Overall Description:
Confident - Rhiasyn is someone who presents themselves with confidence. She is secure in herself and her knowledge of her own abilities and it shows.

Loyal -

Confidant - Secrets are safe with Rhiasyn. An excellent confidant, Rhia is the type who'll never speak of what she knows. At least, she wont unless she thinks there is a chance someone will be in danger if things aren't known. She takes her responsibility to those who choose to take her into their confidences seriously, which to her mind also means protecting them against any harm which might befall them or others with regards to the things she is told. The idea of someone being hurt when she had the knowledge to stop it occurring is one which she can not stand.

Formal - If there is one thing Rhiasyn is guaranteed to be good at, it's dealing with formal situations. Raised in a rather traditional manner, sat he daughter of a Lord Holder, Rhiasyn has been dealing with formalities and traditions her entire life.

Ambitious - Rhiasyn has always been a touch ambitious. She doesn't want to settle for being second best, even if in many ways she was born into that role. Though she is of the Blood of Benden, Rhia does not aspire to rule a Holding. She wants to make something of herself on her own merits, rather than on the strength of her bloodline or an advantageous marriage.

Romantic - As a daughter or a Lord Holder, she has always been aware that her greatest value to her family was in her ability to be married off to confirm an alliance or draw another family into closer ties. Her mother married for love, but she was not from a major family line and Rhiasyn knew that her father's first marriage was made for power. It was Korlinna, her brother's wife, who showed her that a blooded lady could have love as well as duty, and that Rhiasyn did not have to settle for being controlled. Rhia dreams of having a relationship which is based in love and friendship, like that of her brother, rather than the cold duty she sees in so many other Lords and their Ladies.

Genderfluid - Being a genderfluid individual, Rhiasyn has days when she feels female and other days when she distinctly does not. Overall she tends to be fairly neutral in her gender expression, using female pronouns for the sake of convenience. However there are days when she feels particularly feminine and others where she binds her chest and wears more typically masculine clothing.

Father: Syrenoi - Lord of Benden Hold (deceased)

Children:
None

Background:
Age 0
- The second child born to Lord Syrenoi of Benden Hold, and the first from his second wife Rhianna, Rhiasyn is nearly eight turns younger than her half-brother Syrian, the son of Syrenoi's first wife.

Age 5
- Though she is being raised to the ways of a well bred lady, Rhiasyn spends a lot of time following her brother around, playing with the animals in the stables and roughhousing with the hold boys.

Age 8
- Syrian's engagement to Korlinna, daughter of the Lord of Nerat Hold, is announced.

Age 10
- During a formal visit to Nerat with her family, Rhiasyn wanders off, and finds herself in a room with a trio of mreeow Cubs. Her brother's fiance is also there, playing with the little cheetah type. Though she is initially afraid of getting into trouble, Korlinna invites Rhiasyn to join her in playing with the cubs.
- Syrian is married to Korlinna in an elaborate ceremony. As part of the Ceremony, all three of the cubs who Rhiasyn had met in Nerat are brought forth. The little cougar type clearly remembers her, as it begins straining at it's leash to reach her. The trio are gifts, with one each to go to the Groom and his bride and the third to distribute as he sees fit. It doesn't take much convincing for Syrian to give the cougar type to Rhia, keeping the male lion type for himself.
- Rhiasyn names her cub, Esme.

Age 12
- Rhiasyn apprentices as a Vinter, sent to learn the craft for which Benden is most famous.

Age 16
- Syrenoi falls ill. He is sick for some time before passing away.
- With Syrenoi deceased, Syrian becomes acting Lord Holder. When the Conclave is called, he is confirmed as the new Lord of Benden. With Korlonna yet to produce a child, Rhiasyn becomes Heir-Presumptive to the holding.

Age 17
- While out on a trip through the minor holding of Benden, checking in on their people, Rhiasyn's party is attacked by holdless bandits. Esme dies in the fighting, protecting Rhiasyn from an arrow to the back.

Age 18
- Rhiasyn walks the tables to Journeywoman.
- Rhiasyn is sent to Sabishi Weyr for safe keeping while her brother's Guards hunt down the bandits who have been targeting her
- Rhia has always been able to hear the dragons who come near the hold, but being in the Weyr, surrounded by dragons every moment of her day, in a new and rather overwhelming experience.
- While watching the hatching of Nagith's clutch from the stands, a hatchling Shiroi calls specifically to her. The Shiroi's name is Qaith and they want her as their rider.
- Not long after Qaith's hatching, Rhiasyn obtains a firelizard egg. It hatches into a gin, whom she names Luce.
