Rider;
Name: Tyaesur (also goes by Tyr)Age: 19 years old
Gender: Male
Rank: Discharged Rider | Assistant to Candidatemaster Venk
Appearance: Tyaesur stands approximately at 5'11" and weighs in at a solid 185lbs. He is toned, and has grown into his shoulders with help from life in the military. Tyr has a young, almost roguish like youthful appearance. Due to his being discharged, he has allowed a slight 5 o'clock shadow to grow in defiance of his being honorably discharged. He has plans to let his hair grow out, but must wait on this to occur naturally as he not that long ago did his Impress with Taldrith. Currently Tyaesur’s hair is short and close to the head. He has a natural tan to his skin and is olive toned in nature. He has sea-green colored eyes, and needs no kind of corrective script for them thankfully. His manner of dress is simple; he isn't one to fuss about fancy clothes or having nice jewelry to wear. Much to his frustration and dismay, he now walks with a permanent limp on the left side and has to rely on either Taldrith or a cane to easily move around.
Personality:
+ Hard Working
+ Brave
+ Dedicated
- Cocky
- Reckless
- Secretive
When you need to get something done, you can be sure that Tyaesur will see to the task. This former discharged rider is a go-getter and takes life by the reigns and rarely lets much stand in his way. He is a man of action, and does not like to sit back and watch. He is as stubborn as his dragon companion, and refuses to let pain stop him from living. Tyr is hard working, and relentless in achieving what he's set out to do. He involves himself readily, and invests time and effort into studying to be a better assistant now that his future has been forever altered.
For all his aspirations, and patience with teaching he is not the type to share what is on his mind in terms of his private life. Tyaesur would rather suffer in silence then burden those around him with his personal thoughts and feelings. He is relatively private, and keeps to himself and rarely complains, if ever. While depression sometimes eats at him, he puts on a front as to not worry anyone or make them think less of him.
While he is now considered and namely labeled as disabled, Tyaesur is sure one stubborn human being. It didn't take him long to get up and walking, even if it was with a cane's assistance. Ambitious and eager to please, he doesn't take into consideration the dangers of a situation. Tyaesur puts his heart and soul into everything he does and takes full responsibility for his actions when needed. He is the type that plunges ahead full speed, and rarely looks back until it comes back to bite him of course.
On the flip side Tyr doesn't like take no for an answer, at least not without good reason. While he is obedient and mindful of his superiors he doesn't like being perceived as useless or weak. In fact, it flat out pisses him off when someone says he can't do something. Even if it takes him years to re-learn he is determined to one day ride on Taldrith's backside again even if it isn't for military related purposes.
Nothing is impossible in his mind, and he does whatever it takes to apply himself. Tyr is the definition of if there is a will, there is a way. He'll find ways to prove other people wrong even when they look down on him. He is brave, and willing to face adversity even in the most trying of times.
History: Born to a poor farming family, Tyaesur always dreamed of a life beyond the simplistic mundane one he'd been born into. His mother and father were loving parents, and did their best to provide for their children. They had a total of five children between them, and Tyr is the youngest of t he bunch. His siblings helped tend the farm, as did he even if had ideas of something more. Military life was all he'd ever wanted, even as a young child. Dragons and their riders were the men and woman to be admired, revered even. It was any wonder that as soon as he was eligible at the age of 14 he joined. Tyaesur never looked back, and applied himself in full, never complaining and doing as he was told so long as it got him closer to his end goal. Riding.
When a searchrider came to the small village the family called home, his parents were initially reluctant to let go of their youngest child. He was hard working, and dedicated and the hands on the farm could always be used. His begging and pleading however earned him a heartfelt and tearful farewell by days end when he left. He promised to come back, and show them how much he’d learned at his journeys end. Tyr always keeps his promises, now would be no different his family reasoned.
While training was not easy, he took to without complaint. Tyr could read basic letters, so having a chance to expand on this was rewarding for the then young man. Physical combat and self defense was perhaps one of his favorite subjects. He'd been a rough and tumble child, and didn't mind the physical nature of training.
Having nearly completed his training, Tyr was easily on top of the world. He had achieved the rank of Squire, something he'd waited nearly all his life for. Serving under the squiremaster Adraer'un of blue Maehth, Tyr aspired to join the 2nd wing just like her. She was everything he imagined a great rider to be; beautiful, smart, talented. While firm with him when needed, Adra reminded him greatly of the family he missed. She often treated him like her kid brother, and found his antics amusing. Tyr was excited, and all too eager to kick off his career as a rider and join his long time childhood dreams.
Tyr's Impress on the dragon Taldrith came without much difficulty. The pair are inseparable, and Taldrith is protective of his rider even if he cannot currently ride him any-longer as a result of Tyr's tragic accident shortly before his graduation was scheduled to occur. Taldrith is fully grown at 18 months old, and is a lively, spirited dragon that tries to keep Tyaesur happy the best the creature can.
As fate would have it, misfortune struck one afternoon during flight practice. This resulted in Tyaesur falling from his mount. A strap was loose, faulty and ended in his slipping and plummeting to the ground below. Much to his squiremaster's distress, there was nothing she could do but watch in horror. He'd flown out of formation, and while showing off was not unheard of her Squire paid the ultimate price for his reckless action. The fall resulted in his left hip shattering on impact, and with it went his hopes and dreams of serving in the 2nd Wing. He has since been honorably discharged, and currently is struggling within himself to find a foothold in the world. Additionally as he was so close to graduation, he regrettably was not able elide his name either.
Perhaps the only saving grace in this tragic tale is that he was given a new direction and purpose in life. While it was not something Tyaesur considered in his younger years of life, he was recently allowed to take up a position with Candidatemaster Venk in order to help him out with his duties. Teaching and helping prospective candidates might not be as glamorous as the 2nd Wing, but it has given Tyr a sense of purpose again.
Dragon;
Name: Taldrith
Age: 18 months old
Colour: Blue
Feel of Voice: His dragon has the Call of the Sea as Tyr refers to it. This dragon’s Feel of Voice brings up powerful images of the ocean. They manifests in a number of ways including in smells, sounds and even visions of the sea and things that accompany it. While Tyaesur has never been to the ocean personally, being around Taldrith brings on a sort of wanderlust for a place he has yet to have visited. From the scent of the sea, to the calling of gulls, or the rolling of the tides all of these are possible for the dragon to pass off. Sometimes the sounds of sails in the winds also accompany these thoughts and feelings.
Appearance: Taldrith is a blue dragon with rather unique and downright elaborate hide patterns scattered across his frame. While one of the smaller dragon species, Taldrith is decent sized and by no means tiny for his breed. He is of both average size and weight for a blue dragon.
Personality:
+ Confident
+ Energetic
+/- Stubborn
+/- Prissy
- Troublemaker
If confidence could be personified into the form of a dragon then you can look no further than this blue. Taldrith is a prissy, look at me and how amazing my hide is kind of guy. If he can show off, or get someone to admire him other than his rider he's all for the showboat game. Taldrith simply likes to show off because he can, and enjoys stealing the spotlight. He's amazing to look at as his rider has assured him many times as a youngster and the mind-set stuck with the dragon.
This dragon is known to strut his stuff for those willing to pay him mind. He is mostly happy go lucky for both himself and namely Tyaesur well-being, as he knows his human is prone to depression. The young dragon goes out of his way to do silly little things for his human to try and cheer him up on a regular basis. While it saddens him they can't fly together currently, it hasn't changed his view on their bond and intends to stay with the male for the rest of their natural days.
Taldrith is bold, and confident and unshakable in his resolve much like his human. He's a bit of a mischief maker, and tends to try and get into treats or goodies that are meant to be special because he knows he can get away with it. While he isn't very good at sharing, he truly has a heart of gold and his intentions are mostly pure. Although having a little bit of fun along the way never hurt anybody.
