FULL APPEARANCE: Nysie is short, standing around 5 feet even, with a scrawny build. They don't look substantial, and no amount of required rider training will change the fact that they are naturally weak. They tend to hide behind baggy clothing, which ends up making them look even smaller. Their hair, a dark brown, is worn in a shaggy mess nearly to their shoulders. Under one of their dark eyes, a birthmark stretches over their pale skin. Although their skin looks almost sickly, it flushes easily with color according to mood.
PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY: A first impression of Nysie reveals someone who is not social in the slightest. They tend to avoid social events and are not particularly pleasant in one-on-one interactions. In any social interaction--unless with a preferred person, such as their brother--they are usually thinking about how to get out of the conversation. Not that they care about being polite, of course. They are a bit off-putting, both in giving off gremlin energy, and in the way that they can be genuinely mean. They will be rude and insulting, and have a brusque way of speaking, talking quickly and running words together--not to mention cussing like a pirate.
They are prankster and a creature. Most of the problems they cause are inconsequential and minor, but they live to inconvenience others and try to mess with people constantly. They don't mean well, but they're not entirely malicious either. Really, they're just in it for the snacks. They are extremely food motivated, and want to try every food in the world. They will go to any feast...mostly so they can take as much delicious food as they want. Do not perceive them, or worse, talk to them, they are only there for the food and will probably threaten to stab you if you try to take their precious food.
In addition to being a mischievous, rude, and insulting sort, they are also incredibly lazy. They've learned to do the bare minimum, but they don't do anything more than that, and you bet if they're off, they're not helping anyone with anything, ever. Forsk you for even asking, freak.

BIRTHPLACE: Fort Weyr
HISTORY: Nysibie was the first child born of flightlust to greenrider Anyse. Born at Fort Weyr in 2748, they only have vague childhood memories of what predates threadfall, of the war, and so on. They were, as a child, far more focused on their inner circle, their world much smaller, at the time. They were particularly fond of their half-brother, born from a different father but the same mother, who was raised alongside them. Their fathers had no involvement in their lives, but their mother would occasionally make superficial familial gestures until they became adults.
Nysibie, or "Nysie," and their brother, Kanysin, or "Kanny," were troublemakers from the start. The creche was often busy, and they became notorious for sneaking away and getting into all sorts of minor, childish mischief. Nysie was the ringleader, of course, teaching their brother to cause problems. The two were often separated in educational settings and lessons.
Their childhood was relatively uneventful, until 2762, when they became a candidate. Less than a turn later, they Impressed to Blue Ixith, finding themselves with yet another partner in crime, albeit one more charismatic and socially-aligned than themselves. They were a bit disappointed not to have any time with their brother in candidacy, but they figured that once Kanny Impressed, they could cause Adult Problems instead of Child Problems.
Unfortunately, Kanny never Impressed. He started as a candidate around when Nysie was due to graduate, but never Impressed. Nysie, lazy and troublesome as always, was only begrudgingly put into a fighting wing. In 2765, shortly after graduating, they bought a flit egg, which hatched into a blue firelizard. Also in 2765, still barely a newly minted rider, something of interest occurred. A new weyr was founded! It was in a warm, tropical paradise, where there wasn't as much need to fly thread, and there were probably lots of exotic foods, too! Without a second thought, Nysie put in for a transfer, and they travelled with Kanny to Semaca Weyr shortly after it's founded.
As it turned out, living at Semaca was a lot of work, even more than living at Fort. They decided that Mazurka squad would give them the best opportunity to find snacks and gathering locations of new and exciting foods. They pushed themselves to work harder than they would have liked, though they never took on extra responsibilities and would, at times, be less thorough than they should have been.
If Kanny hadn't fallen for Semaca as soon as they stepped foot in the weyr, Nysie might have left. It was harder work, after all, than a full fledged Weyr. Starting a new weyr was not easy. They stayed only for their brother, though they did come to enjoy the weather and novelty, even if it was hardly the dreamy, lazy retirement they'd hoped for.
Luckily, the pirates showed up. They didn't particularly care where the food came from in terms of legality or morality, but they really, really liked that they could order anything they wanted from all over. Still, they did wish their weyr had the resources and locality for big feasts with delightful buffets to harvest, rather than having to work for every meal. Ugh.
