Name : Dalrian Hrethenarr D'rian after impression
Pronunciation: Dahl-ree-ahn
age: 21 turns
birth season : Winter
Gender : Male
Sexuality : Bismexual
Appearance: (picture above)
Dalrian stands tall at 6'4'' tall. His body is lean and well muscled from 11 years of hard work as a carpenter. Dal's skin is pale and smooth as silk except for a few dark scars criscrossing his back and shoulders. His hands are large and rough, also from his long years as a carpenter, but still long and slender.
Dal has a cupidbow mouth and piercing blue green eyes that don't miss very much. His hair is a golden light brown color. It is to his shoulder at it's longest point and feathers out at different angles and lengths to give it a more edgy stylish look.
Personality:
Dal is a hard worker. He expects it, not only of himself, but of others as well. Especially Weyr folk. He believes the people of the weyr from the Weyrwoman to the lowliest candidate should be held to a higher standard.
Because of his ideals of what the riders and handlers should be, he tends to get annoyed rather easily. He's nice enough sometimes, but he gets edgy around crowds, and the stress of groups larger than three, coupled with his easy annoyance tends to.... Well how should I put this? It tends to trigger his inner smartass.
He'd really rather just be left alone. People on the whole are a nuisance and a bother to him. A Boyfriend or girlfriend may be able to improve his mood somewhat, if they can pin him down long enough to achieve that particular title.
At least... That's what he USED to be like.
Now D'rian is a funloving hellatious flirt! He tried his hand at a relationship with the golden Weyrling Iirla who ravaged his trust and made him withdraw into his 'not exclusive' shell again. Now he puts on a happy front to support his Weyr. Only letting a select few into his real emotions.
As a bronze rider he feels it's his duty to take care of ev

History:
Dal was born in another weyr as the son of a Blue rider. His father D'vyr was a fine man who inspired dal all his life. Dal's childhood dream was to become a rider. At ten years old, Dal's life crashed around him. His father along with his dragon Selkieth were lost during a flight into the wilds on the other side of the mountains that were home to their Weyr. It was presumed that the rider had abandoned them. Dal never believed it like his mother did. His father must have died somehow causing his dragon to between in grief with him. (In actuality wild animals attacked and there were too many to fend off , leading to the death of the rider and selkieth betweened them into oblivion.)
Dal was never the same after the death of his father. His mother joined a caravan as a weaver to support them and met a man traveling. A carpenter named Reckshan. After just a few short months, his mother was married and Reckshan took over the spot as his 'father'.
He HATED the man. The carpenter loved his mother dearly and tried to mend the rift between himself and his new son, but to no avail. To Dal, it seemed like he was trying to take his father's place. The thought that a carpenter thought himself equal to a Rider burned inside him as if he'd been struck by thread. After a month or so dealing with Dal's hatred, his new father decided to force him to recognize what hard work being a carpenter was.
Rackshan took him on as an apprentice, and was a harsh master. He beat the boy until he accomplished the work correctly, leaving scars that marred his back, fostering dal's hatred along with constant insults against his father's apparent abandonment. Eventually when he was old enough and accomplished enough in his craft, he left the caravan and his abusive father behind and joined up with another in another hold.
Where he earned his living crafting beautiful wooden figures , traveling with them for 6 years until he reached Sollace Hold and decided it was time to put down roots for a while. He remained in sollace where he had a shop.
One day while carving a likeness of his father astride his dragon selkieth, he was discovered by ara and avirith. They took him to trelis even though he was soon to pass out of eligibility and during his first standing, he impressed bronze Kelath.
He's slowly worked himself into having relationships and friendships with his fellow weyrlings. His uptight ness eased as he found cameraderie with his friends, and he has become more responsible, becoming-thanks to his dragon, a sort of protector over his wing brothers and sisters.
He developed love for Iirla of Gold Izanycorth, but it was to be a doomed and one sided love. He lost her to V'lkan, rider of Garnet thormyth, in a fairly ugly breakup after she kissed the garnet rider when she was supposed to be with him. As such he has a violent distaste of the lordling. His dragon, however, still harbors a softspot for the young gold, and the farther apart he and Iirla grow, the closer he grows to V'lkan's classmate Ellitra of Amethyst Nevinth.

Kelath is self appointed protector of his wing. He expects a lot out of His and himself, but is nurturing and solid, allowing his to find his strengths in his own time. For the most part he's a complete gentleman, but when something harms His's emotional progress, he becomes more violent and volatile.
He has a definite soft spot for the females of his wing, and a developing fondness for the small amethyst Nevinth which is helped along by His's growing adoration for Nevinth's Ellitra. His love for his queen is second to none, but she tests his patience and his resolve by associating with the garnet Thormyth who's own rider hurt his so.
Pet:
Bronze Firelizzard
Name Shigure
(Shee-Goo-ray)
Shigure is a lazy little guy. It quite suprised Dal in the beginning, but at least he wasnt as spazzy as a green. The little bronze only gets lively in public, most of the time sunning himself unless around anyone other than Dal or he sees a female he wants to impress. Around any other Fire Lizzards he tends to puff himself up like a respectable bronze should. He grumbles and is argumentative all the time with Dal, which at first annoyed Dal and after a while, worked out for Dal's quiet lifestyle.
