Taken from hereName: Shalaera (Shaa-laa-air-uh)
Age: 22
Sex: Female
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Craft: Bakercraft
Rank: Journeyman
Physical Description: A little shorter than the average height for a pernese woman, standing at about 5'4", Shalaera isn't an 'impressive' female, but she does have enough of a figure, namely in the hips, to make childbearing in the future no hard task for her. She boasts the same dark skin, in her case littered with freckles, that most Weyrborn children have, as well as a mass of well-kept, medium-length brown hair. Howevever, due to the simple 'neutral' coloration of her skin and hair, her blue eyes are that much more striking -- at least until one gets used to them.
Personality: Shala is something close to 'obsessive' in her habits. Because of this, she has a tendancy to set her hopes and dreams up much higher than is feasible for her at any given time, thus often getting her hopes crushed -- most of the time she recovers quickly and positively though. Her recent emotional blow has left her to 'busy' herself with kitchen work in a mood much like that of a girl who just got dumped by their boyfriend so he could chase prettier girls around.
Socially, Shala makes friends and associates easily enough. However, due to her position she doesn't really 'hold on' to any of them, due to schedule conflicts. Shala isn't picky about her company, anybody to talk to that she knows is worth sitting down to chat when there's the spare time to do such.
Generally a pleasant person, give or take her current state of affairs.
History: A weyrborn child, Shalaera was given the opportunity to stand at Impressions at an early age, as she didn't have to be 'searched' like a good portion of other candidates. However, year after year she failed to impress -- in fact, her standing was finally put to an end when she grew too old to stand at impression at all! Given her lack of roots elsewhere, she took up work inside the Weyr taking care of the nutrition of riders and candidates - currently she's currently 'moping' about while working.
However, there may be something in her future to help her 'compensate' for her lack of dragon-partner, as she's been debating trying to get a Flitt.
Pets: SEE BELOW POST C:
Other/Talents: Cooking (HIGH) - She's one hell of a cook, and definitely knows what's good for little candidates and not-so-little riders. Shala is thriving under her new craft given her failure to become a rider.
Memory (HIGH) - She'll remember at least names and choice of meals of people she sees enough times. Possibly more. On the flip side, if you don't pop up too often, she might forget you!
Will this character be a candidate? No sirreee! She's too old and definitely past time to do so.
