Description
Silky dark brown hair falls in a cascade of messy waves around her face, down past her shoulders and to the mid of her back. Her bangs are long and tend to hang in her face constantly, covering up the hint of a small bump at the bridge of her thin and pert nose with a slightly upturned tip. Her eyes, though hazel have a tendency to show more greens than anything else, which the blackness of her lashes tend to bring out more. Her lips are on the thin side, though the seem to fit the lengthiness of her face fairly well. Her skin is already a nice deep tan as befits one of a hot and sunny climate.
She is dressed in a pair of serviceable pants, nothing too fancy, just simple linen dyed a generic brown. Her long tunic, however, is a different matter. Hanging down just past her knees, it's an eye-popping mix of a myriad assortment of colorful cloth all pieced together in a crazy quilt manner. Various stitches are used throughout it, along with an assortment of ribbons. Her lengthy hair is currently pulled back in a tail and secured with yet another ribbon. Layered over this a burnoose that is as colorful or her tunic, though this also tends to hide that fact that it is as much patched as it is crazy stitched.
Common Knowledge
Zafina likes goats, in all ways shapes and forms. On the hoof, under the fur, in her belly. A little caprine milk in her oats, some creamy butter on her bread, lovely spiced slices of meat layered in a flat bread. And even the little nuggets, fried up. She has no problems eating her caprines, or selling her caprines for others to eat. She can always breed up more. Though she will take exception to them being munched upon without recompense. After all, this is how she makwes her living.
She also trades in various sundries and things that people trade for her caprines, she rarely has much in the way of any marks on her at any given time. More trouble then they are worth in her opinion. You can't eat them after all.
She'll play the part of the fool if it pleases her, she'll even act the crazy fool. It's fun after all, and whats life without fun?
Her two canines are Bo (female) and Jynx (male). Both are whistle trained.
Relationships
History
Insane mother? Prolific father? Hmm. Zafina was doomed from the start. Or so they say. Her mother was crazier than a sun-crazed wildling. Oh wait, she was a wilding. Was being the operative word. Her father was a rider a who much loved women. Or well, anything that breathed some say. However, he did have a bit of decency in him, and spent a fair number of Turns with her mother, even bringing her north to stay with him up in High Reaches. Sadly, the cold winters really didn't agree with her mother, and one night she walked herself right off the ledge. Poor Zafi was only 4 turns at that point. So here her father was, stuck with a toddler who frequently screamed when left down in the lower caverns, and he couldn't quite fathom keeping her up in his weyr. So he did what any selfish young man will do, he fostered her off and out of the weyr and to a farming couple outside of Igen.
Well, blood will tell they say and Zafina had quite the touch of the wanderer in her and couldn't help herself in wandering off into her surroundings. This did have a tendency to cause much dismay for her foster mother who did her best to keep tabs on her. For a time she was tied to her foster mothers waist, but she would soon start to scream in frustration and would plop herself down on the ground and refuse to move. Dragging a young child is not conducive to productivity.
Next, they tried tying her to one of the canines, and this worked well, for a day. Until the two became so entangled on one of the wagons, they had to be cut free. After that, it was a matter of training one of the canines to stay with her at all times, and keep herding the child back when she strayed too far, or sit on her if she refused. This worked quite well at a few times of having to fetch the child from under the canine. She learned to listen to the canine or else find herself penned and things were able to progress again.
As time went on, she learned to be more responsible, so long as she wasn't cooped up and confined and so they set her the task of watching over the caprines. This turned out to be a great decision as she took to them, just as much as they took to her. And now her steady canine companion had not just one charge to look after but thirteen does, a wether and on occasion a buck. The kids tended to vary with the season. As she got older, she started helping in selecting the bucks to be used with the does, and over time learned how to cull out the does and kids, selecting the best to keep for breeding and those in which to use for meat.
It really didn't come to anyone's surprise when she started expressing the desire to take her herd and wander further and further afield. And though she would always return home, she kept wanting to explore her world further. Her herd of goats prospered in this time, as those that couldn't withstand the vigor's of the journeys were removed. Only the best of the best of the best, were kept, and soon she began trading on the sides. Meaty kids were quite the delicacy, and even the older ones that were past their prime provided a nice and juicy roast. So in this manner, she started earning her own keep in her own way and who knows where she might turn up next.

Green Katana
Switch-blade lean and razor sharp green this little firelizard is here to chew gum and kick ass, only she's all out of gum… or is she? Gum tree glimmers of deepest mint slashes through the scintillating uniformity of her chartreuse hide. This lean mean fighting machine is a creature of precise angles from her fierce face bones to her stiletto tipped talons. But the most impressive weapon in her arsenal is the broad blade-like wings that proudly decorate this little warrior green.
