go well with her olive complexion. She doesn’t dress up that much except for special occasions. She has a simple dark green dress that she keeps in her clothes press until she wears it. She prefers to wear tunics and trousers. She has a simple ring of silver that she wears constantly that is the only thing she has of her father. He’d bought it for her on her eleventh birthing day.
Personality: Tenacious, outgoing, romantic, domineering. Hennai is a very tenacious person when it comes to things that she has a deep involvement in. Especially when it comes to Whers. She loves whers and her beautiful green Hensk. She would do anything for her green Wher. She has a deep mindset when she is going about her duties, and does not tolerate any foolishness or fooling around. She has a business-like manner when dealing with anyone of a high rank. She is not the first one to relax and kick back when things are done, making sure everything is as it should be before she’ll allow herself to even think about relaxing. She is a very outgoing person, she’ll always greet people with a sincere smile and handshake. She is very friendly and likes to spend time with her friends if her duties will allow. Her favorite thing to do in her spare time is go for a hike with her friends.
Hennai is a highly romantic woman, and dreams of meeting the perfect male Wherhandler to be her mate. Though if you try and tell her there is no such thing as the Perfect Male Wherhandler, she’ll start to cry and say that that isn’t true. And then you will get an earful of ‘how there is the perfect mate on Pern for every person’, and not to mention that ‘I just haven’t found him yet’, and don’t forget the ‘that’s no excuse for me to not be looking and hoping’. Yes, she is a highly hopeless romantic. Though some might name her as an airhead when it comes to romance with Hennai. But when it comes to the training of Wherlings, Hennai is domineering and her business-like mannerism is back in full swing. She has a specific way when it comes to training Wherling Handlers. If she were on Earth, she’d be in the military. She has a quick mind and a flashing temper to bodes ill for anyone when she loses it.
History: Whers were all Hennai knew as a young girl. Both of her parents were handlers, her mother, Nimai of green Nimask and her father, Henrel of brown Henresk, Telgar Weyr. She knew Weyr living and loved it, growing up around Dragons and Whers. She ran with the other Weyrbrats, causing trouble, and taking the punishment for sticking that dead tunnelsnake there, and dumping that boiling pot of fresh made klah on that boy’s head. The usual feats of young children. She even shared the fighting as well with the bullies, even had one of her front teeth knocked out during a scuffle with a mean girl. The girl ended up with a black eye and a busted lip from Hennai. It paid to have two older brothers to learn how to fight from.
As well as having their fair share of bruises and cuts from their own sibling rivalry. She learned to roll with the punches and make sure she got some in before the fight got broken up. Hennai was about thirteen when her oldest brother, Nimarel, had purchased a firelizard egg and gave it to her as a late birthing day gift when he arrived back at the Weyr. Nimarel had been sent to the Smith Hall not long after he’d apprenticed to the craft and was now a Journeyman. He’d managed to save most of his earned marks to buy the firelizard egg. The egg hatched a few days later. It was a cute little green firelizard. Hennai went to feed it, but something spooked the little firelizard and she went between and never came back. Hennai was distraught at the loss of her birthing day gift. She ran from the house and her brother went after her. He promised he’ll get her another firelizard egg. She nodded and said ‘ok’, though she doubted that she’d ever get another one.
It came as a shock to their family when he arrived home at the age of 22 with a handsome Silver wher named Nimaresk. Henimar was 14 turns when he found a wild wher's nest by accident and managed to bond to a Bronze when the clutch began hatching. At the age of 15, Hennai was searched and she accepted but she was left standing. She stood for many hatchings, and she never held any hope of impression except for the thoughts of welcome and love she held in her mind during each hatching. She continued on with her Candidacy, and her studies as Apprentice Dragonhealer, standing for dragon and wher clutches, but she was always left standing. She was teased by another girl that had also been left standing after Hennai’s eighth clutch she had been left standing at. Hennai hated that other girl but tolerated her in the hopes that she would finally impress and the other girl would not.
Turns passed and Hennai turned 20. She was standing for another Wher clutch. This time a cute Teal male found her worthy. A turn ago she found an abandoned Wher egg in the wild and took care of it, hoping it would hatch. And it did. An adorable little Teal female bonded to Hennai then.
Pets
Name: Bastille
Species: Flit
Hex Code: D1A30C
Age: 5 Turns
Sex: Male
Appearance: He's a pretty bronze, if a little on the lighter side for his coloration. His front half is the darker shiny color of new bromze, which has quite a sheen on this little guy. As you get about midway through his body, however, it starts to fade into a paler color, lighter and more orange-y than his front half. The sheen also seems to die down a bit, which makes parts of his tail look almost matte rather than metallic. His wing membranes follow this same fade, though they manage to keep the metallic sheen, which can almost blind you when he flies at times. In build, this guy almost has the build of a smaller, lighter firelizard, maybe a copper or blue. He's lithe, and built very delicately, almost effeminately. It adds to his loveliness, but doesn't give him as much bulk as his other hatchmates. His wings are wide, lovely, and a little large for his body. It can provide some problems for tripping and overpowering flight, but otherwise they seem to fit him alright. He'll adjust, as most learn to. His tail is long, and whiplike, and his neck is a little shorter, but otherwise he's of a very nice build.
Personality: Oh how this flitt is a flirt! The little guy will fawn and chitter and croon over all females who come his way, whether they are firelizards or not. He aims to please, and to make females happy as they should be. But he does not stop there. Rather than being wary and even hateful of other males, he tries to draw them into the same behavior. He believes all males should treat all females this way, giving them endless doting and compliments. He is almost irrepressibly happy in this matter, and it would be very, very hard to bring this fellow down off his cloud of perpetual happiness. Sometimes its better to just go along with his 'ideas', or he will sulk. And his sulking is unbearable, absolutely unbearable. He will creel and drag around and be useless. So yes, he is a flitt best left to his own devices.
Wher
Name: Hennask
Color: Teal Male [04A390[
Age: 4 Turns
Ground Grew: Darwin's Hold
Status: Healthy and Fit
Appearance: He is a deeper teal than the other Teal wher. In fact, his coloring is quite dark. The shade is only interrupted to darken on his wingtips and tail’s tip. There are splotches of lighter colors as well. His underbelly, for example, is a lighter teal. Unlike the other Teal wher, he is exceptionally large. He is bulky, a muscular blob of a wher, enough to cause fear in any wher or human’s heart. His claws are turned in a little, and his tail is a bit…short, to say the least. It’s a stub, in fact. A little stub.
Personality: This wher has issues, to say the least. Everyone is out to get him. He doesn’t trust anyone, not even his. As a result, he will never form a strong bond. He seems to be somewhere else, involved in a different world. While he is distant, he always seems ready to pounce. Jumpy, even. And yet…he is always brooding and quiet. As if waiting for the right time to strike. Before anyone harms him or his, of course, but not too soon. Then he would get yelled at by his mother. Amarisk kind of…scares him. She is very scary, of course, and he believes she has it in for him. Unlike most whers, he prefers not to speak. He would rather only say what he must, and no more.
Name: Hensk
Color: Teal Female [08E5CB]
Age: 1 Turn
Ground Grew: Darwin's Hold
Status: Healthy and Fit
Appearance: She is a more flashy coloring compared to Hennask, and she loves the attention of the other male Whers. She has darker teal on her wing stubs and her legs. She is a bit on the burly side, but not by much as she is growing into her lean body. She's almost as big as Hennask now.
Personality: Hensk is not afraid of anything, and she's not a pushover either. She'll stand her ground and is protective of Hennask and Hennai. She is helpful with others and likes to go for moonlit swims with hers when they are not on duty. She will stand back and watch things before she does anything and will often wait for Hers to give orders.
