Appearance:
Iselakwe is a young adult with shiny black shoulder length curly hair and bright cheerful and soulfull green eyes that just seem to reach into your soul. Her eyes are subtle almond shape, her lips softly thin with a subtly dainty nose. She's about 5'4" tall and built kinda stocky from hard work. Not the overly muscled but just enough to be vulumptious yet not to heavy weight. She's roughly about 129-130lbs. of all muscle.
She dresses in leather custom made for her by her leather maker father. She prefers durable leathers with white shirts in all natural browns and whites. Tho not ideal for farming she prefers knee-high boots to keep the weeds out of her pants and a basic rope belt for keeping her vest and pants on. She always wears pants and clothes that are comfortable yet made for work so not much into dresses.
Iselakwe don't like to put her hair up. If she needs to keep her hair out of her eyes she just puts on a headband to push it back. Her skin is a permanent farmers tan that she keeps healthy and youthful with natural herbal salves she makes herself. She hasn't been faced with any incidents to cause any scars so she is scar free.
Personality :
Iselakwe is a hard worker and focused on her work, chores, and duties. She's not interested in girly things nor dating. She's always had to be mature and responsible. She grew up in a loving family with strong values of teamwork and no one is better than another family member. Since she could walk she's always happily enjoyed helping her mom out with house chores and was always right at her side. She don't waste her time for arguement because she has so much work to do and that's all tha matters to so she'll walk away from debates and mind her own business mostly.
She didn't like going into the main holds often and prefers the quiet of the country life she lived. Yet she enjoys helping her dad take produce and supplies into the weyr or pickup supplies her and her family needs. On her free time she just prefers picking flowers and going on nature hikes with her Whers and taking in all the beauty around her. Tho wild whers can be rough at times moments of just being with her pals and enjoying the simple things in life is what makes the challenges worth it.
Iselakwefocuses on the positive and won't whine or fret over things. There's not time to dwell on the bad, just do what you can to fix it and continue with your work. Then tomorrow will be a new day. She loves her life so much she is always a happy person who brightens other people's day even tho sometimes she seems self-absorbed due to her keeping busy.
History :
She's always lived far out in the lush hilly countryside of a nameless Cothold far from the nearest minorhold known as Cathar Hold. Yet this don't bother as long as she has her whers or a runner and cart and it's where she's happy. She likes to call her farm Wildflower Prairie. From sun up to sundown her day is all about taking care of the livestock, crops, and home. She's kinda wanted to be a healer but has never officially persued the trade tho she does know a bit about gathering herbs and mixing them into ointments and basic first aid for healing the animals or a neighbor when the need arises.
She's an only child so she don't know a thing about siblings and pretty much it's been just her, her dad, and her mom to tend the home and farm. her grandparents passed a few years back and now that's she's gotten older she chose to take more responsiblities on. This has allowed her mom to relax and take to sewing for enjoyment. Between this and her love for critters it was a no brainer for her to go impress some whers it was time for it.
Her change in her fate started with simple deliveries. She was delivering some food to the Weyr's Kitchens and felt a need to stay there. It was one of those feelings that you just know you need to be there. She asked around and found a place to stay there. It would be hard to be away from her beloved farm but she just felt she needed to try living here. She'd live in the weyr and travel back there to tend the farm when she was able and possibly get someone who could help her mom when she's not there. She started out exploring after getting a place to stay and a job helping wash dishes and clean floors. She entered the sands and was drawn to a jaguar spotted brown egg that became her impressed Cliffside Catamount Iselakwesk.

Size : 5'5" tall/14'long
Appearance :
When you first look at him he simply looks brown but a further glance you can see an undertone of a metallic hue that's almost like bronze. It sparkles most brilliant in the sun. Then over that he's marked with tan sand looking jaguar spots and points on his jawline. Iselakwe loves this unique combination of colors in the beautiful young wher boy. His skin is surprisingly soft leathery skin texture, smooth to the touch.
He's sleek yet muscular and has the build of an athlete or light worker. He's not the buff build of a draft horse but he could handle most farm work and carry his rider with ease. His ridges are short and smooth, allowing for a pleasant bump free ride without obstruction. His face shape gives a serious stern-looking expression that shows his sincerity and focus.
His catlike build allows for agile land movement. You can just see his muscles softly and subtly gracefully ripple rythmically. His footfalls are soft yet firm with meaning and emphasis. Each step has purpose and pride, reflecting his very nature and style. He keeps an even pace never slowing nor speeding up. It's fluid and consistent with no lope whatsoever.
Mutation (medium): Off-rank colors
Personality :
He has a very laid-back and calm optimist mindset. He has to keep that mindset to stay focused on his work to do, that comes first, He's often ending up the peace keeper between the others when things get heated in order to keep them focused on their duties and keep the teamwork spirit alive. He just feels it's his duty and responsibility. Life is too short fighting and hating and resenting each other. Then no one wants to cooperate. So that has to be squashed immediately.
He's not afraid to speak up and calmly, yet strictly put his foot down when needed. He is slow to anger and slow to lead. He refuses to waste precious time leading or following others, his job requires teamwork and focus on the job at hand. He doesn't like to yell so he's often soft spoken and helpful like a teacher not a leader when he needs to instruct someone. In his mind his way is the best way to keep things running smoothly, balanced, and harmonious.
He lacks jealousy and fear in relationships. He's always trusting, loyal, and kind. His heart in relationships just must echo that despute-free teamwork feel for him. Being jealous gets in the way of that so he's learned to easily let things go and move on. Tho sometimes keeping the others from fighting makes it hard to maintain his composure. His heart will always be a regal, gentle, pure soul.

Mind-Voice : His mind-voice is like the soft chirping of small song birds usually but when needed beats like a drum. The drum beat sound is for when he needs to be stern. Yet his calm normal voice soothes most people's heart and soul.
Runs : none yet
