My original lumberjack idea that was so rudely interrupted and cut off by two self important Daewl concepts...
Here he finally is, and I think that this is the last of the concepts keeping me awake at night. For now. @_@;

PART I. PHYSICAL
Full name:: Jayden
Reasons for the name(s):: His adoptive mother gave it to him.
Sex:: Male
Apparent Age/Approximate Age:: Appears mid to late twenties, maybe early thirties.
If he/she was alive during the massacres, was he/she bonded? To whom? He was found as an egg shortly after the massacres and adopted into an Afya family after he hatched.
Rank:: Afya
If a Daewl, what is his/her one power?:: N/A
Skin Tone/Apparent Race:: Olive skin tone with a tan, possibly Spanish or Italian.
Height:: 6’7’’
Weight/Body Build:: Big and beefy, but keeps in shape via hard labor and carpentry.
Hair:: Black, thick and wavy, which he keeps short but messy. He has a full beard that he keeps trimmed (no neck beard, it’s not longer than about half an inch, and the borders are even and clean kept). ((I found this amusing little picture [x] that shows beard styles. He’d be more of a “Short Boxed Beard”)) His beard is pitch black until around his ‘muzzle’ area, or what would be considered comparable to the Llar muzzle area, and by that point it is pure white. The transition between black and white is not sharp, but instead is smooth.
Eyes:: Black and intense, but kind.
Ear colours/markings:: Solid black with bright red tips.
Tail colours/markings:: Same as ears.
Peculiar Physical Traits:: Bright red nails and horn.
Distinguishing Marks:: As a Llar, he is solid black with a pure white muzzle.
Health:: Great except he is a few allergies, none of which are life threatening. They’re just annoying.
Senses:: Above average.
Voice:: A smooth baritone. He hardly ever speaks, and when he does it is softly, as if he’s scared the full force of his voice with blow whoever he’s talking to over. This is particularly frustrating for the elderly Jivvins.
Mannerisms:: Pleasant, hardworking, and overly helpful. He knows he’s an easy target for manipulation, so he tries his best to stay away from those who might have ill intentions. Chews on grass frequently.
Clothes/shoes/accessories:: Like a woodsman. As he works outside a lot, he takes off his shirt (much to female onlookers’ delight) to avoid stinking and dirtying up a good shirt. The style of clothes that immediately came to mind was how Richard Cypher dresses in the Legend of the Seeker series. A few links (sexy sexy man alert): [x] [x] [x]
Eating habits/mannerisms/tastes::Healthy and natural. He has a love for fresh vegetables, salads, stews, and anything he makes with food he’s grown in his garden. Wild berries are some of his favorite treats.

PART II. GENERAL
Occupation/Social Status in Rank:: Carpenter/farmer. He runs his own small garden for himself, but will set out a stand where he sells a small amount of his produce at a lower than market price and/or services for the less fortunate. His skills as a carpenter allow him to afford doing such a thing, as his more ornate commissions are prized among many of those ranked ‘higher’ than most. He however, prefers the simple life and cares not for money other than what he needs to survive.
Views on Rank responsibilites:: He is very accepting and not too judgmental. He understands the dynamics of each rank and why they work best for the village, but befriends people based on their actions and personality. As for his rank’s leader, he has a huge respect for all that Raechel has done for the Afyas.
Education/ Intelligence:: As a young child, he was taught to read, but the only formal education came when he was apprenticed to an older carpenter. He has a good head on him, even if he doesn’t read history or know any magic.
Marital Status:: Single
Where does he/she live?:: On the outskirts of the village in a small, simple house. He has forged a path into the forest so that he may find the wood that he needs to work with. Due to this, he has made friends with several of the patrol and guard by bringing them lunch, water, or fresh snacks on his way into the forest. In return, they make sure to keep an eye out for his safety, and will go after him if he’s been gone too long.
Political Thoughts/ Views of Ranks and Vhaid:: If the community works and each rank believes that their leader is doing a good job, then what’s there to complain about? He’s not much for politics.
Beliefs/ Values/ Strength of Beliefs:: He believes in helping those who are less fortunate than he is, but that teaching a man to fish is much better than just giving away fish to the man. In other words, he’ll help out in anyway that he can, as long as he’s not getting stepped on or used in the process. He doesn’t tolerate mooches as he believes, like most, that all should work to support themselves and the Village.
What is his/her usual disposition?:: Pleasant and happy. He rarely complains or becomes angry.
Optimist/ Pessimist? :: Optimist
Confident/Self-conscious? :: Confident.
How does he/she feel about his/her appearance? :: He feels out of place at times due to his size, but feels that it suits his profession and lifestyle well.
Most important possession:: His health
Talents :: Stamina and physical fitness, gardening, woodworking, detail work, and his ability to manage his time.
What is a normal day like for this Jivvin?:: He wakes up early to tend to his garden, and after harvesting the ripe fruit/veggies, he takes what he needs for himself and sells the rest in a stand outside his house near his workshop. If he needs to gather wood for his commissions, he does so, taking with him a hatchet and a small crossbow just in case (and the snacks/drinks for the patrol, of course). During the day he works on commissions while keeping up with and running his shop. He stops commission work just before dinner and closes his produce stand. After dinner, he takes stacks of wood to some of the more elderly or unabled Jivvins that live nearby him before going into town to listen to music and maybe have a drink. Some days he runs errands in the market, but otherwise he’s pretty self sufficient.
What is a normal rainy day like for this Jivvin?:: On these days, he usually simply tends to his produce stand. However, he will often go into the woods to take a thermos of hot tea to the patrolmen.
Greatest Fear:: Being caught by the White one or a demon while in the forest.
What does he/she want most?:: A simple life and for everyone to help eachother out.
Major Goals::
1. To help others better their lives.
2. To produce top quality products.
3. To one day find a mate.

PART III. RELATIONSHIPS
Significant Other/Relationship:: None, to his mother's blatant disappointment.
Who does he/she live with?:: He lives alone, but close to his adoptive family.
Who does he/she spend the most time with?:: The neighboring patrol, his neighbors, and his regular customers.
Father/Relationship with him/Rank/Current Status:: Geoffrey. Jayden keeps his father in high regards, and respects him greatly. How could he not when the man raised him as his own? He is an Afya and currently lives with his mate, Amelia. He is a small stature Jivvin that works as a blacksmith specializing in more detailed creations.
Mother/Relationship with her/Rank/Current Status:: Amelia. Like his father, Jayden respects and loves his adoptive mother as the only mother he has ever known. She is a tiny thing, and since Jayden is a bit of a momma's boy, they make an amusing pair when together. A source of constant advice, whether warranted or not, Amelia attempts to visit her son when she can, bringing him his favorite baked goods and treats. She is an Afya and lives with her mate, Geoffrey. She herself owns a bakery, many swear that she makes the best muffins in town.

Best Friend/Rank/Current Status:: His mother, sadly.
