Lewa’s athletic build comes from helping take care of her family’s Runnerbeasts and occasionally running to one of the Weaver Crafthall for an errand, she is fastidious; liking to keep her area neat and tidy, which is hard to do with a younger sibling running around and messing the place up. She prefers to wear clothes that allow her arms to be bare when the weather permits, the colors of said clothes are usually dark greens and browns as well as lose fitting, but not baggy enough that she trips over them. Lewa has a scar on her right arm from an accident that happened when she was younger. She keeps her red hair at shoulder length as it is the best way to keep it out of her light brown eyes.
PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY:
Lewa is a bright, cheerful girl who loves all animals, especially the Runnerbeasts, though those now come in a firm 3rd, with Dragons and her Firelizard being in 1st and 2nd respectively. She tends to be disobedient, this is because she has a stubborn streak as big as a bronze dragon, though she will listen to authority figures if she feels she is being heard in turn. Besides that she loves making friends and tries to ignore it when people react negatively to her. Her room is always spotless and cleaning is the one thing she will not go against someone in Authority telling her to do.
Lewa is scared about having to fight thread, but knows that her dragon will do their best to keep them both safe. In her free time Lewa likes to draw, though she doesn't think she is very good, so she doesn't share her drawings. Lewa tries to be a logical thinker but more often then not lets her emotions guide her.

HISTORY:
TW: Death in the family
Lewa was born to a Runnerbeast Farmer Father, and a Harper Mother at Southern Boll Hold. She grew up loved, if not a little spoiled. When she was old enough her Father, Jothar, began teaching her how to tend the Runnerbeasts that were a part of their livelihood, that sparked a love for animals in her. Jothar and his wife Merida were constantly having to tell Lewa no when she brought home one stray animal or another. Her love for animals intensified when one day she heard the roar of a Dragon from the direction of the Hold, of course at that time she was still too young to be searched but that didn’t stop her from trying to run to the Hold just to see the Dragon. Though it was easy to spot the big Green dragon from her home, from that moment on she dreamed of being a Rider.
When she was ten a new member was added to the family, in the form of a new baby brother named Tamar. She loved him from her very first look, she helped her Mother take care of her brother when she wasn’t doing chores or running errands. Though she loves her brother, she can’t help but be exasperated at him when he makes a mess, but she never lets her anger get the better of her. Sometimes she has trouble sleeping, but instead of telling that to others she usually gets up on the nights she can’t sleep and heads out to the nearby stream and goes for a swim. That has nearly stopped now after she cut her arm on some underwater debris when swimming one night, when her mother found out about the cut she was grounded for a week.
A month after that happened her father was attacked by one of the Holdless and killed, his killer ended up taking the Runnerbeast he had with him after the deed was done. It caused Lewa to spiral into a sadness that she had a hard time getting out of, but she did by focusing on raising the baby of the stolen Runnerbeast. She relapses into sadness now and then that Tamar seems to be the only one who can get her out of it. At the Weyr she will see a Mindhealer plus will have her Gold Firelizard to help her.
Then came the day she had been waiting for, her 15th birthday, though she knew that it could be a while before a dragon came on search. But the day they did it was an Emerald green and her rider, a woman named Demera, while the dragon Swillith. She ended up being chosen and taken to Fort Weyr where she will stand on the sands waiting for her own dragon to hatch.
