WYSK
Pronounced Ke-si
Most of her history goes untold, but it is known that she traveled a great deal
Was an apprentice of HealerCraft transferred to HRW as part of a program to improve Weyr-Hall relations. Most skilled in emergency care.
Talented in fighting, but the basis of which seems to be a mixture of regional methods.
Searched by N'qui&Trevisath for Niahvth and Reisoth's clutch, at which she Impressed to brown Neianth
Intensely serious, and seriously intense, she's overly ambitious and often complicated by her own thoughts
Description =
While her body seems slender and lithe, runner's leg muscles and a sparrer's arms add a little 'something' to her contour which would otherwise seem relatively plain and flat, fitting of one so stern. The palms of her hands and the soles of her feet are rough and calloused, and bruises can be spotted here and there upon rather pale skin that has seen far more snow and mountains than sun-lit beach. There are two heavy scars that mar her form- one between her shoulder blades, the other over her right bicep. Numerous lighter scars trek down her forearms, hands and legs and appear wholly superficial and of varying age.
Reaching an average height of about 5'7", her stature really does not scream much of a domineering personality. However, her well-sculpted hardly hued face appears naturally stuck and rigid in the same exact non-expression. Set, critical eyes that are so light blue they appear silver-grey stare out of heavily lashed lids. Dark brown hair that varies between looking almost black in dim light to shinning golden-brown in bright had at once been cut short, but has started to gain some length to it as time has passed, regaining some of the natural curls of it. However, much more often than demonstrating what might be pretty, it's collected in a tight bun on the back of her head.
A tan tunic is modified into a heavy wrap-around top with a thick black boarder, combined at the waist with a wide belly-wrap. The white half-sleeves at the shoulders and central wrap are lined by a furred trimming. The flight jacket that often covers it is a deep almost-black that has seen its share of days, worn in spots but still functional. Her pants are a sandy off-white, tough material with heavier patches at the knees. Arms from elbow to mid-fingers are wrapped with 1" strips of cloth beneath heavy leather forearm guards that are long enough to cover the back of her hands. A particularly well-made belt knife sits at her lower back, and may not be the only piece of steel on her. A dragonrider's knot is fastened to her shoulder only while within the Weyr proper, intertwined with the hues of High Reaches and the brown of her lifemate.

Keysi is of Tillek Hold birth, given a Smith-trained journeywoman mother and a father of much more questionable means who bided by the title of trader. But what /did/ he trade? He never shared that information. Her father was one of many vices- from drinking and gambling to underhanded dealings that left her mother in a sticky situation when his ways were questioned. Eventually, the man was all but exiled- unofficially asked to leave when Keysi had just turned 3 turns old. From there, they traveled with different caravans, seeking to transplant themselves into Hold or Hall that needed a Smith's works, and found nobody accepting of them as whispers of her fathers dealings seemed to precede him. Could it be anything but a set up? Black mail?
Their caravan was intermittently intercepted in-route of wherever her mother could find work, or her father had a meeting to sell his 'goods'. With Keysi always in a relatively dangerous situation just on the outskirts of her father's dealings, her mother spent her extra marks on training for the young girl- with guards, with vagabonds, with people who were probably convicts but would do anything for payment.
Once old enough, her mother sought help from the safety that was a crafthall. She fronted an apprenticeship for Keysi in Healing. Despite a rebellious teenage start, craftmasters and the young journeywoman Tess, both grounded her mind and continued physical training in order to help her find balance. She hid herself beneath her studies, using focus and drive as a wall. She spent three long studious turns at the HealerHall at Fort. The external threats lessened as time went on.
The movement for improving Weyr-Hall relations following the reluctance(?) of healers to assistant in situation with the goldrider Teris and the subsequent outcries following it, became an opportunity to further her safety and her Healership, appreciated more by her superiors than herself. At a little over 16 turns, she was posted as an apprentice at High Reaches Weyr, M12D29T36.
Just short of reaching her senior apprenticeship, she was caught up in the politics of High Reaches as a transfer of Irianke and her gold lead to an appropriate, if strained, agreement to send green and blue weyrlings to Igen as trade for use of their Queen and her clutch. An argument with the yet-unmet Weyrlingmaster Quinlys in regards to the fairness of losing Reaches-Hatched dragons led to being Searched (out of amusement?) by her brother N'qui and his Trevisath.
During her candidacy, Keysi's inability to socialize, drink, or dabble in any sort of relationship was highlighted but rarely questioned. Following an explosion of unknown origin, Dragonhealer Leova, Bluerider Ghena, Alpine's wingsecond H'kon, the weyrwoman's assistant Lycinea and Keysi became trapped in a small segment of collapsed inner cavern tunnel. They were rescued some 14 days later (M6D19T36), Keysi having broken multiple ribs along with a multitude of lacerations after trying to act the hero at the time of the collapse. Not 24 hours later, an attempt to raise moral with an Igen-style Bazaar for the candidates leads to the death of High Reaches' weyrwoman, Azaylia. Unable to help left Keysi stricken, and even more reserved, unwilling to admit to the troubles the events had left her.
Nearly healed by time of hatching, Keysi Impresses to Mysteries of Harmony Brown Neianth of Niavhth and Reisoth's clutch M7T36, not a day after getting into a near-fight with Reisoth's rider. Weyrlinghood proved a time of growth and inner reflection, of self-question and loyalty evaluation. She realized she's been running, hiding. It's after graduation, when she's tapped into Savannah with R'hin that she turns to face her demons.
Blue Shen
Square-jawed, barrel-chested, and compact of torso, this prodigious blue is all lines and angles, his neck ridges jagged-looking, eye-ridges prominent. Grandiose wings are a surprising shade of glacial blue that eddies into snow-devils of chill indigo upon wingsails' trailing edges. The bulk of his hide is a frenzied, chaotic winterscape of every shade and tint of an arctic storm; gelid gusts of pale sapphire rushing from shorter neck and down shoulders over his back, while random stipples of whitish-blue suggest ice and snow upon flanks. Frozen-seeming claws of an indigo so pale as to appear white suggest the pristine, latent threat of icicles... perhaps echoed by the rather aggressive cant of short headknobs and his rather bold posture.

- Name: Chinese Medicine considers Shen to be one of the "three treasures" that constitute life: Jing, the essence; Qi, the life force; and Shen, the spirit.
- Inspiration: From Greek mythology's Boreas (Aquilo), the North Wind. The bringer of winter, the devourer, coming down from the north to chill the air relentlessly with his icy breath. He was personified as purple-winged, very strong, and with a violent temper.
- Alida respect "More than simply a friend of a friend, important in your own way."
- Edyis drifting "I still consider you my friend. But I'm changing. Don't forget about me while I figure all this out."
- Farideh work in progress "You can do this. For better or for worse, I'm here to help you."
- Faryn smart "You match words with me just fine. But only you can figure out who you want to be."
- H'vier frustrating "He makes it very hard to respect authority."
- K'del idol "You've been there. I will do absolutely everything necessary for you. For the Weyr. I will not let you down."
- K'zin observant "Once, I thought you were just an empty-headed prettyboy. But you spoke my language, you changed everything in my weyrlinghood, diverting a destructive path."
- Lycinea emergency-besties "I know you were hurt, but I'm just not sure how deeply."
- Madilla master "You were once what I aspired to be. Now you ask more than I think I can give. But you provide a challenge, and I- we- will meet it."
- Quinlys passionate "I don't think we'll ever see eye to eye, and it frustrates me that I can't appreciate your passion."
- R'van trouble-starter "We certainly don't agree. But I will try to find something to respect."
- R'hin catalyst "It took me time to trust you. You broke every rule, but you opened every door. I will be more. You didn't choose wrong."
