Latest Updates

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! Green and Gold dragon flight dates have been shifted to the bottom of the page, where the (useless!) discord widget was located. Where the dragon flights were in the header, is now replaced by a Monthly Event box! This will be updated at the start of each month, with a fun mini-event you can take part in, if you want to! Thistle!

Monthly Event

Welcome to the Month of Lovetm! This month's Monthly Event is all about Romance, whether it is asking someone out on a date, or getting sweaty between the sheets! Anything and everything counts, if it even looks sideways like it could be related to Valentine Day -- including lover's spats, or breaking up, Flights Wins (or Flight Losses!). Honestly, this month has a huge opportunity for interpertation, so go wild!

Ahh, the fresh snow, the crisp air, the naked trees... welcome to Winter! Or, just the Colder Months for those in the more Northern Weyrs, while Ista is just... not as hot. But it is time to enjoy the end of the Turn, so folks should get together, spend some time gossiping, and drinking Hot Chocolate (alcohol and marshmallows opional)... does Pern even have marshmallows?????

Larnell

Lar

Place of Birth:
Ice Ridge Hold
Searched By:

Searched Date:

Player:
Appearance
Eye Colour:
Grey
Height:
6'
Hair Colour:
Blonde
Build:
Slim
General Description:
Thick blonde hair falls in silky waves to Larnell's shoulders, framing a narrow but defined face -- high cheek bones, a fair nose, full lips and small ears hidden away behind the strands. His eyes are an intense shade of grey, thinly lashed but with heavy eyebrows. There is the tiniest of clefts in his chin, barely visible and occasionally hidden by a day's growth. Larnell's body is made up of long, slim limbs that took most of his adolescence to grow into. His fingers are long and nimble, and while he's not a fanatic about keeping fit, he's a decent runner.
General Dressing Style:
Freed from the constraints of being the Heir of his Hold, Larnell now wears whatever he damn well fancies, with a strong preference for soft and comfortable shirts -- with none of the fanfare that was the current fashion at the Hold -- and loose comfortable pants. None of it is tailored to his exact measurements and its strangely freeing.

Mares - they're always so temperamental
Sailing - it makes him seasick
Flaws:

Emotional
Habits & Mannerisms:
Picks at his lower lip when he's thinking
Twirls a lock of his hair when he's reading
General Personality:
Intelligent and well educated, Larnell can come across as cocky because he's not very good at pretending not to know things, and due to his interest in a wide range of topics, he does know a lot more than the average person. Larnell isn't actually cocky, or a knowitall, and gets a bit pouty and upset when he's accused of such things, often frowning - an expression that is often at home on his features.

Larnell has known love, but he also has a close relationship with grief and he does his best to live every day to the best, knowing that at any moment the rug could be pulled out from under his feet, and he doesn't want to have any regrets. As such, he's quick to smile and easy to amuse, and while he can become a raging bull when provoked he usually doesn't hold a grudge. Overall, Larnell feels strongly and without reserve and wears his emotions on his sleeve for everyone to see.

While Larnell misses his mother and siblings intently - they all had a strong bond - he harbours a strong dislike for his father and the pressures that were put on his shoulders by the man. Regardless, he has hope for the future and is eagerly looking forward to the world opened up before him at the Weyr. He is no longer Heir, but he is also no longer bound by the chains that have passed to his younger brother.

R'nd of Blue Ayyonth, Uncle

Arnella[F] b.718
Malarid [M] b.724
Eriarna [F] b.726
Dellarn [M] b.729
Relationships:
Azende, wife, deceased
Offspring:
None, which has been a huge issue with his father.
Secrets:
Known:
Was married to Azende at age 19, when she turned 16
Broke his left arm twice, both times falling off horses, albeit more than ten years apart.
Disowned by his father and was "searched" by his uncle.
Important History:
721.03.01, 0 - Born, the first son to his parents, and their second child.
724.xx.xx, 3 - little brother Malarid is born
726.xx.xx, 5 - younger sister Eriarna is born. Larnell breaks his arm this turn falling off a horse - a mare. Thus beginning his dislike for the female horses who are always so damned fickle and full of attitude..
729.xx.xx, 8 - youngest brother Dellarn is born.
731.xx.xx, 10 - Is engaged to Azende, the eldest daughter of a prominent merchant in Benden Hold
738.xx.xx, 17 - Rebreaks his arm falling off another horse. Damned horses. Also gets a nasty concussion and is stuck in bed for three days recovering.
739.xx.xx, 18 - Azende finally turns fifteen, and the pair are married. They get along well enough, and Larnell is fond of her and her quirky nature.
742.01.15, 20 - after more miscarriages than either of them care to count, Azende finally carries a child to term, only for it to be a stillborn son. Due to complications, Azende doesn't survive the birth.
742.01.17, 20 - Malarn - Larnell's father - is immediately on him to remarry, something he's been hinting at for Larnell to do since Azende's first miscarriage. Grieving for his wife and child, Larnell doesn't hold his tongue and the pair have a huge blowout that results in a lot of simmering anger and harsh words. Larnell refuses to speak to his father for several days, before being confronted. They have another loud, long argument where Larnell calls his father's bluff and tells him to make Malarid the heir, to disown him if that's what will make him happy. Malaran does.
742.02.01, 20 - Having spent the past handful of days avoiding his father at all costs, Larnell is packed up and ready to leave when his uncle conveniently decides to visit the family. With little coaxing, Larnell soon finds himself atop the blue dragon, and leaving his family for the last time. He promises to visit his mother when they can in Benden Hold.
Benito Van Leeuwen
Education
Details:
While Larnell doesn't have an education specific to a Craft, he is highly educated in a large range of topics, thanks to being his father's Heir for a good twenty years. He is intelligent and learns fairly easily, especially since he enjoys learning new things and occupying his mind. He's especially well versed in politics, notably those played by merchants. He has a good eye for geography as well.
