At a Glance

WYSK

Minara arrived in High Reaches in winter, shortly before the beginning of turn 36, after convincing one of its visiting riders to whisk her away from her life in one of Benden's minor holds. She has shown evidence of hold training both in her mannerisms and speech, though she has told very few so far which exact hold she is from, or who she was while she lived there. About six months later, she was given a permanent position as one of the Weyr's Storeskeepers.

Description

Tall enough to be slightly gangling, but just substantial enough to avoid petite, Min still seems to be caught somewhere between teenaged girl and adult woman. She has curves, but they're subtle, and if she smiles, there is an understated beauty that shines through, but most of the time her expression is masked in a serious study, slate blue eyes sharp above a somewhat pointed nose and full lips. Her hair is a wavy mixture of auburn and burnt umber, usually tied back in a simple braid that reaches just past her bony shoulders. With a naturally medium-toned complexion, the sun has lent a little more colour to her skin, though not enough to indicate anything more than casual labour out-of-doors.

History

Minara is the second daughter (of many) of one of Benden's minor holders. Unwilling (or maybe unable) to be married off, in the last month of turn 35, she convinced a visiting rider to take her far, far away. Which ended up being back to his home Weyr of High Reaches. She couldn't get much farther from Benden than that without changing continents, so it seemed perfect.

For the first half turn after moving to the Weyr, Minara spent most of her days signing up as a casual worker for whatever tasks might be available, which could be anything from drudge work to clerical to mending clothing, though after a short while she began ending up most consistently in the stores, assisting the clerks. This eventually led to a permanent position as a Storeskeeper.

While her accent places her most certainly from the Benden area, she hasn't been entirely forthright about where exactly in that area, saying only that she needed a drastic change of scenery. The truth, but not the whole truth.

• A'rist - Such a strange rider. Seemed nicely meticulous, though, which Min appreciated.
• Ashe - A bright crafter type who helped Min get the rug back underneath her feet. Literally.
• Azaylia - Min first met the senior weyrwoman shortly after the death of her junior. Not the best time for first impressions, but it still ended up a good one.
• Edyis - One of the first people Minara met when she moved to 'Reaches. The interaction was fleeting, though there will likely be more, given Min's new position.
• Lycinea - Min wasn't sure what to make of this one. A tease, but not in the fun way. Reserving judgement for now.
