Location: Western
Physical Description: Gavryl is a endomorph – high metabolism, growth spurts all throughout his teens, and long limbs have left him looking, well long and thin. He's not very strong, physically, and never has been. Dark black-brown hair is roughly trimmed into something halfway decent but he's not very good at getting the back sides – he compensates for this with pommade he carefully applies each morning to give his hair a sort of chunky, edgy appearance that ends up looking like he put way too much effort into it. His eyes are green-hazel and his face in long with high cheekbones, constantly in serious or thoughtful expressions. Wears dark colours with little flair but as fine craftsmanship as he can afford – not because he prefers luxury but because well made things last longer.
Personality:
Gavryl is a creature of logic and self interest. He prefers to stick to himself and never really learned how best to express his emotions, resulting in him bottling up said emotions on a regular basis. He's not terribly comfortable, or well spoken, when he does try to voice his emotional state to anyone and as a result prefer to stay quiet... breaking down in private where prying eyes won't see and judging ears won't hear.
That's not to say he's without opinions – he very much has them. They are, however, almost always drawn from a place of logic rather than intuition or emotion. He is hyper analytical and prefers efficiency to 'fun' or 'feel like it' reasoning. The most efficient route for deliveries, the best schedule for chores, whatever it is he speaks of ways to improve the process. This is a double edged sword because it makes it seem as if he's a teacher's pet, over critical, or completely socially awkward and while those might be true... you won't find a better ally if he believe your plan of sound logic.
Gavryl is the sort to save for those expensive well made leather shoes, or that heavy fine coat not because he is a creature of luxury but because your marks are best spent on those items that will last the longest. There's absolutely no sense in investing in cheap, shoddy work when you'll replace it twice as quickly as you would a finer item.
This young man is also not terribly physical... he always seems to keep some space between him and his fellows. It's hard to discern exactly why and most just write this off as a personality quirk. In truth he just... he's not sure what to do, where to put his hands... is he standing to close? Too far? Social cues are often lost on him and he's rather terrified of screwing up somehow. When he does make the occasional foray into affection, it usually manifests as a hand on the shoulder.
His cold matter-of-fact tones, logical thinking, and blunt mannerisms don't often win friends and he carries an air as if this doesn't matter at all. It does matter, though, but his social anxiety makes it difficult to lower that barrier and take those risky first steps to make connections.

History:
Gavryl was born and raised at Western, among the ideals of merit ruling, of a people come together. He was enamored with this idea as a child and determined that he would one day become a dragonrider like all those glorious men and women he saw every day. It was an average childhood, raised with the rest of the Weyrbrats in the creche, put to work when he was old enough... but even as a child, his logical tendencies put off the other children. They saw him as a spoil sport, a mood killer, and spurned him. He took this hard and it formed in him a desire to be accepted and an awkwardness of never knowing how to attain that acceptance.
When thread began to fall, his child's dream grew that much more real and that much more logical. The dragonriders were the ones to burn the Thread from the sky, they would protect Pern from its deadly touch and the best way to ensure that was done effectively was to be among them – he had absolute confidence in his ability to provide well-planned, well-targeted duties on behalf of Pern.
So he used his right as a Weyrbrat to begin standing at the Hatchings. He's not sure what to expect as the wisdom around dragons seems so based in intuition... there's no simple predictive pattern to the events. That makes him nervous but stand he will.
