Weyrling
[/font][/size]General Information
[/blockquote][/blockquote]Character name: Shanruk
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Appearance: Slightly tanned, with strong features, it is interesting that Shanruk can be one of those people who can simply slip into the background and walk away. Strong build with broad shoulders, you think you would be able to remember him, but there is just something that makes him seem like every other male, though most never truly see him. He has a large nose, something that sticks out only because it is so massive. It doesn't help that his lips seem thin and his eyes set back a bit.
Personality: Determined, loyal, stubborn, smug, and snobby are just a few words to describe Shanruk. He has that air about him that seems to turn most off from bothering him. The aggressive nature of his father has rubbed off on him a bit, causing him to come off rude and edgy, almost snappy in some cases. That's not really how he means, he just doesn't have much dealings with people and finds them annoying at times.
Besides being this edgy, aggressive young man, Shanruk can actually be quiet caring, at least he comes off that way if there is already a sort of bond between himself and whoever he is dealing with. A bit stand-offish with new people, he comes off disinterested until he gets to know you a bit better. However, once you have earned this rouge's trust and respect, you have a friend for life.
History: Born to two servants, Shaniante and Natiruk, at Dark Hold, Shanruk hardly saw his birth parents once he began his teen years. Yes, he was raised by them, not sent to a crechewoman, but Natiruk was the personal servant to the Hold Lady and Shaniante was a kitchen servant. They had little time for their child, having only the one and no more.
As a young child, Shanruk saw a part of his father that he should have never seen. Due to the way his family was, his mother was a higher ranking servant than his father and as a result, his father would abuse his mother whenever anything came up about their work during the day. So just about every night, Shanruk would hear his mother crying and his father yelling at her. This lasted until wind got to the Hold Lady that her favorite servant was being mistreated by her husband. Shortly after that, Shanruk and his mother was moved into the Hold. However, the damage had been done and Shanruk couldn't unsee what he had seen.
As he grew, the young man that Shanruk became was something of an oddity. He became aggressive, driven, and hard to control. He balked at any order given by any male, finding little to respect in those men that tried to control those around them. However, when it came to the women in his young life, such as his mother or the Hold Lady, he had no problem doing as they asked.
It was a surprise when the Searchrider, from Darkened Weyr, showed up and asked for the Hold Lord's sons and daughters. However, the Hold Lord offered up Shanruk before any of his own children. It was more of a ploy to get rid of the young boy than showing any kindness toward the wild child that his wife seemed to favor over their own and it worked, when the dragon announced that he would be the only one they took back to the Weyr. Shanruk was fourteen Turns old.
For five long Turns, Shanruk Stood as a Candidate. Not once did he ever Impress a dragon. He Stood alongside Lokin and the others when the twin Golds were hatched and he Stands beside those that have yet to Impress still. However, he was claimed by a little red firelizard that had injured a wing when he hatched. The little Clip, for the wing membrane that had to be clipped in order to save the whole wing.
Goals: --
Pets: Red firelizard Clip - Clip may be one of the smallest firelizards on record, his body no bigger than the width of Shan's hand and no longer than from his palm to the middle of his forearm, but he has a wicked disposition. Being a red, it is no surprise that this little guy is violent, aggressive, and easily provoked. As long as he is on Shan's shoulder then most are safe; however, he gets feisty if Shan isn't around. So it would be wise to keep your hands to yourself.
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Dragonrider Information
[/blockquote][/blockquote]Dragon name: Simath
Dragon color: Red
Dragon description: Simath is a beautiful red. He’s medium for a red, at 20 meters. He is a dark dark red, but his under patter, of small lines, is even darker, with a grayer tint. He’s handsome, with only one problem with having a slightly sorter front right leg. It’s nearly imperceptible when he’s moving, and only if you really look for it do you notice that he’s not sitting flat. In the air, it doesn’t’ t matter. He’s a powerful flier, and stronger than most reds. He can fly longer, but no where near as long as a blue.
Dragon personality: Simath’s anger is a cold one. Only flaring after a lot of pushing. And even then… most don’t even know it. He’s not easy to control, wanting to attack anything that anger’s him. He’s otherwise smooth. Nothing bother’s him. He’s just… There. Except when he IS. He’s a dangerous dragon, and only the fact that he’s surrounded by humans and the fact that his mother and aunt would eat him alive if he did hurt a human keeps him from killing them every time. Of course he’ll listen to his rider, but he’s a hand full.
Clutch code: 650202 & 572F2F
