Looks
Syleka can be easily compared to small kittens- she has that kind of happy, the-world-is-new-and-exciting attitude, despite her age. It's probably permanent, given the fact that it's present her entire life.
An avid daydreamer, it's harder for Syleka to pay attention to reality then it is for her to daydream. She'll frequently loose focus and loose herself in her mind, and if she's doing something she's used to doing, she'll start slipping off into her mind automatically. People speaking to her will frequently have to bring their attention back to her— though that's more of an issue if she's being lectured at or something. If she's actually having a conversation, she'll usually be interested enough to pay attention. Her head is securely fastened in the clouds.
She's easily-pleased— she likes simple things, and marvels at them. Clouds, for instance. She could watch those for hours. She loves insects and butterflies and pretty things to that effect, and could probably amuse herself literally watching paint dry. She's consistently fascinated by people displaying craft-skill— she'll watch the painters and smiths for hours, complimenting them, commenting on how wonderful it is that they can do such things, and asking questions— in other words, making a nuisance of herself. She's curious about everything, and will ask a billion questions if given half the chance.
Her voice is light and airy, very pleasant— much like her. She's genial and friendly, and almost doesn't understand the concept of "stranger." She's very sweet and affectionate, and enjoys being touched— patted on the head, hugged, all of that. She hasn't discovered sex yet, but she'll probably like that a lot, too.
She's very creative, though she has no art to expend it on— she contents herself thinking of strange stories. She has a fantastical mind, and can amuse children for hours with her stories. She'd try to amuse adults, too, except she doesn't think they're interested in stories. She's kind of vague, and very abstract, mentally— at times, she seems to be on an entirely different plane of reality.She's very weird, but she's also very friendly, and willing to give almost anyone a chance.
Despite all of this, she is not nonfunctional or anything of the sort. She has absolutely no issue communicating, and rather likes to do so, if you can get over the fact that she speaks airly and always seems half lost in thought. She's good at making observations and connections— she only looks like she's not paying attention. In reality, she has a good memory and a quick mind, and is very clever. She's also subtly strong and determined— she's terrified of thread since it killed her father, but instead of staying at the hold and hiding away, she came to the weyr to do all she could to help.

History
Syleka was born in Sapphos hold, but she didn't stay there very much into the part of her life where she can remember. Her family always had ties to the weyr, and when her older sister managed to Impress, her whole family moved to the weyr. Syleka was 4 at this point.
She lived relatively comfortably in the weyr, but had trouble finding her calling. She bartended for a while, and stood as a candidate between the ages of 12-14. Between candidacy periods, she would return to bartending and contemplate her lack of success on the sands. Towards the end of this period she started to get very jaded and stressed, worried that she would never impress nad be stuck bartending her whole life. Stress robbed her of sleep, and she developed a mind case of insomnia.
That enabled her to meet the watchwher handlers of sapphos. They would come in for a late drink when most of the weyr was asleep, and she would be tending the bar. She'd speak to them, and upon telling some that she became close friends with of her increasing fear that there was no dragon for her, an option became available. Forget dragons, they told her- try whers.
So she volunteered to be a wher candidate, and as was her luck, she managed to get herself an egg which she tended carefully. As was even further her luck, this egg turned out to be completely viable. After some careful tending, it broke apart into a very bright, very strange-colored baby wher.

Wher
Sylekask
Rainbow-Topaz F Wher
Sylekask is every inch as bright as her personality would have one believe. Her build is small, and not quite as stocky as one might expect from a wher— though really, that's not saying much. She's still more of a bulldog to a dragon's saluki. Her wings are small, even of a wher, and won't support her in flight. She has a dainty dished head with delicate features: a contrast to her muscular wherbulk, even if she is light for her species. Her hide is a blinding array of bright colors in random, mingling spotty patterns and splotches: bright blues, cyans, greens, yellows, pinks, oranges.. you name it, it's probably there, playing on her hide in psychedelic neon.
Firelizards
Fiji
Brown M Firelizard
Broad brown shoulders and strong, muscular jaw make this firelizard seem decidedly masculine, but still there's something oddly feminine about him. His headknobs are long and sweeping, ending in slight curls, and he walks with a dainty step, ever looking down his nose, as if he sees himself as important.
Patches
Brown M Firelizard
Rusty auburn dominates this brown's hide, especially around his headknobs. He has a relatively long muzzle; a vacant look plays upon those thin features. That rusty auburn continues down his spine, and along the top of his wings. However, his underside is a dusty sandalwood color.
What's odd about this brown is that there is a banded stripe around his neck, one that seems to ring the base of his throat. It also continues down either side of his chest, near his forelegs — like a scarf of some kind wound around his neck and hanging on his chest. The band is striped across its length in colors of cream, orange, dark brown, dark russet, and grey. These stripes are all different sizes, making for an odd, erratic pattern.
The rest of his body is as slim and lean as his face. Wingsails are a rusty brown between dark russet spars on the top, and a lighter, slightly burned brown on the bottom. The color darkens on his legs, turning to a deep olive-brown color, with dark brown talons.
