PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY:
Erina is an absolute doll, she is always seemingly joyful and kind. She is a social butterfly and is always a bit of a daydreamer. She makes shallow friends easily, however precious few worm their way deeply into her heart. Her heart is soft and she cares deeply about others and can often be a bit nosy about it. Naturally curious she often winds up with her nose in something she shouldn’t have.
She is a bit quieter than most in a group setting, preferring to simply listen and ask questions but one on one she is vibrant and talkative. While she has opinions she is hesitant to voice them, more often liable to let others talk over her. She also hates getting in fights or arguments and will either be actively avoidant or excuse herself.
She has the lovely and often frustrating combination of doubting herself at every step and perfectionism. Everything must be in its place and done perfectly well or it must be redone. She often finds herself completely redoing things that did not need redoing, occasionally inconveniencing others. She is nearly never satisfied with her own work seeing nothing but the flaws and mistakes. She also sees the flaws in other people’s work and actions and has a tendency to point them out.

HISTORY:
(CW: death)
Erina was born to a loving mother, however her father quickly abandoned them. Her mother never wanted to talk about her father, always saying it was too painful. However rumors were that it had been a doomed relationship from the start. Supposedly it had been love at first sight for her mother. The rider had promised to bring her to the Weyr and care for her forever. However he never came back.
Erina was basically raised by the weaverhall at Southern Boll Hold, the people there teaching her to sew and embroider from an early age. While it took some practice with skilled instruction she has become decently good at garment construction and repair, however she never got the hang of embroidery and is still bad at drafting more than a very basic pattern.
Her childhood was fairly uneventful, she learned the teaching songs, how to read, write, sew, basic mathematics and other skills needed for a sewist. But while she did enjoy needlework her heart was always in the sky, seeing the glittering hides of dragons when they came to the Hold made her heart soar.
The spring of 2775 however hit hard, a strange illness struck her mother, slowly weakening the once strong woman and turning her into a frail bag of bones. Dragonriders came, and Erina was declared a suitable candidate. However she was too worried about her mother to leave. Six months later Erina’s mother went to sleep and never woke up, her final wish to her daughter was for her to follow her dreams to become a dragonrider. So when the dragonriders next came in the beginning of 2776, with encouragement from her found family, Erina left to Fort Weyr to become a candidate and begin her candidate training.
However upon hearing of the wild nature of the southern continent, a desire for adventure struck her. Never one to hastily make a decision she sat upon it and debated transferring for months. When news of Nebulaeth’s hide glowing hide reached her that made her decision and she decided to transfer to Semaca.
