Appearance
Hair: Medium brown and curly. J'zaq doesn't usually let it get too shaggy and trims it often. Facial varies based on his mood and the month.
Height: 6'2"
General Appearance: He’s a little obsessive about his fitness and it definitely shows. By which I mean abs and also arms. He knows he's good looking, and works to ensure he stays that way at all times.
J'zaq has picked up a number of scars over the years, though most of them aren't super noticeable. The one exception is his left hand, where he is missing his left ring finger and down to the first knuckle on his left pinkie finger. His vanity makes him very careful about injuries, making sure they heal properly and don't leave him with ugly marks (to the extent he can prevent it, anyway). He thinks when they heal neater scars make him look distinguished and experienced, whereas if they heal jagged, etc, they make it look like he can't take care of himself.
Dressing Style: Generally clean and well put together. His style is kind of plain and boring, but the clothes themselves are nice. J'zaq likes to look good, but he's not overly invested in fashion. He has something against sleeves, and very few of his shirts have them. Only a few formal things for having to deal with Holders and the like.
Personality
He's deeply motivated when it comes to things he cares about, and dismissive of most everything else. J'zaq takes responsibilities very seriously, but he has very strong opinions about the right way to do things and will do things his way, no matter what. It takes a lot to convince him that maybe the way he's doing something isn't the best option.
Habits/Mannerisms: He has a very patented 'I'm not impressed' face.
Opinions:
Threadfall Theory: Chances are pretty good and if it does come back and they didn't prepare, they're going to be pretty fucked.
Stealing/Kidnapping: He supposes it was necessary.
Weryrleader S'kef: sneers distastefully Uppity brownrider.
Firelizards: Concerned when they first appeared, now ambivalent
Women's loss of honourifics: He's not a huge fan of women on fighting dragons, but he thought the change could have been done in a way that had less people yelling incessantly.
Return North: Well, of course they have to go back North, that's been part of the whole point, hasn't it?

History
Father: R'ner, b.658, d.716 (unconfirmed)
Rank: Brownrider
Mother: Jonaquill, b.671, d.???
Rank: Lower Caverns
Siblings:
Plenty of half siblings, only one relevant, younger half brother, Jonahir of blue Mavrith, b.698, d.716 (unconfirmed)
Past Lovers/Partners: A'mad of green Bellicath (sort of)
Current Lovers/Partners: No one steady
Children: Yes. One from pre Plague, b.714-716, who stayed in the North with their mother, probably a small handful after the dragonriders reunite (no more than 5).
Background Story:
693 AL & Birth: Jazaquin is born to Jonaquill and R'ner. The two are not together, but R'ner decides to be peripherally involved in his new son's life.
698 AL & 5 Turns: His mother gives birth to another son, a half brother to Jazaquin. The baby, Jonahir, almost immediately becomes Jazaquin's favorite sibling and he pays a lot of attention to him.
699-704 AL & 6-11 Turns: Typical weyrbrat childhood, spends a lot of time with Jonahir, teaching him everything he knows.
705 AL & 12 Turns: Stands for the first time
709 AL & 16 Turns: Impresses to bronze Iexikelth, who is the smallest bronze in the clutch.
710-711 AL & 17-18 Turns: Weyrlinghood. They get some shit from their age mates, especially fellow bronzes, due to Iexikelth being a scrawny Weyrling. This cements a defiant sense of self worth in both of them, that later morphs into proper arrogance, at least in part due to Iexikelth filling out into a very nice bronze as he reaches his second turn. Jazaquin becomes J'zaq at graduation.
714 AL & 21 Turns: Jonahir Impresses, to a blue named Mavrith, and J'zaq is so proud of his brother. He'd have loved it if Jonahir had Impressed bronze too, but Jonahir loves Mavrith so much and J'zaq just wants his brother to be happy.
715 AL & 22 Turns: J'zaq spends much of the turn in a sort of relationship with a gold Candidate. She becomes pregnant towards the end of the turn, right around when Plague hits...
716 AL & 23 Turns: Early 716, as the Plague ravages the Weyrs, the word goes out that Weyrwoman Katila of High Reaches has told her dragonriders to go South, and the leadership of Igen is quick to follow suit. The Igen Weyrwoman's gold had already gone between and the Weyrleader's bronze had fallen ill, making it very clear that even the strongest of dragons were not safe. Terrified for Iexikelth, J'zaq packs up and flees, not even saying goodbye to Jonahir, as much as it breaks his heart; Mavrith, not even full grown, has fallen ill and Jonahir won't leave his side. J'zaq can't be sure he won't transmit the illness to Iexikelth if he sees his brother, so he leaves a note and heads South, alone.
717 AL & 24 Turns: Sometime during the turn J'zaq and Iexikelth ran into another dragon pair in the jungles of the South - A'mad of green Bellicath, formerly of High Reaches. J'zaq is hesitant initially, but Iexikelth especially misses dragon companionship and eventually they establish a slightly uneasy living arrangement.
718-719 AL & 25-26 Turns: J'zaq and A'mad co-exist and survive the next few turns in the wilds of the South.
720 AL & 27 AL : Nirinath's call goes out, and they reunite with the other riders.
721-731 AL & 28-38 Turns: Nothing that exciting for J'zaq. He tries to distance himself from A'mad (doesn't like feeling reliant on a greenrider) and get back to more regular Weyr-ish life.
732 AL & 39 Turns: Does not approve of S'kef being acting Weyrleader at all but they don't have a system in place to say he can't be, so J'zaq seethes quietly.
733 Al & 40 Turns: Very ill at ease about the whole execution thing. Decides to lie low for a while and not attract attention.
734 AL & 41 Turns: Landslide. J'zaq's most immediate problem is that his left hand is crushed by debris while he is trying to help a young brownrider out of a building. One finger needs to be removed, and part of another. The prognosis is that he will recover most of his movement as long as he gives it plenty of time to heal and is diligent about stretching and exercising it (he is). He learns at some point in the days following the Landslide that A'mad and Bellicath died, which he has mixed feelings about.
735 AL & 42 Turns: Focuses on healing and taking care of himself, moves North with the rest.
737 AL & 43 Turns: Moves to Ista a turn after it opens because J'zaq decides he misses the heat.

Education
Education Details: Whatever a Weyr education was like pre-Plague. Can read, write, do math.
Dragon
Dragon Name: Iexikelth
Name Pronounced: ee-ECKS-ih-kelth
Dragon Colour: Bronze
Wing Assigned: TBD
Wing Rank: Wingrider
Hatching Date: 30.12.709 AL
Birthing Weyr: Igen Weyr
Home Weyr: Ista
Clutch Name: Soaring Beauty
Clutch Mother: Gold Trilth
Clutch Father: Bronze Rakoth
Appearance:
Length: 29'
Height: 16' (bit tall)
Wingspan: 43'
Scars & Markings: Plenty over the turns
Weyrlinghood: An extraordinarily scrawny Hatchling, Iexikelth is very thin and all leg and wing. His hide is a coppery color, bronze but with a lot of red and orange undertones. There are a few lighter, bronzer patches, noticeably one on his nose.
Adulthood: Iexikelth fills out once he reaches his first turn, and while he’s still tall and thin for his color he puts on more of the muscle that is typical of bronzes. His color also becomes more standard, though the coppery undertones remain.
Mindvoice: Sonorous and smooth
General Character Traits: The combination of being a bronze and his rider's own vanity gave Iexikelth a very strong sense of self worth. The teasing he got as a Weyrling only made him more determined to prove himself, and a smug satisfaction when he's recognized. Iexikelth doesn't, however, let his arrogance turn him into an asshole, even if he often thinks he's better than most others. Competence gains his respect, though he's not immune to flattery and people who are respectful towards him and his rider are often automatically held in higher regard.
While J'zaq isn't an idiot, Iexikelth is the brains of the pair. His wit is sharp and his tongue is sharper, and while he rarely speaks to other riders he has a lot to say about them and their failings. Liking someone does not keep them safe from his scathing words, and it's very easy to think that means he doesn't like someone. The best way to tell is by agreeing with him - if Iexikelth likes someone, he will immediately inform you about how wrong you are, even though you were agreeing with him. He can be mean to them because he doesn't mean it, no one else can.
Habits/Mannerisms: Iexikelth doesn't like eating his food in the same place he killed it, preferring to bring it at least a small number of lengths away before settling in to eat.

RP Sample
It shouldn't have happened, Iexikelth said, commenting on the conversation he was eavesdropping on through his rider. J'zaq was trying to peacefully eat his dinner, but some brownriders were talking loudly nearby and Iexikelth was notoriously interested in keeping up with the goings on of the Weyr (it wasn't gossip, he insisted, he was staying on top of current events so he could respond properly).
'What shouldn't have? J'zaq asked, not really having been paying much attention to what the brownriders were saying. He heard the words, but wasn't processing them, instead focusing on trying to remember if he needed to arrange for laundry to be done or not.
Thallyath's Clutch, Iexikelth clarified, trying to direct J'zaq's attention to the nearby conversation so he could hear it better.
'I didn't see you catching her,' J'zaq said mildly, continuing to eat his meal. He'd mostly gotten tired of hearing of the upcoming Hatching. All the bronzes had fucked up and not taken her Flight seriously and look what happened. They couldn't take it back now, and it's not like they were making the bluerider Weyrleader, thank Faranth. It was a reminder to all of them that they couldn't relax and let some fucking blue Weyrling ridden by a woman catch a gold dragon. It was a disgrace and it would never happen again, even if they had to catch every gold themselves.
I thought one of the others would Catch her, Iexikelth said angrily, which J'zaq knew was a cover for shame. His bronze was mad at the other bronzes, but also himself for underestimating Thallyath and a blue dragon who was barely old enough to have a sex drive. Well, motivation to do better for all of them. And as much as J'zaq hated to wish any dragon ill, it would probably be best if Thallyath's tiny Clutch were full of duds - easier on everyone, that way. Even Thallyath. Iexikelth humphed in agreement, going back to eavesdropping on the brownriders as if listening to brownriders talk shit would make him feel any better.
