Weyr: Talune Weyr
Name: Hailey
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Rank: Candidate
Age: 21
Appearance: Black hair, clear blue eyes, and standing at 5'8". Her hair reaches to the middle of her back and is completely straight, not even the hint of a wave or curl. She generally keeps it up off her neck in a runner's tail or braid. Her clear blue eyes are always taking things in and hardly miss anything that happens around her, whether she has been there many times or not. She has filled out somewhat. She has curves in all the right places, and her chest area is…. moderate. Not eye catching but enough to make a man still look. She has a nice simple chin that moves up to high cheekbones. She has thin wide lips and thin eyebrows. She wears dark colors that go well with her olive complexion. She doesn’t dress up that much except for special occasions. She has a simple dark green dress that she keeps in her clothes press until she wears it. She prefers to wear tunics and trousers. She has a simple ring of silver that she wears constantly that is the only thing she has of her father. He’d bought it for her on her eleventh birthing day.
Personality: Confident, Stubborn, tomboyish, and defiant. Hailey is confidant in her abilities as a person and will not listen to anyone that bullies her. She is her own person and she knows it. She is polite and considerate, not one that resorts to bullying another person into doing something. She’ll ask. If the person says ‘no’, then she’ll leave it at that. She is isn’t afraid to get dirty and isn’t afraid to wrestle around either. She simply loves the challenge of getting physical to try and best her opponent, male or female.
She is stubborn when it comes to something she has set her mind to. And nothing will change her mind. She loves children and babies of any species. She hopes to have a child or two when she’s older but she has the patience to wait and she uses it when dealing with children. She had been told by one or two older women that she would make a wonderful mother should she have any children of her own and takes those words to heart. She hopes to impress and is wanting to try for a fire lizard, but she hasn’t been lucky with either yet.
Hailey grew up with brothers who rough-housed and wrestled, and like to pretend to be Dragonriders as young boys. Hailey would join them once she was old enough and she hasn’t seemed to grasp the concept of being a ‘Lady’. Something that her mother had tried to teach her about at the earliest opportunity, but Hailey wouldn’t listen. She loved wrestling with her brothers and getting dirty. Getting dirty in her mind was a badge of honor. To her and her brothers, anyway, it meant that you weren’t afraid to get into the thick of any situation and do your hardest.
Hailey is defiant to the very last. She did her chores, but she usually put them off to the very last moment, or convinced one or all of her brothers to do her chores for her with promises. She loves her mother dearly but she rebels against her when she tried to get Hailey to be a lady. ‘A lady never wrestles’, ‘a lady never…’ Blah, blah, blah… Is all that Hailey thinks. She would rather be out and seeing things and having fun doing it. When her mother tried to lecture her, Hailey would tune her out and thing of some payback she usually owed her brothers for some mischief or trouble they usually got her into. She doesn’t follow directions or rules, unless it’ll benefit her in some small way.
History: Hailey's mother is an Igen cousin of the Nerat bloodline, though now the family resides at Talune Hold. As such, Harlia was accustomed to a certain luxury of life. Tarleyn was a member of the Hold guard, a particularly handsome young man and Harlia fell in love with him and they were hand fasted a few months later. Despite the fact that Tarleyn could not provide the elegance that Harlia was accustomed to, they were happy. Their first child was a girl named Tarlia, followed three years later by Hailey. The couple was supremely happy as Tarleyn received a promotion in the guard, taking command of ten men and Harlia found she was pregnant with her third child. They celebrated with a picnic beside a tranquil stream and Tarlia played by the water while 14 month old Hailey toddled about her parents. While Tarleyn was feeding Hailey, Harlia was keeping a sharp eye on Tarlia. She turned her attention to her husband and Hailey just for a moment, but it was enough and Tarlia fell in the stream and drowned.
Harlia was distraught at the death of her eldest child and refused to eat for a sevenday. It took the aggressive attention of a healer to preserve her life and that of her unborn child. Tarleyn took on the care of Hailey and had taken her with him on patrols in a backpack. When Harlia was recovered, she took back the care of the little girl, cosseting her and keeping her so close that no harm would ever come to her. As young as she was when Tarlia died, Hailey had no memory of her sister and since the girl was never mentioned, she believed herself to be the eldest of five. As Hailey grew, she became the depended helper of her mother in tending the younger children. As a child, she never understood her mother's paranoid restrictions and often chaffed under the tight hold. Her only respite was in the Harper classes that all youngsters attended.
When Hailey was twelve turns old, a third girl was born to Harlia, the spitting image of Tarlia. The girl was given the name of Arley and Harlia felt her to be a second chance and focused all her attention on her. Hailey felt acute relief as her mother's constant eyes were turned elsewhere. Tarleyn felt relief as well and began taking his five eldest children with him to the main hold where they could play with other children. When not on patrols, Tarleyn would let Hailey and Leynar, the eldest boy, accompany him as he moved about the hold on his various duties.
Hailey's favorite part of the hold was the Tailor's and when she could, she spent time there, watching the beautiful colors of cloth worked into dresses, tunics and other garments. She spent so much time there that she became something of an unofficial apprentice, holding pins and fetching extra thread and needles. She liked to study the designs for the dresses and fantasize about wearing such garments one day. When she was 13, death struck the family again. This time it was her father who died. Tarleyn was wounded in a skirmish with some renegades that had been reported as harassing and attacking wagons in the area. He was brought back to the hold and treated by healers, but the wound became infected and despite all efforts, died a sevenday later.
Harlia was still completely wrapped up in Arley and almost unaware of the rest of the family. News of Tarleyn's death brought little reaction other than a faint lassitude when she was not tending to Arley's every desire. Hailey was almost exclusively the caretaker of the household, making dinner for her younger brothers and herself while Harlia tended only to Arley and herself. Over the next few turns, Hailey tended to her brothers and herself. She arranged for Leynar to join the guard, as he had always wanted to do, and she got Laralian apprenticed to the hold smith. She herself did washing and mending for neighbors to keep the family solvent.
She was Searched by Talune riders shortly after her brother Leynar’s 17th birthing day, she was 19. She was reluctant to leave, as Arrail and Arlian still needed looking after. Fortunately, Leynar promised to keep an eye on his younger brothers so Hailey could go to the Weyr. Her mother was consulted, but Harlia's only concern was Arley, who was nearing the age at which Tarlia had died. Hailey went to Talune Weyr and stood for the hatching of Linnelyth’s first clutch. Hailey was conflicted, half excited at the idea of impressing a dragonet and half guilty for abandoning her mother and brothers. Hailey received her first look at the sire and dam of the clutch she was standing for. She was in awestruck wonder. The hatching took nearly a full hour and 3/4 of the way through it still seemed that she would not impress. And at the end of the Hatching, Hailey was left standing. She made friends with a few of the other female Candidates and a few male Candidates. She stood for Linnelyth’s second clutch’s Hatching and was left standing for a second time. She hopes that the third clutch will hold her life mate.

Lastly, the second is about her history, and it's nothing serious. Just that she'd have stood for two hatchings now because Linnelyth has sired two clutches and, with that logic, she'd be 21. -Nods- Other than that, beautiful profile. ^^
