Kinecha
Reaching a height of almost 6 feet, this woman is taller than most. Her features are somewhat like those of a man, with hardened arm and leg muscels. Her short hair, whiteblonde, has been cut with a knife making the ends ragged and uneven. Long brows curve over wide grayish green eyes with dark lashes. Her cheekbones and chin are angular and her nose is long and narrow with only a little bend at the middle, where it once was broken. On her right cheek is a 2 inch scar which runs just below her cheekbone, and around her body are several other scars, the largest running along her lower abdomin at a length of 5 inches. Her face is slighty tanned, a light bronzing of the skin, a result of many hours in the sun, stands in constrast to her hair. Her hands, with strong, long fingers, are callused and scarred. All in all, this woman is very masculine.
Kinecha wears a shortsleeved deepblue tunic tucked into her long black-dyed leather trousers which dissapear into midcalf-high, furlined black wherhide-boots. Stitched to the left shoulder of the tunic is the emblem of High Reaches Weyr, while on the chest, above the heart, is a symbol of the Guard; two crossed swords. Around her head, a darkblue bandana has been tied tightly, once it served a specific purpose (to hide orangedyed hair), but now it is worn as part of the uniform. On her left side a belt knife rests in its sheath, attached to a broad belt.
A double corded knot in the black and blue of High Reaches, has been looped once and left with a tail. Hanging from her right shoulder, it designates her a Guard of the Weyr.

Kinecha's Five Firelizards:

Green Erzulie (Necha's oldest 'lizard)
Pale green pours over her slender form; the darker jaded green of her head transforming into a creamy layer that spills over her neck and wings, and turns into an again slightly darker green 'round her talons. Minty wings' membrane is pale, pale green, a transluscent addition to her coloring, and headknobs and muzzle are dotted with blueberry spots; a complimentary garnish to her flawless look.

Blue Simbi
Storms on Pern may not happen every day, but this vibrant blue seems a tiny storm within himself, grey-azure wings churning the air currents frequently, as sinewy muscles seem to indicate that he remains in flight often. Multi-faceted eyes swirl as storm clouds, and his thick tail swings to-and-fro in accompaniment, mottled blue, grey, and green from the tip to the very underside of his neck, where it wraps around to become a vast curtain of navy on his torso. It seems very likely that this flit is as active as his appearance, and for the weather-beaten 'expression' in his eyes, it may be advisable to 'batten down the hatches'.

Brown Shango
As sweet as balm, as soft as air, as gentle,-- sands of coppery russet milk their way into dunes of relaxed curves and plentiful demise. With his sharp teeth the intricate knot of life at once unties, unraveling beneath fangs of deceit. The wealth of the ancients unravels upon the slanted pyramids of ridges which trail from betwixt head, to the tip of timeless tail. No color but brown buries his softly wrinkled form, though the blackness of midnight's void threatens beneath the stonework of his plump belly. A sliver of darkness holds close with each intake of air, coiling it's tangled rope tightly around the babe's chest. The beauty of sun-burnt passion flows through ichor-filled sails, the calm deadliness of a desert swathing his eyes. A flick of softly hued tail sends a sharp flicker of metallic glint: Born of steel and desert, deceit and betrayal.

Brown Ghede
Colors of cocoa flows over the small body of this firelizard, in waves of different shades, giving him a benevolent look of friendliness and playfulness. His fluttering wingsails are the color of caramel to match the bonestructure, which is cinnamon-colored. His long slender tail is washed over with the color of chocolate, the very tip a deep brown, which is almost black. His temper matches the color of his hide, warm and friendly, calm and quiet. At times it would seem that a jesting smile forms at the very corners of his mouth, which suggest that he is also a playful soul.

Blue Kalfu(@recycled)
Midnight's darkness flow from head to tail of this smallish lizard, over wingsails to wingtips and down his legs to his talons, which stands out in stark contrast to the rest of his color, being a startling turquoise. Calm as the midnight color of his hide, he moves slowly even when taking to flight, gliding through the air as a cloud will across the sky, though at times energy will burst through him and he will move as quick as lightning.

Bronze Samedi
Lean and tough, bronze hide seems aged by centuries of battering by the sun's unforgiving rays and the sweep of sand. Like a wind sweeping across the desert, his lean form is brushed with weary ginger and weather-worn hazel. Hesitancy hides in the furrowed eyeridges, the oversized orbs beneath that seem ready to perceive every flicker of movement, every shift of every moment.While drab in shade, the muted tones do little to subdue the oversized wings and gangly limbs, the sharp 'ridges and whipping tail that flow together in the whirlwind storm of muscle and hide.


As a point of interest, all Necha's lizard have been name of voodoo gods and goddesses, Loa, the insperation I got from reading William Gibson. If you're interested in knowing more about these go to:
