Character Personality: Kressana has a sympathetic nature and instinctively reaches out to people in need of help. For Kressana, affection and caring must be expressed in tangible acts or service of some kind. She feels love and kinship for people everywhere, not only with her own family, protectorate, or group. Finding similarities and making links between people from differing backgrounds or with different perspectives is a gift of hers.
Kressana thoroughly thinks a situation through before deciding upon a course of action, assessing and analyzing the matter carefully, and she can be relied upon to reach a fair, reasonable, and sensible solution to whatever she is facing. She is able to handle practical matters very efficiently, using both deductive reasoning and manual skills.
She has a tendency to be overly humble or unsure of herself and to look to others for inspiration, motivation, reinforcement and approval. Being somewhat passive, Kressana is trying to learn how to take initiative and motivate herself.
Character Background: Family history, childhood, whatever is necessary to help us understand your character better
Kressana was left behind at a gather; abandoned by her family at the age of 8. It was not until the next day that she was discovered by the local headwoman, asleep near a bread oven. When attempts to find her parents failed, she was fostered and put to work as a drudge. Kressana worked hard and was elevated to a maid and laundress.
At the time the meteors began to fall, Kressana had been wed for three years to a man who did not care to be married. It became clear shortly after their wedding that his eye tended toward the male persuasion and he only married Kressana to get his family off his back. She’d spent most of her marriage in solitude and quiet contemplation.
When the time came to flee, she did not bother to look for him. Kressana packed her things and left on the back of a green dragon as she had been instructed. Once settled at their new home Kressana took up her prior position and began to work as maid and laundress. It took several months before she’d finally had word regarding the fate that had befallen the man she’d been chained to in matrimony. He was dead. She was free.

“Kressana! Kressana!”
Lifting her head toward the sound of her name being shouted in the lower caverns she searched for the source of the call. Kressana was bent over a vat of hot water as she washed the days clothing. Her eyes found the source of the commotion in the dim light of the glows. “Santel, I am here,” she called, standing and drying her hands on her apron.
The woman rushed to her side, quite out of breath.”You will not believe the news I have to tell…” Santel grasped Kressana’s hands in her own and started into her eyes with great excitement.
“What is it,” Krassana asked with great interest.
“You’re husband.”
Kressana’s stomach lurched and she could feel the color drain from her face. “Great Farneth…” Her plead could have been interpreted by her friend as hope for life, but it was motivated out of fear of reunion.
“Word came from the Weyr today. Riders came back from searching the ruins…”
Kressana was holding her breath in anticipation of what news they had come by.
“You’re husband’s brother confirms, his body was found in a cave along with seven others.”
Kressana’s knees gave way as she burst into tears; tears of triumphant jubilation in the knowledge that she was at last truly free.
