Mahiri Windheel (WIP)

[Mahiri]

Mahiri Windheel Appearance Race: Drykas Gender: Female. Age: 14 Birthday: 10, Winter, 500. Birthplace: Endrykas Appearance: Mahiri has a small frame, a slim build, a height of 5 feet and 2 inches and a weight of one hundred pounds. Her fair skin has a mild tan, and her long dark hair is slightly sunbronzed and tackled into a thick single braid. Her face is rather square, with a reasonably wide jaw, high cheekbones and keen, lively green eyes. She also sports a Drykas outfit, mostly green in color with brown knot work ornaments, a set of clothing that identifies her as a member of the Emerald clan. Mahiri's neck and upper back are ornate with tattoos that resemble hoof prints. These are her windmarks which she has obtained fairly recently and which mark her as a true Drykas. As far as her physical capabilities go, Mahiri is clearly still in training and has a long way to go, but the girl without doubt has the capacity to become the expert archer she so yearns to be. Character Concept Mahiri aspires to be a scout, a hunter and a master archer and loves spending time in company of animals. Outgoing, brave, inquisitive and determined, she never misses an adventure, and while many may call her reckless, she is indeed cautious and mindful of danger, as she understands the consequences of most of her untrained actions. She regards all races and species equally highly, with the exception of friends and family, who occupy a particular place in her life, heart and soul. Mahiri hates seeing her loved ones in sorrow or in danger and will strive to comfort or save them. Naturally, responsibility for those few and the rest of her community inspires the girl to do everything she can to assist Endrykas. Aside from archery and animals, Mahiri likes to admire the world during twilight and enjoys light rain and thunderstorms. Character History Pending. Language Fluent Language: Pavi.

A yvas is what equates to a girth with an attached breast collar combination hung with hooks and topped with a small flat hand grip that lays along a horse's shoulders. The Yvas is often placed over a colorful pad that acts to protect the horse from the rider. The grip fits over a strider's withers which holds the yvas in place. It almost looks like the type of thing vaulters used on their draft horses, though it is more functional than a vaulter's pad. The horses can free themselves from them if they got separated from their riders, and do not have tack to entrap or tangle them when they are running loose. The yvas has ring tethers on it for handling a set of wither bags and a waterskin, and is often decorated in knot-work beading that identified the horse and rider as part of a specific pavilion. Drykas ride without any headgear or bridles on their horses at all. They do not use any halters either.
