Name: Hania
Age: 36
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Straight
Rank: Headwoman
Main Location: Victory Weyr

Physical Description: Hania is of average height for and build for a woman, though slightly on the plump side. Her hair is of a dark blonde color that she likes to keep very short. As she prefers to be indoors rather than out, her skin color is pale white, which gets red and burned rather easily. Her eyes are a piercing blue that seem to penetrate into whatever she looks. Her face has a few lines and wrinkles, but their down to stress and worry rather than age.She wears pale and rather bland dresses that cover the entier body, from ankles, to wrists, to kneck. She also wears dresses that she thinks hides her more than ample breasts, which in the end tends to accentuate more than hide. She also wears little to no jewlery. In fact she does everything she can to hide her womanhood.

Emotional Description: Hania is very good at what she does. Under her care the Weyr has prospered and is running smoothly. Whilst working she's calm, efficient, observant and under no illusions as to who is the boss. Everyone comes to herasking for advice, on what best to do in any given situation or event. Outside of her day to day duties of running the Weyr, things are rather different. Ever since the death of her Mate, she's become very withdrawn and something of a recluse, not socialising with anyone but her children. The children who've become the center of her world, her heart, and the only one's for whom she lives. It's very hard for anyone to get close to her, for she has put strong mental barriers to anyone but her family. She decided long ago that she'd let no one else into her heart, for she couldn't go through that loss again. If she feels that it looks like she's becoming involved with anyone ever again, she'll do her best, not to let him in. Anyone who knew her from before, would see a completely different person. She was once very outgoing, almost extroverted. She once had several friends, where now she has none, for she chased them all away. All that's left to say is, is that she's an odd contradiction in terms.

Abilities/Strengths/Weaknesses: She's a good organiser of people and supplies, always knowing what's needed where and when. When she putsher mind to it, she can be a very caring person, who goes out of her way to give advice where needed. She doesn't take critism all that well, she tends to glare at them, then just walks away. Unless she has to, she prefers not to talk to anyone. If confronted about something, and shes's in a tight courner, she has beenknown to speak out in her defence, rather harshly. Being the perfectionist, she prefers do most of the work herself, and doesn't delegate as much as she should.

Brief History: A lot has happened to Hania in her 36 turns, most of which she would rather forget. Her life didn't truly begin till she was 18. At that time she came into contact with a stressed out bronzerider who's dragon had been one of the unfortunates to loose the flight. To cut a story short, she consented tohelp give him relief. As this was her first time, she was rather shocked to discover that pregnancy was the result of this union. Once the emotions of this discovery had calmed down, J'mie decided that he would stick around and help her, to which Hania was truly greatful. So greatful in fact that over timetheir union grew and they were eventually Weyrmated.

Most of her time in the Weyr concerned helping out the then Headwoman in the day to day running of the Weyr, something to which Hania undertook with a passion that was observed by all who saw her. This would eventually lead to her walking the tables and becoming the new Headwoman when her mentor die d.

Her life in the Weyr was filled with joy, happiness and a responsibility that she truly loved. She was good in her position and outside of her responsibilities, her mate and her children were the center of her world. It wasn't till after the birth of her third child that a tradgic event took place, an event that would change her world and her out look on that world for ever. Her Weyrmate J'mie took heavy scoring during one of the deadliest falls towards the end of the pass. Injuiries, that despite the best efforts of the Weyrs Healer, from which he would never recover.
