Description of Persona: Physically...she's got a very nice and curvy figure. But she doesn't care. In fact, she couldn't care less. She's got vibrant blue eyes that have some gray tint to them, but that's only visible in certain lights. Her hair is dark and wavy and it frames her face very nicely. Her lips are a bit thin, but she has high, arcing eyebrows and seems to always be thinking about something. It's obvious she's in good shape, and she's athletic. Sometimes she wishes she became a dolphineer instead because she adores the sea and swimming. But for some reason...leatherworking just seemed more attractive to her.
Mentally...somewhat odd. She tends to talk out loud at times. She asks questions and answers them herself before anyone else can get a word in. She likes to go off sometimes, and tends to get horridly off subject. Other than that, she's pleasant, if not a bit forgetful. And no...she's not Ditzy. She's a smart young woman, and has a sense of humor and a sharp tongue when called for. And her wit...well, don't get into a verbal spar with Dhandra!

Brief History of Persona: Well, she was born at some remote hold. What one escapes her because her foster mother took her to the local Weyrhold at an early age. She knows that her mother and father were both crafters. Her foster mother said that her mother was a Master Smith and her father was going for his mastery in the Healer craft. And because they were so busy, she was fostered out. It came time for her to leave her foster mother's grip and run wild.
And she did a good job of it! She was a classical weyrbrat. She was typically found in the band led by a cousin on her mother's side. A young man who was thinking about apprenticing as a smith, a Starsmith to be exact. But Dhandra didn't care. She was almost Bravan's second in command up until the time he was recruited to the hall.
So she took command for about a turn before she too was apprenticed at the Tanner Crafthall in the North. During her apprenticeship the only thing she could think about was returning back to the warm tropics she loved and remembered. She waited six long turns before she made it to the Journeywoman level.
As soon as she walked the tables, Dhandra went back south. She's only recently returned to her home, since she's been a Journeywoman for a little under three months now. She's adjusting to Weyrlife very well...and is more than happy to admire dragons from afar. She also has more than a few surprises in store and a few faces from the past as well.
The main surprise that came to her while revisiting the South, was that she could hear dragons. She knows not why she didn't hear them as a child, but she figured that since the Northern continent was such a barren, and dragonless place, she didn't realize that those small voices _were_ dragons.
Pet Description:KusikuHe's a flirty brown whose hide resembles that of sun-baked sand. His wings are a bit wide, and his neck is long and graceful. He chitteres quite a bit, and seemes to try to carry on conversations with everyone around him.
Teysi He's a shy guy, but manages to steal the attention of many a green firelizard. He's perfectly proportioned, but his eyes are a bit large for his head. He's quiet and likes to sleep alot. His hide is the color of the night sky right before darkness overcomes Pern.
