Description

At 5'5", it's that much easier for Leova to blend in with a crowd, particularly when wearing the boxy jacket that conceals her curves. She doesn't often fuss with her looks and her short, sun-rusted hair is low maintenance as well. Tawny skin is further browned by sun and wind, doing little to soften the feline cast to her features, and her dark-fringed eyes are the yellow amber of a masterminer's prize.

At first glance, she's dressed much as she had for stable work, with heavy boots that still see daily polish and plain brown pants that let her stride lengthen. Her high-necked shirt is just as brown and just as plain, but it and the trousers are cut to taper to her waist rather than bunching up at the belt the way her older clothes did. A thick fleece-lined jacket with a wingrider's knot on one shoulder regularly accompanies her, worn when needed, slung over one arm when not.

Vrianth

The dusty olive of a fitted wool coat shapes this lithe green, and while she may never entirely fill out her lean, powerhouse physique, a different sort of maturity refines the angles of her narrow face. Large eyes, their facets keenly whittled and their color uncommonly intense, convey strong emotions and the sense of hidden schemes. Down the far-reaching curve of her neck and across sculpted shoulders and haunches, the patina of densely woven gray-heathered green alternates with twists of brighter burnish, while shadows dark as charcoal gather about her joints. Long-sparred wings, nearly as dark and appearing too delicate to enable flight, reveal an undercurrent of ropy resilience through sails that have the fine, faded sheen of a silvery sisal lining. A nonchalant strength slides fluidly through her rangy frame, sporadically visible in the ripple of muscular movement and especially in the swish of her elegantly long tail.

WYSK

• Basics

• A little less basic

1. Leova and Vrianth fly under F'rint in Glacier wing. She also has a part-time dragonhealer gig under U'sot, so it's a good thing that Glacier doesn't drill much.
   • The pair has never had a single steady job. They started out in Snowstrike under C'del, AWLMed under I'daur (Rielsath x Malsaeth), got shipped off to Glacier under N'thei and then F'rint when Snowstrike was disbanded, AWLMed a couple times under Meara (including Iovniath x Cadejoth #1), and then went back to Glacier again.
   • Wing-wise, they get the job done. Leova's quietly butch (where 'quiet' approaches 'taciturn') and Vrianth's electric, emphasizing agility and power over endurance wherever possible.
   • Dragonhealing-wise, Leova specializes in rehabilitation and (by necessity) weyrling complaints. She's also had to add care of the elderly, like it or not.
2. Leova spends quality time with bartender Anvori, whom she weyrmated shortly before bearing their daughter, Via. They later had twins Veylin and Varian. Vrianth spends quality time, or at least a good chunk of her flights, with Sh'dor's blue Idriloth.
3. More?

• Leova Impressed Vrianth from Teonath and Wyaeth's only clutch near the end of the Comet Pass. The two got to fight some Thread, though not enough for their tastes, and escaped even the disastrous Final Fall without being scored.
• They were part of the original "silver thread" weyrling leadership track along with I'ro, Sh'dor, S'trun, and later L'vae.
• Vrianth, or maybe it's Leova, doesn't Search much: just Evayne and W'chek|Whitchek for Iovniath and Cadejoth's first clutch, Inviere and Vyshani for their second, and a few more as the Turns have gone by.
• Leova whittles off and on. She also has added retaining walls to their ledge to support apple and plum trees, and large (shuttered) windows like L'vae's to their weyr. Even though she's in Glacier and often can be found as part of the boisterous bunch at the Snowasis, she's frugal and doesn't actually gamble much. Maybe she needs the marks for home remodeling.

Soundtrack

I went with an older era for Leova's music to reflect how, in some ways, she was stuck out of time.
