VruhnalayName Pronounced: Vrun-ah-LAY Appearance: Vruhnalay is 5ft7” tall and has creamy pale skin. She has a medium frame and a small build. She has very long legs, the kind most women loathe and men love. This point isn't lost on Vruhnalay, as she often wears tight trousers and high-heeled shoes to accentuate it. Personality: For someone so pampered in childhood, Vruhnalay is quite kind and considerate. She's very good with children and is an excellent mediator. At her hold her mother began allowing her to hold court in minor disputes when she was fourteen. Her mother aided her much at first, but eventually allowed Vruhnalay to take care of it by herself. Vruhnalay would listen to all sides of an argument carefully, then decide who was wrong and lay down the law. She never had sympathy for those who had done wrong. For those cases where no one was to blame, she always felt that sticking with the idea that a good compromise left everyone angry was the best way to go. Vruhnalay was also allowed to become more involved with the running of the hold as she grew older. She wasn't allowed to make many decisions by herself, but her mother's time was precious, so Vruhnalay got the lay of the land before presenting her mother with the simple facts and various solutions. History: Vruhnalay was born Prepass - 3 turns, 9th month, 13the day, in a hold near Ista. Her mother, Larayana, was the Lady of the Hold. Her father, Vunaraqu, died when she was a baby, leaving her mother in charge of the hold, supported by Vruhnalay's uncles. The hold was home to a fair few families and single people, as well as a few fosterlings. Despite the death of the Lord of the hold, it became extremely successful. Her mother proved to be better at business than her father could have ever dreamed of.
