Kiisha
STATS
Name: Kiisha
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Description: Kiisha has shoulder-length blond hair, fair skin and
blue eyes. She shares her parents' short but powerful build. Kiisha enjoys
swimming and thus she has muscled shoulders and arms.
Personality: Kiisha grew up at Dawn Cove and she's been going out of
her way to make everyone forget that she's the daughter of the founders. She
just wants to be a normal girl between the rest of the youth. Mostly she's
succeeded but every now and then people still treat her differently. She has
no desire to take up the running of Dawn Cove, she'd much rather work with
her hands, preferably in the food industry.
Family: Parents Deriaki and Gejuisu,
brother Tohiji.
Pets: --

HATCHING
Gruyt felt the tickle of little whiskers on her undersides as
some of her children wiggled from their eggs and gave their mother a
playful nuzzle. Her bond Bujoca quickly went to alert the
father of the clutch, Nadath and the candidates while Gruyt rolled
over with a hearty slap of tail fins and began to croon her song to
announce the hatching.
With the combined efforts of Bujoca, Nadath, and a little from Gruyt
herself, the candidates gathered near the shallows where Gruyt had laid
her clutch. The eggshells had long drifted back out to sea, but several
colourful little shapes dipped and flashed through the water.
The first to properly make his presence known was a little teal (pool),
covered in sandy spots. He bristled his whiskers at the candidates and cut
through the water straight toward the ornery cascatan he
would bond.
:: Wait! :: Nadath hurried toward
them, before Prodgucor could turn her attention to the feeding stations.
:: They're only a quarter wheke-ika, but they
should have First Names too. ::
Nadath cleared his throat and crooned a series of whale-song
syllables that Soliotedu knew meant; Beach Breaks the Shore.
:: I want a name too! :: cried another
hatchling, a deep purple female.
:: And me! :: squealed a green-mottled
blue male.
:: You'll all get First Names as soon as you find
your bonds :: said Nadath, ruffling his wing sails close to his
body. :: Don't keep the candidates waiting. ::
While her siblings squabbled, an elegant pearly-cream female (a
clam!) wound around the young Dawn Cove woman Kiisha, who'd waded up to her hips
to meet the hatchlings.
:: Whatever my first name is, you can always call
me Gallina :: said the hatchling. ::
And you'll always be Kiisha to me. I don't need a princess. ::
Nadath's song reached their ears, and Gallina translated;
Sand Makes Pearls.

ADULT
Kiisha returned to Dawn Cove
after some preliminary training. The Nekrats at Dawn Cove would help her and
Gallina mature further. Maybe they could have stayed away a little longer,
but despite Kiisha's complaints about being treated differently, she did
miss her family. She didn't mind being babied by her parents a bit, just so
long as everyone else acted like she was the young adult she was.
"You do know you're being a bit irrational, right?"
Gallina asked.
Kiisha sighed.
"It's just something that happens. Like I can't be my own person. People
will always see me as the child of my parents."
"So, what's wrong with that? I'm proud of my
parents. We will forever be linked."
"And do others treat you differently because of it?"
"Maybe those who do not like my parents? Although I
don't think there are any."
"I just feel like everyone expects me to take over the running of Dawn Cove
in the future."
"So? Find someone else to do it and your problems
are solved..."
Kiisha considered that thought. In fact she couldn't imagine herself living
anywhere else. Her place was here. She just didn't want the responsibility
of running a town. But there were people who would like nothing better.
"You know, you might just be brilliant." Kiisha said.
"Hardly but an outsider's view is sometimes better
to see the picture." Gallina retorted.
