History: History: Kelstar was born in a small beasthold. His family taught him in the beastcraft arts and he earned his apprenticeship through hard work and a knack with animals.Kelstar learned to care well for his animals and he grew closer to his family because of it. They would spend time together teaching his younger sister how to ride and breaking in runners, laughing when someone fell off but wasn't injured. Kelstar is an adept rider and can go for long distances runner back. He hates wherries with a passion and his family refuses to raise them as both he and his sister had nearly been killed after stupidly wandering into the wherry pen one day. Wherries are forbidden from the farm now. Kelstar was only truly frightened thrice in his life, once when his runner dumped him in from of frightened herdbeasts,(he was saved by one of his buddies) another time when his little sister became ill with a strong fever. And the Wherry incident. The family took turns placing cooling clothes on her head and Kelstar watched his mother weep through the night. He felt as helpless as a new born runner and could do nothing except attempt to keep his sister cool. When she recovered the entire family celebrated with a feast. Kelstar helped his mother tend a small garden in the back of the house away from the runners and herdbeasts. He enjoyed the hard work and the sunlight as well as his mothers companionship, they would seldom talk but understood each other nonetheless. Kelstar also enjoyed riding with boys on neighboring farms and they learned to herd herdbeasts together. They formed a bond and rode whenever they could. Kelstar did his family proud and they rewarded him by allowing him to choose two runners to breed. The foal of this breeding was to become his personal mount. He deliberated for three long days and finally settled on two of the best runners in his families herd. Kelstar was rewarded with a healthy black foal. Kelstar had just begun to train the beast when he was searched. He was searched at a Gather where he and his family were selling livestock and runners. His family were not happy about his leaving the hold but at his insistence that this was what he wanted to do, they finally let him. He left his little sister Tala with his dreams for new runners and his black foal. The separation almost broke his heart, but Kelstar was delighted to be going to the Weyr as he finally got the chance to learn about dragons. He had always wanted to learn about them. It had been a secret passion of his all his life.He found the great beasts fascinating and had always thought of flight and the respect he would get by becoming a dragonrider. He would miss his family but knew that they would be okay without him.

Description: Kelstar is tall and blond with green eyes. He has medium musculature and a long trailing scar on his left arm which he acquired from a spooked herdbeast and a sharp buckle on a lead rope. He has large delicate hands and feet that he still occasionally trips over. His clumsiness is left over from a late growth spurt. Kelstar has thick eyebrows and long hair that is often tied back in a thong.
Personality: Kelstar is warm and charismatic. He completes tasks with determination and care. He loves to help people and enjoys the company of animals. Kelstar is a good listener and tries to give fair advice when he is asked for help. He enjoys helping people with livestock problems as that is his area of expertise. He likes to make people laugh and can be quite the comedian. He loved his position as a beastcraft apprentice because he got to watch animals under his care grow and develop there individual personalities and then have babies of their own. Kelstar is most at home in the stable and is always eager to learn about new animals. He is compassionate and curious and listens to people well. Kelstar likes to sing. He is not bad but not as good as a harper. He also likes to cheer people up as he finds the work gets done faster and more efficiently that way. He likes to lead and organize people and jumps in on others tasks when help is needed. He likes most of his chores but hates to change glowbaskets for some odd reason. perhaps the work is to boring and he would rather be doing something more exciting, even if it is a different chore.
He only knows the basics about dragons and he would love to learn more. The closest he had ever been to a dragon before his search had been his friends green firelizard, who let Kelstar feed her on occasion. Kelstar can be jealous and gets snarky at times when he feels he hasn't been treated fairly by his friends. When he starts a task he wants to do it his way and may neglect the advice of others and do things the hard way.Kelstar also likes to be the leader most of the time which some people might resent. If an animals is mistreated he may through a fit and then that person loses all his respect.
Other:Kelstar gets along very well with animals of all kinds and can carry a simple tune, although once the music becomes complicated his voice cracks. Kelstar hasnt been at the Weyr very long but is greatly enjoying himself. He loves the atmosphere of the Weyr and the friendly and helpful people who were like a family away from home.
