Description

Thin, blonde and leggy, Teris is perfectly willing to let other people enjoy these attributes. From a distance. She's attractive enough by most standards, face still holding a certain youthful roundness in the cheeks, nose perhaps a little angular by comparison. Her long blonde hair is often kept either down or pulled up haphazzardly to keep it out of the way. Pale blue gray eyes tend toward a focused intensity, distant but intelligent and slightly emphasized by a line of kohl.

Overall her clothes are practical. Her pants are fitted, an undershirt usually worn under a looser shirt that buttons up the front, sleeves rolled up to the elbows depending on the weather. The only thing resembling jewelry that she wears is a cord of leather wrapped several times around one wrist that tends to hold keys or other small things with convenient holes in them.

WYSK

• Before being Searched by Z'yi's Isforaith late in turn 21, Teris was a personal assistant to senior Weyrwoman Tiriana after working for turns as a storeroom attendant. She impressed to gold Iskiveth on day 13 of month 4, turn 22, the third anniversary of the late Weyrwoman Satiet's death.

• Teris is smart, focused and has a bit of a reputation for being a cold bitch. She has workaholic tendencies but mostly when it comes to paper pushing. She tries, really she does, but physical labor and Teris don't get along quite so well.

• Daughter of brownrider B'mel and greenrider Tamaris of High Reaches Weyr. She's the only full-blooded sibling of greenrider B'tal.

• Turnday: D25, M3

History

Teris was born at High Reaches Weyr but her father, B'mel, had her sent to foster at Crom Hold, where he's originally from, not long after she was born. She was raised there until she was old enough to demand loudly enough that she be returned to the Weyr. She was Searched for the first eggs that were clutched after she came of age but left on the sands and with an angry father, she didn't Stand again after that. Ambition never served her very well at a younger age but at this point there's not really anywhere else she'd rather be than where she is now.

Relationships

• Teris has very few people she would consider herself friends with. Her relationship with Tiriana is more professional than personal but not entirely one or the other. K'del might possibly be the closest thing she has to a real friend despite the fact that she wouldn't admit it and tends to avoid him.

• She was always close to her brother B'tal but now that he's much more involved with his weyrmate, his dragon and his own life in general, they've been drifting apart. She's still protective of him and she'll probably never approve of his poor choice in significant others but she's learning to accept the fact that he's a big boy.

• Despite his past relationship with her brother, Teris and Z'yi have... something going on there. It's difficult to say what but there have been very rare instances of public affection and much more common instances of the complete opposite.

Rumors

• She's been intimately, if not romantically, involved with Weyrleader K'del and has threatened violence against Headwoman Milani in some relation to this.

• She prefers the company of women.

• The only reason she's not a convict is that she hasn't been caught yet.
