Pets:
Appearance: Standing at just over 5'5 if he stands up tall, he is short, but he is surprisingly long limbed; he looks slender with narrow shoulders and slim hips, but is surprisingly wiry, with a toned musculature, strength and flexibility of a gymnast. He is very vain about his delicate, sensitive artists hands, his body and his skin or face.
He is beautifully striking looking for a young man and most would guess is from fair Northern stock, - he has deep dark red hair that he wears stick straight to his waist, despite the fact he is a Candidate, he defys the rules in that sense in refusing to cut it, but he bends enough to keep it a tight braid when on duties. He has large hooded smoky dark blue eyes that seem to have a sleepy, dreamy cast to them, pale porcelain skin with naturally flushed cheeks and full reddish lips, that seem to always have a slight upward curve, as if he is always on the verge of a smirk or a smile. He has graceful, carefully chiselled high cheekbones, nose, jaw and forehead.
He loves to wear comfortable, but flowing clothing with an androgynous bent to it and bold, daring colours, he has pierced ears.
He paints and draws and is very good. He also loves information and enjoys collecting it, if you want to know something about someone or an event going on at the Weyr, he's the one to talk to he knows lots, as people talk to him or he listens picking up information. He makes good marks out of selling his works and information as well. He can also sing in a pleasant tenor, play a lute and dances well.
Personality: A bit of a dreamer and idealist, he is loud, vivacious and the life of the party, he has a typical artist temperament - in that he is frequently moody, one moment he is all smiles and jokes, the next he is surly and sneers, for no apparent reason. He is a natural extrovert and enjoys people, company and good times. He is intelligent and has a keen wit, he does have an arrogant, egotistical, disdainful side to him.
He was also very good at listening and picking up information and not being above carrying messages or passing on information for the right incentive
He is terrified of canines and flying and of blood...the first, because his mother's canine hated his guts, and was frequently biting him and growing at him, and flying, well nobody knows that secret fear but him, and only the fact he so badly wants a dragon companion is keeping him a Candidate. He tries not to think about flying or blood..they both make him ill and dizzy..fearful and panicky...
Also ah was sexually active from a young age and has a earthy appreciation for sex and pretty boys, he can't help himself, he really is a tart of a boy, not really knowing the meaning of sticking to 1 at a time..he bed hops with frequent regularity - although deep down he longs for the love of a lifetime - a true romance to last.
History: Born Tynian at Fort Weyr..that cool climate...
He was born as the middle son to a Weyrmated pair. His mother, the source of her son's looks was spotted by his father at a Fort Gather he was attending on a whim. It was love at first sight and over several meetings she was encouraged to run away with him. That she did, taking up a position as his weyrmate and caring for their growing brood, as well as other weyrbrats in the creche.
So normal was Weyr upbringing that he has been known to make up wild stories as to where he came from, who his parents are, hinting at all sorts of hair raising escapades...
Typically growing up in a Weyr, with a dragonrider parent and with an older sibling who was a dragonrider, he dreamed of Impressing a dragon and being dragonrider. He invented stories all the time on what dragon he would Impress, sneaking into view any eggs on the Hatching Sands, watching with baited breathe every Hatching he could get to. He was also very good at listening and picking up information and not being above carrying messages or passing on information for the right incentive - no one really notices weyrbrats after all, they can just be there..
As early as possible, at 13 he began standing as a Candidates and met his good friend Cienna along the way as he transferred across 4 Weyrs, starting at Fort, Igen, Benden, Ista and back to Fort, before he gave up and thought to try one of the newer weyrs, and picked RMW all across a number of years from 13 to 19.
Apprenticing as a Harper was obvious so that's what he did with his time between cooling his heels as he waits for his dragon and he has real talent for information gathering and art, with both his surreal, dream like water colour paintings.
Finally the shame of his younger brother Impressing and his best friend giving up hope of a dragon mate, has lit a new fire under him that he is running out of time for a dragon. He believes with all his heart that his destiny is to bond to a dragon and be a dragonrider. He is throwing all his hope behind trying one last time hoping maybe his dragon might appear there..
His opinion on the Silverlight cause and the issues between ISW and the local Holders is very vocally supportive for the first and very "stupid sharding fools" towards the IS Holders...he is keeping an eye on the trouble brewing at his home weyr of Fort - through his many siblings..
Adoption?: Sure
Dragon
Bowdoth
Name: Midnight Bowdoth (bow-doth) [boʊ dɒθ]
Birthdate: 77.02.20
Age: 1
Dam and Sire: Gold Archith and Tiger Mosiliath
Hex color: 000267, 121212
Adult size: 27 feet
Appearance: As an adult he will be sleek and lean, nicely muscled, he is built for stealth as are many Moonlights. His colouring is a good mix of midnight, navy, graphite grey and black, that all blend together to make him invisible in the night sky.
He enjoys flying and swimming at night, with excellent night vision and hearing.
About: Bowdoth doesn't say much but he will say what's on his mind. He finds the company of others pleasant enough, though he'll be a roughhouser in weyrlinghood if not longer. Actions speak louder, after all. He will act whenever he gets the itch and that may put him in a tough spot with his peers but it will never be said of him that he gets little done. Bowdoth rarely holds anger or grudges, he's quick enough to provide his own shove of justice.
