FULL APPEARANCE:
A woman of average height for cisgendered women of Pern, she's not ever considered herself attractive or unattractive to look at. All in all, just somewhat average all-around. She has long straw-blond hair she keeps pulled back in a high tail on most occasions, though during particularly hot summers she will sometimes cut it and let it grow again. Her skin is pale but sometimes tans in the warmer months when she wears less clothing to stay cool (though usually just burns), and her eyes are deep olive green. Her left bicep bears a scar from threadscore.
Clothing tends to be toward the "cute" or "stylish" side, and she spends most of her marks staying up to date with the latest fashions.
PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY:
Shanelis is bubbly and cheery, doing most things with an upbeat attitude. Very relaxed and easygoing, she's generally quite easy to get along with, but can just as easily get on someone's nerves; she's always been a glass half-full sort of person, looking on the bright side of things or trying to find them in a bad situation.
A very observant individual, she tends to notice small details quickly, from changes in someone's personality to the expressions on their face, or items that have been moved from their proper places. This makes it somewhat difficult to lie to her, though she may not let on to others that she knows unless it's a serious transgression. Speaking of serious transgressions, despite her optimistic attitude she does not forgive easilyand can be a bit of a crybaby when wronged. Not to say she cries every time something doesn't go her way, but if she is hurt by a close friend she is much more likely to cry over it than the average person.
She's very much a social butterfly, very eager, and has a deep, near-instant love of anything she sees as cute--she even has a small collection of stuffed plush-creatures in her room (mostly self-made). She does have a bit of a problem keeping secrets, and isn't the best to rely on as she is often late and constantly running behind. Shanelis gets caught up in the little things, you see, and can spend hours fixated on one detail or task unless she is redirected.
HISTORY
FAMILY: Various living relatives; Mother, Father, Siblings x3
SIGNIFICANT OTHER: N/A
BIRTHPLACE: Minor Fort hold
HISTORY:
Shanelis, or Shane as she is sometimes called, was born the oldest child in a small hold in Fort territory. Her parents were a tailor and a weaver, supplying their hold with clothing and helping with the tithe to the Weyr for protection with their crafts. She grew up rather well-off (after all, everyone needs clothing, right?), her father making fabrics and her mother sewing them and trading for necessities with the others. The Hold itself mostly traded amongst itself, occasionally with passing caravans and nearby Holds for what they could not produce locally, but they were very self-sufficient otherwise.
When her siblings were born, three in total, she helped her parents take care of them, but did not neglect her tutelage in the Tailorcraft as she came of age to learn. Hoping to pass one of the family trades to their eldest daughter, perhaps, her mother was very adamant that she learn a skill. In the end, however, things would not come to be. She was Searched at age eighteen, and after bidding a tearful farewell to her family was taken to Fort Weyr to begin her new life. She kept up with her tailorcrafting between Candidate lessons, especially once she failed to Impress at her first Hatching. It would be a long while before she aged out, but she wanted something to fall back on, and she already knew how to do something so why start anew?
It wasn't until the summer of her twentieth Turn that she would bond to Zetath. Although the blue was hardly what she was expecting to Impress, she was nevertheless smitten with such an adorable baby dragon, even with the violence in which he was born. And even with his antagonistic attitude toward Bronzes, which Shane has no problems with, the two got on like a spark to kindling. They breezed through Weyrling training (despite a few little scuffles thanks to the blue's commentaries), escaped the Trailblazers' poisoning with only mild sickness, and survived their first Threadfall. Then the next, and the one after that, though the pair suffered during one fateful Fall. It wasn't a bad Score, but it still took many sevendays to recover from, the muscle of Shanelis's upper arm damaged.
Overall, they've been keeping themselves busy, between Falls, tending to Zetath and Shane's Craft.
