Non-Craft Rank:  Spinner/Weaver

Minor Hold Name: Tau Cothold






Brief Description of Persona:


  • Yasna was an attractive woman in her day, but the hard life of cotholding have taken their toll.  Her once vibrant chestnut hair is now totally grey.  Wrinkles and lines show the hard work and life she has lived.  She seems to have a permanent scowl on her face but this is only because she constantly has to worry about her only grandchild Yoshan. 


    


  • Brash, bold, blunt and bubbly can all be used to describe Yasna. Life has not been kind to Yasna and she now looks at everything with either brutal skepticism or stark reality.  Many have been the times people have left her company in tears or in rage as she has stated the naked truth of life to them.  Or her blunt honest opinion.  She is only smiling and happy when at her loom and with her close family members.  Her worst habit is her gossiping.  If there's anything to be known within several hundred miles of Tuan Cothold, Aunt Yasna knows it. 


    
Brief History of Persona:
    

  •  Born and raised at Tuan Cothold, Yasna is the youngest sister of Mugen's Father.  She was sent to the Weaver Hall at Coral Reef Hold at the age of twelve in hopes that she would learn a craft and eventually marry well.  Unfortunately, at the age of seventeen, she got pregnant by a fellow weaver.  The young man quickly went on a journey once he found out and never came back.  Yasna went back to Tuan to have her daughter.  Not long after the birth of her daughter, she was offered a proposal by a farming neighbor of Mugen's families.  He was a widower with no children and thought the marriage would be a good one.

With nothing better looming in her future, Yasna agreed.  THe combining of the bordering farms proved profitable.  As Yasna's daughter grew and married the son of another cotholder, the families thrived.  Yasna's daughter and son-in-law, along with their baby, eventually moved in to help with the farming.  For once, everything was wonderful in Yasna's life.  Then the quake hit.

    

The devastation the quake left in it's wake was brutal.  Yasna and her granson were the only survivors of their immediate family.  She had been at Mugen's cothold helping spin llama wool when the quake hit.  Once it was over, the whole family left for Yasna's cot.  Noone had survived at the tiny farm that had been sitting on a fault line.  Yasna was left alone with her grandson, Yoshan. 

With nothing left of the farm, Yasna and the then twelve turn old Yoshan, moved into Mugen's Cothold where they have been living for the last five years.
