About the Person:
Historical Facts:
For Dragonriders:
Name: Sanni
Age: 19 turns
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Rank: Storm Cloudrider
About the Person:
Physical Appearance: Her long dark hair is a source of near-constant annoyance to Sanni. It is usually worn in a long plait down her back or wrapped around her head. She prefers to wear nondescript tunics and trousers. She views dresses as impractical, especially in the weyr, generally only wearing them at feasts and other important events at which she must look feminine. Slippers are rarely seen on her feet, boots being her preferred footwear.
Her skin is fairly pale, as she is often kept busy in the kitchens or lower caverns. She prefers not to stand out in her dress or look, though she would never be called anything close to ugly. The only thing that she has no control over is her bright green eyes that would stand out even if her hair were matted and pulled over them. They sometimes bring her unwanted attention.
Personality: Sanni is a very determined, confident girl. She has no problem speaking her mind, even when it will get her in trouble. She really doesn't care what people think of her, which is good, since she can be a little self-righteous at times. When it comes to interpersonal relationships, she tends to push people away, and rarely lets anyone see past her tough exterior.
She holds herself (and unwittingly, others) to a strict moral code. If the weyr suddenly became a place that she felt was no longer worth what she gave to it, she would not hesitate to say something, and if that advice was ignored, she would leave without a second thought, with or without the Weyrleader’s consent. Sanni will also punish herself if she feels that she has done anything agaist that code, sometimes being too harsh in her self-punishment.
Sanni is a hard worker, and refuses to tolerate lazy people. She also refuses to let anyone think they are any less than what they are. Both of these are prominent personality traits of her own dear Liadanth, which causes Sanni to be constantly frustrated with the Storm Cloud. She works hard to bring the dragon's self-esteem and work ethic up, with some small success, though not much.
Historical Facts:
Family: Mother: Tallishea, deceased
Father: B'ram, Earthrider, 52 turns, transferred
Brother: Jeror, 13 turns, weyrdweller
Pets: None
History: Sanni was born in the Weyr, the child of a rider and one of the cavernwomen. She grew up in the kitchens, learning to cook and observing Weyr politics from a distance. She has lived a fairly independent life so far, and has formed her own firmly rooted beliefs about the world around her, which has resulted in her less than docile temperament. She took a weyrbrat's prerogative to stand for Impression at 12 turns.
She nearly did not Impress at Liadanth's Hatching, as her mother had sent her on an errand outside the Weyr just a few candlemarks before the clutch unexpectedly hatched. She arrived near the end of the Hatching, sure that she had missed absolutely everything. As soon as she entered she saw the dark, gloomy Storm Cloud hatchling sitting sadly on the Sands, just staring dejectedly at the Candidates. She perked up only slightly when the distraught Candidate entered, and she called to her. Sanni, Liadanth is hungry. She made no move to stand or walk toward Sanni, so the girl made her way over to the Storm Cloud dragonet and picked her up. "This is the only time I'm going to let you do this, you know," Sanni told her new lifemate. Despite their differences, Sanni gave all the love she had, never allowing Liadanth to get too down on herself or lazy.
For Dragonriders:
Name of Dragon: Liadanth
Age of Dragon: 5 turns
Color of Dragon: Storm Cloud
Appearance of Dragon: Standing at a quite respectable 33 meters, Liadanth is not by no means a dainty little lady. Her dark grey hide seems to be covered with roiling, almost black thunder clouds. Her wings are large and would be powerful if she ever did anything other than the bare minimum that Sanni makes her to keep in shape.
Personality of Dragon: Liadanth is generall a lazy, self-deprecating dragon. She barely believes that she is worth the effort it takes to keep her alive, though she could never seriously dream of betweening herself, if only for Sanni's sake. She does not enjoy Sanni's strict excercise regimen, though she does adore her rider. If it were not for Sanni's tough love approach to her bonded, Liadanth would have long ago betweened herself out of self-loathing.
Other: Pack-TAIL!
