Name: Lynd
Age: 20
Gender: Femle
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Craft/Rank: Wherhandler Apprentice
History: Lynd has always been interested more in what below the earth then whats on the surface, this is likely because her father was a miner and as a youth forever regaled her with tales of things he had seen and caves he had explored while searching for new mine sites. Despite her mothers consternation (she always wanted Lynd to take up a more feminine role in life) Lynd was pretty sure that she would follow in her fathers footsteps and take up a career in Minecraft. Which is precisely which she started studying as soon as she was old enough.

Life seemed pretty well set for Lynd and she was happy in her chosen path until quite suddenly another opportunity presented itself. During a trip to one of the major holds with her father at around the age of 18 Lynd was searched and given the opportunity to go to Benden Weyr and stand for a dragon. It was a hard decision to for Lynd to make but considering this just another opportunity she decided to give it try.

Once on the sands however the girl couldn't help but feel like she'd make a terrible mistake - she loved the Weyr and the Weyrfolk..but mining was in her heart and dragons while lovely creatures just weren't. Of course there was another option...an option she hadn't really thought about until the prospect of having a life partner like a dragon had come up, an option that could combine both mining and a partner - Whers!...and so Lynd stayed at the Weyr and took up Wherhandling to supplement her miner studies.

Description: Lynd is not exactly what most people think about when they think about Miners..or Wherhandlers for that manner. She's fairly slim and a bit on the tall side. Don't let her looks fool you however years of working in the mines as she studied minecraft and now working as a Wherhandler Apprentice have given her a wiry strength. Her hair is a dusty sort of brown that typically tied back to keep her out of her face and her eyes a grey-blue, although these aren't typical colors people associate with 'pretty' her soft features and slim build contribute to an overall attractive appearance.

Personality: Lynd is devoted to her craft, sometimes devoted to the point of obsession, once she has a goal in mind she'll rarely give up on it until she gets there. While this is sometimes a good thing it can also lead to trouble once in a while as her single minded outlook causes her to miss an alternate path which might have made things a bit easier in the long run. There are of course some instances where her obsessions are quite good - such as safety, having been in the mines before Lynd is more then a little bit aware of how important safety is - not only for herself but for everyone in the mine with her - and she can't stand to see someone shirking their duties in the safety department, in fact that's the one thing absolutely sure to get her temper up and she certainly won't hesitate to point out the errors of said person's ways.

Generally she's fairly good tempered, as long as everyone is doing their jobs and following the rules she doesn't see to much to get worked up over however once angered she tends to carry grudges for quite a long time - she rarely forgets a slight or mistake and the person who has angered her might have a good bit of work ahead of them if they want to get back on her good side.

Outside of work however she's not that hard to get along with and generally likes to have a good time, taking part in social gatherings and events happily enough although she's typically more of a listener then a talker she tends to get excited and go on long winded explanations whenever sometimes involving Minecraft comes up, and of course she's fond of the whers praising their good traits openly and often just as dragonriders praise the traits of theirs.
