Deceased: Died in Selenitas Earthquake Plot
Humans:
Name:Rati
Age: 20
Gender: Female
Sexual Orientation: Bisexual
Rank: Candidate, Journeyman
Physical Appearance: slight build and stature Rati has a graceful body, covered in scars. The scars however are not signs of a touch childhood. Instead they are evidence of her not so graceful abilities, in short she tends to be a klutz. The most noticeable of which being a scar running from just below her right ear down across her throat to her left clavicle. She also bears a scar on her face that starts above her right eyebrow and run straight down to curve slightly under her right eye. Due to this she wears her shaggy deep red hair across the right side of her face, keeping her green eyes hidden as well.
Rati’s style of dress often leaves a bit to be desired, as she opts simply for the practical and doesn’t really pay attention to much else. Due to this her shirt and pants shows more than their fair share of repairs and patches since she sees no need to waste marks on more new clothing. The only thing she really treasures is her goggles that were given to her as a kid, and which she constantly wears on top of her head.
Personality: Rati is a very laid back person, taking things as they come at her. At the same time she loves a new adventure and is always trying to pull new stunts. Sometimes they go well, and sometimes Rati gains a new scar, but in the end she will just pick herself up and go at it again.
As for the scars, she's generally a pretty jovial person and likes to joke about them. Though the ones across her neck and face are the only two whose story tends to change depending upon the person she’s talking to.
At the same time, Rati often doesn’t know when to stop, taking things a bit far from time to time. She's spent most of her time away from large groups of people growing up, and is often unnerved by too many people in too small a space. She tries to hide it by being more energetic, more talkative and easily becomes annoying and at sometimes awkward.
History: Born into a holdless trader family, she grew up loving travel and exploring the Southern lands. Her parents cared for her and watched over her closely since all of her other siblings died in infancy. They were always watching over her every move so as soon as she could Rati started trying to get away to play. Unlike her siblings Rati seemed to be an exceedingly healthy, even if she was a klutzy child. She never got sick and would bounce back from her injuries quickly.
Despite the traditional thought of seclusion and distrust of other holdless her family was quite fond of them. They would often take in those they found, forming a surrogate family. As a group they provided protection and helped get those who had been pushed out, onto their feet and going again. Mostly their rag-tag group traded with the South, and only on rare occasions would they make a trip to the Northern lands. Even then they stayed as South as possible trying to keep out of trouble.
It was while they were traveling and trading that Rati fell in love with the Vintner craft. An offer was extended to her to stay at the Crafthall not far from Lighttower Hold and begin to learn the craft. While the loss of the open road was hard, Rati chose to take them up on the offer and began to study intensively. It was here she became close friends with another of the apprentices, who gave her his goggles as a farewell present before he left to walk the tables as a Journeyman. Tragedy struck, and he was killed half way through his first year out. Word eventually reached Rati of his death, and she took it hard. The cause of his death was never officially told to her which made it even harder to cope with. It was only spoken of as simply, an accident. For a time she simply dove into her studies, forgoing anything else.
Eventually she achieved the rank of Journeyman and began to walk the tables. With the help of the open road and travel she began to recover, and pull herself out of the depression she had been lost in since her friend's death, at the same time searching for answers on her travels. Going from place to place she visited different Holds and Halls, sampling and learning about the region's specific drinks and growing methods.
It was on her travels she happened to be at a Hold the same time that a Searchdragon was and another offer was given to her. The offer of standing on the sands at hatching time, the chance to impress. Rati at first was unsure about the choice, but eventually decided to go ahead and take a chance.
