Physical description:
Mia seems to continuously have a dreamy expression on her face, her large dark eyes framed by her soft curls. The black hair is generally left loose and is well cared for, with a nice healthy gloss to it. She allows it to flop down her face, the loose ringlets often brushed to the side. It comes down to about her waist, and sometimes she'll braid it and tie it up but she prefers to let it blow about in the wind.
Her dark eyes are framed with long black lashes and are deep, trusting and almost mysterious. With a delicate nose and a neat full mouth set in her round shaped face, a softly tanned complexion and a warm smile almost always lighting up her face Mia's a pretty girl, if ever so slightly spaced out looking. But that’s not her features, that’s just her normal expression.
Standing a 5'6" Mia sports a curvy figure and generous chest. With a very tucked in waist and quite wide hips she's a classic hourglass shape, and she's not obsessive about her body like some girls are. She eats what she wants to eat and doesn't often regret it, because she knows that she can burn it off when she's caring for Sorbeth or by going for a couple of laps run round the weyrbowl if she’s really pigged out. She's not toned and muscled per say, but she has a figure kept trim by being a dragon rider.
Almost a proper girly girl, Mia loves dresses. She doesn't feel she needs to have elaborate fancy dressy up ones, but that's not to say she doesn't want any! Anything floaty or twirly, lavishly embroidered or just plain beautiful and she'll stare at it for candle marks. Her favourite dress in her wardrobe is her Gather finest - a dusty pink floor length number with golden embroidered bodice and floaty fly away skirts. She adores the dress, and so it's always kept pristine and she always looks forward to when she can where it. However, her everyday clothing is more commonly a much simpler dress or bluse with either a skirt or breeches, sometimes trousers. In the summer months she prefers the short knee length dresses in bright, light colours where as when it gets colder she'll switch to the slightly toned down jackets and full skirt, and fur lined breeches. But sometimes, if she feels that everything’s been a bit grim she'll pull on a brightly coloured outfit just for the feel good factor.
Personality:
Mia is one of those romantic sorts. You know the type, the ones who stare dreamily off into the distance, want nothing more than to find their true soulmate and live happily after. She can spend a long time dreaming about who her perfect match is, what they'll be like, what their name is and most importantly - how she'll meet him. Will it be one of those chance meetings and love at first sight? Maybe he'll sweep her off her feet in a daring rescue. Who knows, but Mia is more than happy to dream.
She's one of those people who's content with the simpler things in life. She doesn't need fancy clothes to keep her happy (Though they sure help) and so long as she has friends beside her she feels like she can face anything the world throws at her. She'll battle on and try her best to keep smiling and looking forwards. However, when she loses that battle Mia needs a shoulder to cry on. She needs to know that she has someone to fall back on who can help her to her feet and brush away her tears.
The friendly sort, Mia loves to make friends and meet new people. She's not hugely outgoing and won't charge into a crowd, but had no reservations about saying h and smiling at someone new or different. Mia doesn't believe in judging someone by their looks alone and always wants to get to know a person before she fully forms an opinion, believing that everyone deserved a second chance and a new shot at life if they've messed up. Large crowds don't faze her, if fact it's quite the opposite. She doesn't like the thought of being left alone in this world. Of course with Sorbeth she never will be, but the thought of losing her friends scares her, thus she hates getting into arguments with them.
Mia's a gentle soul too, always on the lookout for someone who needs a kind ear and a little bit of reassurance. You can't rely on her to patch you up if you've cut yourself, the sight of blood makes her nauseous but once that's hidden under a bandage she'll be there for you. In an emergency situation she can be a bit of a flap, but if it's something personal or you need to talk she's the kind of person that you want to find. Mia's not one to turn someone in need away.
History: Born and raised in Nova hold, Mia was the youngest of three sisters. So naturally, she was babied that little bit. Both of her parents adored all of their children, but being the slightly chubbier, rounder faced girl Mia was always the one that got fussed over. She was raised a polite, sweet little child with good tastes, a strong sense of right and wrong and a positive outlook on everything.
Mia it turned out, was a romantic daydreamer from the start. She would often stumble over things around the house because her mind was elsewhere, or trip up outside because she was staring at the clouds. She wasn’t lazy, she was just slower at doing tasks because she’d get distracted by this that and the other. She had a habit of following her two older sisters round like their second shadow and fortunately both loved her enough and were tolerant enough to put up with it. In fact, sometimes they encouraged it and would dress her up in some of their older clothes, style her hair and the likes. The three got on excellently, and if there were arguments it would be between the older two. Mia never argued back, though did occasionally end up the mediator.
As a young child Mia often spotted the dragons from the hold flying overhead and was fascinated by them. It didn’t take long for her general daydreaming to take a new turn as she imagined herself riding high through the skies on the back of one of the majestic creatures. Of course at this point she was far too young to be Searched out, but she could always dream. And she did.
Even by the time she was coming up 13 this love had not died down. Her parents and sisters decided to get her something special for her 13th naming day. Each would go out hunting along beaches in the hope of finding a firelizard clutch. Not so that she noticed of course, it was to be a surprise. And what a surprise it was! They did indeed manage to get hold of an egg, and as if fated it hatched on her very naming day. The shell practically flew apart to reveal the mute green Inca, and from that point on it was wondered if the flit idea had been such a good one, considering the loud nature of Inca. But Mia adored her loveable, if slightly noisy, flit and was overjoyed by the present.
Mia chose not to pursue a craft when, at the age of 14, she attended Darana’s wedding to a fisherman from the Waverunner SeaHold. At that point, Mia thought that crafting wasn’t for her, and that she’d simply marry the man of her dreams and be the perfect housewife for him. Afterall, Darana seemed happy enough and she’d tried her parents crafts briefly, but found herself too easily distracted to become fully engrossed by them. Her first love was still the dragons.
Her dreams essentially came true when she was 18 and she was Searched out to Nova hold. She didn’t Impress for the first clutch, but being in the Weyr was enough for her. She did though, Impress at the next clutch. The luminous green Sorbeth shattered her shell quite impressively and then barrelled her way clumsily through the other girls to get to Mia, knocking her over in the process and nearly standing on Inca, who had always had a habit for appearing at the wrong moment.
2 turns down the line and Mia has graduated her weyrling training, as infatuated with Sorbeth now as she was when she first heard her voice. Now, her aims are simple – she wants to find herself the perfect weyrmate and settle down, maybe even have a few kids. The result of Sorbeth;s maiden flight fell through, the winning blue rider not being her future weyrmate but Mia is not deterred. She will find him at one point!

Dragon name: Sorbeth
Dragon age: 2 turns
Dragon size: Bit above average
Physical description:
Green (17d717 base)(aaf428 Markings)
Sorbeth is a bright hued green, easily recognisable by her distinctive yellowy green blaze on her face and 3 socks on all but her front right foot. She's not the best example of dragon proportions; with a tail that's too long and wings a little small, as well as having a compact body that's a little too deep for the length of her legs but the fact doesn't bother either Mia or Sorbeth one bit. Her build means she’s hardly graceful on the ground, rather clumsy in fact even as an adult, but in the air she’s quick and agile.
Personality:
Unlike Mia, Sorbeth is very down to Pern. She's to the point, no faffing about and likes to get a job done quickly and efficiently. She's often having to snap Mia out of a daydream of fantasy, or stop her staring at the latest dreamy boy she's seen. She's always eager to learn and enjoys to get her teeth into a task, sometimes literally. Sorbeth can be a bit brusque and impatient if something isn't being done, or if it’s not being done right. It can also make her a single minded and she won't pay attention to anything else until the originally set task is done. Sorbeth is relatively adaptable, and flexes to a situation, making the most of what she's got to the best of her ability.
Pets:
Name(s): Inca
Species: Firelizard
Age(s): 7 turns
Description: Green (00a75a) Loud, flirty, finicky A small green, with no markings. An overall muted green tone, the same cannot be said for her personality. Inca is very vocal, about everything. If she’s happy, sad, lonely, bemused, you name it she has a sound for it. The unfortunate thing is she’s not very musical either so it’s not uncommon for her to screech a bit more than a normal firelizard. She’s regularly vanishing off somewhere, generally because she’s found a new interest in a different flit. Any interest generally doesn’t last long though, and she’s been known to find a number of new boys and then decide she doesn’t like them that very same day. But she’s not indecisive. It’s yes or no for Inca. It just depends when you ask her which it is.
