The most defining trait of Dardranel, looks-wise, would be her hair. Despite being a "tomboy", she stubbornly keeps her blondish-red hair long, or kept. When she was a little girl it was ridiculously so, but she cuts it around an inch below shoulder-length nowadays, or keeps it in a ponytail when she lets it grow out. Dardranel's skin is pale and freckles and burns rather than tans. Her face looks childish and delicate, in contrast to the rest of her body, and would look even more so were it not oval and fairly angular. The latter is most visible on her cheekbones and chin. She has light-pink lips, round teal eyes under stern, slight eyebrows, and normal-sized ears.

Dardranel's face nearly looks as if it has been placed on a different body. The only thing her head and body share are their seeming frailty. She is 5'9, and will top out at 6 feet. It is as if all the growth that's happened to Dardranel happened in height. But her rural upbringing shows. The girl is wiry and decently muscular--candidacy will not diminish that. She is agile and a remarkably quick runner, to make up for her mediocre strength. She is flat-chested, a feature which contributes to a somewhat androgynous appearance.

Dardranel isn't picky about clothes. She prefers the simple--comfort first, but if a dress is just as comfortable she won't mind wearing it. She does like bright, intense colors, and unless she's doing messy farm-work the girl prefers to wear bright clothes, if possible. "Fancy" outfits, while Dardranel can tolerate for a formal event, she prefers to avoid them. Jewelry and makeup she finds frankly wasteful. With her growing feet, it's hard for her to even find shoes that are large enough, and Dardranel cannot walk in decorative footwear such as high heels as of yet.

Personality- hotheaded, brave, energetic, social, scatterbrained, creative
Responsibility and a firm sense of logic have been ingrained in Dardranel since she was little. She's naturally caring, especially when it comes to the living--be they animals or people. She's fine helping others even when it's unpleasant. What she can't help, however, is a naturally short attention span. The girl, because of this unfortunate trait, finds it hard to focus, though she has been training concentration as of late and it has improved. She twiddles her fingers, or moves her leg...she can't sit still. As a result of this she adapts to different situations quite easily--the only upside to a short attention span for Dardra. It may be hard to wrangle them into reality, but Dardranel's mind is full of ideas. Some of them have already been used to make her family's farm more effective, and this trait will do her good throughout life.

Dardranel has her quirks, but in exchange she is a brave person. Besides dragons, who she has warmed up to through her favorite Air-rider, little truly scares her. She can rush headlong into danger (the reason for many a childhood injury) easily. Foresight is something the girl needs to learn. Of course if there's a battle with say, a Tainted going on she wouldn't run to fight it--she is not (completely) foolish, and is behaving more coolly as she grows up. She also loves social interaction. A very friendly person, Dardranel tends to speak the icebreaker in a conversation, or crack a joke. She doesn't like to see others unhappy, and can come off as clingy to the more sensitive and introverted.

Rank- Sekkai Dragon Candidate

History-
Hellman's Well isn't a city known for its peacefulness. The Fortinthas moved away from the hustle and bustle (and black market) of the place, and settled a-ways east near one of the Lavan Plains' many rivers, almost on the edge of the territory. A humble farm was created. Over time, as Fortintha children grew old and had their own children, the farm grew into an affluent ranch, a large and happy family always running it. It was into this family that Dardranel was born, the third youngest of six siblings. Though a few of the family members moved away from the farm, wanting to see the world like those scarce distant relatives (one had even been a dragonrider!), most of the Fortinthas went into the agricultural trade. Dardranel never found the place boring. She loved being around the animals, especially. They managed to keep away from most of the strife plaguing the world, and as a result, until a group of Tainteds took away her grandparents, gone to visit their own siblings, Dardranel lived a responsible but sheltered life. Even then, she tried to remain optimistic, and did. The Fortinthas would usually sell their produce in the city--it's the key word "usually" that would lead to Dardranel's first visit to Lihn. Her parents, especially her doting father, didn't want to take her the last time they had ventured to the capital city, but this time she was definitely old enough. They traveled by caravan, and though the trip was dangerous the part of the family going arrived with the produce they would sell.

The girl's eyes widened at the sight of Lihn. Hellman's Well was a large place, but paled in comparison to this! It was magnificent, more so to a "country girl" like her. Dardranel barely noticed the shadow of an Air dragon behind her until his rider poked her shoulder and said hello. Dardranel and her parents, after a moment of shock, got to talking to the rider--a plucky eighteen-year-old woman. During their stay in Lihn, the teenager became friends with the Rider. A whole new world was opened to her--the Rider would regale her with stories of her life at the Academy, bonding with her Air...Dardranel's relative fearlessness and love of animals got her thinking about a different career path, and life. Dragon riding. She was certainly fit enough for it, and wasn't mentally ill. If she didn't get a dragon, Dardranel would maybe sign up for Dire candidacy. Naturally her family wasn't too happy at first, but Sinthia was charming and skirted over much of the danger involved with dragonriding. Dardranel found herself crushing on the Air-rider, just like she had with a childhood, female friend in the city...if she signed up for candidacy, she could avoid growing up to be a farmer, or more disappointingly a farmer's wife. She didn't feel romantically attracted to boys at all, and it wasn't just an experimental phase. She didn't want to marry some man and have tons of children. Though volunteering for a chance at a dragon was a rather roundabout and difficult way of avoiding that issue, Dardranel thought it would be killing two birds with one stone. And so, while her family traveled back home, parents having reluctantly approved of their daughter's choice (hoping she would grow tired of it and come back) Dardranel volunteered, to her delight was accepted, and was taken to the Academy.

Pet(s)- None that she's taking with her
