Appearance

      

Eyes: He has dark brown eyes that are slightly large, making him look young and surprised a lot of the time. His eyebrows are fairly thick. 

Hair: Short black hair that tends to stick up. G'nen tries to keep it all going the same direction, and sometimes tries to slick it back, but the wind usually frustrates his efforts.

Height: 5'9"

General Appearance: G'nen likes to put on a cheerful face, both to put others at ease and because he is a generally cheerful person, and it has left a mark on his body in the form of premature lines. Laugh lines, crows feet, and some forehead wrinkles show G'nen's propensity for smiling and laughing , and sometimes seem at odds with the rest of his more youthful appearance.

He has a broad forehead and wide-set ears. 

As a dragonrider, G'nen has the physical fitness most dragonriders have due to caring for and riding dragons. He also spent about half his life on the Southern Continent, where more hard labor was necessary, resulting in more muscle than he might otherwise have. 

Dressing Style: As the son of the Weyrleaders G'nen always felt pressure to look the part, so he was careful about his appearance. While on the Southern Continent nice clothing was harder to come by, especially before the founding of Katila, but G'nen did his best to remain presentable whenever possible. He nearly cried in joy the first time he went to a textile market after the return North.
      

      

Personality

      

General Character Traits: G'nen is known for being cheerful, always smiling and laughing. He tries to see the best in everyday life, though he can be serious when it matters. He is very devoted to his family and his dragon, and has always been a bit of a mama's boy. 

He was raised with the idea that the dragons and his Weyr are of the utmost importance, and he maintains that belief. G'nen will work tirelessly for what he believes (or is told) is for the good of the dragonriders. Even things he personally finds distasteful, he will often push his own feelings aside to get the job done. 

Habits/Mannerisms: G'nen tends to bite the nail on his thumbs when thinking. His thumbnails are somewhat permanently damaged because of it. 

Opinions: 
      Threadfall Theory: Absolutely going to return. His parents were convinced of it, and he has seen no proof to the contrary.
      Stealing/Kidnapping: Regrettable. He likely had to accompany Searchriders on occasion, and he fulfilled his duty to the Weyr, even if it made him uncomfortable.

      Firelizards:Very cute.

      Return North: Home! He has a great nostalgia for the Northern Weyrs,  and his mother seems happier, so he's happier.

Likes: 
      His Family: G'nen holds his family close, and likes spending time with them.
      Group Meals: Eating alone sucks, and even if he has no one in particular to eat with, G'nen will introduce himself to someone rather than eat by himself.
      Good Boots: One thing G'nen has learned to truly appreciate is a good pair of boots. While he's not picky about his clothing in general, boots are an exception to that rule.

Dislikes: 
      Illness: G'nen has know too many people to die from illness and gets into a right panic if he or anyone he knows gets sick. 
      Felines: He almost didn't make it out of the attack that permanently scarred Yanth, and the beasts are a part of the South he will not miss. 
      Family Fighting: Infighting among families or lovers makes G'nen uncomfortable and upset. He loves his family so much, the idea of truly fighting with them hurts, and it makes him sad for the people who are fighting.

Strengths: 
      Accessible: G'nen doesn't get hung up about rank, and his cheerful demeanor puts many people at ease around him, making him easy to talk to. 
      Hardworking: If given a task, G'nen will see it through to the best of his ability.
      Thoughtful: He genuinely cares about others, and tries to make everyone as happy and comfortable as possible.

Flaws: 
      Gullible: G'nen is honest, and assumes other people are as well. So when someone lies to him, he tends to believe it. 
      Curious: In the sense of asking really personal questions to people he barely knows and making it awkward and, in many cases, causing the other person to get angry. 
      Compliant: He doesn't usually think to question authority. He's learned to do it some over the years, but it rarely occurs to him right away. If asked to complete a task, he will do so to the best of his ability, and may not have considered any impact it may have. 
      

      

History

      

Father: K'tios, b.681 AL, d.??? (presumed 716 AL)
   Rank: Weyrleader of Igen 
Mother: Wenon, b.06.13.678 AL
   Rank: Weyrwoman of Igen (previous), goldrider (previous), goldrider Mentor
Siblings:None
Past Lovers/Partners: Various people from the greens Yanth has Flown for, women in Katila.
Current Lovers/Partners: N/A
Children:  He knows he has a few children (There's a weyrbrat at Ista that has his mother's eyes). The only one he knows for sure of is Galatea (b.724 AL)
Background Story:
   701 AL & Birth: Gedrenen is born to Wenon and K'tios.
   703 AL & 2 Turns: Gedrenen's parents become the Igen Weyrleaders. Being 2 Turns old, he hardly notices the difference.
   706 AL & 5 Turns: A bit of a terror as a child, Gedrenen is all smiles and laughs, and despite all the trouble he gets into no one can stay mad at him for long. Has a particularly scary experience where he gets himself trapped in a barrel for several hours before he's found. 
   Year & Age:
   Year & Age:
   713 AL & 12 Turns: At 12 Turns Gedrenen is first allowed to Stand at Hatchings. He does not Impress in this year, which he finds somewhat disappointing, but he also kind of wants a dragon from one of his parents' dragons' clutches. 
   714 AL & 13 Turns: His wish is granted, and Gedrenen Impresses brown Yanth from one of Jormath and Teglioth's clutches. 
   715 AL & 14 Turns: The Plague starts, and G'nen is deeply afraid for Yanth and his family.
   716 AL & 15 Turns: Upon hearing of Katila's order that all of High Reaches Weyr escape South, K'tios and Wenon give the same order to Igen. K'tios stays in Igen, for by then Teglioth has fallen ill. G'nen begs his mother to accompany him South with Yanth, and she agrees.

The journey across the ocean is difficult for the small group, as Yanth is barely full grown. G'nen and Yanth are young and inexperienced, so Wenon shares her memories of Jormath's flying with Yanth to help him make the journey. They manage to find a small, isolated bay where they build their new home. G'nen and Yanth do most of the work in the beginning, as Wenon is somewhat out of it. 
   718 AL & 17 Turns: While searching for food, G'nen and Yanth are attacked by Felines. They successfully fight them off, but Yanth is permanently scarred by the experience, with claw marks all along his left leg. With Wenon's help, they manage to make a poultice to keep infection away from the wounds. Yanth recovers from the experience, though his left leg does get stiff in colder weather ever since. 
   720 AL 19 Turns: Yanth hears Nirinath's Call, and the three agree to reunite with the other dragonriders.
   721 AL & 20 Turns: G'nen learns that his uncle, S'ros, died while on the Southern Continent. His surviving weyrmate, Ah'gre, moved in with him and his mother.
   722 & 21 Turns:  G'nen was rather popular among the women of Katila, as he was one of the younger full dragonriders, which some women seemed to find appealing. As a 21 turn old man who had been alone with only his mother for human company for four years, he took to this very enthusiastically. 
   724 AL & 23 Turns: His first known child, a girl named Galatea, is born to a serving woman. He has no permanent relationship with the mother, but he tries to be part of Galatea's life when possible. 
   729 AL & 28 Turns: Galatea's mother dies of illness, and the girl moves in with G'nen, Wenon, and Ah'gre. 
   732 AL & 31 Turns: Ah'gre dies of illness, and Skaith goes Between. G'nen had grown close to his 'uncle' and mourned the man's death.
   734 AL & 33 Turns: Wenon, G'nen, and Yanth survive the Landslide fairly unscathed, as survivors go. 

The return North is announced. G'nen is excited at the prospect of returning North, the home of his childhood, though he knows he will miss the Southern Continent. He worked so hard to make it work and make it his own
   735 AL & 34 Turns: Wenon rides North with G'nen and Yanth, and they move into Telgar. 
   736 AL & 35 Turns: G'nen and Wenon go with the group repopulating Fort. He brings Galatea with them as well.
   Year & Age:
      

      

Education

      

Education Details: Basic weyrbrat education. He got some extra lessons as the son of the Weyrleaders, and is proficient at reading, writing, and figuring. 

      

Dragon

      

Dragon Name: Yanth
      Name Pronounced: Yeah-nth
Dragon Colour: Brown
Wing Assigned: TBA
      Wing Rank: Wingrider

Hatching Date: 07.03.714 AL
Birthing Weyr: Igen
Home Weyr: Fort
Clutch:
      Clutch Mother: gold Jormath
      Clutch Father: bronze Teglioth
      
Appearance: 
      Length: 24'
      Height: 13'
      Wingspan: 37.75'
      Scars & Markings: Various old scars from the Southern Continent. Some from helping leverage materials to build shelters and other structures. A set on his front let leg from a Feline attack. 
      Weyrlinghood: Tawny brown with a dark dorsal stripe.
      Adulthood: Very dark brown, with tawnier underbelly, lower neck, underside of tail, and underside of jaw. (Basically, his dorsal stripe spread.) Yanth has notably powerful hind legs and a smaller front of body, allowing him to launch himself far into the air. Inherited from his father, Teglioth, who used the extra launching power to catch a certain gold, Yanth uses the ability to great effect on the Southern Continent, where being able to get in the air and get there fast can be a lifesaving ability. 

Mindvoice: Calm and melodious. 

General Character Traits: People often comment on the similarities between G'nen and his dragon. While they may be similar on the surface, the two are not as similar as people perceive them. Yanth is by far the lazier of the two, sometimes bemoaning his rider's tendency to offer help to whoever needs it, even when it's their day off. 

As a dragonet, Yanth was fairly high strung for a brown. He leveled out as he aged, helped by his experiences crossing to the Southern Continent and surviving there practically alone. Nowadays it takes a lot to phase Yanth.  

Habits/Mannerisms: Though Yanth is no longer high strung as he was in youth, he never lost the habit of shifting his weight from foot to foot when standing still for long periods of time. 

Likes: 
      Beaches: Absolute best place to bask in the sun. The Northern beaches are not nearly as nice as the Southern ones, unfortunately. 
      Children: He finds them fascinating, though he has little chance to interact with them.
      Firelizards: Yanth thinks they're sweet and amusing. 

Dislikes: 
      Storms: Due to a storm they passed through the edge of while traveling to the Southern Continent, Yanth has a deep dislike of flying during storms. 
      Winter: His feline scarred leg tends to ache in colder, rainier weather. It makes him a bit grumpy. 
      The smell of most herbs: Yanth and G'nen have had enough injuries that needed dressing in some fashion that the smell of healing herbs and poultices makes Yanth wrinkle his nose in discomfort. 

Strengths: 
      Rational: He likes to think things through before making judgments, and weighs all the information he knows. 
      Positive: Yanth has become skilled in keeping a positive outlook, even when things look grim. 
      Courteous: A very polite dragon, Yanth shares his rider's propensity for being respectful and polite to people an dragons of all ranks. 

Flaws: 
      Lazy: Despite being hardworking when he has to be, his favorite thing to do when not working is sleep. 
      Disobedient: On the Southern Continent, Yanth had to learn to make decisions when G'nen could not, or react when G'nen made poor ones. He learned to sometimes use his own judgement above that of his rider's. He's not actively confrontational or disobedient, but if he disagrees he will rarely follow orders. 
      Blunt: Yanth says it like it is, even if it hurts.

RP Sample

      

It will rain today. Yanth said mournfully as G'nen debated what to wear for the day. The brown's comment prompted G'nen to opt for a thicker pair of pants than he was considering.

"Good thing we had no plans to go anywhere today, then." He commented, buttoning up his chosen shirt. "I don't want to either go Between or fly any distance in weather like that." He could feel Yanth's agreement, as well as hear the dragon's claws scrape against the weyr floor as he shifted beyond the space divider.

Maybe you can ask the Weyrleader for some paperwork. Yanth said wryly, You get to stay inside and be useful, and I can nap.

"I'm going to take you up on that, you know." G'nen said, laughing. "It actually sounds like a good idea."

You are a strange human, sometimes. Yanth sighed, curling up in a comfortable position as his rider finished dressing and left the room.
