Physical Description: Davril is quite odd for a girl, reaching nearly 6 ft tall and still growing, she honestly hopes that she’ll lose the race with her twin brother to see who hits the ceiling first, her height already makes her feel awkward and getting any taller would just be a hindrance really. The girl’s hair is stick straight and a deep chocolate brown. She’s never cut it so it hangs down to nearly her waist when she leaves it out of a band, which she usually does. Her eyes are the colour of melted caramel, but when she gets riled up they seem to darken.
In build Davril lands on the skinner side of things, she eats as much as her parents can spare to give her extra, but she doesn’t seem to gain weight. Her metabolism never seems to slow down to her dismay. With such a fast metabolism her body doesn’t hold onto much fat giving her a small butt and a smaller than average chest. Not that she minds, she isn’t interested in boys the way her twin brother is interested in girls. Not that she doesn’t like boys- she just hasn’t found one that’s caught her attention for more than a minute. Her skin is a deep brown courtesy of being outside in the sun for most of the day, helping to take care of her two younger siblings and twin brother.
Davril is a bit self conscious about her looks mainly because of her height, even though she has dimples and a pretty pair of eyes, towering over almost everyone is a bit uncomfortable. Not to mention her inability to gain weight, even though she’s no weakling she looks like one because of her skinny build.
Personality:
Davril, because of her height, is a bit awkward. She doesn’t particularly love the fact that she’s as tall as most boys and taller than most girls. Luckily she doesn’t become clumsy unless she’s really flustered, she usually spends more time tripping over her words and sticking her foot in her mouth. To combat her awkwardness she tries her hardest to be friendly and kind to everyone, the nicer she is the harder it’d be for others to notice her awkwardness, right? This doesn’t always work and people usually recognize her awkwardness along with her niceness.
The sixteen year old gets along well with females, able to carry on whole conversations without blushing once. When it comes to being around men who aren’t a part of her family, she becomes a bit shy, mainly because her height and build makes her feel not as attractive as all the normal sized girls. She has no problem taking orders from male leaders, but if she’s in a group composed entirely of men she’ll be much more reserved and quiet then say in a group of women, unless given some type of responsibility. If she has any sort of responsibility to distract her from the fact that she’s ordering around a group of males she’s able to ignore her awkwardness and get on without a problem. When in a group of females Davril’s not shy at all and will even take up a leadership position if the opportunity arises. Outside of group activities Davril is still shy around males, but she tends to blush and get tongue-tied much more when she doesn’t have some sort of responsibility to distract her.
History: Davril grew up around a lot of cloth, her mother was a Tailor and her father was a Weaver. Secretly she enjoyed growing up surrounded by the pretty things her parents would make, but she knew her twin brother hated it and so she spent most of her time with him, outside and avoiding the fabric strewn house. Sometimes when she couldn’t sleep and her mother was up working late she’d sneak into her work room and watch her work. She was usually caught and her good-natured mother would take pity on her and teach her small things. Most of it was practical work, mending small tears, sewing buttons back onto clothing and the like.
When she wasn’t staying up late with her mother she was out with her brother wrecking havoc. Well it wasn’t really havoc, more exploration and kid pranks. Davian would come up with all the ideas and Davril was usually the look out. She sometimes worried about getting in trouble but in the end she knew her brother would take most of the blame if anything really bad happened, that’s just how he was.
When she and her brother were ten and twelve turns old her parents had another girl and boy, respectively. That’s when the exploring and pranks stopped and Davril had to spend her time taking care of the Adella and Kiryin. She didn’t mind really, watching her siblings was honestly more fun than being a lookout for her brother. One thing she did mind was that she was the one doing most of the watching, Davian spent most of his time entertaining the children instead of taking care of them.
The next big change in her life was when she was sixteen turns old and a dragon and his rider came to Ista Hold conducting a Search. She had had a couple passing daydreams about being a dragon rider but nothing really serious. So when she and her twin Davian were picked to go to Ista Weyr she was shocked. Her first thought was to stay home, she had thought about becoming a Tailor or Weaver like her parents, but it didn’t take her long to change her mind. This was the type of thing that didn’t happen every day, and it was exciting!
