Aishani

Description

Long shiny chestnut hair is worn loose, in easy curls that frame Aishani's heart-shaped face and tumble down past her shoulders artfully. The same brown tones as her tresses lightly warm her tan skin, color long-lashed dark chocolate eyes, and shade graceful brows. Cupid's-bow lips curve into a smile often and easily, if sometimes enigmatically. Tall and slender, she has the lean lines and long toughened fingers of a young woman accustomed to working with her hands. She dresses to emphasize long legs and minimal curves - most usually in close-fitting trousers or leathers, short skirts, high boots, and stylish tops in light, bright colors to match. She rarely wears a knot, but for the one on her wine-dark riding jacket - that of a weyrwoman with High Reaches' colors.

Background

Brieli came to the weyr and claimed her father was a miner, her mother was a seamstress. Her father died in a mining accident - a fairly common occurrence at Crom; her mother raised her until she was about sixteen, when a bad cold worsened one winter. She'd learned most of her trade from her mother already, and picked up a few more skills from helping out where she could - enough skills to make her restless, especially with no ties to keep her near the mines. It wasn't much more than a month after her eighteenth turnday before she left to start over at High Reaches.

At least, that's what she said.

Turns out she's actually Aishani Vijay, daughter of Rajiv, bent on revenge for his execution. Now she runs the Weyr. Isn't that great?!

WYSK

Aishani was known as 'Brieli' at High Reaches until the spring of Turn 31.
She is really the daughter of Rajiv Vijay, executed at HRW in Turn 19.
Early in Turn 31, she reportedly named herself Acting Weyrwoman.
She Impressed gold Iesaryth at Monaco Weyr at the end of Turn 28.
She spent her time with Azaylia in the past, more with Jo and Vienne now.
Dark in humor and in outlook, she's still relatively sociable and informal.
Fort's Vhaeryth and his rider visit Iesaryth's ledge regularly...
Despite the rumors she tried to fix Iesaryth's maiden flight in their favor.

Relationships

Alida - There's commonalities. Needs to learn control.

Azaylia - Always too kind, too nice. I tried to tell you I wasn't a good person from the start.

Barnabas - Blunting a weapon doesn't make it harmless. But... seems nice enough. It's just weird, crashing on her couch.

C'wlin - Potentially useful. Ambitious, maybe still. Bright enough.

D'kan - Observant, smart. Allies, especially now, are appreciated.

E'sren - It's nice to have someone around who grew up the same sort of way... and actually feels badly about the past.

H'kon - Seriously? F*ck that guy. Won't even defend himself.

I'kris - A death that will be carried for a long time, with too many echoes in the past. And it's not the same.

Iolene - Gone too soon, and whose fault is that? I wish you'd come to me sooner.

Jo - If anyone could truly understand, it's her. Possibly the beginning of a profitable partnership. I'm glad we could come to trust one another.

K'del - Weak. Given quarter, but never forgiven. There's no way to pay your debt.

K'zin - He doesn't know what he wants to be. If he doesn't decide, he'll be his dragon's creature entirely.

Leova - Admirable. Too smart and observant to ignore or be entirely comfortable around. Probably was there; not sure how to deal with that.

Liv - Up to something. Maybe nothing important. (Maybe paranoia.)

Madilla - It's good to have someone so inherently trustworthy as Weyrhealer. She could be so dangerous.

N'ky - Harmless.

N'rov - Strength and weakness, the best thing that's happened, outside of Iesaryth.

Quinlys - She's doing a good job. I'm glad she got the chance; like most people, she does deserve one.

R'hin - Not to be trusted, hiding something. But if he knows something now, does it matter?

Sabella - Another of the Crom lot, seems bright so far. They should be.

Taikrin - Maybe not as straightforward and upfront as expected, but an excellent ally. We understand each other surprisingly well.

Telavi - Smart girl. If she's one of Jo's pickups, ought to be interesting.

Vienne - Pays attention to the meaning of conversation, and a little too neutral - but it's nice to have someone to talk to.

Z'ian - Initiative is a good thing in a person, though it's difficult to sort out how to handle it. But if Jo says he's okay...

Soundtrack

I Love It - Icona Pop

You're on a different road, I'm in the milky way
You want me down on earth, but I am up in space
You're so damn hard to please, we gotta kill this switch
You're from the 70's, but I'm a 90's bitch

Freedom '90 - George Michael

I think there's something you should know/I think it's time I stopped the show
There's something deep inside of me/There's someone I forgot to be
Take back your picture in a frame/Take back your singing in the rain
I just hope you understand/Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don't belong to you
And you don't belong to me

Seven Devils - Florence and the Machine

I don't want your money,
I don't want your crown,
See I've come to burn,
Your kingdom down.

Headlines - Drake

I might be too strung out on compliments
Overdosed on confidence
Started not to give a fuck and stopped fearing the consequence
Drinking every night because we drink to my accomplishments
Faded way too long, I'm floatin' in and out of consciousness

She says they miss the old Drake, girl don't tempt me
If they don't get it, they'll be over you
That new shit that you got is overdue
You better do what you suppose to do
I'm like why I gotta be all that but still I can't deny the fact that it's true

S&M - Rihanna

'Cause I may be bad, but I'm perfectly good at it.

God's Gonna Cut You Down - Johnny Cash

Well, you may throw your rock and hide your hand,
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man,
But as sure as God made black and white,
What's done in the dark will be brought to the light.

Sweet Dreams - Beyonce

You can be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Either way I, don't wanna wake up from you
Sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Somebody pinch me, your love's to good to be true
My guilty pleasure I ain't goin' nowhere
Baby, long as you're here
I'll be floating on air cause you're my, you're my....
You can be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Either way I, don't wanna wake up from you
