Description

Edeline is a slight woman, slim-statured and lightly built. Ink-black hair falls cleanly to her back when it isn't otherwise bound elaborately atop her head, a perfect match for the dark irises of small eyes. She's slender and refined, much like her careful posture and bearing. Her face could be called attractive without really being pretty, high cheekbones and dusky skin. Here is one who has embraced the breeding and grooming that the life of the privileged requires, a fact well evident in her appearance and modulated voice.

History

Daughter of Lord Drehfti and Lady Lindony of Tillek Hold, both deceased. Her mother died shortly after Edeline's birth, and her father died at the Tillekian Brewfest in turn 17 after a fall down the stairs. The oldest child of the true Tillekian bloodline, she often quarreled, openly, with her stepmother and stepbrother, a fact exacerbated by the issue that she was never confirmed as her father's heir. Presumably, this is because she was younger than Nederan, unmarried, and a girl-child to boot. She disappeared for a number of days after her father's death, eventually surfacing after living in her cousin's cothold near Tillek, then relocating to High Reaches Weyr, seeking "asylum," while Ysave and Nederan ran Tillek without the Conclave's confirmation.

She arranged her own marriage to Potipher in Turn 18, which spurred Nederan to reach out to her about retiring his so-called rulership of Tillek. In the summer of Turn 18, pregnant, she and Nederan had the lynch pin for him to give Tillek back to her. In month 9, he left for a seahold given to him as part of the deal for him to leave, and she and Potipher were confirmed as Lord and Lady Tillek in month 10. Their son, Thedrin, was born in the spring of Turn 19.

For some turns, Edeline and Potipher were the picture of a perfect couple, co-parenting his daughters and their own son. Alas, tragedy struck in Turn 27, when Thedrin went missing-- eventually to be confirmed as deceased when the decomposing body of a young child was found in a shipwreck in early Turn 28. Blame fell on the Weyr, for failing to recover him. Edeline's grief was long and hard, and only somewhat ameliorated by her second pregnancy, which produced a daughter, Isla, in Turn 29.

Despite her own experiences, Edeline preferred a male heir, and eventually invited her cousin, Ennegan, to spend some time at Tillek; it was widely assumed that she would eventually make him her heir, cutting her own daughter out of the succession. /That/ plan was abandoned, forcibly, when Ennegan was Impressed from within the galleries during the hatching of High Reaches' double clutch of Turn 31.

To say that Edeline is ill-pleased with High Reaches is an understatement.

As of mid-Turn 34, Edeline is fostering Eustan, Ienavi of Crom's son from her first marriage. Rumor has it she intends the boy to marry her daughter, Isla.
