Name: Rhysati
Age: 17
Birthingday: Month 6 Day 7
Birthplace: Southern Boll Hold
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Location: EvenStar Hold

Emotional Description:

Rhysati is one of those people made better by hardship. Able to put aside her fear and focus on the task she sets her mind to makes her good in a pinch. Soft-spoken, she follows the orders given to her like any good drudge/workhand.
               
The real Rhysati is not to be taken lightly. She is willing to stand back and let another lead, but she is by no means passive or unwilling to take an active role.
               
Still managing to be idealistic despite hardships, Rhysati takes comfort from the beauty of nature. She's content to sit and stare at the outside to find peace in her life.
               
Her clever and analytical mind is what she relies on in order to survive. She tends to think over what she says now, as a verbal misstep could doom her, however she used to speak her mind impulsively.

Physical Description:

Rhysati is 5'5 and under 120 pounds. She is very feminine of face, with small nose and small lips. Her hair is a sandy blonde, her eyes a dark brown. Her skin is  light and unblemished.
              
Her body is wiry but strong, capable of absorbing many punishing tasks. She has the light build of a runner jockey coupled with strength enough to control one.
              
She carries herself nobly when no one else can see, but when in the guise of a drudge she affects a slump and a shuffling gait. When pretending to be a workhand she is slightly slouched and that is all.

Brief History:

Rhysati was born to the Lord and Lady Holders of Southern Boll. She was the last born of several children, and the only female. As a youngster she was taught to ride before she turned 5.
             
Disaster struck while Rhys was only 10. In a coup by her displaced uncle, her parents were slaughtered and her brothers killed. Young Rhys was tending the runnerbeasts with a cousin in a far off pasture and never knew until it was too late.
             
She was disguised as a runner handler's daughter. Because of that she was relegated to a life of drudgery. Unable to bear the desecration of her home, she spent all her time in the stables.
             
Having a natural ability with runnerbeasts, the runner handler trained Rhys as well as he could. She became his assistant and learned everything about runners. At 15 she entered as a jockey.
             
She managed to win several races. The most notable win occurred in a large race, and the Southern Boll holders insisted they meet the jockey. Rhys took the prize stallion she'd raced and her customary mare and fled the Hold. She was only 16.
             
It took her almost a Turn to make her way across Pern. She had to sell the mare after the strain of managing two beasts became too much. She would never sell the stallion, she swore, as he was of her father's breeding.
             
As she made her way, she dreamed of how one day she could come back to a Southern Boll that would be hers, even though she knew it was impossible. As she came to the eastern shores of Pern, though, she decided to start over and gain allies first.
             
Changing her name to Ynr (yuh-neer), which was a name her father used to call her, she paid for passage to Evenstar Hold, bringing her stallion with her. She would pass as a runner handler and use the stallion as leverage to get a job, she hoped. It would be the best way to survive.
