First Name: Chrysicai Honorific: Cai Nicknames: Cai Date of Birth: 31.12.2977 (23) Place of Birth: Healer Hall Gender & Sexuality: Transmasculine (afab, prefers singular they pronouns or he/him) | demisexual Pet(s): Gold Firelizard Agrimony
Appearance:
Genetics did Cai a favor when it comes to physical appearance. Cai stands at a modest but acceptable 5'8" with a generally narrow frame from top to bottom. Determined effort has broadened and defined the muscles of their upper torso and arms, giving them a slightly more triangular silhouette while ensuring their ability to keep up with the often grueling demands of being a healer.
Their skin is fair and bears the dragons share of perns freckle allotment it seems, covering almost every inch of exposed flesh. More often than not it appears flushed either with sun, or high emotion as Cai's natural reaction to anything is to turn bright red. The short fluffy mess of hair atop Cai's head is a vibrant orange color in no way resembling a pretty sunkissed blond, nor warm russet. It is just orange. Given time to grow, it may take on a more yellowish tint, but there will be no escaping that eyecatching shade until it is taken over by age.
Cai's grey eyes are set beneath thick straight brows and are only a shade or two lighter than average. Their pointed chin and jawline could be potentially described as strong, or stubborn depending upon your tastes and Cai's nose is neither particularly long nor short, though the tip does turn up just a bit.
Personality:
Controlling: Sit Down. Shut Up. Do as I say or get out of my way. Cai is In Charge and you'll just have to deal with it. They need to have their fingers in every little pie and everything needs to go as they expect it to. Cai is very much the micromanager. They'll constantly be on others backs, making sure they're doing their work properly. Cai doesn't so much agree with lazing about. There are things to be done and people need to do them NOW not later or when they feel like it. Someone OBVIOUSLY needs to take control of these unruly kids and get them into shape! Cai believes their doing what's best for the Weyr and it's inhabitants though many will just find them bossy. Passionate: Cai strongly believes in what they do. They love their home and want what's best for it. Whether that means challenging old ideas and traditions or upholding them Cai'll do everything within their power to improve the lives of everyone in the Weyr according to his idea of how it should be. Cai values self motivators and those with a strong work ethic as well as education and people with open minds (even if that can be a touch hypocritical). Lack of faith in others: Cai has little trust in others abilities. Unless they can prove they know what their doing repeatedly and to a standard that Cai considers at their own level or above then Cai'd rather do a job themself and get it done 'right' the first time rather than let someone else half a** it, even if the results are adequate. If your method differs from Cai's and you can prove without a doubt that it is infact superior than their own then don't expect Cai to leave you alone to it. Honest: Cai doesn't like people arguing with them. Their very stubborn and set in their ideas. Things will go a LOT smoother if you'll just do as they say. As a healer Cai's shown a talent for it. Their serious attitude applies itself well to their chosen career though their bedside manners leave much to be desired. In fact Cai's quite blunt in telling you the truth and exactly what they think. While some find their abrupt honesty tactless, others may appreciate that they don't dance around an issue. High Strung: Cai internalizes a lot of emotion and stress. Their need for control of their external situation often comes from a pessimistic and anxious mind automatically jumping to the worst possible scenarios at any given moment. Cai's highly defensive and protective of their own privacy and an insistence that yes, everything is ok and no one should worry about them at all because they have things under control if people would just leave them alone and let them work! Cai's driven to keep their mind busy so as not to dwell on things and any idle time must be filled with productive tasks to stave off anxiety. Responsible: Duty comes first. Cai takes immense satisfaction in a job completed well. Being useful, helpful and dealing with problems before they arise are Cai's main goals in life and what keep them happy in their day to day life. Larger goals see them getting their masters knots in healing, and furthering their studies and Perns medical knowledge and expertise. Not only do they want to know and put to use all of their current knowledge, they want to be able to expand upon the practices already in place. They want to perfect what methods they have that work well and find better alternatives to those who don't.

* 2977, Newborn J'woman Healer Avachri gives birth to a child she conceived with a young greenrider who'd visited the hall some months past. They weren't a couple in the romantic sense, but they were friends and when Avachri expressed interest in having a child yet none in a relationship she approached her friend. Sicayris agreed to father it. Cai was born and raised in the Healer's Hall with his mother and sporadic visits from his father.
* 2985, 8 Cai insists upon becoming an apprentice at the Healer Hall rather than accept an offer to move to Eamane with his father and become a candidate when he comes of age. This is a surprise to his parents as Cai often greeted his father's dragon more enthusiastically than the man himself and it was well known that the child talked to the green directly. Cai had also shown an attraction to other visiting riders, often requesting to be introduced to their dragons.
Cai had his reasons for not wanting to go to the weyr though. As much as he loved dragons, he found them rather noisy when there was more than one or two of them at the Hall. It would be some time before he, or anyone else, figured out exactly why.
* 2990, 13 Cai graduates to their journeyman knots after preforming very well in their studies over the past five turns. By now it has been generally suspected, but unspoken of that Cai was a HAD. Cai himself was disinclined to discuss it as it had little impact on his craft and his lessons at this point. Nor had he accepted any invitations to the weyr. After gaining his knots Cai opted to stay at the Hall and begin work on their Master's knots, hoping to gain them early if he worked hard enough while also exploring different specialties and honing his craft.
* 2992, 15 Cai begins focusing his training on herbalism and the mixing of medicines.
* 2994, 17 Cai begins traveling to various holds around Southern, spending about a turn in each to gain practical experience and to expose him to a life outside of the Healers Hall. He gladly accepts transportation by dragon, but declines any attempt to assign him a position in one of the two weyrs.
* 2997, 20 Cai receives a gold firelizard egg as a thank you from his current hold for spectacular service in saving the lives of a family who's cothold had caught fire in the night. It had been a long process but under his care and that of the few healers he'd requested from the Hall upon receiving the burned family (the other healers had also received eggs from one of the local's clutches) all five members had survived and in time would be able to return to fairly normal lives.
* 2999, 22 Cai returns to the Healers Hall for further study, thinking to stay there for the next decade or so before he began to petition the MasterHealer for a review of his case for early Master status.
* 3000, 23 Cai is summoned to a council of masters to discuss his career plans and to as nicely as possible let him know that for them to allow him to progress they've decided he must spend some time working in the weyr based upon his current skillset, his success in treating burns, and their suspicions that he is in fact a HAD and not just 'fond' of dragons as he'd always said. Cai is less than happy about this but is not about to let his training stagnate and agrees to a open-ended assignment to the Weyr. If it is true that he is a HAD and living in the weyr becomes to much, he will be allowed to cut short his term and return to the Hall with no negative consequences. If it is something he can handle, then he will stay at least five turns working with the riders, weyrlings and lowercaverns workers who are most likely to encounter burns as well as tending to the generic illnesses and injuries of weyrlife.
His father, S'ris, is the one who transports him to the weyr and gets him settled. With a little monetary influence on the rider's part, Cai is put up in a decent sized room in the lower caverns near the infirmary and is supplied with a 'nest egg' to purchase any necessities as he needs them until his own salary starts coming in. He was also kind enough to spread the word among his wing and what riders he's friends with to have their dragons 'keep it down' because of a potential HAD in residence. It might not do much, but he was putting in the effort to make his child as comfortable as possible in the one place he hadn't wanted to be. For this Cai could respect the man.
