" If you'll let me make one selfish request...please don't forget me."

BASICS

NAME: Ennis
GENDER: Cis Woman
PRONOUNS: She/her/hers
ORIENTATION: Demiromantic demisexual

BIRTHDATE: Spring of 2748
AGE: 27 as of 2775
LOCATION: High Reaches Weyr
OCCUPATION: Candidate
WING: N/A

APPEARANCE
EYES: Brown
HAIR: Red
HEIGHT AND BUILD: 6'1" and slender
PLAY-BY: Ennis from "Baccano!"
EXPY SOURCE: Ennis (Baccano!)
FULL APPEARANCE: Ennis is an extremely delicate looking young woman, with dainty facial features and long, slender limbs and very little body fat. She often wears a rather intense expression, and when she speaks, it is with a soft, serious-sounding voice. She wears her red hair short, just past her ears. She clearly cuts it herself, but somehow that works for her. Ennis tends to dress in more formal-looking menswear and prefers darker colors for day-to-day wear. She clearly takes very good care of her clothes.

PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY: Ennis sometimes struggles with being a person. So much of her life was determined based on what she could do for others that she has difficulty accepting that she doesn’t need to be useful for people to want her around. She’s also not used to people taking what she wants into consideration, so she tries to resist having strong opinions to avoid being disappointed. As a result, she tends to come across as quiet, reserved, and sort of a doormat. She’s not great at picking up on subtext or reading between the lines, and non-platonic dynamics are extremely confusing to her. She prefers to fall back on hard facts and figures when the business of other people’s emotions gets too overwhelming for her.

Due to a sheltered upbringing, she can be naive about some things, and unclear on extremely basic things about life despite being exceptionally well-versed in areas of math and natural sciences. She doesn’t have great instincts about other people, and relies on the instincts of those she trusts instead.

Under all that, though, Ennis is extremely loyal and passionate, loving people with her whole heart. She has a strong sense of right and wrong that she’s slowly learning to express, and when she decides something it can be very difficult to dissuade her of that decision, even if she won’t openly fight about it. One thing she will never tolerate is when someone is made to feel like they have no choice - that was almost her entire life, and she would never wish it on anyone. She is not afraid to get physical to protect herself and her loved ones, and is decisive and efficient in a crisis.

HISTORY
FAMILY:
Szilard - paternal figure, possibly grandfather
Unknown parents (presumed deceased)
Unknown siblings (presumed deceased)
SIGNIFICANT OTHER: Firo (not that either of them realizes it yet, they’re slow on the uptake)
BIRTHPLACE: Small cothold near High Reaches Hold
HISTORY:
TRIGGER WARNINGS: Abuse, neglect, violence, death
The only family Ennis has ever known was an eccentric, paranoid recluse of a man named Szilard and his green wher Szilsk. The old farmcrafter was obsessed with trying to find a combination of plants that would produce a medicinal cure-all. While he did manage to improve slightly on a few known herbal remedies, most of his results were simply foul-smelling sludges or tinctures that caused stomach cramps. Nonetheless, he was very jealous of his research, living as far from other people as possible to keep them from stealing it.

For the first decade and a half of her life, Ennis only ever interacted with Szilard and Szilsk. Szilsk was as close as Ennis got to a maternal figure, although the wher wasn’t particularly affectionate. As a result, Ennis never learned basic social skills, Szilard instead treating her as a research assistant, secretary, and maid. So despite being uncertain around people, she is an incredibly intelligent, well-educated woman with many practical skills.

In her late teens, Szilard began to develop health issues that made it difficult for him to travel to the nearest larger holds to get more food and supplies for his experiments, so for the first time in her life, Ennis was sent out among people. It was overwhelming, but in the best way, and she wandered around for a while simply enthralled. As she took in all of the people, a young man named Firo approached her on the rather thin excuse that she’d dropped a button. He offered to help her find everything she needed and get good prices, for which she was grateful.

From then on, he was her ambassador to the world outside of Szilard’s cottage, telling her about how most people had more than one parent, how some even had siblings, how most people’s days weren’t consumed with borderline unhinged research. She was very grateful to him, and that gratitude turned into an affection she wasn’t entirely sure what to do with.

It was thanks to Firo that Ennis realized she might’ve had siblings based on some of the boxes of clothes Szilard kept in the basement, but the most she could ever get out of him was a vague acknowledgement that she had had siblings once, though he never elaborated further. (Her family had all died of a pox when she had been quite young. She'd been sent to live with her grandfather Szilard when the first of them got sick to keep her safe. Szilard never told her of this, finding it too painful.)

For turns, she was able to keep Firo a secret from Szilard, but the old man did eventually find out about her dear friend, and when he did, Szilard himself went to the hold to tell Firo to leave Ennis alone. When Firo wouldn’t immediately bend to the old man’s will, pointing out that Ennis deserved to have more than one person in her life who loved her, Szilard attacked Firo. Firo defended himself, and in the scuffle Szilard’s head in the ground too hard. Many witnesses saw it and would happily attest that it was an accident, that Firo was acting in self-defense, that he shouldn’t be held responsible, but Ennis knew that would only matter for other humans. Szilsk would hunt Firo down and kill him for what he’d done, so Ennis managed to convince him to flee with her to the nearest Weyr - High Reaches - to beg for protection from the people and dragonkind there.

PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY:
Innocent and sweet-natured, Ennisk is young and full of good things. She believes in second chances, and is the first to reach out to someone who is having a bad day. She gets along with most of her siblings due to her friendly and calm disposition. She has a deep sense of empathy and intuitive understanding, willing to reach out to Morsk over and over, even if others do not share the same feeling. She has a friendly and welcoming nature, wanting to greet newcomers and help them find their place in the world. She likes to think that everyone has a role and she thinks hers is to be kind to others.

To her handler, Ennisk is just as friendly and sweet. She's their partner and she will support them. Though she doesn't always know what is and isn't a good idea, she trusts them to not steer her wrong. Even in the case of an accident or things going badly, she will forgive them and believe they just need to do good deeds in order to be redeemed. She likes to go on patrol, enjoying surveying whatever is "her" territory and see if she can greet anyone new.

Voice: Ennisk's voice is high and emotional, and she always says what she is thinking.

Why Me?: Ennisk sees so much potential in Ennis. She wants to help her learn to trust herself and see that her place in the world can be anything she dares to dream.

SZENSK
Image


BASICS

NAME: Szensk, formerly Szilsk
BIRTHDATE Summer 2746
AGE: 30 as of 2776

CLUTCHING
CLUTCHING: YES
RUNS/FLIGHTS: 2

APPEARANCE
LENGTH: 11.5ft
HEIGHT: 4.5ft
COLOR: Green
HEX CODE: #adf2dd
FULL APPEARANCE:
Szensk is short and a bit squat. Most whers are fairly bulky, but she is especially so, much of her appearance taking on the boxier look of a bulldog. Most of her body is a pale, minty green. Splashed across her hide like camouflage is a darker, more vibrant shade of green. It appears to have missed her wings entirely, but her lower legs are entirely taken up by this darker color.


PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY:
Szensk seems like all the worst stereotypes of whers. She is aggressive and territorial, and even at her most well-behaved comes across as semi-feral. This is more of a self-defense mechanism than the whole of her personality, however. Szensk craves genuine connection, but she lives in perpetual fear of being hurt emotionally or taken advantage of, so she lashes out before others can hurt her. It takes a truly stubborn, dedicated effort to get past her defenses, and even then she is likely to snap unexpectedly as if testing them to see if they truly care about her enough to forgive her for it later. She doesn’t believe in second chances (ironically, since she puts herself in a position to need them so often) and will hold a grudges for a long time.

The exceptions to her ire are those too young to have full autonomy, such as human infants and eggs. No one would ever mistake her for being maternal, but she’s not so much of a monster that she would harm a child too young to even move itself. To her bonds, Szensk is simultaneously their staunchest defender, their biggest headache, and their worst enemy. She lashes out at them more than anyone else, as they are the closest people in the world to her and she finds that absolutely terrifying, but she will die before she lets actual physical harm happen to them.
