Name:Ketran(K'ran if he impresses)
Age:14
Gender:male
Position:Candidate
Dragon Color Prefrence:White,Bronze,Brown are my top three,but a Green or Blue wouldn't be bad either.
Dragon's Name Prefrence:It doesn't really matter...something unique though.
History:He was born in small sea-hold,and grew up happily with his 2 brothers and 1 sister. His parents were a fishercrafter and a Holder,and all of his siblings were aspiring to become dragonriders,along with Ketran. However,his siblings were model citizens,so to speak,ot in the least bit bothersome like Ketran. Eventually,his parents grew frustrated and sent him to a Hold near Silver Cove Weyr. There he was Searched to stand at the next clutch.
Appearance:Ketran has a rather boyish appearance,even for 15. In fact,he could probably pass for 13 if he had to. It has nothing to do with height,he's tall at almost 6 feet. But his face looks quite young,especially his large olive green eyes. Also,his sandy blonde hair is often messy;looking good isn't exactly one of his fine points. Ketran has a thin,rather gawky build,having inherited much of his mother's delicated appearance. Which isn't exactly the best,being that he's a boy and all.
Personality:Friendly and outgoing,Ketran is always willing to make new friends. He enjoys meeting new people and can get along well with prettymuch anyone. However,he absolutely hates mean people,and will often hold a grudge against anyone who is a bully. Ketran is always helping someone out,showing them how to do something new or helping them improve. He believes that anyone can acheove their dreams and makes this known,encouraging anyone who wants to acheive.
However,some people may think that Ketran is just a bit too friendly. He can be a bit overeager sometimes,and doesn't always seem to understand that not everyone can be his friend or enjoys all of his friendly attempts.
Not only is Ketran a "people person",he's also an animal lover. He likes working with animals quite a bit,and seems to have some talent with them. Ketran especially loves the dragonic creatures,dragons and firelizards and even whers. His biggest dream is to become a dragonrider,and looks up to the 'riders almost too much. He gets very excited around any dragon or rider,and usually starts to talk a lot in the presence of one(It's one of his nervous habits).
Roleplay sample:It was,to every nature of the word,becoming quite a boring day for Ketran. He had talked to everyone there was to talk to,suceedining unkownly to annoy several of them,and he had(for once) completed all of his chores. As for lessons and games with the other people his age,nothing really seemed very interesting to him right now. And so he begrudgingly trudged outsite to the courtyard,hopin he would find something to occupy himself. As had been expected,there was nothing,and the boy slumped down onto a nearby bench.
Ketran eventually dound himself falling asleep,dreaming of being a dragonrider and even impressing. In this dream he was the most sucessful dragonrider on Pern...a Weyrleader the likes of F'lar! Of course,he was always accompanied by his faithful dragon,who was a Bronze(what else!?) It was really a very good dream for him,and he was disappointed when his Brown flitt,Mosaic,woke him with an urgent chirp. Grumbling to himself,Ketran shook hismelf awake and looked across the courtyard. He hardly dared to believe what he saw! It was a dragon,a real dragon,coming to _his_ Hold! Before the dragon even touched ground,Ketran had already woven a tangled web of what ifs.
<i>What if they're on Search? What if I get Searched? What if I <b>don't</b> get Searched?</i>
Ketran could barely contain himself as the dragon(which was a Blue) landed in the courtyard and a rider dismounted. The rider said something to his dragon and then entered the Hold,probably going to speak to the Lord Holder. Soon curious Holders had gathered around,looking at the dragon. Ketran got as close as he dared. It was a magnificent Blue, and Ketran felt nearly mesmerized. Suddenly,the dragon turned to look at him(him!),and a voice behing him said,"You there,boy,and what's your name?"
Ketran turned around,and was surprised he didn't faint from excitement. A dragon ahd glanced at him,and now its rider was speaking to him.
"I...I'm Ketran,sir.",he managed,trying to stay calm. What if he was in trouble. But that was hardly the case. "How would you like to Stand for a clutch at Silver Cove Weyr? Berinth says you'd be a good Candidate..." He had been Searched! He was going to the Weyr! This was,surely,one of the happiest moments of Ketran's life! #nosmileys
