Name: D'lyn (Danalyn)
Age: twenty-three, born in autumn
Gender: female
Sexuality: bisexual
Rank: Green, Northern Sweeprider
Location: the Eyrie
Personality
D’lyn makes an interesting first impression for a rider. She appears private and silent, saying little. For D’lyn actions are everything. The turn of the head. The raise of the eyebrow. The quirk of the mouth. D’lyn grew up this way under the watchful eye of her father. A cool deliberate fellow, he had no gift for words, and his daughter found that communication was just as easy without them. Though she uses few words, D’lyn has no difficulty in getting her point across. Her eyes, as well as all her features are highly expressive, and it’s not difficult to determine what she means.
Though she says little D’lyn is by no means reserved. D’lyn has strong convictions and passions, which she fully expresses. In her opinion everyone has a right to be heard, and you /will/ know if she disagrees with you. D’lyn has been known to punch before speaking when there’s a problem. However, D’lyn is quite caring. It will take time to force her to aggression, and she would rather be a friend than an enemy. This is a part of D’lyn’s optimism. She always assumes the best of people and situations. She has hope abounding, another attribute of her father. Even after the death of her mother, her father was extremely present in her life and gave her the strength she has as a rider.
From the farm, D’lyn developed her sense of focus and responsibility. With only two running a farm there was much work to do. In order to get it all done the father daughter pair had to work together and maintain focus. D’lyn grew up practicing teamwork and is a supportive team player. She is also, however, quite independent. Her father was fairly hands-off, allowing D’lyn to develop personal confidence, and leadership skills. She follows just as quickly as she leads, with the quiet grace she possesses.
Though she does put work first, D’lyn is extremely playful once work is done. She loves games, and is quick to compete. She loves physical sports and is quite confident that she can compete. She’s also prone to pranks. Everyone deserves a good pranking every now and again. Because of her silent nature her mischievous streak often comes as a surprise to those who do not know her.
All in all, D’lyn is quite serious when it comes to her responsibilities, but when work is done, it’s time to play.
Appearance
D’lyn possess that “natural” look. Her style is fairly outdoorsy: unkempt and uncaring. Upon first impression, one sees a fit, tanned, young woman, exuding the sunny warmth of a late summer's day. She's all freckles and length, her hands and feet being slightly larger than the average girl's and lending her the appearance of an overgrown, fairly awkward weed - but a flowering one.
Her rangy, almost gangly look is caused by her lean build, though it is offset somewhat by the muscle she possesses. Indeed, D'lyn is quite fit, having spent her early life toiling on a farm and now working to keep up with her simourv.
If one looked closer on her darkened skin they would see the smattering of freckles on her arms, shoulders, cheekbones, and around her bright, slightly slanted hazel eyes. Those same eyes are rimmed by thick lashes and looked out from a broad, friendly face, with high cheekbones and a strong brow. Her chin, competing with her brows for prominence, has a slight dimple that serves to soften the effect of her overbearing features. Her lips are thin yet expressive, their shape a sure indicator of D'lyn's internal mood.
Her short hair, having a natural wave to it that borders curliness, is a light mix of red and brown. It's lack of substantial length to really do anything with, as well as it's unruliness, keeps it hanging down to gently brush at her shoulders.
Perhaps as a direct reflection of the simplistic, rural lifestyle she once lived, D'lyn dresses in easily worn garments, often colored in earthy tones. Trousers and a light tunic are her preferred articles of clothing, with sturdy boots to match. At times there may be a cloth band in her hair to keep it held away from her face, or a few of Sehraph's feathers as accents. Her style of everyday dress could never be called elegant; practical is a much better word.
D'lyn moves with enthusiasm, a ball of carefully contained energy. She is quick in her motions and agile, not to mention strong. She is the picture of a physically fit, active young woman, and can seemingly go for days without showing strain or fatigue. For D’lyn, body language is key, and because of this she has good awareness of how she looks. Her stride is deliberate, but fast-paced, with a confident swagger in her narrow hips. She stands tall, keeping her shoulders back. She keeps a posture that reflects her mood, as is her habit of using her entire body to express herself. A slouching, slumping D'lyn is an unhappy or tired one; an excited or jubilant stance includes a tilt of the head toward the sky and a bright smile.
