WYSK
Vashelle grew up in a small cothold north of Fort and moved to the Great Big Weyr when she was sixteen, for various personal reasons she generally keeps to herself. In fact, she keeps a /lot/ to herself. She's not reclusive, but she tends to be socially awkward, and she knows it. This just makes her clam up even more. Vash tends to say things now and then that are barely connected to the conversation at hand, and at times she ends up downright insulting, though she's usually oblivious to that fact.
The one place Vashelle seems comfortable and even outgoing is among the runners. She got a job as a stablehand almost immediately upon coming to the Weyr, and that's been her life ever since. Where words continue to fail her, actions do not. She has a certain degree of intuition that works well with runners, and likely other animals, too. Possibly even animals of the Pernese variety.
Description
Everything about Vash is varying shades of brown, with almond-shaped eyes and shoulder-length hair that falls in loose waves, both the color of deep mahogany, and smooth skin a shade of lightly creamed klah. Her face is rounded, and her lips full and just a little pouty. Her nose, while not overly large, still manages to be somewhat prominent, its arch standing out to merge with delicate brows of charred oak. She is still young, but not as young as she looks; she will likely not begin to show her age for some time. Her frame of middling height rounds to about 5'8", but there is very little meat on those bones aside from some steady toning around the arms and shoulders.
History
Vash (formerly Vashelle) grew up at a cothold northwest of Fort Weyr, almost midway between Fort and High Reaches. Her family (along with most of the others in the cothold) helped raise some of the sturdy little runner stock favoured by the mountain-going traders and the like. Her parents are both originally from the Telgar area (father from the Hold, mother from the Weyr), and Vash was actually born at Telgar Hold, but they moved to the cothold when she was very young.
While Vash's father thought she might have the aptitude for the Smiths, her mother was intent on matchmaking Vashelle with the son of a friend from Telgar. In an effort to avoid both pressures, Vash went her own way instead and traveled with a group of Traders that had been passing through.
Around the age of sixteen, Vashelle put up camp with the Traders outside Fort Weyr. Tired of traveling, she decided to seek work at the Weyr and began tending the Weyr's stables and fields. She was later asked to stand, and impressed to green Ihvaiyth.
During her weyrlinghood, both Vash and Ihvaiyth were injured during a barracks collapse. Vash's leg was broken and took well over half a Turn to fully heal, and while Ihvaiyth's injuries were less severe, their development during weyrlinghood was highly stunted. Vash did her best to catch up, then keep up, but it was a struggle.
That said, neither dragon nor rider seemed to exhibit any of the psychological effects that might be expected from such an event, especially considering the loss of one of their own during the collapse. Perhaps the same weirdness in Vash's psyche that makes other parts of life difficult made this particular one easier.
After weyrlinghood, Vash and Ihvaiyth joined Flint Wing, though only briefly. When time came for a new clutch to be herded through weyrlinghood, Weyrlingmaster Ebeny asked Vash if she would like to try her hand as an assistant. Perhaps it was thought that the greenrider's odd way of thinking, along with her own rough experiences during her weyrlinghood, might help her assist the new riders coming through weyrlinghood. It must have helped at least a little bit, because she remained an assistant weyrlingmaster until Month 9 in Turn 38.
