Personality-Verity is naturally wary of most people and is slow to make friends though she is quite charismatic. Most times she is sarcastic and cynical causing shallow wounds left and right to dissuade those who try to befriend her. Almost all fail. She also is extremly stubborn and hard willed. Once she belives in a cause she will die for it. She lives for her beliefs: feminism(excluding the ditzy populance of most place), independence, and ,though she tells no one, true love.
Music is one of the things that draw her out of her carefully crafted shell. She has a natural grace and rythm that is seductive to all men. A hard learned method allows her to dance with freedom and complete ingnorance of all around her.
With other women she is closed mouthed, she hates almost all gossip mongers and there for tends to keep to herself. With men she seems open but it is a carefully crafted facade to keep her emotionally seperate. Any man wishing to get close would have to shock her horrible or reveal himself almost totally to get her to drop that mask. Only vulnerability endears her. A few men risk her sharp wit.
History- Verity was born to a fertile couple in Rutha hold. She was well loved by her mother and sibling but she often battled with her father over stupid things. HE had been raised in a strict conventional family and disliked her views on what she could do. In defiance of him she apprenticed herself to the miner craft at the age of 13. There she learned the basics of the craft and gradually became respected by the headminder and men of the craft. By the age of fifteen she had been promoted to a journeywoman. It was extremley young and those who had once respected her turned their back in disdain.
When she was posted in Keroon far from the few friends she had she was desperately lonely. She was looked down on by the ladies of the hold, who she had come to serve, for her youth and she an away from her profession. For days she wandered and ended up at a small outpost of the BEastcraft hall. She was taken in a nursed back to health. She began helping there and witin the first few weeks she witnessed the birthing of her first runnerbeast foal. The owner and been trying to breed for a pure black filly. The runner beat was jet balck except for a small white star on its forheadand the fact it was a foal. The man was distraught and almost killed the newborn. Verity intervened asking that if she worked for him for an entire year she could keep and raise the foal. He agreed Till she was sixteen Verity worked at the outpost and raised her stallion. When her term was over she left the man and his wife with little regret and travled to a large town near the sea that thrived as a seaport. There she got a job at the Tavern as a dancer. She knew little of the craft but was taken under the wing of a woman named Katli. She taught her the tricks of the trade but not before a few of the rough customers had gotten to her. Slightly bruised and with plenty of experience she hadn't wanted she emerged a year later and decided to head north again.
She arrived at Hoigh Reaches and began dancing at the tavern there. Here shew aquired soome skills in self defense which are much needed in her profession. From there she moved to the Weyr and integrated herself into the weyrstaff learning of the traumatic and slightly comical life it the weyr's leaders. She spent some time in the bed of a blue rider who she convinced to take her to Raek as a final favor.
