General Background:
Daerelle has been a fighting rider for most of her life, and will continue to fly Thread until she and Sallith are incapable. She enjoys the challenge and hard work of it, and would die of boredom if she didn’t have something equally challenging to take its place.
Born to a bluerider and a journeyman healer, Daerelle lost her father early in life and identified with him to the point of standing as soon as she turned 12. She Impressed Sallith and was placed in a fighting wing once she turned 16. A hard-working rider, Daerelle adopted the ‘play hard’ lifestyle of many greenriders; while never a brawler, she gained renown for being a hard drinker, a good card player, a willing racer, and congenial bed-partner. She and Ferine, a rider in her wing, became best friends after they both ended up sleeping with the same wingmate one night.
Their friendship ended over S’tarel, a bronzerider who had become Ferine’s lover. Daerelle, jealous of Ferine’s happiness—and resentful of Ferine’s constant boasting of how S’tarel would never look at another woman—set out to seduce S’tarel, and succeeded. The encounter blossomed into an affair as the two acted on a deepening attraction, and Daerelle became pregnant. While Daerelle intended to keep her child’s parentage a secret, Ferine made a joke about how any man in their wing could have fathered it. A vindictive Daerelle waited until her son was born to let Ferine know his name—right in front of S’tarel, who did the honorable thing and admitted he’d sired the baby. Ferine demanded that S’tarel choose between her and Daerelle; S’tarel chose Ferine, and Daerelle swore he’d never touch her again.
The relationship between the three was bitter, even as S’tarel tried to be a father to Serell; Ferine transferred out of the wing and refused to speak to Daerelle, who taunted her whenever they met. Ferine’s personality underwent a change as a result; once free-spirited and open, she became uncommunicative and possessive of S’tarel, short-tempered, and increasingly dependent on alcohol. Desperate, S’tarel agreed to weyrmate with her, but the tension in the relationship soured any understanding that remained between them. In turn 198, she was demoted to watchrider after nearly falling off her dragon due to a hangover, and went for Daerelle with teeth and nails when notified. Daerelle began to avoid her and keep her son away from Ferine’s children, particularly Seferin, whose hostility towards Serell was so pronounced that the boys brawled every time they were together.
Daerelle attempted to make a new life for herself with a rider named K’dren. She had a son by him, Kaerell, and found to her shock that K’dren had no interest in the boy at all. S’tarel would spend time with the baby when visiting Serell; grateful, Daerelle asked for, and got, a chance to initiate a friendship with S’tarel. It was the last straw for Ferine. Despairing that her weyrmating was over (she and S’tarel rarely did anything but quarrel), and fearful that her condition had damaged her sons, Ferine tried to sober up and regain her former status. Unfortunately, while she regained her place as a fighting rider, she was unable to stay off the alcohol, and died in Threadfall while under the influence.
Far from ruining their friendship, Ferine’s death made Daerelle and S’tarel cling closer together. They remained friends through the breakdown of Daerelle’s weyrmating with K’dren, which collapsed when he slapped her during an argument; an enraged Daerelle beat him with Sallith’s riding harness and shoved him out of their weyr, hurling his belongings out after him. However, they ran into a new problem: Seferin, who resented Daerelle for taking his mother’s place. It took turns for him to mend his relationship with S’tarel, and with Daerelle Seferin made no effort to hide his loathing.
When Seferin’s Impression of bronze Tagath won him S’tarel’s attention for a prolonged time, Daerelle slept with another rider out of spite, and turned up pregnant yet again. She kept it, insisting it was S’tarel’s because it drew his attention back to her. But when her one-night partner came forward, Daerelle was forced to admit the truth. S’tarel separated from her for nearly a Turn. This time, Daerelle swallowed her pride and begged for a second chance, one she was given only after she also made peace—of a sort—with S’ferin. She and S’tarel finally became weyrmates in Turn 9.
While Daerelle has her friends and is happy with S’tarel, she does not have the happy family she thought she’d gain. She and S’ferin have a relationship best described as cordial enmity, neither of them willing to draw S’tarel’s anger by antagonizing each other. S’gef simply avoids her. Her sons K’rell and D’ran are not close to her—Daerelle wasn’t an involved mother once she fostered her babes—and S’rell is a bitter reminder of all her mistakes. Daerelle has chosen to focus solely on Sallith and S’tarel, in that order, and make the most of what she has.
Personality Traits:
Daerelle is emotional, strong-willed and impulsive, ruled by her desires and not overly concerned with appearances. To be frank, she could care less what people think of her so long as she gets her way. That said, she is a loyal friend, if unscrupulous, and daring. Her labile ways have changed thanks to her many hard lessons and disappointments; she is wry and cynical where she used to be hot-tempered and day-dreamy. However, she is still not someone to cross. Her spiteful streak may be well-buried nowadays, but it still exists, and her vindictive nature is inextinguishable.
