Other Family see “Golinna’s Family Tree” in album: s448.photobucket.com/albums/qq208/hrn212/
Personality: Hirara has always been spontaneous and willing to try new things. She makes quick decisions, though she generally makes pretty good ones. If Hirara finds herself in a situation she hasn’t prepared for, she can usually work things out. She’s not someone who’s likely to panic. She’s quite good at improvising when she needs to.
She is also quite opinionated. She’ll tell you what she thinks, occasionally with little regard to whether you’ll approve of what she’s saying. Hirara doesn’t hold grudges. She might call someone a silly wherry one day, and be completely friendly with them the next. She tends to go with the flow with everything, including her emotions. Hirara doesn’t like to put too much thought into anything, and instead prefers to do things. When it came to her craft, she was always better at the practical side than at the theoretical aspects.
As for Hirara’s sexuality, she never considers it. As with the rest of her life, she tends to just go with the flow. If she’s attracted to a man, so be it. If she’s attracted to a woman, that’s fine too. Now that she’s at a Weyr, and since Valecth has already had her first flight, Hirara is open for anything. She lets her desire and passions decide who she sleeps with. She’s never even considered the possibility of having a long-term relationship. She figures she doesn’t need to consider that until she wants to.
Physical description: Hirara is short, standing at 5’1” and quite muscular. She would be skinny, except that she’s kept herself fit. She has brown eyes that are just a bit on the large side, much like her brother’s. She has the same color brown hair as her brother, which she had kept at shoulder length. Due to an accident while learning how to flame, her hair is not in a very short rider’s crop. She’ll often have it pulled back in a simple braid, to keep it out of the way. Hirara wears men’s clothing most of the time, if only because they are more comfortable. She’ll occasionally add a splash of something feminine, such as earrings, or a woman’s tunic, if she feels like it.
History: Hirara is the middle child to a pair of Vinters from the Vintner Hall. As a child she tried out all the different crafts she could apprentice in while staying at the Vintner Hall. She liked her brother too much to move away from him, so she limited herself to crafts that were available at the Vintner Crafthall. In the end, at the age of 13, she ended up choosing the Vintner Craft. It made her parents happy, and she hadn’t found any other craft she liked more.
She did okay with the craft, excelling in anything that involved physical labor. The aspects of the craft that involved sitting and learning different formulas for certain wines, she found intolerable. She much preferred actually making wine than learning about making wine. When her younger sister left to Benden Hold to become a Farmer, Hirara wondered if she might have done better choosing a different craft.
She was far from walking the tables when a Searchrider from Tristar visited the Vintner Hall. She was particularly excited when the rider Searched her and her brother. The two had become quite close while they both apprenticed as vinters. He hadn’t wanted to leave, but she had convinced him to join her. So the two left to Tristar to see whether they’d Impress.
Hirara loved Weyr life, and was so glad that she’d Impressed and she’d be able to stay. On that day, Hirara had been mentally coaxing every little dragonet that even came near her, browns and bronzes included. She figured a girl couldn’t Impress brown or bronze, but she figured it didn’t hurt to try. A little green came toward her and she smiled at the little dragonet, sticking out her hands, inviting the green towards her. The green stopped moving for a moment and just stared at Hirara, as if considering the Candidate. Then the green awkwardly ran up to Hirara and announced to her rider, {{I am Valecth and I am hungry. You will feed me.}} Hirara hugged the little green, agreeing that she would feed her, and that she’d make sure Valecth was always fed.
Nearly a turn after Impression, Valecth rose for the first time. Hirara found the whole experience exhilarating. She particularly enjoyed waking up and trying to guess who was next to her in the bed. Hirara has completely adapted to Weyr life, and she’s sharding happy she’s at the Weyr.
Just after the Gather, Hirara and the other Weyrlings in Idoreth’s weyrling group chose their weyrs. Hirara chose one of the highest possible, one that was only accessible by dragon. She figured it’d be a great way to impress anyone she brought to her weyr who wasn’t a rider. Plus that way she’d have real privacy to do whatever she wished with whoever she wished.
While the Idoreth’s Weyrlings were learning how to flame, Hirara’s hair caught fire. D’nio’s Rerioth had flamed too close to her. Luckily she wasn’t really injured, just some minor burns on her neck. However her hair was left quite short, which she rather liked and kept.
In the chaos of the volcano at Tristar, Hirara was able to escape, but her brother G'dal and his dragon died. She had been spending some liesure time with a candidate named Jisdol when everything started shaking. She and Jisdol escaped on Valecth. In the time spent at Igen, Hirara and Jisdol didn't ever get together again. Mostly this was due to Hirara's rather flightly nature. She has managed to move past her brother's death, though she still isn't quite able to discuss it without choking up.
