Name: Karlyn
Age: 14
Gender: Female
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Rank: None
Family:
Mother: Kelyna of Gold Malaracyth (deceased)
Father: C'lyn of bronze Kylith (27)
Grandparents on mothers side: green rider (Kmyna); father: bronze rider (G'yan)
Grandparents on Father's side: C'tir, father, bronzerider. Lynrette, mother, journeywoman starcrafter
Aunt: Tirlynna, 19 when she went between times, now about 29
Pets:
Green Flit: Kesly is a bright Lime green. She doesn't pay much attention to her human except at feeding time. Everything else is too interesting.
Green Flit: Carta is a flirt and the youngest of Karlyn's original flits. She is only reliable in the fact that she is unreliable. Her affections are always changing to everyone except Karlyn. She loves Karlyn and made the trip between tangled in Karlyn's hair.
Green Flit: Sasa is probably Karlyn's quietest green and most affectionate. Sasa loves to nuzzle and be nuzzled. She is very much like an ADD female cat.
Blue Flit: Swift is a dull color blue, and his color shows his smartness. He is dumb as a door knob (he got hit on the head and Karlyn rescued him). Its amazing he made it back between times, but then again all he does is sit on Karlyn's shoulder.
Burgundy Flit: Dolor is very indecisive, until the last moment when he will rush something. If he thinks he might loose a chance at something, he suddenly looses his indecisivness.
Brown Flit: Waterfall is a force of nature and Karlyn only sees him when he comes to curl up with her at night. Waterfall is another one Karlyn was surprised made the trip between with her.
Bronze Flit: Proud is the calm and reasonable voice of the flock. He is the oldest and Karlyn's first flit.
Color: Orange (Infertile Male affiliated)
Size: Size of a small green
Appearance: Bright carrot colored orange with daint build. He looks like the smallest rub will tear him apart.
Personality: Carrot is a very sleepy, laid back flit who is happiest when he is stretched out somewhere on his human. He always seems slightly bewildered and he often sneezes.
Flits that didn't come: 5 Greens, 3 blues, 1 brown, 1 gold. (The gold had a clutch on the sands) Karlyn hadn't really impressed the gold so much as befriended her. The greens and blues were to stupid to realize what happened, and the brown was injured and died right before Karlyn came.
Physical Appearance: Karlyn is easily described as wild. She has been living in the wild of Pre-Allride Western continent for 11 years with Tirlynna, Bamre, their dragons, and her flits as companions.
Her clothing in the summer was cut off pants, a tank top style shirt, and a light weight leather vest and tall light weight leather boots for protection. Her winter clothing was wool lined leather pants and boots with a wool shirt and a leather wool lined jacket. She also had clothing for the months inbeween that was more moderate, but these are the two extremes she wore.
Her hair is extremly short (bobbed at her ears) and is a sun bleached a dark blond (when she was born her hair was a lightish blond, and it has darkened to a light brown at the roots where it hasn't become sun bleached). Her hair curls wildly like her fathers', and underneath where the sun douesn't touch it is light brownHer body is long and skinny with wiry muscles from running around and climbing thing. She stands at about 5'11" (somewhat smaller than her mother). Her eyes are a light alomst icy blue paler than her mother's eyes and nothing like her fathers.
Personality: Being mute does not lower Karlyn's boyant personality. When someone doesn't understand what she wants, she mimics and moves her hands until she can make them understand. She was taught to write by her Aunt and Bamre, but she find it quicker to use hand signals. She has a basic language she has created with signals for certain words or things she wants to say. She finds it much easier though just to tell the dragons and have them tell their riders, but she is required to nto always talk through the dragons.
Most often she is found running wild on the island with flits all around her that don't even belong to her. She even befriended a gold. She tells the dragons she ahs an affinity for the creatures. She also tells them that she doesn't like whers because they are bloodthirsty. She fears whers and when she feels one of their wild minds, she runs for the camp where she lives and curls up near the dragons in fear. It was a wher that hurt her brown flit.
Most of the time she is quietly running about with a smile on her face conversing with flits through pictures or telling the dragons where she is as she climbs trees and fights local wild life.
Of course, her flock of flits is well cared for, or Bamre with all of his and the wild ones that hang around Purth would have something to say about it.
Tirlynna meanwhile made sure that the wild quiet girl learned practical things like cooking, mending clothes, and leatherworking. Karlyn was well looked after by the white rider and the rainbow rider.
History: Karlyn was born to two loving parents, bronze rider C'lyn and gold rider Kelyna. From the start they knew that her vocal chords were deformed and that she would never speak, but they loved their child anyway. They had a belief that thread would come. They built a weyr and created a safe haven from the high council for those who believed like them. Karlyn was the child of their first flight. The very flight that produced the unexpected mutations and a gold hope for Pern.
The High Council soon found out about this happy place, and happy things can't last forever. The High Council sent spies and outlawed Western Continent dragons from going to the other continents.
Kelyna still had hope for the weyr, but as her dragon rose a third time, a High Council gold thought to long be past her clutching years laid a gold, and it hatched hope for the High Council.
Kelyna did not know any of this as she played with her silent daughter before working. The clutch hatched, and the assassin sent to kill Kelyna impressed. He bided his time quietly, and then began killing people. He killed a bronze rider, and then a gold rider as her dragon rose. He watched the girl he love die, and he went mad. He killed all in his way, and mortally injured Kelyna, Karlyn's mother, the senior weyrwoman. It was Kelyna's last idea to send Karlyn away to grow up.
Tirlynna, Karlyn's aunt, and Bamre, the white rider who always knew where and when he was, took Karlyn into the past of the western continent to a time when none of them were alive so that the effects of timing it wouldn't be as bad.
Bamre andTirlynna were weyr mates, so they were happy together (at least from what Karlyn could tell) raising the child Karlyn away from the world. Karlyn could talk to the dragons, though she could only hear them if they spoke to her. She also had a love for the wild fire lizards. She impressed many of them and made friends with the rest. Bamre made sure she took good care of her flock and taught her how with his own dear flock. Interestingly, she did not impress any of the new colors. She made friends in a way with them, but never impressed.
Karlyn had a good life roaming the islands, being forced into lessons sometimes, and generally having the life every kid dreams of. Her biggest fear thoguh was wild whers. She would tell the dragons they were blood thirsty and would cower near the dragons when she sensed one nearby.
Eventually though, it was time to return, and so Karlyn returned to the bustling world that her she left after just turning four. Vague memories surfaced in her mind, but it was a strange and scary world
