Name: Eylyra
Rank: Blackrider
Gender: Female
Age: 30 Turns
Sexuality: Bisexual; Eylyra will sleep with whoever she needs to to get what she wants.
Physical description: Eylyra is tall for a woman, standing at 5’10. She is very lean and severe in appearance. Her limbs are stick-like with not much shape to them, and one has to look a long time indeed to even tell that there is a lean muscle to those twig-like arms and legs. She walks rather flat-footed, with large feet to match her tall frame. She does not have much in the way of curves, and the fact that she often dresses in baggy clothes hides what scant figure she does have. She has a ridiculously small waist—it looks like she is always wearing a corset. She is perhaps 120 lbs at the very most, and if you hug her, you can feel her bones beneath her skin. The skin is a light beige, but not as pale as one would think with the paleness of her hair.
She has straw-colored hair that does not have much luster or shine. It is simply a dull yellow, and it is very fine and straight. It falls wisp-like to her back, where it is easily stirred by a passing wind. It is surprisingly coarse to the touch, rather like the straw that its color hints at. She has bangs that are a bit too long, and she lets them fall into her brown eyes. The eyes are not as flat in color as her hair, but are lighter honey in the center, near the pupil, eventually darkening to a green-brown. She has yellow flecks in her eyes, too. Many people would say she has lovely eyes, if she didn’t hide them underneath her hair.
Eylyra’s face is diamond-shaped, meaning she has broad cheekbones, with a rather narrow forehead and chin. Her lips are unimpressive and thin, much like the rest of her body. They are pale in color, so much so that they almost blend in with the rest of her face. They are often pulled in a sardonic slant that does not suit the woman.
Personality description: Eylyra’s not a patient or a particularly kind woman. Very blunt and straightforward, she deals in difficult truths. She will tell things how they are, and looks down upon those who would cushion the truth with kindness. She has no tolerance for dithering about.
Eylyra is a mercurial woman, her moods as changeful as the weather in the rainforest Weyr where she has so recently settled. One moment, she can be almost sociable, and the next taciturn and harsh. No one has ever said that Eylyra is easy to get along with, or be around.
She is not a nurturing woman, or compassionate in any way. She tends to be cold and unfeeling, and doesn’t care what others think of her. She has a very tough skin.
She has not a romantic bone in her body, though she does occasionally get lusty. Often, she’ll survey a potential lover and randomly jump at him or her. She is not often refused, once she has made her bold move. Though not one to commit to any sort of relationship, she is an exuberant lover, when the mood strikes her. When she is satiated, she will toss aside her taken lover dismissively, as she would the bones of a piece of wherry meat.
Eylyra is rather sarcastic, sardonic, and very sharp and keenly observant. Therefore, if one makes an enemy of her, she can be vicious and deadly. She easily spots a person’s weaknesses and notes them, should she need to use them to her advantage. She is not above such things as blackmail and opportunism.
She also will sleep around to get her way. Some say that is how she became Wingleader at High Reaches. There are dark rumors of a rather passionate encounter with the Weyrleader, whom supposedly never got over the Blackrider, and found himself drawn again and again to her weyr as if enchanted by some black magic that he found there.
History: Eylyra was born to a Junior Weyrwoman at High Reaches, fostered to the lower caverns immediately. Her father was either the Bronzerider L’ryan or the Brownrider lover that her mother had taken time and time again by the name of E’lan. Unsure, the woman named her child after both. A temperamental and difficult child, Eylyra never was afforded much affection by her foster mother, a fact that the girl didn’t seem to mind. Even then, she did not long for love in the way that most others did. She was to be the eldest of her mother’s get, eventually gaining two half brothers, Lyran and Erlan.
The two were much too merry for her liking, and so she didn’t spend much time with them. She helped about the lower caverns at the Weyr, cleaning and doing drudge duties there. When she was 13, she Impressed a fire-lizard, whom she named Cork, and who followed her around constantly to do her bidding. Not even a full Turn later, she found herself on the Hatching Sands, and she Impressed the Black Lyneerth there. Weyrlinghood was destined to be an interesting time for the girl, as it coincided with her sexual awakening.
She slept her way around the Weyrling barracks, with women and men alike, eventually earning a scolding from the Weyrling Master, as Lyneerth was not yet sexually mature, and technically, a Weyrling shouldn’t have relationships for focusing so much on her dragonet.
Eylyra didn’t touch any more Weyrlings after that. Anyway, she had her sights set higher. In another few months, she and Lyneerth graduated from Weyrlinghood, and the Black Rose for her Maiden Flight. Brown Obediaheth Caught Lyneerth, and Eylyra Weyrmated with K’min his rider. The next decades would see Eylyra jumping from Weyrmate to Weyrmate, from lover to lover, until she ended up seducing the Weyrleader himself.
After nursing a wound he had sustained in Threadfall, she lured him back to her weyr and the two coupled. The next day, Eylyra was made Wingleader, as long as she kept her silence on the Bronzerider’s ‘mistake’. The Weyrleader would repeat this mistake at least a dozen more times over the next Turns, until he found reason to banish her and Lyneerth to the new Xian Weyr with the excuse that he was providing one of their finest riders to the new jungle Weyr. Everyone knew, though, that he simply could not resist her, and needed her to be far away in order to be faithful to his Weyrmate.
Weyrmate: None.
Pets: Brown Cork
Dragon's Name: Lyneerth
Dragon's Color: Black
Dragon's Physical Description: Lyneerth is as dark as night, the smooth color inky and solid throughout her hide. She is unmarred by Threadscores, and is tall for a Black. She has a long neck and wings, and rather stubby appendages. Lyneerth has a long, almost runner-like snout, and a whip-like tail that lashes about when she is irritable. Her bejeweled eyes are almost always yellow with irritation.
Dragon's Personality Description: Lyneerth is rather lazy, disliking work and will do just about anything to get out of it. She is a talented fighter naturally, and very quick. She doesn’t do much to cultivate the skill. She is rather easily moved to irritation, and snaps at anyone who gets on her nerves. She is almost violent in her broodiness come mating or clutching time, and no one likes to be around her then. She is not opportunistic like her rider. Lyneerth prefers to loll about the weyr ledge, and does not socialize openly with other dragons. She prefers to keep her own council, and barely tolerates Elyrya’s Brown fire-lizard, Cork, often threatening to eat him.
