Character Name:Cambiden (C'en or C'iden)
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Craft/Rank: Wingrider

History: The son of one of Benden's dragon riders, although he's not sure which one ((And B'tar swears he's pretty sure it's not him.)), Cam is a fairly standard Weyrbrat, growing up in the Creche and halls of Benden, and being firmly educated in the superiority of Benden and it's traditions. His life until this point has been fairly unremarkable, with the exception of a few rounds of trouble for starting very wild rumors, though he claims he wasn't -actually- trying to start a panic among some of the younger set talking about highly intelligent felines starting an uprising and planning to break into the Weyr. It was, after all, just a possibility and it's not his fault people took it out of proportion before he could prove it one way or another. Also he was only 7 turns then. That counts for something, right?

Description:
Cam has thick black hair, which he wears cut so short that it tends to stand straight up. as soon as it grows out at all, it starts displaying a rather lovely wave, enough to make many girls envious... and Cam furious. He loathes his hair, not realizing that if grown out, it might actually be a selling point for some girls.
He's moderately attractive, in a sort of middle of the road fashion, with a mouth that lapses easily into a smile, although one of his front teeth is just a little crooked. Although it would be easier to make jokes about his personality if his eyes were brown, they're not, and are as startlingly black as his hair, which gives him a particularly intense stare. He tans easily, and turns quite brown in a lot of sun, and is sort of pleasantly indifferent to his own appearance.


Personality:
Cam, born and raised in the halls of Benden, is an interesting specimen. Inquisitive and fascinated by riddles and puzzles, he's also a fine example of (Near Olympic level) conclusion jumping. If there's a potential for an really exciting version of events, Cam is the first to see the 'obvious connections' the answers provide. Infertility among Benden's dragons? Clearly a conspiracy by the newer Weyrs to overthrow the proud traditions of Pern. Mistweed? Also a conspiracy, and probably assisted by ungrateful Holders, who find it all too easy to forget how necessary Pern's dragons are until Thread comes back around. The truth is out there, and he can prove it... somehow.

One of his saving graces in his certainty that the world is full of far far more intrigue than it usually is is that he doesn't charge head long into a situation and toss out his wild accusations, though he's more than willing to share them with close friends who he thinks will take him seriously, though a single snicker can cost you your chance to hear the next round of theories, at least until you can soothe your way back into his good graces.
