° Physical Description °

° Hair

She wears her fine, wavy, medium-brown hair tied back with a scarf or bandana. It falls in one length to her shoulders, except for a fringe of ringlets that fall across her brow.

° Eyes

Her eyes are what many people consider "hazel:" green with a yellow band around the pupil, framed in golden-tipped brown eyelashes.

° Appearance

Her skin doesn't tend to tan around her face, but merely spots with faded freckles. The rest, her hands and shoulders for example, tan moderately well. In general, Kymmy is petite, standing at around 5'5" with curvacious but muscled body-type (the type kids used to consider overweight until it slimmed down around age 18).

° Clothing

Kymmara wears a woven wide-brimmed hat in the sunshine, loose-fitting clothing cuffed at the wrist and ankle. A sueded vest and boots or sandals are typical adornements. She's not particular about color, but tends to wear neutral colors such as tan and grey, and dusky shades of other colors like blue and red.

° Personality °

° Attitude

As a teen, Kymmara was teased for her stocky body-type, which lead to her wearing loose-fitting, unflattering work clothes. She also developed a generally shy disposition around other people and rarely opens up to people except for friends and family, Arowhim and Fairouz included. She feels more at home around the animals, especially the herd beasts and Tang and Cruz. She is very affectionate with the animals, and actively supportive of her friends, lending a warm smile and a listening ear. She is protective and quick to defend any of them.

° Hobbies

Once in his boredom-inspired hours in the afternoon when the day is its hottest, Arowhim made a small wooden flute. Upon its completion and several days of practice, he decided that his expertise should remain in the crafting, and not the playing of the instrument. He gave it to Kymmara, who has cherished it, and since taught herself to play. Now, in those sun-intense hours, while Arowhim whittles, she plays the peaceful yet eerie, reedy music as waves of heat radiate up from the earth.

° Pashah °

[Pashah, Kymmara's brown appaloosa mare, image © Yakima ]

° Pronunciation

paa shah

° Species

Alskyrian Old World style appaloosa

° Gender

Female

° Age

7 years

° Coloration

Pashah is a plain-brown color, with a black main and tail, and dark hooves. No other markings grace her body, except for the distinguishing "blanket," a large patch of white on her rump with black spots like a dalmation dog's.

° Personality

Pashah is not a particularly nice mare, nor is she especially easy for Kymmara to control. She is known for being snappish and even nasty when having a bad day. However, something changes whenever she is around her rider. Kymmy is her master, and Pashah respects her strength and abilities. That does not mean she won't test the young woman, however.

° Relationship to Kymmara

No, Pashah is not an easy horse to live with, but she and Kymmara seem to have an understanding. They respect the other in the field; each is very skilled and they make a good team. However, Pashah likes to test her rider whenever she can, and Kymmara tends to look at it as more of a game than deliberate malice. Pashah does not bite or bare her teeth viciously at her. Strangers are a different story.

° History

Pashah was Kymmara's test as a teenager. Few people could put up with the nasty little filly, and parents promised that if she could train the appaloosa, they would buy her any horse she wanted. Though they got off to a rocky start, Kymmara and Pashah became inseparable. When it came time for her parents to fulfil their promise, she happily declined.

° Parents

Kymmara's father, at the time of her conception, was a young, handsome drifter well-known for his ability to woo any young lady and leave once he became bored with her. Despite her mother's attempts to change him and persuade him to settle down, he soon disappeared into the night, leaving her expecting a child with no support whatsoever. Friend of Arowhim's family, they took her in, and soon she was supporting Arowhim's widowed father like a sister.
