Personality/History: Siyal is curious, but not in a loud, boisteroius way. She's quiet and thoughtful, with a tendancy to watch rather than speak or act. Sometimes this is a fault rather than a strength.

Her father died in a hunt, and her mother was reluctant to foster Siyal as she was her only child. Siyal, though, was bursting with curiousity about the other bands and eventually convinced her mother to do so when she was twelve - older than most who are fostered. She's enjoyed her life in Tavol, and has enjoyed a brief lovemating or two in her two hundred some years. Loosely lovemated with Veruca, she isn't interested in a more permanent pairing at the moment as she's content with her current life. She does not often join the hunt, preferring gathering and especially weaving.

She looks good to me!

I've another Plainsrunner that I'm working on right now - Ghelyn. She's younger than Siyal, and I'd planned to put her in Ouren, but Tavol's lagging behind in characters, so I could put her here, instead. I'll try to get her sheet posted tonight, and you let me know if you think the personalities mesh for soul-sister.

Meimei, you want to list Siyal as a lovemate of Veruca? It'd be fun to see such opposites together, but Veruca is really loyal if it comes to her loved ones

I'll be waiting to read Ghelyn's sheet!

Veruca and Siyal as lovemates would be interesting. They really are opposites. Veruca is outspoken, and Siyal rarely speaks up. Siyal had to convince her mother to foster her, while Veruca didn't want to be fostered. But Siyal is really loyal to the people she cares about as well, so they have that in common. And neither one is interested in a lifemate at this point either. Yah, I like that idea! I'll put it on her sheet.
