Name: Beligian
Age: 16
Sex: Male
Sexual Orientation: Unknown
Craft: Healer - Specialized in massaged therapy
Rank: Apprentice
Location: Western Weyr

Physical Description: A wisp of a boy. He's 5'3'' and weighs all of 100 lbs. He's skinny, has a mess of red hair on his head that has very rough texture. His eyes are a grey/blue and surrounded by a smattering of dark freckles everywhere on his face. His nose is long, slender, and very pointed. His lips are as thin as everything else on him. He's trying to grow some kind of facial hair so he has patchy, red stubble on his cheeks and chin.

Personality: A generally happy guy who wants to make people feel better. He's sort of like a puppy and a kitten combined. Definitely a touchy feely sort of guy not afraid to talk about what he's feeling at any given moment, but also there when someone needs a shoulder to lean on. Beligian can be a very good listener. Helping people sort through their own feelings, offering advice when he can, he really enjoys it. Mainly because it puts a smile on other people's faces. He can be a bit more on the overbearing side if he thinks his friends aren't doing the right thing. It's not black and white, and he knows it, but he likes to think his sense of right and wrong is really strong. Despite all this, Beligian is very, very easily startled. Sneaking up on him will cause him to jump and screech every time. He's demanding in the sense that if he's around, he wants to be included. Not necessarily the center of attention, but he feels the need to be in on it. Even if it's just an inside joke he'd want an explanation and can get fairly pouty if denied.

Positive Trait List Good listener, always happy, maternal
Negative Trait List Overly touchy, sort of demanding, easily startled

History: Beligian grew up as an only child to a single mother and an uncle who doesn’t live with them. His uncle, Befax, is his mother’s brother, so he doesn’t even have much of his father’s family with him. His father came from a small hold to the south, and his mother from Western. He knows his parents met when his father came to Western for some kind of market. Or at least that’s what his mother had always said: “G’vlin always liked Western better. Better selection of supplies. And of course I was here.” She’d always get a far off look in her eyes after that, and then looked crippled with sadness. Beligian never pressed further than that; it hurt to see his mother like this.

His mother, Judif comes from the Courtesan Hall, specializing in a type of massage that Beligian is much too young for. Still, when uncle Befax comes over, his mother taught him a little about how to work the knots out of the Kitchen Worker’s back. Befax was always way too tense for his own good, Beligian would come to find out. He realized early on that he had nimble fingers like his mother and wouldn’t mind being in sort of the same job. Instead of the Courtesan Hall, he was sent to the Healer Hall to make sure he can help people with injuries.

Beligian’s childhood was typical of a Weyr brat. Now he does his chores, works toward being a full massage therapist, and he really does want to be a Rider. He has it in his head if he can do the two things together, then he’d be able to finally feel closer to his dad, who he’s never even seen.
Other: No?

Approved!

Just one thing to note -- did he go to the Healer Hall specifically to train and then return to stand as a Candidate? Or did he just get trained under some local Healers at Western Weyr so he could study a little on the side, and still be eligible for his right-to-stand as a weyrbred Candidate?

Either way is fine, it's just good to make that clear. If he grew up at the Weyr, then he'd probably want to stay under local tutelage if he wanted to be a Candidate at 14.

If he didn't grow up at the Weyr, than sending him to the Healer Hall probably would make sense, and from there, he could have been Searched and brought back to Western Weyr.
