Welcome to Gaia! ::

Dea's making me worrrrk.
Name: T'ye, born Terliyel
Age: Twenty Eight Turns
Sex: Male
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Weyr: High Reaches
Rider Rank: Greenrider
Previous Rank/Craft: Apprentice weaver
Physical Description: T'ye has large brown eyes in a round face. He has average features with a slightly upward-pointed nose. His dark brown hair falls onto his forehead--when it reaches his eyes, he trims it. Either himself, or with the help of his weyr mate, Ash. It is not very neat, even on his best days. He has a slow smile. He is tall and thin, though his arms look altogether too long for his body.

He wears neutral colors on any given day. Grays and blues in particular.
Personality: T'ye was born to be a firelizard. With the amount of gossip he produces seemingly out of nothing, and the great amount of noise he emits on a daily basis; the comparison is accurate. Despite his tendency towards gossip and to chatter needlessly, Tetzel is an intelligent man. He will go out of his way to figure something out--anything out, if he feels it's for Weyr ears.

T'ye shows little fear for what others could do to him. He is bold and willing to take risks (especially verbal risks) to ensure what he feels should be Weyr knowledge becomes so. This makes him reckless in the sense that he does not think about what could happen if he upset someone, If he spreads the wrong information. He may follow others in order to hear what they know--or better, what they don't know. T'ye has found that observing conversations reveals much. Listening to what others say is only part of what he does. He likes to say he listens to what isn't said more.

T'ye, and perhaps this goes without saying, is a curious boy. If there's something to learn about, something to know about, T'ye is on it. When not participating in activities, when not doing chores, he may be found reading if not questioning another candidate. T'ye does not like feeling like he lacks any sort of knowledge; and of course, the more he knows, the more he realizes how much he doesn't know. He may feel the need to pester in order to gleen the information he desires.

When it comes to authority, T'ye does what he is told--but not without some other motive. He may wish to snoop! If this man is quick to agree to do something, beware! T'ye is often searching for answers when he has free time. This greenrider's on the job. He'll do it well, too--but don't expect him to continue if there's something going on. He may look for a reason to leave--someone screaming? He's going to go investigate.

When not trying to learn something new, T'ye is most often spending time with hi Weyrmate. He gets caught up in the moment, and continuely falls in love with her, he claims to every day. He is not especially shy about his feelings towards her, either. He may tell her his affections privately, but it's more like likely he'll voice them loudly.

T'ye always sort of believed Thread would return. His father had, too, and shared stories that he'd heard as a child. T'ye wasn't sure it wasn't all a bunch of nonsense--Thread was gone! Some part of him, though, had hung onto every word he heard about it.

Thread actually returning, was another story. He panicked. He was terrified. For the safety of his weyrmate, for his child, for his parents. People he'd grown up with in thecreche lost their lives trying to fight. They'd been trained, but unprepared.

Being born to a green and blue rider pair, and then Impressing a green; T'ye might be in the minority's here at High Reaches. He knows Amarisath is just as good (or better!) as any other dragon. This young man believes that a dragon is a dragon. Why should the hierarchy be based on the size of one's partner? He isn't bitter about the way he's viewed, he isn't unhappy with his bond, he loves his Amarisath wholly and unbiasedly. He wishes everyone could see his dragon the way he does.

History: T'ye was born to a green and blue rider pair at Highreaches, and was stuck in the crèche as soon as he was old enough. His parents didn't cut ties with him, though, and provided him with gifts every Turnover and birthing day. They wanted him to be apprenticed before Impressing (and they were sure he would) so when he showed interest in weavercraft, they had him apprenticed.

He never left the Weyr, his master being local. So when he old enough to become a candidate, he did. He finally impressed at twenty one. He had started to think he might never; that he'd go back to his craft and become a journeyman. Instead, soon after the hatching, he met Ash. Oh, he was smitten with her from the start. He had to be careful, though. He'd heard relationships could have negative effects on dragonets, so he didn't initiate one. He admired from afar.

It wasn't long before Amarisath was full grown, though, and he told Ash of his feelings. He asked her to be his Weyrmate after they'd courted a few months.

Thread returned only recently, and while T'ye had heard stories from dragonriders and his own father, he believed, and yet didn't. He believed that Thread might return, but certainly not in his own lifetime! It'd been gone for a thousand turns! It'd probably be gone for a thousand more. Thus, he was unprepared when it came. People he'd grown up with lost their lives as they tried to fight it. He lost childhood friends. He was fortunate to have Ashlyn by his side. She is his strength in all of this. They have a small child, and T'ye continually worries after him.
Other: Anything else you want to add?

DRAGON
Name: Amarisath
Age: 7 turns
Color: Green
Size: '18
Physical Description: Using starter pack green<3
Personality: This green, at first glance, is one of the sweetest dragons you could ever meet. She exudes a warm friendliness toward almost everyone that she meets. This green always seems to be inserting herself into the middle of a crowd - not for the attention, but because she wants to be where all the excitement is. Even human crowds are exciting to her, if there is music involved. Amarisath loves music, and will (somewhat childishly) demand that her rider play music or sing for her as often as possible. Having a rider who plays guitar, even as a hobby, will thrill her to no end. She will try to be friends with, or at least friendly towards, all othdr dragons. Her affections are flighty, however, and her rider will be the only one to always have her utmost respect and love.

Gossip, however, is not likely to impress her. She will regularly chide T'ye for participating in it. Amarisath is a very polite dragon, see, and she can't stand for anyone to be mistreated - which includes speaking poorly of others behind their back. Though she isn't usually pushy, she will not tolerate a lack of manners. Those who are unkind to others will not get much of her time or attention, unless it's unavoidable. She becomes downright dismissive with those who ignore her chiding (which is very motherly in its own way) and will resort to simply ignoring someone when they refuse to see the error of their ways.

For all her sweetness, Amarisath is really quite opinionated. She knows what she thinks is right and everyone else should agree with her. Why on earth would she be wrong? She is quite unwavering in her opinion, and her affections are not easily swayed.

Close to approval. His history is pretty scarce though, especially for almost 30 turns of life. If you can't flesh anything more out of it, do you think you could at least add something about Threadfall? Threadfall was a huge event -- High Reaches Weyr was right in its return. Did he believe what they preached before its return? Did he scoff? Now he's fighting thread -- and his parents as well. Has he been wounded at all? Has he lost any friends or family? Has it affected him or his relationship at all?

Furthermore does he have any say about High Reaches heirarchy? While they're not mean or abusive to their green/blue riders (may some individuals are but it's not entirely conded) it does mean he's probably not going to rise in rank any more than a winrider. Does that bother him or is he fine with his place in High Reaches?

I think if you go into a little detail there it might round out his history a bi and then he's good to go. gaia_star I don't need novels, but I do like a little bit of history for older characters.
