Physical Description of Persona:
Eirlira is of average height, but her posture lends to the illusion that she is taller than what she truly is. She walks with a sultry grace, her limbs sinewy and long and with a distinct sway to her hips. Her long honey blonde curls fall down her waist; she dislikes tying it back, preferring it to be in a rowdy mane. Dark brown eyes and full lips complete the alluring ensemble of her looks.

Emotional Description of Persona:
A young woman with a distinctly strong personality, Eirlira knows what she wants and will use what she must to get it. She will not allow anyone to stand in her way. Strong willed, proud, arrogant and outwardly seductive, she is not above using feminine wiles to get whatever she may desire. Behind her seductive smile lies a cunning, manipulative mind, a vicious temper and a vindictive mindset; for those she encounters she is far more concerned with what they can do for her rather than what she can do for them. She is a talented actress and isn't above playing a part to get what she wants; if a man wants an innocent, she can play that, if he wants demure, she can do that as well. Unfortunately for many, Eirlira holds grudges. She may not strike back at a percieved slight immediately, but her vindictiveness will eventually emerge. Her retribution can be cruel, but due to the fact that she will wait until a person's back is turned, she has never been caught.

She has a distinct holdbased distaste for same sex pairings, finding them disgusting, which will not serve her well in the Weyr. She's is outspoken about this distaste and has already scorned a few possible friendships for just that reason.

Deeply seated in her psyche is a desire for control, control over her own life and the lives of others. She wants what she never has had: power to shape her own destiny the way she wants it.

History of Persona:
Born into poverty at Sunstone Seahold, Eirlira was the daughter of a fisherman who was more concerned with drink than with his family. Her mother died young; Eirlira doesn't remember her. Her father wasn't much of a parent and Eirlira had to grow up early in order to care for her younger brother and the meager household. She never ceased to resent her father for his lack of care and the burden placed upon her.

As she grew older, she noticed that men began to pay attention to her. Some said it was her eyes, some said it was her wild hair, but all gave her attention that she had never had. She used it and soon discovered that she could get them to do things and give things to her that she wouldn't have been able to otherwise. Innocence, she decided, was for those who could afford it.

It was after her father was told repeated rumors of his daughter's activities that he attempted to rein her in, but in the worst possible way. Determined to salvage what he could, he decided to marry the young woman off to a much older, stern dock worker. Nothing Eirlira did could divert her father's attention from his plan, so Eirlira did the only thing she could think of. She ran and sought refuge at River Bluff Weyr.

Immediately on her arrival, she petitioned the Weyrwoman to be allowed to stand for Impression. After all, who else had more power than a dragonrider?
