2023/08/04 Hello loves! While I haven't been writing, I have been working on updating some issues that have been hanging around on the layout! The Character change box is now at the bottom of the page, beside the up/down arrows!

Thistle!

An’tell of bronze Erinath
bronzerider
[Image: ricahrd-armitage-rake-43.jpg?resize=788%2C591]
Richard Armitage
Important Details
Original Name: Antixell
Pronounced: ANNE-tih-zell
Honorific: An’tell
Pronounced: Anne-tell
Nicknames: None any use to his face these days. Some of his family called him Ani.

Dragon Name: Erinath
Dragon Pronounced: AIR-ih-nath
Dragon Colour: Bronze
Wing Assigned: TBA
Wing Rank: Wingrider

Primary Rank: Bronzerider
Secondary Ranks: Journeyman Smith

Place of Birth: Small village outside of Fort Hold
Date of Birth: 10.06.705 AL
Stolen By: B’jin of green Larrikith
Stolen Date: 19.01.731
Impression Age: 28, 01.01.734 AL
Physical Age: 30

Partner: N/A

Appearance
[Image: 6_Richard-Armitage.jpg]
Eyes: An’tell has light blue-gray eyes that darken at the edge of the iris. His eyebrows slope somewhat downward, giving him a serious look.

Hair: His hair is a dark brown that looks black in some lighting. It has a natural wave to it that becomes more pronounced the longer it grows.

Height: 6’2”

General Appearance: An’tell was raised as a smith, and working in the forge built upper body muscle from hammering metal into shape. As such, An’tell is well built but not overly muscular. Another result of working in the forge for years is the many scars decorating his hands and lower arms. Incidents from handling to hot metal, hot metal flying off the piece he was working, mishandling a tool, or accidentally bumping or dropping a work in progress created the patchwork of scars. He’s gained a few more working with dragons, including a particularly nasty one on his calf from a distressed hatchling the first time he Stood.

His face is fairly thin, with a sharp nose and thin mouth. An’tell has fairly distinctive laugh lines that are present even when he isn’t smiling.

Dressing Style: Between his first profession and his current profession, An’tell takes practicality to the extreme in his dress. Seeing him in clothes that aren’t black or brown, maybe the occasional cream, might cause those who know him well to faint in shock.

He is careful to keep his clothes washed, but he understands that when dealing with the forge or dragons, permanent stains and holes will happen, and wearing clothes until they are nearly falling apart does not bother him. He presents himself well, but doesn’t fuss about looking immaculate at all times.

Similar to his outlook on clothes, An’tell generally stays clean shaven but is not overly bothered by stubble if he has to miss a few days.

Personality
[Image: 25(59)-gthumb-gwdata1200-ghdata1200-gfitdatamax.jpg]
General Character Traits: An’tell is known for being pretty intense. With his serious looking resting face and careful nature he comes across as severe to most people. He is rather intense, but he has a much better sense of humor and more compassion than people assume. The person he holds to the highest standard is himself, and he is significantly more lenient and gentler with other people. An’tell does not shy from holding people responsible for their mistakes, but he will not be needlessly cruel about them.

Instilled in him from a young age was a deep sense of responsibility. Responsibility to his family first, then responsibility to his craft, and, most recently, responsibility to his dragon and his Weyr. He worries about when his responsibilities conflict; he still feels a tug of war between his place in his Crafthall and his place with the Dragonriders.

Habits/Mannerisms: After years of working in the forge, An’tell’s actions are deliberate and methodical. He likes knowing where everything is, and is careful to keep his own items organized - sometimes he’ll start organizing other people’s things as well if he’s stressed or trying to keep himself calm.

Opinions:
Threadfall Theory: If it is not going to happen, why are the dragons still around? (He has to believe in it, otherwise being a dragonrider would hurt too much)
Stealing/Kidnapping: He had a life, damnnit, what gave them the right to take him? Now, though, he feels a responsibility to his dragon and the other Dragonriders, even if he still longs to return to smithing.
Weryrleader S'kef: Didn't like him, but was also aggressively not caring about dragonrider politics for most of the time in Katila.
Firelizards: They were mildly annoying and a distraction, but not terrible. An’tell has no desire to have one.
Women's loss of honourifics: Does not care at all.
Return North: He missed Fort like a missing limb, so returning north was like coming home.

Likes:
Smithing: For An’tell, smithcraft was not just a job his family foisted on him. He truly enjoyed the work, and genuinely misses it. He’s considering asking his Weyrleader if he can continue his training at the Smithhall when he isn’t needed elsewhere. Who knows when having a Master Smith might be useful to the Dragonriders?
Jams: Fruit jams and jellies are a rare treat, and An’tell savors any opportunity to eat them.
Like 3:

Dislikes:
Mess: An’tell, as an organized person, does not like messes. His definition of a mess is not necessarily the same as other peoples, in that he considers anything that doesn’t follow an organizational system he understands a mess. He gives an allowance to other Crafters, as he understands they have their own systems.
Inactivity: He likes to always be doing something. Even his idea of relaxation involves being active; perhaps working on a project. Being forced to do nothing is his own personal hell.
Being Ill/Hurt: Tying in to his hate of being inactive is his hatred of being ill or injured and forced to take bed rest.

Strengths:
Reliable: If given a task, he will do it to the best of his ability.
Self Disciplined: An’tell is capable of keeping himself on schedule and does not need constant reminders from others to complete tasks. He knows what he needs to do, how much time he needs to do it, and he will see it to completion.
Strength 3:

Flaws:
Keeps Grudges: Oh boy does An’tell keep grudges. He still remembers the name of a fellow Smith apprentice who borrowed a nail from him and never replaced it when he was 13 years old.
Overcritical: An’tell tends to be overly critical of everyone, but especially himself. He holds himself to much higher standards than anyone else.
Quick Tempered: If something irks him, An’tell will let it be known, and if the person or people responsible aren’t properly contrite about it, he will let them hear his disappointment.

Background Story:
Pre 705 AL: Habrell is a Sr. Journeyman Smith who serves as the blacksmith for a small town outside of Fort Hold. He meets his wife in this town. 
705 AL & Birth: Antixell is born, the first child of Habrell and Tili.
707 AL & 2 Turns: Antixell’s first younger sibling, Haxell, is born.
708 AL & 3 Turns: Talia, the family’s first daughter, is born.
709 AL & 4 Turns: Haxell dies of an infection. Antixell and Talia are also very ill, but pull through. 
711 AL & 6 Turns: The twins Handel and Ibrill are born. Their mother, Tili, dies a few days later from childbirth complications. Antixell and Talia are overwhelmed without their mother. Antixell is put in charge of his younger siblings. Habrell throws himself into gaining his Mastery as a way of dealing with grief.
716 AL & 10 Turns: Habrell remarries, a woman named Mollie. Mollie is sweet and genuinely cares for her husbands children, and the burden of watching out for his siblings practically alone is lifted from Antixell’s shoulders.

Mollie and Habrell’s first daughter, Mabell, is born prematurely and dies after a few days.
718 AL & 12 Turns: Mollie gives birth to another daughter, Amell, who is very healthy as a baby. 

Antixell is sent to the Smithcrafthall to begin his apprenticeship and continue the family craft. 
720 AL & 14 Turns: Due to showing promise as a smith, a Master Smith takes Antixell as his personal apprentice, and he gains the position of Sr. Apprentice. 
724 AL & 18 Turns: Antixell finishes his apprenticeship and attains the title of Jr. Journeyman. 
727 AL & 22 Turns: Having served several years as a Journeyman in the Crafthall, Antixell is sent out to work in an outlying town, much like his father, to gain practical experience without the aid of many masters of the craft surrounding him at all times.
731 AL & 26 Turns: Antixell is Stolen from the outlying town by B’jin and taken to Katila.

A few months later, he Stands for the first time and is injured by a hatchling. This in no way improves his disposition towards dragons or their riders.
732 AL & 27 Turns: He Stands for another two clutches, without Impressing. He avoids being injured during the Hatchings.
733 AL & 28 Turns : Antixell Stands for a fourth clutch, again without Impressing. At this point, he is seriously considering an escape attempt. 
734 AL & 29 Turns: On the first day of the year, Antixell Stands for a fifth time. This time, he Impresses bronze Erinath.

Eight months later, the Landslide decimates Katila. An’tell is trapped in a building alongside several other Weyrlings. With careful digging from the inside, and assistance from their dragons on the outside they manage to escape with over half the Weyrling pairs surviving. Erinath gained some scars from his endeavor. 
735/36 AL & 30/31 Turns: The dragonriders return North to Telgar. An’tell graduates shortly after the move. 

When the dragonriders are divided among the Weyrs, An’tell and Erinath head to Fort Weyr.


Education
Craft: Smithcraft
      Specialty: Metalworking
Craft Rank:  Jr. Journeyman
      Date Apprenticed: 14.09.718 AL 
      Date Tapped: 03.07.724 AL
      Mastership Obtained: N/A

Education Details: An’tell is from a Smithing family, and as the eldest son he was always expected to go into the Craft. He was apprenticed as soon as he was old enough. Smithing was a great joy to An’tell, and he excelled at metalcraft, making nails and other fixings for buildings, carts, and other necessities. 

Dragon
Dragon Name: Erinath
      Name Pronounced: AIR-ih-nath
Dragon Colour: Bronze
Wing Assigned: TBA
      Wing Rank: Wingrider

Hatching Date: 01.01.734 A
Birthing Weyr: Katila
Home Weyr: Fort 
Clutch Name: The Pursuit
      Clutch Mother: Gold Okalinth
      Clutch Father: Bronze Torath

Appearance: 
      Length: 36’5"
      Height: 18’
      Wingspan: 58’
      Scars & Markings: A few scars along his right flank from scraping against splintered wood during the Landslide, as well as many along his forelegs from attempting to dig An’tell out from a collapsed building. 
      Weyrlinghood: Erinath was very pale as a hatchling, and in some lights could almost be mistaken for gold. His head seemed overlarge for his body beyond the usual disproportionate head sizes of hatchlings. 
      Adulthood: Age led to Erinath’s hide darkening, as well as gaining some mottling along his back, neck, and tail. He became more well proportioned, though his wingspan is still large for his size. The increased wingspan makes him ideal for endurance, being able to glide long distances with little flapping of wings. His chest is somewhat barrel shaped, with plenty of space for large lungs that also assist with endurance. 

Mindvoice: Smooth voice, almost always sounds amused. If he doesn’t sound amused, he sounds angry. 

General Character Traits: Erinath is highly energetic, and, similar to his rider, prefers to always be doing something. For a being his size more lethargy is expected, but Erinath defies the expectation.

The bronze is deeply protective of those he considers ‘his,’ which extends to his rider, his rider’s friends, and all members of his Wing. 

Habits/Mannerisms: He has a highly embarrassing habit of letting the tip of his tongue stick out. Erinath is deeply embarrassed by this habit, but rarely notices himself doing it. He thinks it ruins his impressive bronze persona. 

Likes: 
      Swimming: Warm or cold, salt or fresh, Erinath loves being in the water any chance he gets. Trying to convince him to come back out again can be a challenge. 
      Flirting: He may not always be good at flirting, but he does enjoy it. He will flirt with any dragon just for fun, though he is almost never serious in his attentions. 
      Eyeridge Scratches: If you want Erinath to love you forever, scratch his eye ridges. You will be set for life in his eyes. 

Dislikes: 
      Insects: You’d think insects would be too small to bother a bronze. You’d be wrong. Erinath hates the little irritations. 
      Holders: They’re just always so loud and argumentative, as well as tend to avoid helping dragonriders whenever possible. 
      Landslides: He had that bad experience as a young dragon and would rather never repeat it ever. 

Strengths:  
      Amusing: In the dangerous world of dragonriders, being able to find humor in life and share it with others can make life easier for everyone. Erinath is adept at finding and creating humor in order to help others feel better. 
      Considerate: Erinath is the kind of dragon who will always make sure that other humans and dragons are comfortable around him, and is careful to not take up too much space or look too scary. 
      Clever: Erinath is surprisingly good at solving problems for a dragon, and An’tell frequently consults him on how to get things done. 

Flaws: 
      Arrogant: Erinath thinks rather a lot of himself, and this sometimes limits his ability to self-asses and admit when he’s wrong.
      Fussy: He likes things being just so, especially when it comes to his hide, and gets a bit grumpy when things are not as he likes them.
      Always DTF (Down To Fight): Ready to back up those he cares about at a moment’s notice, Erinath is eternally read to get down and protect his important people.

RP Sample
Moving to Fort Weyr brought up complicated feelings An’tell wasn’t sure he was ready to confront. He had been born outside of Fort Hold, and he couldn’t help but think of his family.

You could visit them, you know. his dragon told him. I’d take you there. Anytime you wanted.

“Thank you, Erinath” He said, stroking the dragon’s neck. “Not yet. I want us to get more acquainted with our new home before I start spending time in my old one.” The dragon nodded.

That is fair. He said, nodding.

“Good, well, now that we have that settled, I’m going to continue arranging our new weyr, shall I?” N’tell said, smiling wryly. 

Hmph, very well, I suppose. Erinath grumbled. But you must promise, An’tell, to give me a bath in the lake later today.

“I can accept that deal.”
