HISTORY:
Born at Ista, Rachel was a quiet child, a little too awkward to make many friends her age. She clung to the adults in the creche instead, one of whom was her mother, who she had a wonderful relationship with. Her mother made sure she had a connection with both her and her father, who was a chef in the weyr.
As Rachel got older, she found that she was most comfortable doing exactly as she had always seen her mother doing - working with the children in the weyr. It seemed a natural progression for her to do so, and working alongside her mother made her the happiest she’d ever been. The minute she started thinking about the prospect of having children, she sought out a flit egg instead - sure, she loved children, but that was a bit much for her. Everything was perfect. She had her family, her days were occupied with taking care of her flit, Geissler, and the weyrlings, and she felt absolutely fulfilled. In Rachel’s early 20’s, though, the wonderful situation she was in was interrupted as her mother passed away, leaving Rachel and her father both feeling a big gap where she used to be.
The loss of her mother hit Rachel hard. Her father finally gave her a gentle shove towards leaving and finding something new to take up her time that perhaps wouldn’t remind her so much of her mother. Rachel decided that she would become a wher candidate and bonded with Chelsk when she was 28.
After graduating from wherlinghood, Rachel did wherhandler duties at Ista for a few years. She still spent time with her father as much as she could, as she wanted to keep her relationship with him as strong as possible. However, she had lived at Ista for a very long time, and she realised after a while that what she really needed was a change of scenery. She bid her father goodbye, promising to write (a promise she would keep, no matter what) and headed to Semaca, where she has been fulfilling wherhandler duties for the past two years.
