WYSK
Daughter of Hattie and some Master Smith who's never been around.
Twin (or not) to Mimi, whom she often argued with, yet was inseparable from.
Quiet, bookish and well-read, though not quick to share her intelligence.
Works as a recordskeeper and scribe.
Description
She's not got much of a figure yet, though the promise of height lies in legs that are a little too long for her frame as she enters the gangly phase of youth. There's not much of her at all, yet she's slim rather than skinny, not quite free of the softness of childhood, and not yet able to boast the curves of womanhood. Large, dark eyes define an oval-shaped face, her cheekbones high and brows subtly arched. Her slim nose could still stand to be a touch smaller, and one might think her lips too generous, but she's the smooth and soft complexion one might wish for, her skin a bronzed shade of butterscotch.
Day to day, she favours blouses paired with long skirts, wide belts used to help create some illusion of a figure more grown-up than that she currently possesses. Sturdy boots sit secure on her feet, made for practical purposes rather than for show. Bangles, earrings and other jewellery change day to day, save for the little silver dragon pendant that lies level with her collarbone.
History
The day after Tabitha was born to Weyrwoman Hattie and then Journeyman Smith Brayden, she acquired a twin sister, who, in-fact, was obviously not her sister, but her cousin. This might have been obvious to anyone but Tabitha, who grew up believing that the twin so unlike herself in looks and temperament was hers to advise and guide and stay near to, lest she get herself into trouble. She was a placid, quiet child, who, between one familial and political issue and another, found herself raised between Fort Weyr, Ista Weyr, Ruatha River Hold and Southern Telgar. Of the siblings she was of an age with, she was perhaps the most biddable, though of herself, Gethin and Mimi, it was only the last who ever seemed to cause any real trouble.
When the time came for her to decide on an occupation to pay her way, she chose to train as a recordskeeper and scribe, a job that would keep her close to home and to her family. Having already lost Gethin to the Starcraft a turn before, she was quietly upset when Mimi chose to return to Ruatha River and apprentice to the Headwoman, but rather than kick up a fuss, she threw herself into her work. Having haunted the records for turns already, hours and hours spent with the books and scrolls, always absorbing what stories and history she could, the transition was not such a difficult one, though with her closest siblings gone and her others having both mother and father in their lives, she was rather more out on her own than she had been prepared to be. Though she has never felt that she needed a father, the idea that hers isn't around still rankles somewhat. She has no idea that the dragon pendant she wears is of silver repurposed from the gift her father left her toddling self when he chose his craft over her.
With a gold dragon for a second mother, it cannot be said that she doesn't indulge in the occasional fantasy of Impressing, even if her dragon is never quite in colour, but, for now, she's content with her lot, and pleased with the quiet and structure that her job affords her. It would only be better if she could just stay and read all day without doing any work at all. Well, and if she could have her siblings back.
