PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY:
E'cho is very sweet and gentle, caring and loving to everyone she meets, albeit a little shy. No, she's not one who dives into conversation and holds her own; rather the opposite. Distinctly withdrawn due to sheer uncertainty regarding others, she prefers to allow others do all her talking for her, even though she might think or feel something different about a matter. Though her voice might not be heard or her opinion unaccepted, she's certain everything will turn out alright. Optimistic and warm, she's not one to start conflict...but she won't end it either. E'cho is a woman who's against conflict, so much so that she'll go along with whatever she'd told, even though she might feel different. Leaders are meant to be obeyed without question; leaders are leaders for a reason, right?
E'cho is one who prefers to stay at home, where things are familiar and comfortable and safe. With a choice, she'd never venture far from her Weyr or other areas she knows well. Being a dragonrider means she cannot afford such luxury, required to fly Search or otherwise interact with others in unfamiliar territory. Fighting Thread is no trouble; she is courageous and brave, willing to fight until her last breath for others. But going out from her cozy little home to socialize? No, thank you. Perhaps that makes her an obnoxious homebody, but she's perfectly content to be herself, no matter what. Though she's difficult to engage with in a social sense, E'cho is a fierce little woman under provocation, driven to defend those she sees as downtrodden or defenseless. Prone to following her emotions above her logic, she acts first and asks questions later...as well as experience regret for what hurt her actions might cause others, no matter her good intentions.

HISTORY:
Enonocho was a simple girl born to a simple life, a Harper's daughter through and through, along will all her other siblings. Like most in her family, she had that Harper talent, gifted with a voice like no other. As a result, she pursued Apprenticeship as soon as she was eligible, so young and eager to learn, not to mention so eager to please her parents and teachers. But what she didn't expect was to be chosen for Candidacy, as a mighty brown from Fort arrived, on a fine spring day in Enonocho's sixteenth Turn. Needless to say, Enonocho jumped at this opportunity, accepting Search with pride. Fort had need for a Harper like herself, so who was she to reject her calling?
Candidacy was like nothing Enonocho had ever experienced before. To be so close to a majestic dragon so often made her heart soar like an epic ballad. And to Stand upon those sands and watch as dragonets emerged, filled with youth and vigor, to find those fortunate Candidates who would be dragonriders? It made her want to sing with all her heart from Fort's Fireheights. But she herself was not so fortunate to be chosen...until after two Turns spent in Candidacy, a blue decided she was just right for him. Goumath plopped out from his egg at her feet and locked eyes with her, changing her life forever. Weyrlinghood was an exciting change, but graduating was an even greater one. Goumath looked ahead to what adventure lay ahead, while E'cho kept her eyes closer to Fort Weyr; her home.
For two Turns, E'cho and Goumath watched Fort's skies, fought Thread in her name, and defended Pern from whatever threatened it. But as news emerged that those who pilfered Fort's eggs and dishonored the Weyr were discovered and punished, E'cho could breathe again. But did N'ell deserve such punishment? Yes, she played a hand in this theft...but was it intentional or otherwise? E'cho was and still is determined to find out. No-one should be punished unjustly.
