Gender: Male
Age: 15
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Rank: Senior Weyrling
Appearance: He has hit a growth spurt, and made it up to 5' tall. However, since he's always been a little skinny he now has a rather unfortunate emaciated look about him. He still prefers the rather childish outfit of short pants and a loose tunic, and this choice does not flatter his newly grown physique. His face, however, has managed to cling on to some of its childish roundness, while at the same time hinting at the facial structure he will have as an adult. A few freckles cling on, but most of them have disappeared. A'dar's eyes are slightly larger than normal, and a shade of icy blue that's almost white. They're very expressive, but often give him a tragic or surprised look when he is, in fact, perfectly cheerful. His hair is a warm shade of brown, silky and straight: usually parted off to one side.
Personality: Inquisitive and bright, A'dar's problem is that he doesn't put his mental abilities to work on useful things. He's always shirking his chores to go off with Droteth or daydreaming during lessons. He's not a very fast runner, and he's not very strong, but what he lacks in those areas he makes up for with enthusiasm and energy. Now and then he will get into trouble, but not out of malice - merely out of misplaced curiosity and a lack of common sense. It is difficult to frighten or intimidate him, but he is not aggressive: if A'dar is the subject of bullying behavior he reacts with innocent confusion and kindness at first, but responds eventually with equal animosity. Being kind and being a pushover are two very different things. Droteth is a bad influence of sorts, and though A'dar often knows when to quit sometimes the pair crosses the line.
History: A'dar was once Andarus. Born in the Southern Weyr, he came north several months before the plague began - his foster mother has family in Telgar Hold, and wanted to be close to them. Andarus' biological mother is a greenrider distantly related to Indira, the once Senior Weyrwoman of Southern. However, because Andarus considers his foster mother to be his only parent he has never been particularly close to the goldrider. His childhood was mostly unremarkable; he was talented, but not outgoing enough to attract much bullying. Andarus enjoyed sailing, and had become quite profficient at it before moving north. That is one of the few complaints he has about Telgar: no nearby oceans. Moving to Telgar before the merger with Southern gave him an advantage when it came to making friends: no rift occured yet, so he was not automatically shunned. It also meant that he was allowed to stand when Amenth's first clutch hatched. To his delight, Andarus impressed Droteth. Since then he has been doing well in his training, and during his free time attempts to repair the break between his old friends in Southern and his new ones in Telgar.
Pet(s): none
Dragon: Droteth
Age: 6 months
Color: Bronze
Appearance: Droteth's color is a true bronze, blending smoothly into lighter and darker shades. He has heavy shoulder muscles, but overall retains a lithe, winsome look. Not as large as some of the other bronzes, Droteth nevertheless is very maneuverable in the air.
Personality: Droteth, despite his handsome extermior, is actually a dragon with a quick temper and hot head. His hot head often clouds his judgement, and his desire for dominance leads to some quarrels with other dragons: if his wishes aren't followed he can become nasty. He is respectfully of weyr heirarchy, but aspires for better standing almost constantly. His belief in his own abilities as well as his temper often lead to recklessness, and A'dar often has to keep a firm hand on him.
Other: Droteth is from Amenth's first clutch
