There is a pixyish quality to the girl's looks, from her slender, well muscled frame, to the steel-blue of her eyes, to the curve of her smile. Gone is the the long thick mass of hair. Now the choppy ash brown hair hangs just past her chin. Large eyes and a full mouth add a soft feminine quality to the curve of her chin and jaw. Thick expressive brows and a delicate nose complete that face filled with youthful mischief. %r Her clothes are surprisingly plain, a loose fitting tunic in a pale green, warm woolen breeches and sturdy boots. It's hard to tell her from a boy any more at first glance, save for the few feminine curves she possesses and her clear alto voice. Her arms are scarred some from burns others look like they have been earned in fights. A good belt knife hangs at her hip and the Knot of a Candidate is affixed to her shoulder, and below it the Knot of a Senior apprentice blacksmith. Nathalia is 18 Turns old&lt;br /&gt;

= History =&lt;br /&gt;
	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
Some people's lives begin with a choice.  In Nathalia's case it was her father Thanael's choice to give up his opportunity for advancement to remain stationed at Igen Weyr. He had fallen hard for Green Rider Nadaea, and they had decided to try and make the relationship work long term, despite the obvious struggles that might arise. Issues did arise, and the day they decided to part ways Nadaea discovered that despite her measures she was with child. Wanting nothing to do with it, Thanael stayed in Igen until his daughter was born. &lt;br /&gt;
	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
==Early Childhood==&lt;br /&gt;
	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
Thanael and Nathalia moved to the Smith Craft Hall as soon as Nat was old enough to safely travel.  Growing up without her mother did effect Nat deeply, and while it was true most riders were forced by necessity to hand over the duties of raising their progeny, Nadaea never so much as even looked at her daughter.  Her father did his best to make up for it by doting on Nathalia and taking her with him everywhere he possibly could.  Nat was never an extremely prissy child, she liked dresses and ribbons but also had no qualms about chasing crawlers or hunting tunnel snakes. A scrappy little thing, she took to fighting a little too well for her own good, though she didn't usually start them.&lt;br /&gt;
	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
Nat spent most of her time in her father's modest workroom, watching as he would weigh out compounds and check the strengths of various stocks of ore. Her favorite thing was watching him work the forge, the hot sooty smells of the fires filling her with a warm sense of comfort. While others may have been surprised that the girl child had decided to follow in her father's footsteps and go into Smiting proper, it was a natural choice for Nathalia.&lt;br /&gt;
	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
==Apprenticeship==&lt;br /&gt;
	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
At the age of twelve, Nathalia began her apprenticeship, and it would be a long and tedious road.  While the current Master of the hall was in fact a woman, many of the other Apprentices seemed to be all to happy to forget this fact when it came to 'judging ability.&amp;quot;  Nat had to work hard, and was often frustrated at the lack of respect she received from her peers.  Any advancements she made were tallied under either someone feeling sorry for her, being a teachers pet, or even something more crass. &lt;br /&gt;
	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
Needless to say that in part because of the kinds of boys her craft attracts, and in part because of her pride, fighting became a routine in her world.  Usually it was some hold bred boy who was angry and embarrassed at being showed up, or just generally a male with a chip on their shoulder, Nat discovered she liked to drink when she had to nurse a particularly nasty set of bruises. She rarely ever lost, and the few times she was close someone would usually intervene. It had started to become a real problem by the time she made senior apprentice. While the Master of the Hall could certainly sympathize, something drastic needed to be done.&lt;br /&gt;

Some people's lives begin with a choice.  In Nathalia's case it was her father Thanael's choice to give up his opportunity for advancement to remain stationed at Igen Weyr. He had fallen hard for Green Rider Nadaea, and they had decided to try and make the relationship work long term, despite the obvious struggles that might arise. Issues did arise, and the day they decided to part ways Nadaea discovered that despite her measures she was with child. Wanting nothing to do with it, Thanael stayed in Igen until his daughter was born. &lt;br /&gt;

	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
Thanael and Nathalia moved to the Smith Craft Hall as soon as Nat was old enough to safely travel.  Growing up without her mother did effect Nat deeply, and while it was true most riders were forced by necessity to hand over the duties of raising their progeny, Nadaea never so much as even looked at her daughter.  Her father did his best to make up for it by doting on Nathalia and taking her with him everywhere he possibly could.  Nat was never an extremely prissy child, she liked dresses and ribbons but also had no qualms about chasing crawlers or hunting tunnel snakes. A scrappy little thing, she took to fighting a little too well for her own good, though she didn't usually start them.&lt;br /&gt;
	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
Nat spent most of her time in her father's modest workroom, watching as he would weigh out compounds and check the strengths of various stocks of ore. Her favorite thing was watching him work the forge, the hot sooty smells of the fires filling her with a warm sense of comfort. While others may have been surprised that the girl child had decided to follow in her father's footsteps and go into Smiting proper, it was a natural choice for Nathalia.&lt;br /&gt;

At the age of twelve, Nathalia began her apprenticeship, and it would be a long and tedious road.  While the current Master of the hall was in fact a woman, many of the other Apprentices seemed to be all to happy to forget this fact when it came to 'judging ability.&amp;quot;  Nat had to work hard, and was often frustrated at the lack of respect she received from her peers.  Any advancements she made were tallied under either someone feeling sorry for her, being a teachers pet, or even something more crass. &lt;br /&gt;

	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
Needless to say that in part because of the kinds of boys her craft attracts, and in part because of her pride, fighting became a routine in her world.  Usually it was some hold bred boy who was angry and embarrassed at being showed up, or just generally a male with a chip on their shoulder, Nat discovered she liked to drink when she had to nurse a particularly nasty set of bruises. She rarely ever lost, and the few times she was close someone would usually intervene. It had started to become a real problem by the time she made senior apprentice. While the Master of the Hall could certainly sympathize, something drastic needed to be done.&lt;br /&gt;

There is a pixyish quality to the girl's looks, from her slender, well muscled frame, to the steel-blue of her eyes, to the curve of her smile. Gone is the the long thick mass of hair. Now the choppy ash brown hair hangs just past her chin. Large eyes and a full mouth add a soft feminine quality to the curve of her chin and jaw. Thick expressive brows and a delicate nose complete that face filled with youthful mischief. %r Her clothes are surprisingly plain, a loose fitting tunic in a pale green, warm woolen breeches and sturdy boots. It's hard to tell her from a boy any more at first glance, save for the few feminine curves she possesses and her clear alto voice. Her arms are scarred some from burns others look like they have been earned in fights. A good belt knife hangs at her hip and the Knot of a Candidate is affixed to her shoulder, and below it the Knot of a Senior apprentice blacksmith. Nathalia is 18 Turns old&lt;br /&gt;

There is a pixyish quality to the girl's looks, from her slender, well muscled frame, to the steel-blue of her eyes, to the curve of her smile. Gone is the the long thick mass of hair. Now the choppy ash brown hair hangs just past her chin. Large eyes and a full mouth add a soft feminine quality to the curve of her chin and jaw. Thick expressive brows and a delicate nose complete that face filled with youthful mischief. %r Her clothes are surprisingly plain, a loose fitting tunic in a pale green, warm woolen breeches and sturdy boots. It's hard to tell her from a boy any more at first glance, save for the few feminine curves she possesses and her clear alto voice. Her arms are scarred some from burns others look like they have been earned in fights. A good belt knife hangs at her hip and the Knot of a Candidate is affixed to her shoulder, and below it the Knot of a Senior apprentice blacksmith. Nathalia is 18 Turns old&lt;br /&gt;

*Nathalia was transferred to High Reaches from the Smith Hall only very recently, The Day of the Clutching Party for Iovinath's third clutch to be precise. It was thought she would find High Reaches a 'good fit' given her personality.&lt;br /&gt;

-	&lt;br /&gt;
*Day 19, month 3, turn 26 of Interval 10, Nathalia is searched out for high reaches by bluerider [[Warucori]] and [[Zaxameth]] to stand for Iovinath's third clutch.&lt;br /&gt;

= History =&lt;br /&gt;
	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
Some people's lives begin with a choice.  In Nathalia's case it was her father Thanael's choice to give up his opportunity for advancement to remain stationed at Igen Weyr. He had fallen hard for Green Rider Nadaea, and they had decided to try and make the relationship work long term, despite the obvious struggles that might arise. Issues did arise, and the day they decided to part ways Nadaea discovered that despite her measures she was with child. Wanting nothing to do with it, Thanael stayed in Igen until his daughter was born. &lt;br /&gt;
	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
==Early Childhood==&lt;br /&gt;
	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
Thanael and Nathalia moved to the Smith Craft Hall as soon as Nat was old enough to safely travel.  Growing up without her mother did effect Nat deeply, and while it was true most riders were forced by necessity to hand over the duties of raising their progeny, Nadaea never so much as even looked at her daughter.  Her father did his best to make up for it by doting on Nathalia and taking her with him everywhere he possibly could.  Nat was never an extremely prissy child, she liked dresses and ribbons but also had no qualms about chasing crawlers or hunting tunnel snakes. A scrappy little thing, she took to fighting a little too well for her own good, though she didn't usually start them.&lt;br /&gt;
	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
Nat spent most of her time in her father's modest workroom, watching as he would weigh out compounds and check the strengths of various stocks of ore. Her favorite thing was watching him work the forge, the hot sooty smells of the fires filling her with a warm sense of comfort. While others may have been surprised that the girl child had decided to follow in her father's footsteps and go into Smiting proper, it was a natural choice for Nathalia.&lt;br /&gt;
	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
==Apprenticeship==&lt;br /&gt;
	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
At the age of twelve, Nathalia began her apprenticeship, and it would be a long and tedious road.  While the current Master of the hall was in fact a woman, many of the other Apprentices seemed to be all to happy to forget this fact when it came to 'judging ability.&amp;quot;  Nat had to work hard, and was often frustrated at the lack of respect she received from her peers.  Any advancements she made were tallied under either someone feeling sorry for her, being a teachers pet, or even something more crass. &lt;br /&gt;
	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
	 &lt;br /&gt;
-	&lt;br /&gt;
Needless to say that in part because of the kinds of boys her craft attracts, and in part because of her pride, fighting became a routine in her world.  Usually it was some hold bred boy who was angry and embarrassed at being showed up, or just generally a male with a chip on their shoulder, Nat discovered she liked to drink when she had to nurse a particularly nasty set of bruises. She rarely ever lost, and the few times she was close someone would usually intervene. It had started to become a real problem by the time she made senior apprentice. While the Master of the Hall could certainly sympathize, something drastic needed to be done.&lt;br /&gt;

There is a pixyish quality to the girl's looks, from her slender, well muscled frame, to the steel-blue of her eyes, to the curve of her smile. Gone is the the long thick mass of hair. Now the choppy ash brown hair hangs just past her chin. Large eyes and a full mouth add a soft feminine quality to the curve of her chin and jaw. Thick expressive brows and a delicate nose complete that face filled with youthful mischief. %r Her clothes are surprisingly plain, a loose fitting tunic in a pale green, warm woolen breeches and sturdy boots. It's hard to tell her from a boy any more at first glance, save for the few feminine curves she possesses and her clear alto voice. Her arms are scarred some from burns others look like they have been earned in fights. A good belt knife hangs at her hip and the Knot of a Candidate is affixed to her shoulder, and below it the Knot of a Senior apprentice blacksmith. Nathalia is 18 Turns old&lt;br /&gt;

*Nathalia was transferred to High Reaches from the Smith Hall only very recently, The Day of the Clutching Party for Iovinath's third clutch to be precise. It was thought she would find High Reaches a 'good fit' given her personality.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Day 19, month 3, turn 26 of Interval 10, Nathalia is searched out for high reaches by bluerider [[Warucori]] and [[Zaxameth]] to stand for Iovinath's third clutch.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
= History =&lt;br /&gt;
Some people's lives begin with a choice.  In Nathalia's case it was her father Thanael's choice to give up his opportunity for advancement to remain stationed at Igen Weyr. He had fallen hard for Green Rider Nadaea, and they had decided to try and make the relationship work long term, despite the obvious struggles that might arise. Issues did arise, and the day they decided to part ways Nadaea discovered that despite her measures she was with child. Wanting nothing to do with it, Thanael stayed in Igen until his daughter was born.  &lt;br /&gt;
==Early Childhood==&lt;br /&gt;
Thanael and Nathalia moved to the Smith Craft Hall as soon as Nat was old enough to safely travel.  Growing up without her mother did effect Nat deeply, and while it was true most riders were forced by necessity to hand over the duties of raising their progeny, Nadaea never so much as even looked at her daughter.  Her father did his best to make up for it by doting on Nathalia and taking her with him everywhere he possibly could.  Nat was never an extremely prissy child, she liked dresses and ribbons but also had no qualms about chasing crawlers or hunting tunnel snakes. A scrappy little thing, she took to fighting a little too well for her own good, though she didn't usually start them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nat spent most of her time in her father's modest workroom, watching as he would weigh out compounds and check the strengths of various stocks of ore. Her favorite thing was watching him work the forge, the hot sooty smells of the fires filling her with a warm sense of comfort. While others may have been surprised that the girl child had decided to follow in her father's footsteps and go into Smiting proper, it was a natural choice for Nathalia.&lt;br /&gt;
==Apprenticeship==&lt;br /&gt;
At the age of twelve, Nathalia began her apprenticeship, and it would be a long and tedious road.  While the current Master of the hall was in fact a woman, many of the other Apprentices seemed to be all to happy to forget this fact when it came to 'judging ability.&amp;quot;  Nat had to work hard, and was often frustrated at the lack of respect she received from her peers.  Any advancements she made were tallied under either someone feeling sorry for her, being a teachers pet, or even something more crass.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Needless to say that in part because of the kinds of boys her craft attracts, and in part because of her pride, fighting became a routine in her world.  Usually it was some hold bred boy who was angry and embarrassed at being showed up, or just generally a male with a chip on their shoulder, Nat discovered she liked to drink when she had to nurse a particularly nasty set of bruises. She rarely ever lost, and the few times she was close someone would usually intervene. It had started to become a real problem by the time she made senior apprentice. While the Master of the Hall could certainly sympathize, something drastic needed to be done.&lt;br /&gt;

= Description =&lt;br /&gt;
There is a pixyish quality to the girl's looks, from her slender, well muscled frame, to the steel-blue of her eyes, to the curve of her smile. Gone is the the long thick mass of hair. Now the choppy ash brown hair hangs just past her chin. Large eyes and a full mouth add a soft feminine quality to the curve of her chin and jaw. Thick expressive brows and a delicate nose complete that face filled with youthful mischief. %r Her clothes are surprisingly plain, a loose fitting tunic in a pale green, warm woolen breeches and sturdy boots. It's hard to tell her from a boy any more at first glance, save for the few feminine curves she posesses and her clear alto voice. Her arms are scarred some from burns others look like they have been earned in fights. A good belt knife hangs at her hip and the Knot of a Candidate is affixed to her shoulder, and below it the Knot of a Senior apprentice blacksmith. Nathalia is 18 Turns old&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= WYSK =&lt;br /&gt;
*Nathalia was transferred to High Reaches from the Smith Hall only very recently, The Day of the Clutching Party for Iovinath's third clutch to be precise. It was thought she would find High Reaches a 'good fit' given her personality.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Day 19, month 3, turn 26 of Interval 10, Nathalia is searched out for high reaches by bluerider [[Warucori]] and [[Zaxameth]] to stand for Iovinath's third clutch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Day 22, month 6, turn 26 of Interval 10. Nathalia is left on the sands.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= History =&lt;br /&gt;
Some people's lives begin with a choice.  In Nathalia's case it was her father Thanael's choice to give up his opportunity for advancement to remain stationed at Igen Weyr. He had fallen hard for Green Rider Nadaea, and they had decided to try and make the relationship work long term, despite the obvious struggles that might arise. Issues did arise, and the day they decided to part ways Nadaea discovered that despite her measures she was with child. Wanting nothing to do with it, Thanael stayed in Igen until his daughter was born.  &lt;br /&gt;
==Early Childhood==&lt;br /&gt;
Thanael and Nathalia moved to the Smith Craft Hall as soon as Nat was old enough to safely travel.  Growing up without her mother did effect Nat deeply, and while it was true most riders were forced by necessity to hand over the duties of raising their progeny, Nadaea never so much as even looked at her daughter.  Her father did his best to make up for it by doting on Nathalia and taking her with him everywhere he possibly could.  Nat was never an extremely prissy child, she liked dresses and ribbons but also had no qualms about chasing crawlers or hunting tunnel snakes. A scrappy little thing, she took to fighting a little too well for her own good, though she didn't usually start them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nat spent most of her time in her father's modest workroom, watching as he would weigh out compounds and check the strengths of various stocks of ore. Her favorite thing was watching him work the forge, the hot sooty smells of the fires filling her with a warm sense of comfort. While others may have been surprised that the girl child had decided to follow in her father's footsteps and go into Smiting proper, it was a natural choice for Nathalia.&lt;br /&gt;
==Apprenticeship==&lt;br /&gt;
At the age of twelve, Nathalia began her apprenticeship, and it would be a long and tedious road.  While the current Master of the hall was in fact a woman, many of the other Apprentices seemed to be all to happy to forget this fact when it came to 'judging ability.&amp;quot;  Nat had to work hard, and was often frustrated at the lack of respect she received from her peers.  Any advancements she made were tallied under either someone feeling sorry for her, being a teachers pet, or even something more crass.  This fact alone is probably what has steered her away from any kind of intimate relationship.  She can banter with the best of them, but when it comes to things like kissing and the like, she is completely out of her element.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Needless to say that in part because of the kinds of boys her craft attracts, and in part because of her pride, fighting became a routine in her world.  Usually it was some hold bred boy who was angry and embarrassed at being showed up, or just generally a male with a chip on their shoulder, Nat discovered she liked to drink when she had to nurse a particularly nasty set of bruises. She rarely ever lost, and the few times she was close someone would usually intervene. It had started to become a real problem by the time she made senior apprentice. While the Master of the Hall could certainly sympathize, something drastic needed to be done.  &lt;br /&gt;

==Apprenticeship==&lt;br /&gt;
At the age of twelve, Nathalia began her apprenticeship, and it would be a long and tedious road.

While the Master of the Hall could certainly sympathize, something drastic needed to be done.  &lt;br /&gt;
==High Reaches==&lt;br /&gt;
Nathalia's placement at high reaches was well thought out and soundly reasoned, even if the girl herself didn't quite understand the thinking. Having one of the best Crafting facilities outside of the hall itself, Nat would be able to finish out her Apprenticeship in an environment more 'suited' to her peculiarities.  After her first night there during the Clutching party for Iovinath's third clutch, she started to understand just why the Master craft smith thought it would be a better fit. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is a winter Evening, Day 19, month 3, turn 26 of Interval 10, Nathalia is searched out for high reaches by bluerider [[Warucori]] and [[Zaxameth]] to stand for Iovinath's third clutch.&lt;br /&gt;

= Description =&lt;br /&gt;
There is a pixyish quality to the girl's looks, from her slender, well muscled frame, to the steel-blue of her eyes, to the curve of her smile. Gone is the the long thick mass of hair. Now the choppy ash brown hair hangs just past her chin. Large eyes and a full mouth add a soft feminine quality to the curve of her chin and jaw. Thick expressive brows and a delicate nose complete that face filled with youthful mischief. %r Her clothes are surprisingly plain, a loose fitting tunic in a pale green, warm woolen breeches and sturdy boots. It's hard to tell her from a boy any more at first glance, save for the few feminine curves she posesses and her clear alto voice. Her arms are scarred some from burns others look like they have been earned in fights. A good belt knife hangs at her hip and the Knot of a Candidate is affixed to her shoulder, and below it the Knot of a Senior apprentice blacksmith. Nathalia is 18 Turns old&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

*Nathalia was transferred to High Reaches from the Smith Hall only very recently, The Day of the Clutching Party for Iovinath's third clutch to be precise. It was thought she would find High Reaches a 'good fit' given her personality.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Day 19, month 3, turn 26 of Interval 10, Nathalia is searched out for high reaches by bluerider [[Warucori]] and [[Zaxameth]] to stand for Iovinath's third clutch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= History =&lt;br /&gt;
Some people's lives begin with a choice.  In Nathalia's case it was her father Thanael's choice to give up his opportunity for advancement to remain stationed at Igen Weyr. He had fallen hard for Green Rider Nadaea, and they had decided to try and make the relationship work long term, despite the obvious struggles that might arise. Issues did arise, and the day they decided to part ways Nadaea discovered that despite her measures she was with child. Wanting nothing to do with it, Thanael stayed in Igen until his daughter was born.  &lt;br /&gt;
==Early Childhood==&lt;br /&gt;
Thanael and Nathalia moved to the Smith Craft Hall as soon as Nat was old enough to safely travel.  Growing up without her mother did effect Nat deeply, and while it was true most riders were forced by necessity to hand over the duties of raising their progeny, Nadaea never so much as even looked at her daughter.  Her father did his best to make up for it by doting on Nathalia and taking her with him everywhere he possibly could.  Nat was never an extremely prissy child, she liked dresses and ribbons but also had no qualms about chasing crawlers or hunting tunnel snakes. A scrappy little thing, she took to fighting a little too well for her own good, though she didn't usually start them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nat spent most of her time in her father's modest workroom, watching as he would weigh out compounds and check the strengths of various stocks of ore. Her favorite thing was watching him work the forge, the hot sooty smells of the fires filling her with a warm sense of comfort. While others may have been surprised that the girl child had decided to follow in her father's footsteps and go into Smiting proper, it was a natural choice for Nathalia.&lt;br /&gt;
==Apprenticeship==&lt;br /&gt;
At the age of twelve, Nathalia began her apprenticeship, and it would be a long and tedious road.  While the current Master of the hall was in fact a woman, many of the other Apprentices seemed to be all to happy to forget this fact when it came to 'judging ability.&amp;quot;  Nat had to work hard, and was often frustrated at the lack of respect she received from her peers.  Any advancements she made were tallied under either someone feeling sorry for her, being a teachers pet, or even something more crass.  This fact alone is probably what has steered her away from any kind of intimate relationship.  She can banter with the best of them, but when it comes to things like kissing and the like, she is completely out of her element.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Needless to say that in part because of the kinds of boys her craft attracts, and in part because of her pride, fighting became a routine in her world.  Usually it was some hold bred boy who was angry and embarrassed at being showed up, or just generally a male with a chip on their shoulder, Nat discovered she liked to drink when she had to nurse a particularly nasty set of bruises. She rarely ever lost, and the few times she was close someone would usually intervene. It had started to become a real problem by the time she made senior apprentice. While the Master of the Hall could certainly sympathize, something drastic needed to be done.  &lt;br /&gt;
==High Reaches==&lt;br /&gt;
Nathalia's placement at high reaches was well thought out and soundly reasoned, even if the girl herself didn't quite understand the thinking. Having one of the best Crafting facilities outside of the hall itself, Nat would be able to finish out her Apprenticeship in an environment more 'suited' to her peculiarities.  After her first night there during the Clutching party for Iovinath's third clutch, she started to understand just why the Master craft smith thought it would be a better fit. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is a winter Evening, Day 19, month 3, turn 26 of Interval 10, Nathalia is searched out for high reaches by bluerider [[Warucori]] and [[Zaxameth]] to stand for Iovinath's third clutch.&lt;br /&gt;

= Description =&lt;br /&gt;
For some, it might be difficult to believe that this sprightly girl is actually a Smithcrafter.  Literally, she looks up to just about anyone, standing at only 5’2”.  The evidence is there for those who would recognize it.  Strong limbs are well toned, but not to the point of seeming masculine.  Old burn scars spatter her arms, the clear lessons of how not to stoke a fire.  The thick tangle of hair she possesses is more oft than not streaked with soot and singed in areas, despite being pulled back from her face, and it trails down to about the middle of her back.  Thick expressive brows perch above mischievous steel-blue eyes and a delicate nose.  Her lips are full, offering a soft femininity to her jaw line and chin.  She wears a soft green-grey tunic, over which is cinched a leather corset that enhances the subtle curves of her figure.  Warm wool breeches are tucked neatly into her knee-high boots, and a good belt knife hangs at her waist. The knot of Senior Apprentice is tied neatly on her shoulder. Nathalia is roughly 17 turns old.&lt;br /&gt;

= Description =&lt;br /&gt;
For some, it might be difficult to believe that this sprightly girl is actually a Smithcrafter.  Literally, she looks up to just about anyone, standing at only 5’2”.  The evidence is there for those who would recognize it.  Strong limbs are well toned, but not to the point of seeming masculine.  Old burn scars spatter her arms, the clear lessons of how not to stoke a fire.  The thick tangle of hair she possesses is more oft than not streaked with soot and singed in areas, despite being pulled back from her face, and it trails down to about the middle of her back.  Thick expressive brows perch above mischievous steel-blue eyes and a delicate nose.  Her lips are full, offering a soft femininity to her jaw line and chin.  She wears a soft green-grey tunic, over which is cinched a leather corset that enhances the subtle curves of her figure.  Warm wool breeches are tucked neatly into her knee-high boots, and a good belt knife hangs at her waist. The knot of Senior Apprentice is tied neatly on her shoulder. Nathalia is roughly 17 turns old.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= WYSK =&lt;br /&gt;
Nathalia was transferred to High Reaches only very recently, The Day of the Clutching Party for Iovinath's third clutch to be precise. It was thought she would find High Reaches a 'good fit' given her personality.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= History =&lt;br /&gt;
Some people's lives begin with a choice.  In Nathalia's case it was her father Thanael's choice to give up his opportunity for advancement to remain stationed at Igen Weyr. He had fallen hard for Green Rider Nadaea, and they had decided to try and make the relationship work long term, despite the obvious struggles that might arise. Issues did arise, and the day they decided to part ways Nadaea discovered that despite her measures she was with child. Wanting nothing to do with it, Thanael stayed in Igen until his daughter was born.  &lt;br /&gt;
==Early Childhood==&lt;br /&gt;
Thanael and Nathalia moved to the Smith Craft Hall as soon as Nat was old enough to safely travel.  Growing up without her mother did effect Nat deeply, and while it was true most riders were forced by necessity to hand over the duties of raising their progeny, Nadaea never so much as even looked at her daughter.  Her father did his best to make up for it by doting on Nathalia and taking her with him everywhere he possibly could.  Nat was never an extremely prissy child, she liked dresses and ribbons but also had no qualms about chasing crawlers or hunting tunnel snakes. A scrappy little thing, she took to fighting a little too well for her own good, though she didn't usually start them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nat spent most of her time in her father's modest workroom, watching as he would weigh out compounds and check the strengths of various stocks of ore. Her favorite thing was watching him work the forge, the hot sooty smells of the fires filling her with a warm sense of comfort. While others may have been surprised that the girl child had decided to follow in her father's footsteps and go into Smiting proper, it was a natural choice for Nathalia.&lt;br /&gt;
==Apprenticeship==&lt;br /&gt;
At the age of twelve, Nathalia began her apprenticeship, and it would be a long and tedious road.  While the current Master of the hall was in fact a woman, many of the other Apprentices seemed to be all to happy to forget this fact when it came to 'judging ability.&amp;quot;  Nat had to work hard, and was often frustrated at the lack of respect she received from her peers.  Any advancements she made were tallied under either someone feeling sorry for her, being a teachers pet, or even something more crass.  This fact alone is probably what has steered her away from any kind of intimate relationship.  She can banter with the best of them, but when it comes to things like kissing and the like, she is completely out of her element.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Needless to say that in part because of the kinds of boys her craft attracts, and in part because of her pride, fighting became a routine in her world.  Usually it was some hold bred boy who was angry and embarrassed at being showed up, or just generally a male with a chip on their shoulder, Nat discovered she liked to drink when she had to nurse a particularly nasty set of bruises. She rarely ever lost, and the few times she was close someone would usually intervene. It had started to become a real problem by the time she made senior apprentice. While the Master of the Hall could certainly sympathize, something drastic needed to be done.  &lt;br /&gt;
==High Reaches==&lt;br /&gt;
Nathalia's placement at high reaches was well thought out and soundly reasoned, even if the girl herself didn't quite understand the thinking. Having one of the best Crafting facilities outside of the hall itself, Nat would be able to finish out her Apprenticeship in an environment more 'suited' to her peculiarities.  After her first night there during the Clutching party for Iovinath's third clutch, she started to understand just why the Master craft smith thought it would be a better fit. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is a winter Evening, Day 19, month 3, turn 26 of Interval 10, Nathalia is searched out for high reaches by bluerider [[Warucori]] and [[Zaxameth]] to stand for Iovinath's third clutch.&lt;br /&gt;

= Description =&lt;br /&gt;
For some, it might be difficult to believe that this sprightly girl is actually a Smithcrafter.  Literally, she looks up to just about anyone, standing at only 5’2”.  The evidence is there for those who would recognize it.  Strong limbs are well toned, but not to the point of seeming masculine.  Old burn scars spatter her arms, the clear lessons of how not to stoke a fire.  The thick tangle of hair she possesses is more oft than not streaked with soot and singed in areas, despite being pulled back from her face, and it trails down to about the middle of her back.  Thick expressive brows perch above mischievous steel-blue eyes and a delicate nose.  Her lips are full, offering a soft femininity to her jaw line and chin.  She wears a soft green-grey tunic, over which is cinched a leather corset that enhances the subtle curves of her figure.  Warm wool breeches are tucked neatly into her knee-high boots, and a good belt knife hangs at her waist. The knot of Senior Apprentice is tied neatly on her shoulder. Nathalia is roughly 17 turns old.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= WYSK =&lt;br /&gt;
Nathalia was transferred to High Reaches only very recently, The Day of the Clutching Party for Iovinath's third clutch to be precise. It was thought she would find High Reaches a 'good fit' given her personality.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= History =&lt;br /&gt;
Some people's lives begin with a choice.  In Nathalia's case it was her father Thanael's choice to give up his opportunity for advancement to remain stationed at Igen Weyr. He had fallen hard for Green Rider Nadaea, and they had decided to try and make the relationship work long term, despite the obvious struggles that might arise. Issues did arise, and the day they decided to part ways Nadaea discovered that despite her measures she was with child. Wanting nothing to do with it, Thanael stayed in Igen until his daughter was born.  &lt;br /&gt;
==Early Childhood==&lt;br /&gt;
Thanael and Nathalia moved to the Smith Craft Hall as soon as Nat was old enough to safely travel.  Growing up without her mother did effect Nat deeply, and while it was true most riders were forced by necessity to hand over the duties of raising their progeny, Nadaea never so much as even looked at her daughter.  Her father did his best to make up for it by doting on Nathalia and taking her with him everywhere he possibly could.  Nat was never an extremely prissy child, she liked dresses and ribbons but also had no qualms about chasing crawlers or hunting tunnel snakes. A scrappy little thing, she took to fighting a little too well for her own good, though she didn't usually start them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nat spent most of her time in her father's modest workroom, watching as he would weigh out compounds and check the strengths of various stocks of ore. Her favorite thing was watching him work the forge, the hot sooty smells of the fires filling her with a warm sense of comfort. While others may have been surprised that the girl child had decided to follow in her father's footsteps and go into Smiting proper, it was a natural choice for Nathalia.&lt;br /&gt;
==Apprenticeship==&lt;br /&gt;
At the age of twelve, Nathalia began her apprenticeship, and it would be a long and tedious road.  While the current Master of the hall was in fact a woman, many of the other Apprentices seemed to be all to happy to forget this fact when it came to 'judging ability.&amp;quot;  Nat had to work hard, and was often frustrated at the lack of respect she received from her peers.  Any advancements she made were tallied under either someone feeling sorry for her, being a teachers pet, or even something more crass.  This fact alone is probably what has steered her away from any kind of intimate relationship.  She can banter with the best of them, but when it comes to things like kissing and the like, she is completely out of her element.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Needless to say that in part because of the kinds of boys her craft attracts, and in part because of her pride, fighting became a routine in her world.  Usually it was some hold bred boy who was angry and embarrassed at being showed up, or just generally a male with a chip on their shoulder, Nat discovered she liked to drink when she had to nurse a particularly nasty set of bruises. She rarely ever lost, and the few times she was close someone would usually intervene. It had started to become a real problem by the time she made senior apprentice. While the Master of the Hall could certainly sympathize, something drastic needed to be done.  &lt;br /&gt;
==High Reaches==&lt;br /&gt;
Nathalia's placement at high reaches was well thought out and soundly reasoned, even if the girl herself didn't quite understand the thinking. Having one of the best Crafting facilities outside of the hall itself, Nat would be able to finish out her Apprenticeship in an environment more 'suited' to her peculiarities.  After her first night there during the Clutching party for Iovinath's third clutch, she started to understand just why the Master craft smith thought it would be a better fit. &lt;br /&gt;

|name=Nathalia &lt;br /&gt;

|Age=17 Turns&lt;br /&gt;
|craft=Smith&lt;br /&gt;
|birthplace=Igen Weyr&lt;br /&gt;

= Description =&lt;br /&gt;
For some, it might be difficult to believe that this sprightly girl is actually a Smithcrafter.  Literally, she looks up to just about anyone, standing at only 5’2”.  The evidence is there for those who would recognize it.  Strong limbs are well toned, but not to the point of seeming masculine.  Old burn scars spatter her arms, the clear lessons of how not to stoke a fire.  The thick tangle of hair she possesses is more oft than not streaked with soot and singed in areas, despite being pulled back from her face, and it trails down to about the middle of her back.  Thick expressive brows perch above mischievous steel-blue eyes and a delicate nose.  Her lips are full, offering a soft femininity to her jaw line and chin.  She wears a soft green-grey tunic, over which is cinched a leather corset that enhances the subtle curves of her figure.  Warm wool breeches are tucked neatly into her knee-high boots, and a good belt knife hangs at her waist. The knot of Senior Apprentice is tied neatly on her shoulder. Nathalia is roughly 17 turns old.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= WYSK =&lt;br /&gt;
Nathalia was transferred to High Reaches only very recently, The Day of the Clutching Party for Iovinath's third clutch to be precise. It was thought she would find High Reaches a 'good fit' given her personality.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
= History =&lt;br /&gt;
Some people's lives begin with a choice.  In Nathalia's case it was her father Thanael's choice to give up his opportunity for advancement to remain stationed at Igen Weyr. He had fallen hard for Green Rider Nadaea, and they had decided to try and make the relationship work long term, despite the obvious struggles that might arise. Issues did arise, and the day they decided to part ways Nadaea discovered that despite her measures she was with child. Wanting nothing to do with it, Thanael stayed in Igen until his daughter was born.  &lt;br /&gt;
==Early Childhood==&lt;br /&gt;
Thanael and Nathalia moved to the Smith Craft Hall as soon as Nat was old enough to safely travel.  Growing up without her mother did effect Nat deeply, and while it was true most riders were forced by necessity to hand over the duties of raising their progeny, Nadaea never so much as even looked at her daughter.  Her father did his best to make up for it by doting on Nathalia and taking her with him everywhere he possibly could.  Nat was never an extremely prissy child, she liked dresses and ribbons but also had no qualms about chasing crawlers or hunting tunnel snakes. A scrappy little thing, she took to fighting a little too well for her own good, though she didn't usually start them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nat spent most of her time in her father's modest workroom, watching as he would weigh out compounds and check the strengths of various stocks of ore. Her favorite thing was watching him work the forge, the hot sooty smells of the fires filling her with a warm sense of comfort. While others may have been surprised that the girl child had decided to follow in her father's footsteps and go into Smiting proper, it was a natural choice for Nathalia.&lt;br /&gt;
==Apprenticeship==&lt;br /&gt;
At the age of twelve, Nathalia began her apprenticeship, and it would be a long and tedious road.  While the current Master of the hall was in fact a woman, many of the other Apprentices seemed to be all to happy to forget this fact when it came to 'judging ability.&amp;quot;  Nat had to work hard, and was often frustrated at the lack of respect she received from her peers.  Any advancements she made were tallied under either someone feeling sorry for her, being a teachers pet, or even something more crass.  This fact alone is probably what has steered her away from any kind of intimate relationship.  She can banter with the best of them, but when it comes to things like kissing and the like, she is completely out of her element.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Needless to say that in part because of the kinds of boys her craft attracts, and in part because of her pride, fighting became a routine in her world.  Usually it was some hold bred boy who was angry and embarrassed at being showed up, or just generally a male with a chip on their shoulder, Nat discovered she liked to drink when she had to nurse a particularly nasty set of bruises. She rarely ever lost, and the few times she was close someone would usually intervene. It had started to become a real problem by the time she made senior apprentice. While the Master of the Hall could certainly sympathize, something drastic needed to be done.  &lt;br /&gt;
==High Reaches==&lt;br /&gt;
Nathalia's placement at high reaches was well thought out and soundly reasoned, even if the girl herself didn't quite understand the thinking. Having one of the best Crafting facilities outside of the hall itself, Nat would be able to finish out her Apprenticeship in an environment more 'suited' to her peculiarities.  After her first night there during the Clutching party for Iovinath's third clutch, she started to understand just why the Master craft smith thought it would be a better fit. &lt;br /&gt;

= Description =&lt;br /&gt;
For some, it might be difficult to believe that this sprightly girl is actually a Smithcrafter.  Literally, she looks up to just about anyone, standing at only 5’2”.  The evidence is there for those who would recognize it.  Strong limbs are well toned, but not to the point of seeming masculine.  Old burn scars spatter her arms, the clear lessons of how not to stoke a fire.  The thick tangle of hair she possesses is more oft than not streaked with soot and singed in areas, despite being pulled back from her face, and it trails down to about the middle of her back.  Thick expressive brows perch above mischievous steel-blue eyes and a delicate nose.  Her lips are full, offering a soft femininity to her jaw line and chin.  She wears a soft green-grey tunic, over which is cinched a leather corset that enhances the subtle curves of her figure.  Warm wool breeches are tucked neatly into her knee-high boots, and a good belt knife hangs at her waist. The knot of Senior Apprentice is tied neatly on her shoulder. Nathalia is roughly 17 turns old.&lt;br /&gt;

Nathalia was transferred to High Reaches only very recently, The Day of the Clutching Party for Iovinath's third clutch to be precise. It was thought she would find High Reaches a 'good fit' given her personality.&lt;br /&gt;

= Description =&lt;br /&gt;
At first glance, it is difficult to believe that this airy woman is a smith, her slight frame stands at not an inch over 5'2&amp;quot; and the curves of womanhood are Subtle. Still the evidence bears itself in the muscle of her limbs, the fading. Her thick ash brown hair is pulled back from her face and let to trail down the small of her back, its straight but a bit wild, seeming to have a mind of its own at times, however with out it Nathalia fears being mistaken for a boy. She is of a practical mind where clothing is concerned, a warm green tunic, over which a brown leather corset is cinched, giving the impression of a more 'womanly' figure. Thick calfskin breeches are tucked into knee high boots of a sturdy variety, lined with fur for warmth. She looks to be roughly 17 turns, 12 months, 11 days old.&lt;br /&gt;
