Appearance:
Zorasn is what some might say an average looking guy. He has sandy blonde hair that hangs ever which way it pleases, and often gets in his eyes. Those of which are a smokey blue color. Some even will call them brown if they aren't careful with the lighting in which they see them. He has a proud nose, not too large but straight with a slightly barrow bridge, and lips that are a bit on the thin side. His jaw is strong and defined on his face and he like his sister has higher cheek bones that set his face at intriguing angles. Or so they have been told by others.
At 5ft 10in, Zorasn is in the middle of the pack with height. He is fine with how tall or short he is too, not caring if he is slouching or standing straight. Because of this indifference he will often be found doing both at different times. For instance one moment he will be slouching or leaning, then the next he'll move to attention just because he feels like it.
He's a thin kid as well, or young man perhaps I should say. After all, his muscles have filled out and that childhood awkwardness has left his limbs. He also has a deeper voice somewhere between a tenor and bass, with a slightly raspy quality. Generally this is from not speaking much, and so when he does his vocal chords aren't used to it. His apparel most often consists of earth toned vests, shirts and pants. All of which are durable and kept clean. Not because he is obsessive about being clean, but because it is necessary for his work.
Personality:
+sweet, calm, charming, put together, serious when working, diligent
-too relaxed, lazy, flirtatious, has a bit of a darker side when angered
Zorasn is a fairly calm and relaxed individual who chooses his words carefully especially when working. The candidate is put together from all of his training as a healer, and just from years of real life experience as well. When at work, Zorasn will take his job with utmost seriousness, and become one of the most diligent people you can ever meet. However, out of work, Zorasn tends to be much more relaxed and flirtatious even.
Able to easily slide from serious to charming and back again, Zorasn generally knows how to work most crowds. Not saying that he can with anyone, but in his past gaining attention when he needs it has never been a problem. On some bad notes, Zorasn can become to relaxed and even lazy when off duty. It takes a while for him to come back out of his periodic dazes as well. Also, when the candidate does decide to work his charm, he knows no bounds.
One thing people normally don't see in Zorasn though, is that when angered he can become very blunt and even hurtful. He won't stop to defend himself or someone else, and when he was younger even got into fights on occasion. He's grown up enough that he can move past these issues without getting into trouble, but his thoughts still shout what he wishes he could do.
History:
Zorasn's history starts with, of course, his parents. They both grew up around The Weyr, his father studying to be a healer and his mother a drudge in the kitchens. They met one sunny day when Anna burned herself badly on a hot stove. Zoreyn was called in to aid her, and you could say it was love at first site. Or you could say it was a green who had taken a mating flight. Either way, the romanticized or real version, the two were soon to become inseparable....and parents. Zorasn was first to come, his sister only hours later. They were twins, and remarkably close in resemblance to one another. That however goes in a different section.
They grew quickly, though they loved different things. Zyna wanted so very badly to become a rider, Zorasn wanted to follow his father's path and become a healer. However, even then they boy still wanted dragons to be his subject. Perhaps that was his way of acknowledging his secret yearning to be a candidate as well. His sister, born in the Weyr was automatically able to stand. To be truthful so was he. However, both Zorasn's own dreams and his father's urging kept him from the sands. Instead he studied to make his family proud.
He was there though when his sister needed him, for instance when she impressed to Airith. The green had been slightly confused at first and hurt herself during her hatching as dragonet's sometimes did. It was Zorasn that came to her aid. That story aside, the healer soon became a journeyman and started work officially at the Weyr. It was here that he was named a candidate. A dragon had chosen him despite what he had done his whole life. His father didn't want him to stand, but why not? He knew his skills now, and as a rider he could further help in the Weyr. To Zorasn this was a dream come true. Still, his father's words stay in his mind. If you were meant for a dragon boy, wouldn't this have happened sooner?
Adoption?: Yes
Dragon Preferences:
He'd probably fit well with a brown, blue, or anything hard working. That is what he'd want. Personally, I'd love something that would play on his more arrogant and darker side. He's usually relaxed, but he has the capability to be very blunt and even hurtful.
