[[i'm trading Moro out for my eventual magma pair, so Moro will go up for adoption.]]
Weyr: Crystal Cavern
Name: Moro
Gender female
Sexuality: bi-curious leaning toward bi
Rank: Jrwm Healer/candidate
Age: 19 [almost 20]
Appearance:
Moro is a woman of mostly average build, stocky and trim, a bit on the short side. Her body type tends to soften if left indolent, so Moro works to keep herself fit and healthy; as much as an example to her patients as to make sure she's able to deal with whatever life decides to throw her way.
Her hair is slightly thick and coarse, quite straight; it is cropped short and sticks out in spiky clumps every which way. It is a simple black color, no noticable variation in hue and little sheen. It frames a square, strong-jawed face that suits her stern manner very well.
Moro's eyes are a gray-green hue: dusky malachite overlaid with chalky gray. Flecks of the same malachite green speckle her irises for a splash of color. Her eyes have an oddly piercing quality at times, when she fixes her gimlet glare on intractable patients.
Personality:
Moro can be described as complex.
The side of her everyone sees is a gruff, no-nonsense woman who does not suffer fools easily. She is impatient sometimes, especially with those who are slower to pick up new concepts, making her a lack-luster teacher. Despite her sometimes thin patience, she is relatively hard to goad into a temper, and it is a smoldering anger, slow-burning and easier to control. She can be a bit standoffish and antisocial, especially around relative strangers. Her trust and regard are hard to earn.
However, once her affection is won, she proves herself to be an undyingly loyal friend. Her walls really only go down when she is working with patients, especially young ones, besides when she is around the few to whom she is close. Gentle and kind, with a strong maternal streak, Moro's personality suits her vocalion of Healer perfectly.
History:
Moro was born in old Fort; a halfblood, by one of the Lord's younger sons in a tryst with a common holder girl. She was went to the Harper Hall to learn, since she showed herself to be a quick learner, intelligent and clever. She didn't go on to become an apprentice harper, though -- she had little skill in music although she enjoyed it, and the teaching and mediating jobs of a harper were ill-suited to her personality. During this time, she developed an interest in Healing, and followed the resident Healer everywhere to observe his work. The Healer saw promise in the girl, so he sent her to the Healer Hall to become an apprentice there.
Moro absorbed all the information at Healer Hall like a dry sponge, walking the tables at the top of her apprentice class. As a journeywoman she was sent to Crystal Cavern Weyr, since she had shown an aptitude in treating fire lizards and even the Hold and Hall watch-whers, and learned from the Weyr's Healer how to treat draconic injuries and ills. The old Weyr Healer was aging and would soon retire, so Moro began to take on more and more of old A'der's work.
Almost as soon as she arrived, one of the spring Search dragons started showing an unusual amount of interest in the young Healer. The spring even went so far as to mind-speak her, getting right to the point: Young one, you would make a wonderful rider. We need candidates, and a permanent Healer now that A'der is reaching his end.[/color]
Her curiosity piqued by this new development -- curiosity and no little pleasure -- she sent word back to Healer Hall. The MasterHealer agreed, and Moro was then installed as Crystal Cavern's resident Healer and a candidate. While she waits for a queen to Rise and lay a clutch of eggs, Moro is working on getting her Mastery.
Father: Tarlen
Mother: Civa
Siblings: brother Jeral, sisters Anale and Marli
Pets: bronze flit Eclata; emerald flit Anadrex
Eclata is a laid back bronze, more like a brown in temperament. His hide is a light bronze, closer to a caramel-tan than red-brown, though he has more coppery brindling over his back and wings.
Anadrex is high-strung, very energetic. He has to be doing something or he goes crazy. Drex seems the polar opposite of his bronze brother. His coloration is fairly typical for an emerald; intense darkish green, with slightly lighter, glossy scales.
Moro is allowed her flits because she got them before she became a candidate, and because both flits are adults, well-trained, and help her with Healing by fetching things and such.
Color preference and why: spring -- a spring's nurturing tendency suits her
Color not wanted and why: magma or ruby -- a magma's sadism or a ruby's vanity would rub her entirely the wrong way; she dislikes vanity and she's a Healer, for crying out loud!
