PB: No clue... but she's perty huh?
Name Reina
Pronunciation ray-nah
Age 20
Season Born in Summer
Gender Female
Sexuality Bisexual
Appearance Reina stands around five feet and five inches tall. Her body is lithe and slender, weighing in at about one hundred and thirty lbs. She has a healthy look about her but she isnt heavy in any way. Her body has a slight hourglass figure, so while she is small, she is not without feminine curves.
Her skin is just on the pale side of tan and smooth, unmarred but for a small burn below her shoulder that looks like the silhouette of a rose. Her eyes are a deep blue that dance between the colors of the deep oceans and cool rivers depending on the light she's in or the tilt of her heart shaped face. They're her most expressive feature, flashing with her moods. Her face is usually schooled into a delicate, smooth, and accepting mask with creamy skin, high cheekbones, and full lips.
Her hair is a riotous mass of waving curls that are the color of dragonfire, a coppery red that shines in the sunlight. She's more often than not seen wearing close fitting pants with white cotton or linen shirts with square necklines under a light leather corset and intricate designs. Her movements are almost always precise, each step seeming fluid and graceful.
Personality Reina is firey and to the point. She has no filter between her brain and her mouth except when she's around her son. Around him, she's always soft, sweet, and adoring. Other children receive much the same treatment from her. The only thing different is that she will eventually lose patience with other people's children.
She's a hard worker, and doesn't back down from most things once she's committed herself to it. She is fiercely protective of friends. If ever they're in any danger, she will not hesitate to throw herself in whole heartedly to the fray.
Some would describe her as eccentric, only really opening up to her friends. She's feminine yes, but with an outgoing tomboyish streak that most would not associate with a Lord Holder's daughter. She isn't the quiet soft spoken young 'lady' one would expect her to be.
She's friendly, but not overly so. She learned from a young age that it was better to put her emotions and ideals out there rather than bury them. With the type of person she is, people don't expect a sneakier more devious side, which she most definitely has.
She doesn't give up easily and tends to get her way through pure tenacity. She's always loved the dragons, especially garnets and the more devious greens. Their volatility and scheming ways always called to her, hence her being eager to agree to becoming a candidate when she was searched.

History
Hmm where to begin...? Reina was born the youngest daughter of the previous lord holder of solace hold. Her mother was not his wife, but a dancer in one of the caravans who stayed in solace after she found out she was pregnant . The healers were there during every step of Reinara's labor, but they were unable to save her and she died during childbirth. Reina's name is a keepsake from her mother. The only name the healer's had to give her was part of her own mother's.
Her father took her in and for a while she seemed to fit in the family as the daughter until, when she was 10, her father's wife had a child of their own. At that point her stepmother, who had been the only female influence in her life, may as well have abandoned her. There was no more fussing over Reina's appearance. There was no more insisting she go with them everywhere. All the woman's attention was on the new baby, so Reina found new places to play.
She spent most of her childhood either in lessons or running away from them to play with the kids and talk to merchants or sailors that came into port, growing more and more tomboyish as time wore on.
By the age of 15 she could rage well enough to make a sailor blush. It was a fact that annoyed her 'mother' and father to no end. She even learned some hand to hand skills from the merchants guards and sailors.
It was at the age of 17 that she was searched. Her new life was wild and exciting to her. The unknown lurked around every unexplored corner of the weyr. Very little did she know just how exciting her world was going to get.
About two weeks into her candidacy, while wandering around the weyr and trying to learn her way around , she had the bad luck to get caught in the middle of a flurry of frustrated flight lusting riders who had been rejected by the female dragon.
There was a bit of contention between two men, and she was all but carried off with the victor. Shock, embarrassment and hurt was what she carried from her first encounter. The next morning the rider wanted nothing to do with her. Her anger at herself for just taking what he had done to her without even trying to fight him off, overrode her pain and the trauma of the encounter. She had wandered step-by self-berating step back to her room where she stayed huddled in a corner, until her candidate room mates finally convinced her that she was going to be alright.
After a month and a few weeks of strange cravings, nausea in the mornings, and missed monthly's, her roommates convinced her to go to the healers. They dropped the bombshell on her with as much ease as you could have with that kind of news. She was pregnant.
During her pregnancy she'd been fussed over by a few female green riders and her roommates seemed to become more friendly and gave her no choice but to be come more of a 'girly girl' under their tutelage. They taught her how to to be soft, kind, and well... motherly, to prepare her for when the child was born.
Coming up with a mixture of her own name and that of the father (Sanosuke) who wanted nothing to do with the baby, she named her son Inasuke. When he came into the world, nothing else mattered and she knew she would never be the same. Now her candidacy was worked around the hectic schedule of a mother as she tried to juggle chores, childcare, and lessons.
She continued her life as a candidate through the storm, knowing her 'family had made it through. As the rebellion began she had no doubts that the cause of her father's death had been poisoning. There was discoloration around his lips consistent with poisoning. Soon after, her petty grasping cousin had assumed the lordship and allied solace with Noita's rebellion. Out of loyalty for her father, she hates the rebellion.
The single scariest event in her life was the thread fall. She huddled with the rest of the candidates, her son clutched desperately to her chest praying that it would be over soon. Her prayers weren't answered. It seemed like forever, the cries of soon betweening dragons filled her ears.
When it ended, she and her son were alive. She had sent praise to franath for her protection and mercy. That was until she saw how attentive her son became with her roommates' flits. After a few days of this worrying behavior, she took him to the healers, afraid something may be wrong. After many tests, the healers said nothing was wrong. Her son could actually hear flits.
Her happiness for him knew no bounds. He had friends in the flits even if he didnt have a lot of human friends. Those would come in time.
Since then she had done her chores and stood at hatchlings, been a mother and a candidate. She raised her son and waited for the time she'd have a dragon to raise as well.
She didn't have to wait very long. The NightSingers brought her own little bundle of draconic joy. A particularly attention deficit amethyst by the name of haleth.
The little amethyst has pretty much spent the last year of her life playing with Inasuke and learning to be the best dragon she can be. Much like how reina is with her son, she's adoring and indulging of her amethyst. Usually giving in or gently prodding her back to their appointed task.

Type dragon
Rank Amethyst
Size 17 ft
Color Codes(will be added in a bit)
Appearance Haleth is a delicate looking thing. Her wings are long and light. She has muscle that isn't overly evident. She is a slim dragon, not overfed by any means. Her Hyde ranges from a light purple to a fuschia in a pattern, that if she were a brown, would resemble the sunlight filtering through a forest canopy.
Personality
Haleth is a happy dragon. Slightly more intelligent than her color-mates have been known to be, most people wouldn't think so. This is due to one simple fact. She has the attention span of a gnat. She wants to be a hard worker and make Her's proud, but let one tiny random thing catch her eye and all good intentions are swept aside in what can only be described as an Oo shiny moment.If you stick with her she'll eventually go back to what she was supposed to do, but you have to be willing to take that side trip with her.
She's a very gentle dragon. She loves babies of all sorts, thoroughly enjoying the company of reina's son. She's a bit clutzy, so she always tries to be extremely careful about what she's doing. The only time she gets mad is when someone takes her oil bucket. She lives for that oil bucket...
Mind-voice (If applicable)
Oh mine? What about bringing anoth...I GOT IT! her voice is a sweet lower soprano voice. It's usually smooth but when she gets excited she can gain a squeak.
