Jisene
Name: Jisene
Pronunciation: GIsene
Age: 18
Season Born In: Summer
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Appearance:
Tall, with long blonde hair and natural brown highlights, Jisene has blue eyes that are very light in shade. She refuses to wear a dress or skirt, instead wearing trousers and a shirt for her work around her parents' farm. These clothes often become dirty from her work, but she keeps several spare outfits and cleans the dirty ones the first chance she gets.
She keeps her hair in a braid that runs down her back, stopping just below her bottom. When undone, her hair reaches even further down, stopping about mid-thigh. She rarely takes it down, though, preferring to keep it up so that it stays out of the way.
Personality:
Jisene is incredibly stubborn, and will only listen to the orders of someone whom she respects, such as her parents. Despite this stubborn streak, however, Jisene is known to be very kind towards other people, even if she can be rather blunt at times.
Jisene loves animals, and has often found that they love her in return-she often wakes in the morning to find her bed-and her-covered in various different cats and dogs from the surrounding area.
So far, Jisene has refused to marry, as she point blank just does not like any of the men who live in the area around her farm. Because of this, her parents have given up talking to her about it, as she simply gets up and walks away into the surrounding woods.
Family: Her father, J'sen, is a farmer who prides in his produce, while her mother, Cien, (pronounced SIen) is a well-known cook and weaver in the area. Jisene has no siblings, and no close relatives, as her grandparents died when she was young.
Location: Trelis
Rank: Dragon
History:
When Jisene was born, her mother had a very hard time giving birth to her. She would have had a twin brother, but he was stillborn, and because of how the birth went Cien was rendered infertile.
Because of this, Jisene was doted on by her parents, but not to the point where she was spoiled. Instead, they made certain that she grew up doing just as much work as they did. Jisene grew up caring for the crops and animals on J'sen's farm, and when she had the chance, she went out into the forest every chance she got.
Now in her teens, Jisene refused to accept that she had to marry, and every time her parents tried to bring it up would run to the forest and hide in a glen that she found when she was young. Here she had built her own little house in a cave there, and she would stay there for a few days before returning home.
Not wanting to send her running off again, her parents would capitulate for a couple of months, only to have the process repeat itself again.
However, the suitors would still visit, despite Jisene's repeated attempts to see them off, until, finally, she turned round and told all of them at once that she would never accept such an 'addle-brained bunch of fools' (as she called them) for her suitors.
This succeeded in creating the desired effect, and the men never returned to see her.
In her late teens, Jisene's farm was visited by some traveling dragons and their riders, who were stunned when the dragons allowed her to approach them and look them over as if it was an everyday occurrence.
After 'searching' Jisene to see if she was a possible candidate, they left to inform their Senior Weyrwoman, Noraali, of the possible candidate they had found.
