Welcome to Gaia! ::

Name: Molliadne, goes by Molli (“Molly”) by most.
Age: 28
Sex: Female
Orientation: Heterosexual
Craft: Healer (of people)
Rank: Journeywoman healer
Physical Description: Standing almost at 5’8”, Molli’s the tallest of her five sisters, as well as most other women in Pern. She has a slender neck and a round-ish- oval face with high cheek bones, having so far aged pretty gracefully. She has ‘smile lines,’ which are quite appropriate considering her mouth is in some level of a smile almost 24/7, and there are some wrinkles at the corners of her large, honey-gold brown eyes. But other than that her skin is still relatively smooth, though the number of light freckles on its surface has likely increased throughout the years.

For the most part, her thick, bright red-auburn hair is still the same as it has been since she was a young child, but there are a few gray hairs here and there with the most prominent color change being a thin swath of light gray hair that lays down the left side of her face. Her hair falls in large, but tight, waves and has been cut to a mid-neck length out of a precaution due to the recent lice outbreak.

Relative to her height, Molli’s torso is longer than average and thusly her legs are a little shorter – this case being the same with her youngest sister, Ferris, as well as the majority of her other sisters. Running with these family traits, she’s a little busty, and possesses at least an average-sized pair of hips. However she’s much more slender than her sister Ferris and has a narrower shoulder.

Personality: She’s unflappable. Seriously. Calm, kind and motherly, she has the patience of a saint and a smile that’s almost as permanent as Barbie’s (but not as creepy…). Not much seems to be able to upset her, happily swaying off the arguments and angry voices of pissy patients with a good-humored roll of her eyes and an absentminded “Mmhmm…”.

Either because she lacks some tact (which seems to be a hereditary trait) or simply because she’s just that motherly type, she’s always the one to ask the small, personal questions that most people would find, well… embarrassing to ask. She enjoys friendly banter and chit-chat, but cares enough to know how her friends and patients are fairing and 20 times out of 10 she will offer all the help in the world to whoever may need it for whatever reason.

So while her patience, mmhmming, and her consistent smiles and laughter may bug the ever-loving hell out of some, all that she does is done with the very best intentions in mind. But how can one be so nice? so accepting and selfless?

Deep, deep down Molli harvests an intense …desire and need to be liked. It’s not fueled by some inner turmoil or sense of worthlessness, or some dark secret hidden in her past. In truth, she could probably procure no real explanation, and it’s possible that she doesn’t even realize any of it. But if it needed an answer, one could possibly say – in the simplest of terms -- that it’s just because she really…really likes being, well, liked (and who doesn’t?).

However, from this deep desire, she often tends to ... slightly maneuver her personality so as to gel better with someone else, and thus hopefully be more readily accepted and liked. Whether she realizes she does this is up for debate, and at times it can possibly give her an image of being a little 'fake' even though no harm is ever meant.

History: Ok. So. Molli’s past was honestly nothing spectacular whatsoever. She played the big sister and sometimes-mother roles, and still does at times, to her four younger sisters and occasionally her one older sister and blahblahbblah; she grew up in Igen and had lots of shits and giggles and got into some shenanigans that were inevitable with having five sisters, none said shenanigans being of the ‘oh my god scarred for life’ variety; her daddy didn’t beat her, her mommy didn’t hate her, she didn’t run away from home or elope with some vagabond with flowing tresses on a glittery white runnerbeast. When she was old enough, she became a Healer apprentice with a path in Human Healing, and as the years rolled on, she moved up to Journeywoman and landed at Ista… And basically never left.

THE END. Wasn’t that the most exciting thing you’ve ever read? I sure thought so.

Pets: She’ll eventually have a bronze flitter, but I haven’t figured out how to have her acquire it and such-and-such.

Other: There’s six of them, from oldest to youngest: Desdelle (31), Molliadne (28 ), Yosseane (24), Elke (23), Nanica (20) and Ferris (18 ).

Will this character be a candidate? Goodness no.

Picture: No not yet. Think Amy Adams as Amelia Earhart, but with slightly longer hair, and Christina Hendricks with short hair and ...slightly smaller boobs.
