Personality:
Castile is a very fiery, and often clever, child. She is also not afraid to speak her mind, this boldness has gotten her into more then a little trouble at times. Although she is always smiling, in her head she is over thinking things very quickly. She is witty, cheerful and happy, and all this combines to make her, well, her. She is a very passionate person due to her spirited temperament and easily excitable about some things. While a creature of passion, she is not the sort of person to be overwhelmed by her emotions. She speaks what she feels, when she feels it, and doesn't care what someone else may think of it. She means what she says. She has 'No filter between brain and mouth' as her grandfather once put it. This doesn't mean she goes out of her way to insult people. Her clever nature also takes a hand into play, allowing her to think quickly and sometimes trick people if the need arises. If the situation is bad, she will use her wits to change her tactics or the way she appears to act, almost to the point of seeming manipulating.
She has a high awareness of self-confidence, she is Proud but not vain. Castile does not see herself as beautiful or even pretty, but simply, as Castile. She has no use for words of vainity and often uses the terms 'Beautiful' to describe flowers. When given a challenge she accepts it without hesitation, not out of arrogance but pride. She feels she has to prove herself to those around her; but she will admit when she is wrong or if she cannot do something. She isn't afraid to ask for help and accepts any punishment she is given, with little to no argument. Though she is stubborn, she knows when to admit she is in the wrong. She doesn't have a large ego despite her pride, but she is aware of what she can and cannot do. This doesn't mean that she won't push herself to prove a point. She may not do it better, she may not even be able to do it, but she will try. Determination is her strongest point.
One of her weak points is her temper. Because she is fiery her temper can be very bad. She becomes sarcastic and easily frustrated, even a bit cranky. When goaded or prodded too hard, her anger emerges with scathing and harsh remarks. She has trouble controlling her temper but she never throws tantrums, and ignores the smaller issues. When she cries or feels weak, she gets even angrier and her pride comes to the surface. She will belittle herself or put herself down when she loses her temper, and she has trouble holding her tongue. If someone keeps pushing her or prodding, once her temper flares beyond normal, she has no problem with starting a fist fight. As of late she's been trying other ways to release her anger.
Castile can be just as kind as she can be nasty, often taking the heat for others actions and helping those in need. She isn't one to be bullied or let bullies run rampet, and is often found around the less fortunate. Any fights or hurt feelings she tries to sooth with a gentle smile and a quiet deed. She isn't one to hold grudges and in fact gets quite sad or depressed over any trouble she has caused. She in turn pushes this away and throws herself into any work she gets with a righteous passion to make up for it. She isn't clingy and knows when she isn't needed. She doesn't push herself on people.
For a long while Castile kept to herself, being very untrusting of those around her. She also rarely spoke. As such her voice sometimes takes on a husky quality. She has a habit of zoning out deep in thought, and thus, is considered clumsy on these occasions. She has random bursts of high energy and bouncing cheer, but these are few and far between. She has become more of a deep thinker.
Appearance:
Castile has slightly-thick long hair that falls in faint curls down below her shoulder blades and to about mid-back. They are a deep dark black with a slightly brown tint. During the winter her hair loses it's curl and is more wavy while in summer it gets a somewhat tighter curl, depending on the humidity. She has recently acquired a light grey-brown stripe on the left side, towards the back, from stress (More a dull brown then grey). Her hair is usually worn lose or tied back in a tail with a leather cord, though for formal events her hair may be placed into a bun or many small braids. Her hair is soft and bangs are kept long, falling to her shoulders or pulled back.
Castile has a very Soft, oval face, with gently rounded jawbones. She has thin arching brows which are a slightly lighter brown in color, and thick black lashes. Her eyes are almond shaped, and hooded, with the inner corners pointing down like a cats. Her eyes are very light in color, Hazel with a blue tint. The bridge of her nose is slightly thick, but not overly so as it fits her face. Lips are graceful with a dipped cupids bow, corners are upturned in a smile. Lower lip is fuller then upper. She has many smile-lines and a light crows-feet. Her cheeks keep a natural, barely pink tint and she has been known to have very light, dark circles under her eyes from lack of sleep.
Castile's body is of a slender-shaped build, with very light peach colored skin, darkened from hard work in the sun as of late, to a light dusting of gold. Her body is very curvy around her hips with well toned legs and arms for a female. She has a faint stomach, a medium chest and a round bottom. Her fingers are slender, built for more detailed work or harvesting, that are somewhat scarred and calloused. Along the top of her left shoulder, running down to the end of her shoulder blade is a very dark faded scar from a long-ago accident. Along the upper part of her right thigh, running half-way down to her knee are four dark, jagged scars from a wher's claws.

Summer age 0 - Summer age 11
Castile had a happy life, Born to Benden hold, well as happy as a girl such as she could, being raised with her grandparents. She and her elder brother were raised vastly different. She had no desire to be a proper bread young lady and stuck with many of the village boys and their rowdy ways. Wanting everything to be a vinter like her grandfather who she saw as her father figure. She was too young to remember her parents deaths, and she never asked. Never questing why her 'parents' were so old. Her brother knew, but said not a word. As his younger sister was always very carefree, he didn't want to dampen that mood.
Around 8 Turns old, Castile had been hiding in the vineyards playing under the masses of grapes that grew and were ready for harvesting. Some of the vines hadn't produced or they were dying with no fruits, so they had to be ripped up and replanted. Due to a bad summer the ground was hard, and had to be dug up with heavy tools. Her brother, around 14 turns by this time, with her only 8 turns, was helping the workers and didn't see his sister as he brought the hoe down to loosen the earth under one such plant until she screamed. They had been at odds ever since.
She chose to avoid her brother after that, untrusting of him and thus, uncaring. Shirking her duties to be a lady even more, but helping her grandmother none the less, until she sank into old age and finally passed away leaving the duties of the house on a much unprepared Castile. She knew how to run the household, she just didn't want to. Instead tossing the duty off to one of the more experienced workers of the house and going deeper into vinting.
Summer age 11- Fall age 14
Turn by turn she grew up under her Elder grandfathers strict hand, and her brothers cold eye. She finally gave up on being an apprentice under her grandfathers teaching. Their winery continued to produce delicious red wine, with her elder brother taken as her grandfathers official heir. Though her grandfather taught her the basic tricks and trade all her life, he never shared his secrets with her. Her grandfather was very strict in wanting her to become Lady of the household, she, due to her fiery temperament, did not. One day upon finding his book of notes she made a copy, and began practicing his secret trade on her own.
The vineyard had been struggling through droughts and chaos as the Summer continued and heat rose to it's highest points. Tensions ran high in the family during this time. Castile, now 16, continued to refuse the duties of the House Lady, turning away all proposals made for her hand. Much to her Grandfathers displeasure she began picking fights with any suitor who approached her, soon she was left alone.
Castile continued her practices diligently, reclusing to her room more often then not. One such morning, an argument broke out between her and her grandfather on what She Must do for her family. The end result was a bitter parting. If she didn't want to do as told, she could leave. And so she did, taking with her a few provisions she embarked without a second thought, simply to prove she could. Castile had not left before now due to a sense of duty and comfort she felt from her family, but she had grown fed up. In an impulsive decision, castile went to Apprentice at the Crafthall.
Fall Age 14-summer age 16
Castile traveled to the Crafthall and began to apprentice under a series of new masters. Cutting most ties with her family Castile threw herself diligently into her practice. The training proved tedious at points, and she had been reprimanded more then a few times. Castile spent the next two and a half turns practicing under the crafthalls teachings. At the age of Sixteen Castile was requested to return home by her Master. Castile fought against this decision, but her masters choice was set in stone.
Summer- Age 16
Upon being dismissed, Castile returned home. Despite their differences, Castile had found she missed her family. Upon returning she found her grandfather had passed, and managed to reconcile with her brother. Castile had been dismissed for multiple experimentation's of making other wines outside of what an Apprentice was allowed to study, and letting those experimentation's eat into her lessons. Castile spent most of her time since then working out in the Vinyards and taking care of the family home, (Much to her distaste), while her brother went to the Crafthall to find a new teacher and walk the tables. Castile continued her practices at home, but eventually found Vinting was not her calling. Castile began looking for other crafts she could work on, but aside from vinting, nothing had caught her interest. Castile was in a rut. Until the end of fall.
Around the ending of fall, Castile was searched. After giving it a careful consideration, she agreed to go. She was taken to Benden Weyr where she stayed most of the fall and winter. After a bit of settling in, Castile asked to transfer to Dalibor Weyr. Her reasoning behind the request, was that she wanted something different. Upon Transferring, Castile was stationed at Dalibor for six months, she Stood in her first hatching, and that was when she fully decided she wanted to be a dragon Candidate. At Wenth's most recent clutch, she did not impress. While this did cause her to be a little sad, she did not mind. Knowing there would be more chances in the future, and things to occupy her in the meantime. Since leaving Benden behind, Castile has began to open up to other people more, and attempt to make friends.
Dragon Preference:
Mauling: Sure! Go for it! Just...don't kill her <<. She can even loose a limb if its severe enough (Though I'd prefer she walk away with deep scars or something instead!) Maulings happen. And sometimes they can't be avoided.
Colors: Color doesn't Matter to me, so long as it's not a blindingly white, Green or pink or etc. Bright colors tend to hurt my eyes, so I usually prefer more muted colors such as dark red, black, grey, deep purples, etc. Most yellows don't bother me unless it's a NEON yellow, such as like, sunflower yellow.
Whers: Dragon or Wher doesn't matter. Castile prefers Dragons, I personally don't mind either way ^^ I have both a Wher and Dragon Candidate on other sites.
Rank: Like color, It doesn't matter. If it's female, I would prefer to be able to clutch (As I haven't had that experience yet!) But males and non clutchers work just as well. I'm not picky.
Firelizards: I love. Firelizards. Almost more then I love Dragons. Because they are just as fun to play <3
