Approved by Tsunake

Name: Uuni
Age: 21
Sex: Female
Sexual Orientation: Bisexual
Craft: N/A
Rank: N/A
Physical Description: No matter how hard she tries, Uuni simply can’t get a tan. Her skin is on the whiter side of the inhabitants of her Hold. This doesn’t seem to bother her any; it helps to flaunt her waist-length and naturally very dark hair and brings her nice features to focus. She’s been told she was beautiful before, but she generally tends to laugh and move on. Maybe it’s the pale blue eyes or the fact that she’s generally smiling, but there’s no doubting that she has looks.

These compliments probably have nothing to do with her chest size. There are many days where she goes without a supporting undergarment because she simply does not need one. There’s a chance that these comments have to do with her waist and hips as she’s been genetically blessed with swift curves.

When it comes to muscle structure, Uuni has a thin body but everywhere but her waist (and breasts) seem to be thickening with age. And when it comes to clothes, Uuni has a distinct hate for pants. Not only do they not fit her sometimes because of the growth in her hips in the last few years, but they’re absolutely uncomfortable to wear. However, anything but pants is generally considered acceptable. A nicely cut garment that brings attention to her legs is probably preferred.
Personality: Uuni is an off/on type of personality. She has a happy, go-getting nature, and it is almost impossible to get her angry. Her most often expressed emotions are confusion and flirtatious joy. On more unique occasions, a bit of annoyance will join the emotional bunch.

Above all, Uuni does not believe in violence. She may think about it, and sometimes make very vocal exclamations of frustrations, but under no circumstance would she raise a hand to strike another.

Besides her general personality, Uuni traditionally used sexual interaction to chase away stress. It was for this reason that she could remain so upbeat, but it also made it very hard for her to make friends. Now, however, with traumatic memories back in action, Uuni is having trouble even using that method to relax. There is a lot of guilt she faces with any sort of sexual interaction and it may take her another turn before she is mentally ready to slide back into her old habits.

In the mean time, she has a higher level of stress, and is having trouble, but is slowly learning other methods of coping with this stress. She knows full well that if she isn't emotionally stable, or close enough to it that a dragon will not be alarmed, she will not Impress. If she does not, she's destined for home - a place where there is no future, freedom, or potential - and she is, though she won't admit, extremely scared of having to face the Hold world again without support. In essence, she realizes that Impressing a dragon, someone she can finally relate to without fear of abandonment, is really her only option.

It might be noted that she has a timidness around adult dragons. She does just fine with the baby dragons, but past a certain size, Uuni would rather avoid them than greet them. It's a fear that she can likely be worked through, but it also stunts some of her potential friendships with older dragon riders.

History: Uuni comes from a very conservative, and very talented family. She has two older sisters. One is supportive and kind, and the other is harsh, stern, and down to business. On her mother’s side, there lies a very quiet, smart woman who takes delight in the studies of histories, records, and all of that boring bookwork.

Her father makes his knowledge apparent in building designs, holding locations, and all of the logical and detailed workings of what is required to sustain a community in a given area.

With such a talented family, it’s only natural that Uuni herself should have some inborn talent, right? No. Except maybe sex, but it is not a talent her parents condone.

The most of her life has been spent making do with her small persona in such a successful world of people. She’d help out every member of the family because she had to, and whenever she could manage, she used the comfort of someone else’s house and someone else’s bed to get out of her house.

Because of her hate for her family, Uuni sprung on the opportunity to leave. At age 17 a brown dragon on the search removed her from the boring, mundane life that was home. She met another young woman in candicacy and although the relationship developed into love and monogamy, it ended badly. The girl grew a paranoia that she would die before her nineteenth turn that eventually did end in her death.

The trauma has mostly been swept from Uuni’s mind through her body’s natural instinct to have her forget all of it. If asked, she will have no knowledge of those prior events and there is a semblance of made up stories to explain the past three years of her life.
Pets: N/A
Other/Talents:
-An outstanding singing voice (although you’ll never actually catch her singing)
-Moderate cooking skills, although she hates to do it
-Finding loopholes in any sort of legal document or verbal agreement; she can generally asses a suggestion and determine what is good or bad for her in it with unnatural speed
-Very squeamish of blood
-She does in fact love flowers
-Favourite color is yellow
Will this character be a candidate? Yes

Unfortunately, nymphomania is considered a mental condition and, in this shop setting, would mean a dragon would not Impress to Uuni. :c Her fear of dragons, if it's really as bad as your description said, would likely distress the dragonets and ward them away from her. Those are the only two things I saw that weren't good.

Also, just for my own curiosity, what did happen to her ladyfriend? :<

Easy fix to that! I'll just remove her from candidacy.

As for her friend, it was a farming accident, basically. A Draft Runner spooked and you can guess the outcome from there.

Changed the title and pertinent candidacy parts of the form.

Oh, I see! And you don't necessarily have to remove her from Candidacy if you'd like her to be one--you can just tweak the nymphomania so it's no longer a condition so much as it's an addiction or something of the sort? She could just really like sex. -muses-

Also, if you do plan to not have her as a Candidate, would you still like her at the Weyr? If so, I'll need to talk with Sou about how that'd work out, but I think she'd need a job of some sort... -taps chin-

Well, she uses sex as stress reliever. I always filed it as nymphomania because of that, but I don't know if it can be wholly classified as the mental disability. She doesn't really use it as comfort or the search for intimacy like most nymphomaniacs are supposed to do.

Addiction works fine in that sense, so I don't mind removing the mental disability part of it. It doesn't affect her ability to do anything persay, it just makes her a little more prone to being frustrated if she hasn't had it. And, as for the being afraid of dragons, her ladyfriend could easily have made her work through that fear, at least when it comes to the little ones.

If the character was plenty okay with young dragons, but still a bit timid of adult ones because of their massive size, would that work out alright?

If that works out, I'd be happy to keep her as a candidate. If not, any sort of job she'd be liable to do in the Weyr will be fine; i wouldn't mind her taking up any job you'd like to assign the character.

Yes and yes to both of those thing! Adult dragons are huge, so I don't see why someone couldn't be a little "@___@;;" over them. As long as it isn't like mind-yammering phobia fear, the dragonets will be just fine. Just remember though, if Uuni does indeed Impress, she'll have to hold off on any intimate moments with anyone else so she doesn't warp the baby's mind. <3 That sounds good though, and then I have no problem with her being a Candidate. <3

I think I've fixed up and revised the glaring parts in the form, then!

I'll definitely keep that in mind if she does Impress. She can be a very frustrated woman until her Bonded grows to an appropriate, stable age. With all the tasks she'll have to do around the Weyr, it shouldn't be too bad at all.

Sounds good to me, and should be very fun to see played out! -fixes the title-

Updated age because of the canon turns and personality to compensate for character development.
