Rank: Candidate
Location: Landing Hold, but would prefer to be at High Reaches Weyr
Physical Description: While she won't be quite as short as Zamistia, the genes for small women didn't pass Tizenia up. At thirteen turns old, she stands at 4'9, and is likely to grow several inches over the turns. She carries some weight to her simply because of her height. She has coppery hair that falls in curls over well past her shoulders. It's fine, but she has so much of it that she plans to get it cut. It was once a head full of springy curls, but they have been weighed down by the sheer weight of her hair. Her eyes are blue and playful, and she has freckles across her nose and cheeks. She's tan and tends to wear looser clothing, especially when working at her craft.
Personality: Maybe a little too attached to her siblings, Tizenia focuses her attentions on them, struggling to share that attention with others. Others may feel ignored for her siblings, because whether positive or negative attention comes from this, Tizenia seeks out her sisters rather than other companions. Every time. Playmates were included in the household, she never had to seek out someone from outside their home. She loves making Zamistia and her older sister smile most. Her antics can be playful; whatever she feels will make her siblings smile in any given situation. Tizenia has slowly begun to learn that sometimes life makes it difficult to be happy. Life can be hard, sometimes life seperates people from the people they love most.
Life's certainly seperated her from her siblings. They've gone to their seperate crafts, and while proud of them, Tizenia hadn't been aware of how painful missing them would be. So she has taken to writing them. Especially to her oldest sister, who left when Tizenia was very young. At first, it wasn't much more than drawings, but as she grew and time went on, she sent as many things as her father's firelizard could carry.
Tizenia often finds herself comparing herself to her closest sister, Zamistia. Zamistia is so kind and helps so many people, but she, herself, struggles to communicate with those outside her siblings. Being the youngest child in the family, she was surrounded by her parents and siblings for the majority of her life. She never needed many friends, she had her siblings to play with. Until she didn't. She found herself having to take a craft and struggling. Being in the same craft as her sister helped with the initial learning curve, but it may have hindered her in learning to better communicate with others. With Zamistia, words were easy. As she got to know the craftmaster and the other apprentices, it became easier. Her insecurities with others lingered, however, and showed themselves especially as Zamistia was searched. When she does talk, it's probably going to be about how talented her sisters are, or maybe fretting over whether they're alright.
Despite insecurities, the girl is relatively cheerful. She may struggle with others, but she is confident in her craft. She knows she does well at her craft, but she wants to be with her older sisters. She wants nothing more than to be Searched. A chance at a dragon, to protect her family from the threat of the very real, and very terrifying silver menace, but more importantly, to be there with her siblings.
If Tizenia is prodded at, she can connect with others. Similar tastes or interests can help her open up. She's always loved animals, and so when she was encouraged to choose a craft, she knew where she belonged. With encouragement, she may ask others' their interests, and maybe about their own homes. Do they have any siblings of their own? She likes to listen to people. With Zamistia's fears, she has grown up learning to be protective of her middle sister. She is always quick to comfort her if ever need be. Yes, that could be dangerous, but it won't be, because she's there to make sure everything goes right. Yes, something could have gone wrong with that fish, but the Weyr made sure it was done right. They wouldn't risk getting everyone sick. Not with Thread back. Tizenia believes that as long as they're together, nothing can go wrong. She will happily walk with Zamistia where-ever she needs to go, she will hold her sister's hand if she needs to. She wants her sisters to know they never have anything to be afraid of. Except, maybe Thread. She has yet to figure out how to prevent that menance, short of Impressing and waiting to be able to fight it.
Tizenia tends to believe what she hears. She listens, and if she hears only part of a harpertale, she comes to believe it unless she's told otherwise. She trusts that people--and things are genuinely good. This can be problematic, because she confidently shuts down Zamistia's fears with a few words without taking the whole situation into account. Nothing will go wrong. Nothing can hurt them at the Weyr, they're perfectly safe.
Positive Traits: Hard Worker, family oriented, aware, energetic, cheerful
Negative Traits: Insecure, puts sisters on too high a pedestal, gullible
History: Tizenia was born the youngest child to a pair of farmers on the outskirts of Landing Hold located on the Southern Continent. Being the youngest child in a large family has it's positives and negatives, and Tizenia experienced them both. At an early age, she was aware that people you love leave you. They write, they come for visits, but it wasn't the same as having them there. She was always closest to her older sister Zamistia, but bonded with Belia during her many visits.
As she grew, she learned what death was through her beloved grandfather--she was only five when he passed away. People left. It was something that happened, and she had to learn to accept it. Her world kept getting smaller as years went on.Once she was old enough, however, she went on to follow her older sister to Keroon to study beastcraft, learning to herd. It was hard at first. Tizenia had never been away from her parents, and there were more nights filled with tears than she liked to admit.
She returned home after a single turn, to study the craft there.
Zamistia went further away, though, when she was searched, and while she kept in contact with Tizenia, the younger girl was devastated. It was almost as if her older sister had died. They were so far apart, she couldn't go to her as often as she would have liked.
