History:
Sassy weyrbrat with a capital 'S' ! Has a good relationship with her dragonriding father, though she has no wish to get to know her mother. Definite daddy's girl, her only source of social discipline are the working women of the Weyr who had the rearing of her. (Barring the occasional lecture of duty to the Weyr she receives from her father.) She hasn't had anything terribly interesting happen to her as a child, but she considers her life to be one big interesting tale... so don't tell her that! She loves growing up in the Weyr, and tends to look at newcomers with a bit of disdain. Like most weyrbrats, she's grown up with the assumption that she will stand for a clutch eventually.. and tends to take it for granted. Outside candidates are generally regarded with suspicion, as she sees them as intruders.
She has helped her father and his friends scrub their dragons often, so she has a fairly decent working knowledge of dragon-lore. Her father's brown, while getting a bit long in the tooth like her father, doesn't appear to dislike her company though she is mindful not to be disrespectful.
Description:
Strong for her age, Kelvari has worked hard to foster the impression that she is not just some weak girl-child. Though possessing a round cherubic face and big blue eyes, her features are often turned into a dismissive scowl or outright mischievous grin. She's the type to wear her emotions on her sleeve, and really couldn't care less. She likes to know where she stands with people, and wrongfully assumes everyone wants to know where they stand with her.
She has long light chestnut hair, which she keeps neatly braided and in two buns at either side of her face. Her clothing choice is negligible, as she wears what has been passed down and fits well enough to be modest. 'Taylor made' is a foreign word, as even her sandals are hand-me-downs.
Personality:
Blunt, bright, and bold; Kelvari thrives on social interaction and finds herself impossibly bored when no one is around. She doesn't make friends easily, given how bluntly she points out certain things, but she does know a lot of people in the Weyr and depends on those connections. Time will tell how she'll mature, but thus far none of the adults in her life seem worried, so she is mostly allowed to carry on as is. Those who have thick skin and manage to befriend her will find a valuable comrade. Kel loves with all of her heart, and she is very giving of this passion to her family and friends. Her father, especially, receives a rather large dose of this love when he makes time to go down to the mess hall and have dinner with Kelvari once a sevenday. Kel never fails to brighten his day with her cheeky comments, even if she refers to him as 'baldy' from time to time, and he'll occasionally go to bat for her against the working women of the Weyr when those comments come back to bite her. (Not that he has a whole lot of say, but he does what he can.)
When it comes to her duties, she is punctual and efficient. She'd definitely rather be out playing, but the idea of responsibility and duty have been firmly pounded into her young head by her father and the women who raised her (probably as a counter measure to her general cheekiness.) She has a healthy fear of the head honchos of the Weyr, but her father's influence has led to her being a bit spoiled when it comes to the other adults of the Weyr. Still, she's not afraid to speak her mind, and is often reprimanded for it to little affect.
Overall, she is a young passionate kid. Like anyone, she has her up and her down moments, but life hasn't tempered her enthusiasm and ground that raw emotion down, and nor will it. She loves life and is one of those bewildering 'morning people' who rise with the sun in order to go for a run before the chores start.
Other:
- She runs every morning and usually tries to take on as many 'boy' jobs as she can. Is on par with a boy her age when it comes to strength and stamina, so she has little trouble keeping up with the traditions at Trine.
- HATES lightning.
- Growing up in the Weyr means a lot of topics are not taboo for a young girl to know, and her dad's friends thought it was funny when she was young to teach her all sorts of dirty jokes. She hasn't forgotten them, and they regret teaching her now since she uses those same jokes to embarrass them in their retirement.
- Falls asleep like clockwork at around 9pm. It is pretty much impossible to keep her up past her bedtime. Has caused some serious problems for her in the past when she was assigned night duties.
-Acquired a rather interesting green firelizard named Chanel via a surprise name-day gift from her father when he came back from a trip to a local Gather.
