Physical Description: For such a young age, Nonami can be so easily overlooked. They’re a touch on the plain side, a wallflower amongst their peers. A teeny copper thing standing at barely 5’2”, their build is slight, but some lean muscle that is stronger than they appear. Their But if there could be one word to summarize Nonami’s overall appearance, it would be mousy. Their hair falls down to their mid back, a soft pale brown that reflects their mother’s shade closely. It looks almost washed out in color. Bangs fall over their eyes, hiding the bright blue-green gaze from the world. Nonami’s dress style typically leans more to baggy, soft clothes. Even in the hot sweltering summers, they prefer clothes that can be so easily hidden in. Due to their penchant for baking craft, at most times spots and smudges of flour can be found on them.
Personality: For coming from two very outgoing and confident parents, Nonami is a shockingly introverted person. To a fault, Nonami is a very sweet individual. Their mother raised them in her coda; to be kind onto others, always keep arms open wide for anyone who may need it. They are selfless, always willing to give whatever is on hand whenever someone needs something. Sometimes that only thing they can give is a warm shoulder and some freshly baked good. Pies make for excellent comfort food, after all. Beneath that shyer exterior, Nonami is a rather affectionate person. They want to love the world, even if it’s rather.. Intimidating.
Yet Nonami has some massive shoes to fill--between a radiant mother, a master courtesan of a father, and a goldrider half-sister, they are nervous for the world. It’s left them rather.. Unsure of themselves a lot of the time. They try, oh do they try -- but insecurity bites hard, and often times their attempts at taking a step towards progress or being a bigger voice often end in cringing back into that internal shell. Hesitation has often led them to shying away from bigger things, unsure if they’ll be wanted or needed.
It’s a long road, but they want to help people. They want to be able to Impress their lovely, unique dragon, and be able to help defend Pern.
Positive Trait List Sweet, Selfless, Affectionate
Negative Trait List Meek, Insecure, Hesitant
History: Nonami was born as a product of a flight, the fifth of six biological children their mother would have (so far), to Amiari of green Cloveth and E’ros of blue Amoranth in Western Weyr. A quiet baby, they never cried much, and often times it left Amiari always checking if Nonami actually needed something and just wasn’t being vocal about it. Life growing in the Weyr during the peaceful turns was quiet, gentle. They spent most time with their mother and the gaggle of siblings and foster siblings. Cloveth, their mother’s dragon, was also a preferred playmate, for the green was always so friendly and loved being covered in climbing children.
Yet a lot of their time, especially after their eighth turn day, was spent wandering down again and again to the lower caverns with their older half sister. Ezyzu would show Nonami how to work around the kitchen when it was empty, and was the one who began to introduce a fierce love of baking and baked goods. While Ezyzu was a good teacher, they were eventually turned over to the bakers, who taught them things their older sister did not.
As they approached their tenth turn, they began to question their gender designation. It didn’t feel.. right. Neither did the other. Gender in itself never sat right with Nonami, and while it bothered them to have pronouns that didn’t feel right, their shyness often led them to never say anything for a long time. It wouldn’t be until thread returned, and they had to watch with bated breath and tears in their eyes with their siblings (and the newest in their eldest sibling’s arms) as Amiari and Cloveth arrived back at Western on a golden dragon’s back after being battered down by thread. The stress of almost losing their mother made everything explode from their mouth at Amiari’s bedside, the flow of tears that couldn’t quite stop. Their mother had gently shushed them, gathering Nonami in her arms as much as she could. The reassurances were gentle and roughly-voiced, but thorough. Throughout her recovery, Amiari helped her child feel safe and secure--in neutral pronouns and dressage that made them feel comfortable.
Nonami began to bloom finally, feeling comfortable and just a bit more confident. Finally able to enter candidacy after the hatching that their sister impressed to, they’re excited and nervous to finally be able to step onto the sands.
Other: Despite being majorly raised by Amiari, Nonami very much loves their father and has always been openly encouraged by their mother to keep in contact. They send letters and gifts in the form of tightly wound baked goods -- and looks forward to each and every visit.
