Physical Description of Persona:
Rigella is 5'5'' tall and weights around 130 lbs, with lithe, feminine body. She has dark hair, green eyes, small nose, strong chin, high cheek bones and dusky skin. Rigella often wears a serious expression. She doesn't pay much attention to her looks, just enough to look tidy and respectable. She could be pretty, even beautiful, but she doesn't want to.
Emotional Description of Persona:
Rigella takes her life seriously, sometimes too seriously. She has her lighter, merrier side too but she rarely lets it show. She's intelligent, determined, responsible and compassion-ate. She's also a very neat and organized person. She is much like her father in personality, even has his tendency to disregard rules if they don't suit her. She has always admired and idolized her father.
She shies emotionally away from men, trying not to fall in love with anybody.
History of Persona:
Rigella was born as a second child to healer Rigmor and his wife. During her earlier child-hood the family moved between holds often, but then settled down to Onyx Hill Hold for many turns. Rigella had a happy childhood. She had two younger siblings. She knew early she wanted to become healer like her father, even if it wasn't allowed.
When she was twelve, her father started to train her in secret.
When Rigella was fifteen, she fell in love first time. The target of her affections was five turns older than she, and member of the Hold's Blood. He seduced her, lured her into his bed and then coldly dumped her and laughed at her. Heartbroken Rigella hid her pain from her family and became the serious woman she is now (well, except from her mother, who noticed something was wrong and forced the truth out of her). Rigella also had a revenge of sorts on him, although putting laxative in someone's food isn't much.
The family moved to Dragonsfall Weyr when she was 17. That was a dream come true for Rigella. She was now allowed to apprentice openly. When her parents transferred from Dragonsfall Weyr, Rigella stayed where she felt home and had made friends and could walk the tables to became a journeywoman.
