Wanna Get to Know Me?
N'var is a calm and determined man. There isn’t a lot that bothers him. However, messing with his kid sister is one of those things. He’s very protective of her, and the people that matter to him. He can also be a bit of a prankster, enjoying coming up with ways to make people squirm. Like most little boys trapped in a man’s body, he can take this too far at times, sometimes to a dangerous or hurtful point, but he tries to be mindful not too. That’s not to say he success at it or that he hasn’t left people angry or with hurt feelings. Its not that he sets out with those sorts of intentions, but N'var is so eager to keep people in good spirits, that he has a hard time discerning when it's too much. He left behind his share of people who despise him at the hold.
He spent so much time as a child in an unhappy and depressed environment that he wants the rest of his life filled with laughter and smiles. When things start to go wrong or get tough, he increases the jokes and pranks, his own way of showing panic. He has a terrible temper that shows when he thinks someone is being wronged or mistreated. Particularly when that person is dear to him. While it hasn't gotten him into serious trouble yet, he's had a few close calls and left behind some lasting enemies. Beyond what he views as injustice to others, only personal attacks against him or his loved ones triggers his temper. He'd rather make a joke and brush stuff away.
Its not surprising that N'var is a people person. He loves to make new acquaintances and meet new people, but values those close to him most. Being surrounded by people is nothing new to him nor does it bother him in the least. He takes it all in stride. He's a confident man, but not overly so. He knows that he has limits and tries to keep them in mind. Growing up with a younger sister who had a shy nature, N'var discovered his talent for being a leader at a young age. Its something he enjoys, but doesn't abuse. Group welfare and happiness is his first priority, which is what he focuses on when it comes time to make tough decisions. This isn't always the best trait, since he has put a person's feelings before anything else, and made decisions based on that rather than what would have been the responsible or correct thing to do.
He has a way of walking over the quieter people he meets. He hates taking no for an answer, especially if its something he thinks he's right about. Being the second-oldest child, he carries that air of being an older brother and likes to think he knows whats best for the people around him.

Are you sure? It's been a long story.
N'var was born in the Weyr, the second child of a family of five. As a child he was well loved and cared for. His parents were Hold-bred who had simply stayed after failing to Impress. He was told from a young age that because he came from such perfect stock that he would stand and Impress his first try. His father seemed to be trying to live vicariously through him.
His father, a man who had spent his whole life in the Weyr believing he would be a dragonrider and had always failed to impress, could no longer stand what he considered the injustice of being robbed of his birthright. A dragon. He started to lash out at his family verbally, taking his frustration out on them. When N'var was 13 his family packed up and left the Weyr. This sparked a huge fight between his father and an uncle on his mother’s side, who had grown very fond of N'var's younger sister and demanded that they leave her in his care. Their mother was mentally, emotionally and physically exhausted from dealing with her husband and his ‘fits’ and could not bear to stay and fight any longer agreed to leaving her behind.
This destroyed N'var as he was particularly fond of his younger sister. He did his best to keep in touch with his Uncle, keeping tabs on her. Of course, it didn’t take him long at all to find that Hold life was boring. So it was with more than a little excitement that he noticed the search riders out on their most recent visit. Determined that he wouldn’t get left behind at the Hold, he did what he could to catch their eye, and prayed that he was candidate material.

Meet Novath!
Colour: Blue
Inspired by: Supernova
Size: Average
Build: Average
Why Navarre?: Novath? Calm. Down. If there was ever a dragon who needed a rider as generally calm as Navarre to reign in their temper, it's this explosive blue. Additionally, while Navarre is generally calm, he does have his own temper when the right buttons are pushed and so he can understand Novath rather than telling him to cool off without knowing where he's coming from. Where Navarre might try to joke around and avoid an unhappy situation on the other hand Novath's anger will turn to the thing that is upsetting his rider, and that intense passionate anger will be turned into a drive to make it stop upsetting him. Finally, when Novath isn't in a foul mood, he's just as friendly as Navarre and won't be happy to join his rider in socializing and jest.

What Makes Novath Tick?
Novath is temperamental. Very temperamental. Most of the time he's perfectly amiable, he's got a quick wit and he's fun to be around when he's in a good mood... When he'd in a good mood. When he's in a bad mood the whole of Pern knows about it. It's sort of hard to know what's going to spark him off; it could be one single frustrating event that then causes him to snarl and snap at everyone and everything until he calms down, or it could be a series of small niggles that build up and up until he explodes at a perfectly innocent party.
He doesn't like his temper, but he's rather too proud to admit that to anyone and will insist whoever it was thoroughly deserved whatever it was he said or did. It is fairly obvious that he's slightly ashamed of his outbursts, however, as he's listless for a period after one. If left to his own devices he'll gradually slide back into a good mood and get back to chatting with his friends (or any dragon that addresses him for that matter), but if somebody points out that he's sulking another explosion of temper is on the cards. One dragon that's especially good at putting him in a bad mood is Nebulath: she treats him like a rather dense little brother, which understandably drives him up the wall. Just like siblings, however, another brilliant way to set him off is to threat or insult the pushy green.
This temper of his, however, isn't entirely bad. If he decides he's angry with a person he'll attack them with every ounce of his sharp tongue and bright mind. If he decides he's angry at a problem he'll throw himself against it with just as much vigour and passion; whatever it is that's wrong he'll fix it or he'll die trying!

Who Says We Don't Have Goals
Wingrider -> Watch Dragon -> Warden Dragon
____________________Watch Dragon____________________
Summary____________________________________________________________________________
The watch dragon is a sentinel lookout for the Weyrs during a pass. They are often the first to spot and respond to the threat of Thread falling in the skies surrounding the Weyr as well as the territory that is beholden to the watch dragon’s Weyr. Often stationed throughout a territory, these individuals are hardy, though, and reliable. This rank is just above Wingrider, the default rank for all dragon riders.

• 5 completed roleplays, of which the character in question has a least 15 posts.
• Participate in at least Three (3) Threadfall Events until the end

Summary____________________________________________________________________________
Warden dragons are the military portion of the Weyrs, adept at fighting Thread and people alike. A relatively new installation, these individuals train in the art of combat and self defense. With the rise in violence and paranoia on Pern, many Weyrs have opted to train specific individuals for the purpose of protecting the Weyrs, Caravans, and Holders. The dragons themselves tend to be hot tempered and while they cannot hurt humans, they can indeed chase away any non-human creatures. This is a special rank and is above the Search, Watch, and Courier Ranks.
Requirements____________________________________________________________________________

Hatchings and Impressions
As the happy little green drew close to the clouded egg she was in for another surprise. The explosive egg almost literally lived up to its namesake; shards of shell flew everywhere and once again the orbiting green scurried away with a shocked squeal. This was probably a wise move on her part, for the blue who rose from the wreckage of the egg screeched and glared around at the world with savage orange eyes. Fixing his gaze on the candidates he started to lope forward, but unsteady as any hatchling as he was he accidentally knocked against the clouded egg, which then cracked open to reveal a green. She was no more pleased than the blue, and quickly scrambled upright snarling at her sibling.
The previously bright hatching took on a very different tone as the two dragonets faced off against one another, snarling and hissing. After a few moments the clouded green struck out at the other dragonet with surprising speed, he only just managed to scramble back out of range. It was his turn to launch an attack then, and then the green again, and him and all the time they lunged at one another they moved closer and closer to the female candidates...
As the crowd of girls parted the dragon continued to fight, leaping at one another and swiping and snapping their jaws but never actually managing to land a blow on one another. One particularly clumsy leap out of the way by the clouded green led to her nearly landing on Nawa, and as she scrambled upright to launch another assault of her own a stray swipe of her right hind claws opened two nasty cuts on the girl's calf. Although the wounds would bleed quite heavily she was in no danger of death, and could safely remain on the sands if she or somebody else tore some strips off their robe to make bandages.
As the clouded green sprung the explosive blue dodged rather deftly hissing furiously and snapping his jaws at his sister. The clouded green spun aside and then jumped at the blue again but this time when he dodged instead of landing with all four feet on the sand, the very tips of her left foreclaws sliced down Peradan's left thigh and knocking the candidate down. As Peradan fell the clouded green gave a very different cry, her eyes turning grey and streaking with yellow. As the explosive blue charged again the clouded green did not run. Giving a bellow that would not have shamed a full grown dragon she stood her ground, turned to face him and flared her wings.
Navarre watched in barely restrained worry as the hatchlings fought their way toward the females. He scanned the faces of the girls as they moved to get out of the way, trying to keep his sister in sight. He missed the green mauling Nawa by mistake. As he turned to see what had happened, he witnessed with a sense of sick horror as the green sliced through Peradan's thigh while trying to catch her brother. His heart fell even further as the little green let out a bellow to rival a full grown green's. Time seemed to freeze, and the young man could feel his heart pounding in his throat as they seemed close to tearing each other to threads, mere moments after the green had impressed too.
Just as it looked as though the explosive blue would tear his sister apart, however, a roar evener more ear-splitting than Nebulath's echoed across the sands and the blue sprang back as though he had been burned. Brakiath, it seemed, had finally had enough. Thouroughly cowed the explosive blue back away from the scattered female candidates keening quietly, his eyes grey with sorrow. Disaster, it seemed, had been averted.
Time returned to normal as a mind-destroying roar from Brakiath broke the tension. Navarre reached up to cover his ears as the sound reverberated in his head for a few moments. The blue looked downtrodden and thoroughly beaten as he slunk away, finally headed toward the males. Since things had settled down, Navarre took the chance to look for Kytara once more, flashing her a warm and supportive smile. Perhaps that would be the peak of this hatching, and the rest of it would go a bit more smooth. Still, he felt a bit bad for the blue, after all, it had been the green who had started the fight.
Still obviously deflated, the explosive blue slunk away from the girls and in amongst the boys. Of his earlier violence there was no sign at all, in fact now he seemed the most placid dragon hatched so far. Every so often he came to a halt and lifted his head, almost as if he was sniffing the air to find his rider's scent. It seemed that he was getting warmer, for every time he stopped his eyes became a little less grey and a little more blue-green.
While the explosive blue made progress, the orbiting green patted gently at the tailing trail egg with one forepaw, squeaking and chirping encouragement at it: she wanted to meet her next sibling now! As if on cue, the small egg burst open causing the poor orbiting green to leap back yet again. It only took her a moment to recover this time however, as the newly emerged green trilled at her in a friendly fashion and stepped forward to say hello.
As the two greens greeted one another, the explosive blue seemed to be nearing his goal. Eyes now quite a bright shade of teal he rose up briefly on his hind legs to see in amongst the male candidates towards the middle of the pack. An elated cry announced his success, and he pushed carefully through the boys until he reached Navarre.
"Oh Navarre Mine! I found you at last! Your Novath is ready to go now, we should go quickly before Nebulath eats all the best meat!"
He looked around in confusion, his eyes settling on the blue in front of him. Me? Of course you. Now hurry. I will be very testy if Nebulath eats all of the meat. He stood there in dumbstruck silence until Novath seemed to sigh and walked around behind the young man, nudging him forward. Suddenly he laughed as he dropped a hand onto Novath's head. "Alright Novath. I'm going."

-Post Theta Clutch Hatching at Trine-
SHE DID IT! Kytara...no...it's Ky't now. Ky't impressed the sweetest green today. I think her name is Hermenth, or something like that. She was so much fun to watch at the hatching too. I thought she might take a nap right there on the sands instead of impressing. It took another green dragging her away from her spot to get her to finally find Ky't. I was so happy I made a real sharding fool of myself right there in the stands. I couldn't help it though. She's been real down ever since me and Novath's impression. Lucky Novath's been real good to her. I'm glad. I don't know how I would have handled it if they didn't get along.
