Physical Description of Persona:
Sylvian is absolutely tiny…tiny figure, small, delicate face. Her hair is a mane of brown, almost auburn curls, she can’t be bothered to control it and lets it spill down her back and all over, really. She has the face of a child’s doll. Her eyes are very dark brown and large, her mouth is tiny with a Cupid’s bow. She has an alabaster completion and tiny, delicate hands. She dresses in very feminine clothes, being a great lover of laces and and muslins and silks and is very interested in different fabrics. Her overall impression is that of a proper, delicate lady of a Hold.

Emotional Description of Persona:
As we all know, looks can be deceiving. In Sylvian’s case, it is absolutely true. She is a massive tomboy and will do anything to hunt out a rare herb, even if that means climbing through a flock of wild wherries and felines, up a cliff and through a jungle, she will get it. As much as she loves her pretty clothes she has an annoying habit of getting them ripped and torn. She has a sharp tongue and pulls no punches. She can be cranky…actually this should read…she can be nice…More times than not she is short tempered, cranky and her default mood is to be out of sorts.

Good luck everyone.

History of Persona:
Sylvian is a child of a Crafter and was raised at the Vintner Hall. Her mother is a Hall resident and her father a master Vintner, Viander. She has two older brothers. Her upbringing has been a happy one. With older brothers she had to be a tomboy to keep up, something she did very well. She was going to join the Hall as an apprentice but has always been much more interested in herbs.

A chance at the gold eggs on the Sands of Dragonsfall was the escape she was looking for. After keeping her head down and attending the candidate lessons, a happy Sylvian left the hatched dragons and went straight to the Healers, to apprentice there. Currently she splits her time between morning lessons with the Weyrlingmasters and afternoons learning the healingcraft.
