Character Name: Adine (usually just uses Adi)Age: 22
Gender: Female
Sexual Orientation: Bisexual
Craft/Rank: Courier
History:
Adine is a pretty typical weyrbrat, with the typical upbringing. Her mother was an older Candidate who, after ruining her last chance to Impress by getting pregnant, aged out and went home. Adi's been told about her, but has never met her, and doesn't know who her father is - and doesn't really care, in regards to either. The Weyrfolk are her family and friends, and she's plenty happy with that.
As a Candidate, Adi's favorite chores were anything that put her outside, or in the kitchen (mm, sweets!)...although catching tunnelsnakes was sort of fun, too. She can make just about anything fun, as long as it's not something gross. When she has free time, she spends most of it outside, swimming, picking flowers, getting dirty, and generally enjoying the outdoors. If she can, she'll find someone to drag along with her; after all, anything fun is twice as fun with company! Unless she's sleeping, or really enveloped in a particular lesson, it's rare to find her being completely still. She has things to do, discoveries to make, and people to meet!
Description:
She stands about 5'6," with hazel eyes and straight, dark brown hair cut to the middle of her back. Her complexion is on the fair side of average, but nothing exceptional. Adine is a pretty girl, decently curvy, a little heavier in the hip than in the bust. When not in her riding leathers, she wears as little clothing as is practical - Trine is hot! (Also, freedom~)
Personality:
Happy~! Adine's cheerfulness seems to know no bounds; she has a smile for everyone, and can carry on a conversation with even the quietest of people (so what if she has to do all the talking? she can!). She starts out liking someone from the moment she meets them, and it takes quite a bit of doing to change that opinion. They have to be downright, openly mean, and even then, they'll get the benefit of the doubt and a few more opportunities. It takes several kicks for Adi to learn that a certain someone should be avoided.
Either way, an unkind word is the easiest and quickest way to wipe the smile off of Adine's face - if it's harsh enough, she'll burst into tears and run away in search of a hug. In that way, and in general demeanor, her personality can be rather childlike: carefree, naive, and innocent-seeming. She loves being happy, and thinks everyone else should be happy, too. If they're having trouble finding a reason to smile, she'll persist until she finds a way to make them smile, whether it takes a hug or something more creative. Oh, and personal space? Adi has no concept of it. She'll sidle right on up to anyone and everyone without a thought, and it never ceases to surprise her when they're less than receptive to her intrusion.
Though it's extremely rare for her to do it in a malicious way, Adine is quite the gossip. Unless someone's careful to emphasize that they're telling her something in the strictest confidence (a promise is a promise!), anything interesting can and will be repeated...and every now and then, her mouth might get ahead of her mind, causing her to slip with something that should be a secret.
Outside of talking - and playing! - Adi has an intense interest in plants. If she had ever aged out, she might have pursued Farmcraft.
