PLAY-BY: Artbreeder
FULL APPEARANCE:
Tataru is not the shortest in the world, but she is certainly on the smaller spectrum. Despite not being stacked highly in height, she is a robust young woman, filling out a figure, though her smaller breasts make it harder to tell she even has them and she often wears clothing that makes it even less obvious, though this is for reasons of comfort, and sometimes practicality.
Her eyes are big and soulful, often full of warmth and deep almost olive green and framed by long lashes. Her hair in contrast is a very pale strawberry blond and falls to her mid back, though often is either in a high horsetail or tucked under her favorite cap while she is working. She wears simple clothing, though if she can afford it, there is always a splash of rose pink in her wardrobe.
PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY:
Tataru is a very stubborn and determined young woman. Nothing to her in her life seems unattainable and nothing is impossible if one is willing to work hard enough for it. This the mindset she has carried all her life and her strong drive to succeed no matter what she had to give of herself has served her well enough so far.
She has a (mostly) kind heart and is not faint or bothered by dealing with blood and the gore of injuries, her desire to save lives overrides any unease she might feel in such. While she has plenty of good traits and a mostly noble mindset.. she has some undesirable qualities as well.
In her dogged determination to reach a desired outcome, she is not above manipulation or gentle "persuasion" to accomplish a task. She also can and will blackmail another individual to obtain things she wants, without regard for the consequences or the pain she might leave in their wake. As long as she succeeds, that is the important thing.

BIRTHPLACE: Telgar Weyr
HISTORY:
Tataru was the youngest child and only daughter born to two tailor parents. Unlike most of her family, as she grew, she stayed almost petite, unlike her rather tall brothers and parents. She never let this bother her as from a young age, she loved to try to play healer to little bugs creatures and when she would scrape herself, she would want to treat it, often taken to watching healers working. It was this desire that led her to enter into Healer training when of age.
This kept her content for several years and despite radical changes in politics and such, she didn't get involved any more than a Healer was required to. But as she reached Journeyman status, she began to feel a bit.. restless. By this time, her brothers had both become a Rider and the other a Wherhandler and she found herself intrigued at the idea of the Wher in particular.
So she made a choice.. she left her training and applied for wher candidacy at Telgar, where her brothers also had done so. She stood for a turn before her chance came when a wher mother rolled an egg to her and she met eyes with a very curious but wild little green. Wherlinghood was definitely a challenge but given her stubborn determination and utter love of her little Tarusk, she persevered and when it came time to graduate, she pondered where to go from there.
Joining the healer wing seemed a natural choice and this is where she decided to remain for a time. But when Semaca became an option and the need for Healers was keen, she jumped and applied to transfer as soon as she was able. She was fortunate however to be able to sneak by just before any real rules about transfer got a bit more rigid. She joined a Healer wing, as she had in the past, and the petite redhead settled in decently well, quietly biding her time.
She enjoys having a place in life and a purpose. People tend to be less tightlipped to those treating their wounds.. which can leave one with.. interesting information that could be used later to one's advantage. But she would never do anything nefarious with that.. now would she?
