--> The Basics
[->]Name: Zenniel
[->]Age: 15 Turns
[->]Gender: Female
[->]Rank: Weyrling
Physical
[->]Hair: Zenniel's hair is a light, almost bleach-blond coloring. No other colors exist in it, and so one would not see brown, red, or black. Her hair is not bleached, however, but rather natural. It is straight, and never frizzes.
[->]Eyes: Zenniel's eyes carry a light blue hue. So light blue that they are essentially silver. In the light they look just like that, but in the dark they seem to take on a darker hue, looking dark gray or black.
[->]Height: Zenniel is 5'6" and still growing.
[->]Weight: Zenniel weighs a scant 110 pounds.
[->]Defining characteristics: Zenniel has a strong, lithe form. Her skin is slightly tanned from being out in the sun almost every day. She has muscles from working with herdbeasts. Her muscles do not show, as a male's muscles may. Her legs are muscular, too, since she loves to run. Zenniel has an almost childlike face, even if she is a teenager. A smile is almost always plastered upon it. She has full lips, a dainty nose, and a fair complexion. She is one of the few teenagers who don't get acne regularly. Working on a farm is hard work. The girl is not perfect, and so has a few scars from her work. Two are on her left arm, a small one on her wrist, and a larger one extending from her elbow to halfway up her arm. Both are healed seamlessly, and do not hurt. She has one on her right arm, from the middle of her lower arm circling almost all the way around like a bracelet. One scar can be found on her left shin, where a herdbeast kicked her, and another can be found on her right ankle, where she tripped and fell onto a metal box and cut the ankle up. No more scars can be physically seen when she wears her clothes, though there is a small one on her back, lower, that looks vaguely like a tear-drop.
[->]Anything extra: Her normal clothes include wherhide boots, a wherhide jacket, a pair of pants and a shirt. She also wears wherehide gloves most of the time, and her left arm is wrapped in cloth. This is because she is left-handed and a lot of things (hides, claws, horns, ect.) scrape against her arm.
Extra
[->]Personality:
---> around friends: Zenniel is an outgoing person, and she is always the kind of person who wants to keep everyone happy. She does not, however, crack random jokes. She just relies on her happy aura to cheer everyone else up.
---> around adults: Zenniel is a polite being by nature. She always says 'ma'am' and 'sir', or if speaking to dragons, she tries to be as polite as possible. Another two of the words that she likes to use are 'please' and 'thank you.' She is not overly polite, though. Sometimes, around adults she doesn't know she can get shy. The vice versa could work, also, whereas around adults she does know, she can show her outgoing side.
---> around dragons only: Though this would be a rare occurrence, Zenniel does like talking to dragons more than humans. Sometimes she talks to herself, but, depending on the personality of the dragon, the dragon chooses to talk to her. Dragons talking to people who aren t their Riders is not uncommon in the least. These times are considered 'herself' times, where she can just be herself.
---> around herdbeasts/other creatures of the sort: When around herdbeasts Zenniel adopts a calm, caring attitude. She is very gentle with these also-gentle beasts, and it seems as if she knows them more than she knows humans. She works with them carefully, teaching them (the ones not used to feed dragons) to work together and multiple other things. She has always had a special bond with these animals and so feels the best around them.
---> general personality: When around anyone in particular, Zenniel becomes a mix of her different personalities. She is happy, yet polite. She is caring, yet shy. She is everything at any given moment of time. She is also very intelligent, but does not like to gloat about it.

[->]Pets:
name: Xiri
species: fire-lizard
color: blue
appearance: Xiri's hide is a light blue, almost creamy-blue color.

color: bronze
appearance: Cree looks more brown than bronze, but when looked at closely, he has a metallic sheen to him.

Both fire-lizards are trained to send messages to and from places, and arrive on a spoken or silent command.
[->]History:
Zenniel was born on a rainy afternoon to Chloee and Christianson. Chloee and Christianson were both modest farm workers, their jobs consisted of sowing crops and raising various beasts to be traded. Zenniel was brought into that life full-force, and loved every bit of it. Near her second Turn of life her mother birthed another child. Unfortunatly, the child had a rare disease and died three days later before a Healer could come. Zenniel, being only two Turns old, was too young to remember.
For four more Turns Zenniel grew up as a worker on the farm. She watched many births and many deaths in that time. She also watched as animals were carted off to places unkown to her. She discovered that she had a special bond with the animals she worked with around her seventh Turn of life. She could sense the animals' feelings as well as communicate more with the animals than her father or mother could.
She told her parents, and they took her to the Weyr's Healer. He said that she had nothing wrong with her, but that she was just so good with any type of animal. Surprised, her parents took her back to their modest farm, and watched her work her magic on the animals, despite what the Healer said for her to stay at the Weyr and receive training.
Around her Tenth Turn of life she was the only one at her farmhouse one day. That day a herdbeast decided to give birth. After an excruciating amount of time a baby herdbeast was born. Zenniel named the herdbeast Misfit for apparently no reason. When her parents returned they were astounded. A girl of only ten Turns had helped a herdbeast give birth (though they shouldn't have been, since she lived with herdbeasts every day).
Her eleventh, twelfth, and thirteenth Turns of life were spent learning. Though many on Pern were taught at a young age, her parents had needed her at their farm, and so only now could she go out and learn the things youngsters did when they were 3. She learned ceaselessly, she learned to write, to read, and to do 'rithmatics. She was sent to the Weyr to learn these things. She became very adept at ciphers, and her teacher was impressed (even though he didn't show it, she could feel it) with her ability to understand. She returned home her fourteenth Turn to teach her parents (who were educated at one point, but needed to be re-taught some things) and rest. Her parents had a surprise when she came home, and they presented her with a fire-lizard egg.
Soon after, to her complete wonder, the egg hatched into a small blue fire-lizard. Zenniel named the fire-lizard Xiri. Xiri acted like all young fire-lizards did, and ate, then slept, then ate again. Zenniel marveled in the little male's shiny hide. Only a couple months passed before a trader's caravan stopped at their abode. They only stayed for a while for some Klah, and some trading, but it was long enough to trade five herdbeasts for another fire-lizard egg. The five herdbeasts in question were Lucky, Carool, Namoor, Kalon, Misfit. She watched as Misfit trudged away, but she had earned hides and a fire-lizard egg.
Only a few sevendays later the egg hatched to reveal a small bronze fire-lizard. Zenniel promptly named him Cree for his loud, creeling voice. Now she had a nice (but more like a green because of his nature) blue fire-lizard, Xiri, and a lazy bronze, Cree. It was in her fifteenth Turn of life when she was Searched. Now she lives at the Weyr, a Weyrling with her new dragon, Purple Lupercaliath, nicknamed Lupe.
For Candidates Only:
[->]Sexual orientation: Heterosexual
[->]Colour: Purple
[->]Name: Lupercaliath (loo-per-cay-lee-ath)
[->]Name theme: Named after the Pagan festival of Lupercalia, which it is believed the Christian church created Valentine's Day to replace
[->]Appearance: Rich amethyst, with a light bronze sheen to her. She is quite small, even for a purple, and will grow to be near perfect in conformation.
[->]Personality: Lupercaliath is a strange creature. Her moods can change on the whim. Normally, though, she is of a nice behaviour. She, like Brangwainth, thinks out her words, though she is usually more hyper. Her mind-voice is serene, not at all like Zenniel's.
