Assylem!

Assylem
A woman of 5ft with long red hair down to the middle of her back,with flashing blue eyes that stand out from her pale white face,wich is a bit pudgy,with a smallish cupids bow mouth that speaks volumes about each mood. Her figure is modest,but has curves in the right places,her arms and legs are of average lenght and a bit pudgey as well.
Assylem, originally from the Fort area, moved to the mountains of High Reaches with her family at a young age, her mother, working in the kitchens while her father tended the stables of the hold. Her life was hectic but happy save for the harshness of her father toward her. As the oldest of five children, she was constantly looking after her younger siblings, putting up with the teasing of her brothers while her younger sister flirted constantly. Finally, tired of the tension and mistreatment, she left her home with the assistance of her mother. She boarded a ship bound for the southern continent and made her way to Xanadu Hold. She approached the lady holder for a position in her kitchens and was told to make do with what she found. In her usual character, she quickly set to work and put things in order, preparing meals and sending the drudges about on tasks. She had met a man when she arrived, named Trebore, and found a fast friend in him as well as a comforting presence. He took a different kind of interest in her, much to her surprise, and the two began spending much of their time together. His attentions brought joy to her heart, though she was far to shy to return them at first. The day finally came when he kissed her and she found herself returning that kiss with far more passion than it had been given, finally showing the feelings she had been too bashful to express before. The Pioneer, Trebore's home, became her home as well and the two spent much time together there talking and getting to know each other. When Trebore became ill with heart trouble, she put her all into caring for him, sending for Alexan to bring supplies and help her tend to his needs. Something had changed in the feisty assistant cook and she put almost as much into taking care of him as Assylem did herself. After some recovery, Trebore asked Assylem to handfast with him, and she agreed. Much to her surprise, he also asked Alexan to join their family as their foster daughter and, even more surprisingly, she agreed and became part of their little family. There was trouble, Gaederon, Trebore's son, found himself faced with feelings for Alexan other than those of a brother for his sister and the two kissed twice. None of this went unnoticed by Assylem though she kept her silence and did her best to keep Trebore from worrying so. The day came, however, when Assylem found herself faced with telling Trebore news which she had discovered... she was carrying their first child. He was delighted to hear and reassured her that the child would be welcomed. This would be his first experience in knowing his own from birth and he asked her to teach him everything she knew about taking care of babies. The handfast date drew nearer and the two finally joined in the eyes of others with their family in attendance. The two disappeared for a short confinement afterward to spend the time alone that a newly wedded couple needs. The months passed and their daughter arrived, a small bundle with a shock of red hair and sparkling blue eyes named Ashore. The two spent their days together, taking care of their new child and tending the two troublesome older children; Alexan joining smith craft and breaking her ties with Merdan, Gaederon turning away from Sillvena, who had become a stranger to him. Then, another surprise, Assylem found herself expecting yet another child and spent a troublesome pregnancy doing what she could and allowing Trebore to care for her as she had cared for him. Trelem came to their family shortly after they had accepted one of her Fortian relatives, Andreia, as foster and she, by almost falling out of a barn window, unwittingly scared Assylem into labor. Now the couple have two children, Ashore and Trelem- a girl and a boy- and have moved their small family into the hold, Trebore having found another job. This time as a stablehand. Firelizards
Nishan
Golden wheat striates along supple hide, reddish brown kernals littering haunches in an artistic disarray. Pale cornhusks fill out elongated 'sails, darker lines indicating where one ends and the other begins. Lighter orange kisses smallish 'knobs before trailing down triangular ridges and glossing over a rather chubby tail.
Niami
Tall and lean, this green is quite the wonder. Her head knobs are the picture of perfection, the deep peridot that decorates them sliding down to the delicate wedge of her head giving way to a slightly frosted hue as it tumbles onto her neck. From shoulders to 'spars a light shade of spring grass has fallen, the translucent 'sails flecked in bits of silver. Back and haunches are trim but not overly thin, while the banner of her tail seems to slither after her, the spaded tip a perfect emerald.
