APPRENTICE HEALER KELLICE

Persona : Kellice
Writing Status : NPC/Owned
Age : 15
Rank/Craft : Apprentice Healer
Residence : Ierne Island Weyr

Physical Description : A rather average looking girl, Kellice's positive, cheery personality is what those that meet her remember. Her thick, massive blonde hair is slightly curly but normally pulled back in a braid or some other restraining arrangement, masking the waves. It is her one vanity and reaches to her waist, below if falling unhindered. Dancing grey eyes take in the world on either side of a pert nose, lightly dusted with freckles.

Personality : Kellice is a proper Pern youngling, aware and consciences in her duty to those of higher rank. Given permission, she will tease even her superiors with light hearted humor. Orphaned just after she entered the Healer craft at 12 Turns, she was fortunate enough to have Masters, Journeymen and classmates that cared for the girl. Embracing her new family, Kellice's disposition didn't change a whit, except for the occasional flash of sadness in her grey eyes. Master Alysian was something of a shock to the her, but Kellice has found a similar support in most of the other Healers at Ierne Island Weyr.

Life Story : Her younger years were a time fondly remembered by the Healer. They were full of love from her parents and childhood play with her friends. She showed an interest from a very young age for the Healing craft, and her parents happily had her apprenticed with the Healers of Thread's End Hold. Only a few sevenday later, her parents and several others traveling by ship to the north died in a sudden storm, the dolphin traveling with the ship was unable to save all that were swept overboard.

Her masters and the rest of the Healers at Thread's End Hold took the young orphaned girl under their collective wing and, though she missed and grieved for her parents terribly, Kellice did not lose her refreshingly bright outlook on life. A third Turn Apprentice, the girl was stunned to hear she would be one of those chosen to accompany the Journeyman traveling to Ierne Island Weyr to help set things up and work for the new Masterhealer, Alysian. Besides the cold, demanding Master, Kellice enjoys the weyr, falling easily in with the other Healers, Weyrfolk and even the Dragonriders (once she overcame her initial awe of them).
