Pern Wiki

Printer

Rosheen was a Printercraft printer during the Ninth Pass. Her spouse was Masterprinter Tagetarl. She had a gold fire lizard named Ola.

Biography[]

Rosheen was particularly good at typesetting. Her fast fingers could set up a page quicker than Tagetarl could. After Rosheen prepared a newssheet about the Fireball, Rosheen and two apprentices handed them out as fast as they could.

When Runners discovered an Abominators plot, then passed the information on to Pinch, who passed it on to Tagetarl, Tagetarl was hesitant to inform Rosheen because of her recent presentiments. But, when he finally told her about the plot, she did not react the way he thought she would. She was mostly upset about the fact that he let her go through the entire day oblivious to everything.

Rosheen was comforted by the fact that, since Menolly had helped her train Ola, Menolly sent her fire lizard Beauty to help Ola keep an eye on things around the Printercrafthall.

Personality and Traits[]

When the Abominators tried to attack Tagetarl late one night at the Printercrafthall, Tagetarl told everyone that, after one man broke the glass and the door to the hold, Rosheen flattened him with her iron skillet. But, even though she had actually used the iron skillet, Rosheen said she had tripped him with the broom.
