Name: V'ren
Name PreImpression:Verren
Age: 70 (3003.05.01)
Gender:Male
Rank: Weryling
Sexuality: Hetero
Appearnce:Verren is about an inch shorter than Toshom, standing about 6'1". His hair is long and black instead of the light blond of his brother. His eyes are a deep green with dark areas, making them resemble a forest as seen from above.
Scars lace across various parts of Verren's body, due to the injuries he received through out his life. Most of them are hidden, often under neutral clothing though on rare occasions he'll be found in something more vibrant. The scars are mostly across his back, neck, and some are on his chest. There are few on his arms. He has a crook in his nose where it broke and didn't heal right.
Personality: Verren is generally very playful. He's the last person you'd look to as a leader. He can often be foud shirking his responsibilities for a swim at the lake or flirting with the ladies. He's quite the charmer most of the time, though sometimes he can just get on a girl's last nerve.
While most of the time he comes off with this playful personality, Verren also can be very solemn, particularly when he thinks of his past, and more recently, his falling out with his brother. Other times fear strikes in his eyes, mostly when dealing with punishment from authority figures. That's when he tries to hide from the rest of the world. At other times he can also have a short fuse, striking out verbally and if you push hard enough at these times he'll result to the same methods his father used.
Most of what Verren shows people is just that, all for show. He hides behind the blank look that lingers in his eyes and the fake smiles. You'll see what you think he should feel, and nothing more. He doesn't always realize this is happening. It is as much a defense mechanism as a learned behavior. Emotion is weakness... Weakness is unacceptable and should be punished
History: Toshom and Verren grew up in a hold on the Southern continent. Their mother died when they were three turns old by way of drowning. Toshom fell into a river while reaching for a flower he intended to give his mother and she fell in pulling him out. She managed to get ahold of the bank long enough thrust the child into his fathers arms, but when he tried to pull her out she slipped and the current pulled her under and away.
From that day forward Toshom and Verren could do no right and when they did wrong they were beaten. Not just a swat to the butt or a smack on the mouth.. but beaten bloody. They came home late for supper, they didn't eat and were beaten until their father was satisfied they'd learned their lesson. They didn't do their chores in a timely fashion and they were beaten until they lost consciousness and often then some. No matter how small the offense, it was a reason to hurt them.
Of course, he was careful most of the time. They only ended up in the infirmary ten percent of the time. At the age of sixteen they were searched by Rainbow Mists Weyr, but as they were gathering their few belongings their father went into a rage.
The first Verren knew that their father had managed to catch them was when he heard the "thump" of the two men hitting the ground. He whirled around and froze. His entire body was stock still as he watched his father and brother rolling about on the ground, one trying to avoid the knife coming at him the other aiming to kill in his blind rage. Something in his mind prodded him to move.. to help his brother as his brother had helped him so many times in the past, but he couldn't summon the will to move.
A blur of blue from his right signaled that the time for such a decision had past and this was confirmed as his father brought the knife down one last time. It quivered in Toshom's chest as the man fled, racing as far from the scene as his legs would carry him.
Verren finally found the will to move, but only enough to get to his brother and sink to his knees. They were loaded onto the dragon after that and taken to the Weyr, where Verren spent every spare moment with his brother. When he wasn't by his side, Verren instructed Manon to stay with him.
A turn later, just as his brother had been allowed to stand for the clutch, he decided to abandon him in favor of whatever lay north. Verren couldn't not understand his brother's decision to leave him behind and it left a bitterness in his heart that would take time to heal.
While his brother was away Riakalith's clutch hatched. A Crimson attacked some of its siblings before a bronze of the clutch could take him between, sacrificing himself in the process. One green in particular was badly injured and left bleeding on the sands. The weakened green cried out to him even as Verren pleaded for it choose someone and live... if only so the bronze's sacrifice would not be in vain. As soon as her mind brushed his, he rushed to her side and cried for help to anyone who would hear, earning him the help of Zara and Illyrmiath.
He cared for his Lith in the dragon wing of the Infirmary for many months before she was healed enough to exercise her wings and join him at the lessons. She herself has only recently begun taking short flights, well behind the rest of her class in that respect, and is not yet strong enough to carry her rider in fight.
Verren involved himself in the food fight that took place a short while after the flood at Stormy Plains. Feeling guilty for his actions after a stern lecture, Verren took it upon himself to starve himself as punishment. While the punishment was initially only to last a sevenday, he found reasons that it should last longer until at last his body could not handle it and he passed out. He was carried to the infirmary and nursed back to health.
He attended the hatching of Rainbow Marmee's clutch and there Impressed to a Lazy Dark Blue and a Moonlight.

Appearance: Manon is a chocolate brown with swirls of lighter browns through out his hide. His wing sails are a deeper shade of brown that is reminiscent of mahogany.
Personality: Manon is very protective and almost motherly towards Verren. He has a tendency to scold the boy if he pushes too far/hard with his flirting and give noises to show his exasperation when Verren is "at it again", but if anyone ever tried to hurt his bonded, they would be up against one fearsome firelizard.
History: Manon's egg was found on the beach as the tide was rising near the hold the twins grew up in. There were three other eggs, but Toshom feared the water and Verren had been well up the beach when he spoted them. He only had time to grab the one egg before the water was touching him. He raced up the beach to show Verren his find but the egg began to shake in his hand as he reached his twin. It fell to the ground and the brown feel from the egg a moment later. Verren scooped it up before Toshom could and stuffed the half of meatroll that was meant for his lunch into its mouth. Impression occurred immediately.
Verren hid Manon when they got home that night, but when his father began to beat him the firelizard, though young, was quick to come to his bonded's defense. A good swat knocking it from the sky was enough to force it between and From then on Verren told him to stay in a cove at the beach at night... pressing the importance of this on the firelizard's mind.. That night was one of the times he found himself waking in the infirmary.
