Allaeia – Healer, Adoptive Mother
Physical Appearance: (At least one paragraph)
Her brown hair falls in a slight curl around her, long, falling to about mid-back length. The three braids that start near her face move back over the brown locks that are left loose and join together into one braid that is then fastened to fall directly down the center of her back and neck. It would likely be much curlier if its weight were less. It is thick, but not overly thick. There are some shorter hairs that curl into tight ringlets at the back of her neck and around her ears. Her hair complements well the worm caramel toned tan of her skin that holds only the slightest sprinkle of freckles.
Her face is heart shaped, her chin sharp. She has large lips that are a healthy pink color. Her nose is somewhat longer than most. Her eyes are a large and round and appear very trusting. They are brown and full of depth. She is slender and short, standing about only about 5’2”. Her figure is rather full and she seems to take pride in this fact in the way she moves at times. Her smile comes in many different forms for many different occasions. Slow and cunning, fast and full of amusement, seductive and deadly.
Her hands are used to the work of a Healer. Her fingers are quick and nimble. Her hands are rather soft yet. She thinks little of this fact, but it is a fact nonetheless. She is most typically found wearing practical clothing, though it should be no surprise to anyone that she enjoys wearing dresses and the feeling of beauty she gets from such.
Her face shows emotion very easily. They play across it much like a symphony.
Personality: (At least one paragraph; preferably more)
“Back off, I'll take you on
Headstrong to take on anyone
I know that you are wrong
Headstrong, we're headstrong” – Headstrong by Trapt
Banalii is headstrong, brash and forward. She is blunt, honest, caring, protective, and unapologetic if the truth were to hurt.
If it were ever for the good of another person, Banalii would take on the world in a heartbeat. She is hard to dissuade and rank means almost nothing to her when she has lost her temper. She is constantly seeking justice, truth and honesty from the world, even when it seems most unlikely that it will be achieved.
She is caring. Banalii has a love for everyone, despite what may be apparent with her blunt, honest nature. She is also quite protective and rather idealistic, believing that the truth should always come first. But for all that talk about truth, she is a bit hypocritical herself.
She is brash. For a sweet looking girl, she doesn’t hesitate to jump into something without so much as a thought, especially when her instincts to protect others kick in. Her desire is to heal those in trouble when it may be necessarily before it is to think of her own safety.
She never shies away from saying what is on her mind and won’t apologize if her blunt honesty should upset or hurt someone. She, again, is a bit of a hypocrite in this as she can get upset over the same thing and may claim that it is not something that should upset a person.
Energetic. Banalii is energetic, playful, and generally playful, having few inhibitions with talking to people. Making friends is easy for her. Keeping them is far more difficult for her because of her blunt nature and the ease with which she may find herself coming across as rude.
She sees little problems with flirting and may actually find it quite fun. Unless in a serious situation or, for some other reason, unwise. Even if at times she may not come across as particularly cunning, she can be when she takes the time to slow down and think about or plan what she is going to do, which only happens every so often when she may come up with some devious plan to surprise someone. But that really isn’t much of an activity sharpening such tools at times. However, she is highly competitive and will often plot her way to winning, which is a far more blatant use of her talents in cunning.
She is very intelligent, which is evidenced in her studies as well as in the way she most often speaks, especially when arguing or debating. Her wit is quick and her tongue is sharp.
History: (At least one paragraph)
“We were the ones who weren't afraid
We were the broken hearted
We were the scars that wouldn't fade away
How did we let go
how did we forget that we don't have to hide
We won't believe the lies again
We won't be paralyzed” – Who We Are by Red
Banalii was born nineteen turns in the past. She was born to a young woman of Torel Hold who died in child birth. Her father never claimed her no was he ever known. She was a no one. She had nothing… But she was lucky enough to be taken in by a Healer. And that is where her story really began.
Banalii’s supposed parents long kept her lineage and past a secret from her, hiding away the facts. But what reason did they have to be forthcoming about it? They loved her. She was their daughter. It was not a fact that mattered to them, but in time, all things become clear.
When she was still quite young, one of her older siblings, in jealousy told her, “Why don’t you go find your mom and dad and stop stealing mine!” Of course, her reaction was the inability to understand what had just been said. The fight turned into something rather violent, scratching both girls up.
It was a while after this that Banalii started to wonder. The more incidents that occurred with her siblings, the more she wondered and finally questioned. At first, she didn’t know what to do with the information. It was useless and would prove useless forevermore. But, the incidence and the happenings around it may have been an influence in who she became. And… the idea of her unknown father and her dead mother haunted her for many Turns.
When she was old enough and capable enough, she entered the Healer Hall to be trained. And trained she was. At first, she struggled and did poorly in classes, but she was stubborn. She wanted to be good at this. She wanted to help people. She wanted to take away their hurts.
After a time, she became very good at her lessons. She worked hard. Her headstrong nature did, indeed, lend itself well to the pursuit of a goal.
When she was but 18-Turns-old, her hard work was rewarded as she walked the tables to become a Journeywoman Healer. She was not searched as young as some. But even if she had back then, she would likely have refused. However, not long ago, in fact only a few sevendays, a SearchRider happened to come to Torel Hold where she was at the time and… she was searched to the Weyr
Pets
Name: Il
Species: Firelizard
Gender: Female
Age: 0
Color: Green
Physical Appearance:
Big, bulky green with short, stumpy wings, clumsy flier. Silvery-green hide with a yellow-green belly and dark wings.
Personality:
Extremely bad-tempered, flies into a rage far too easily. Difficult to get along with and very aggressive during flights.
Dragon
Name: Taffyth
Color: Green
Size: 26' at full growth.
Age: 0
Clutch Parents: Green Marquitth/unnamed bronze
Physical Appearance: Taffyth is a delicate, slender green with a long body and equally slender wings. She is a solid tuqoise green in color, with a few random squiggles of a darker green throughout.
Personality: Taffyth is headstrong, brash and forward. When this green thinks something needs done, she's the first to either try to do it herself or to organize others to do it for her. She's a clever and resourceful dragon and can figure things faster than most, even if she's not one of Pern's intellectual heavyweights.
She's a bright, energetic personality and loves to chatter about her surroundings and to other people or dragons who happen to be nearby. She likes to help out those she loves any way she can, and may have to be gently discouraged if that help isn't actually needed or wanted.
Taffyth can be a bit of a brat, if a well-intentioned one. She doesn't like being told 'no' or feeling like someone -especially Banalii- isn't listening to her, and may indulge in dramatics to fix either situation. If she cares about the person in question, she will accept such actions at length, if not without a little sulking.

Why Banalii was chosen for her: Taffyth needs a strong-willed woman for a rider, someone who cares about others but is willing to step on a few toes if necessary.
