Name: Yevalee
Age: 17
Sex: non-binary
Sexual Orientation: bi
Craft: Free Diver /Fisher craft
Rank:Journeyman
Location: Black Sand Hold, to Western Weyr as a candidate after search


Physical Description: Yevalee is pretty, with an expanse of silky and warm shaded strawberry blond hair that reaches mid back. They have fair skin with a dusting of freckles across nose, shoulders and cheeks. Their eyebrows are slender and winged, and eyes bright lively hazel in color and bright in good cheer. Their lips are soft and rather plush. In all they are slender and tall with some width in the shoulder, and do love to dress up and seek out the brightest but complementing clothing they can afford.

Personality: Yevalee is not terribly motivate to go above and beyond, if they are good at something, some effort might be extended to continue it, as long as they don't hit a wall. If they are bad at something, well, it depends if they need to know how to do it at all. If needed, they will certainly work at it till they are passable. They do prefer to coast on what they are good at since it requires the minimal amount of work. In all, they do what is expected, mostly not going out of the way to do more.

They are friendly, composed, and certainly like attention and conversation. They love to dance, love to be including, and just in general like to be around people. Though they are a touch vain, they are lovely, they know it. They collect and hoard gossip and news and are perhaps a tad manipulative. If they can find a way to get something to work to their advantage, Yevalee will take it.

Yevalee does not want to be the responsible one, could they do it? Well yes, logically they can see ways to get it done, but is just so much pressure and well work. They just don't want to be worrying about it, or well deal with the stress, either.

Positive Trait List Outgoing, Bright, Composed
Negative Trait List Vain, unmotivated, dislike for responsibility

History: Yevalee is the fifth child to a fisherman couple in Black Sand Hold, they were expecting another daughter, and got a son and just kept with the name they picked out already. Yevalee helped sort the bounty of the sea when young, the corals, the shells, mother pearl, pearls, sea silk, and sponges and when older joined his sister and mother in diving, using rocks as weights to sink fast and bringing up baskets of shells, coral,silk silk or sponges from the depths. They lived by the bounty of the sea and all it had to offer.

Living in Black Sand Hold is pretty great, they live well enough from the bounty of the sea and the occasional pearl. Sure Black Sands Hold takes their cut from the bounty that they pull out of the sea but they live decently middle classish. Till about 14 when Yevalee started questioning his gender and slowly started to request everyone to either use their name, or them, they, theirs okay. Just like no? They aren't really male and they aren't really female and they are just rather okay with this. This is good... even if some people are ******** dicks about it.

Yevalee does not approve of thread, because it makes their job more difficult even if it does provide some security that they are surrounded by water. Some.... Why couldn't it just say away?

Other: Yeva just really pretty - and that pic def later in life

Just a minor thing...

Does Yevalee have an actual craft? Free Diver isn't really an official craft. You can find our craft listing here. While it makes sense it probably falls under either Dolphincraft or Fishcraft, Pern still requires its people to make a living. I can also see it being something taught by those who are Holdless or traders on the islands. So you definitely can keep them a free diver, but was just curious if they had officially trained in a craft or under a craftsman, or if this was just something they did purely for marks.

While Black Sands Hold is a bit of a tourist spot, they do probably take some form of cut from what the family is diving up. If they're allowing the family to live on their land and in their Hold and fish on their beaches, then they are going to require something in return.

Thankfully, it's not like Nabol where folks are exploited, but unless they're Holdless and just travel the islands and get run off once found, or have some sort of agreement going on, the Holds are usually communal based.

I think once that gets clarified they'll be good!
