Recruitment: I blame Blue....
Email: katgod5@yahoo.com
Character
Name: Akriseus (it is my solemn duty to create names that are hard to change into honorifics )
Rank: Candidate/ Weyr Guard in training
Gender: male
Age: 17
Origin: Ponaa Weyr
Appearance:
(Face Claim: Sam Worthington)
At first glance, Akriseus is tall and muscular with deep set dark blue eyes. His hair is brown, medium to light brown to be more specific and it comes to a widow's peak in the center of his forhead. This gives him a symmetrical appearance. He keeps his hair as short and close to his head as possible. The less time he has to spend on it the better. He also likes to keep his face clean though he often leaves it a little scruffy when he grows too lazy to shave it every morning. His eyebrows are slightly lighter than his hair and not thick like some men. His eyelashes are long but light in color.
Wide set shoulders make his upper body shape somewhat triangular as the body is slimmer where his waist is. He has solid legs not thick but not thin and muscular. Akriseus keeps every part of his body fit, including cardiovascularly as he goes on long runs every morning with his sister. When the weather is permitting he enjoys swimming as well. From being out in all weather he has a tough skin that is usually tan and slight wrinkles in the corner of his eye from squinting in the sun.
He has thin lips that slant ever so slightly. A smile that seems sweet but often is simply cocky, will sometimes grace his face revealing straight white teeth. He has comely ears that seem to curve inward a bit at the top. Though he has a small chin there is a slight cleft in the middle of it. Its not large so like his widow's peak this seperates one half of his face from the other, making it seem symmetrical (even if it isn't).
His neck is neither thick nor thin and is not overly long. Akriseus wears the finest clothing he can afford often in colors the every day drudge would not be able to purchase. He does make marks working as a Weyr Guard and spends them to keep himself looking good. His shoes are also good quality and made from leather, similair to dragonrider's boots. He will wear any color that looks good on him and tries to keep with the style of the time.
Family:
Maraklar-Grandfather, Weyr Guard (69) retired.
Anasue- Grandmother, drudge (66) died last turn
D'seus - Grandfather, rider of blue Urisuth (deceased)
Isyris- Grandmother, drudge (deceased)
Aklar- father Weyr Guard (44). A strong man both in body and mind he is determined to protect the Weyr and those within it. He is handsome for his age though committed to his weyrmate.
Yriseus- mother Creche nurse (41) became infertile after the birth of Yrilar who died minutes after birth. She has never truly gotten over his loss and likely never will. A shadow of the former light hearted woman she is now quiet and reserved.
Siblings
Klyriseu (sister, 16) Candidate, beautiful like her brother and a bit brighter. She tends to need just as much attention and has no time for ugly people.
Yrilar (brother, deceased)
Aunts and Uncles
Fathers side
A'lar - uncle, (46) rider of green Etrisath (29) (deceased) no children
Klasue- aunt (40) kitchen drudge (2 children)
Mother's side
Isyreus- uncle (38), journeyman farmer (1 child)
Cousins
Klatok (20, m) Cook, loves food...which explains the rotund body of this jovial young man. (son of Klasue and Metok, a drudge)
Klaenar (17, m) Candidate, Apprentice Dragon Healer, quick on his feet and rather likable. He and his brother were both blessed with their mother's indomitable optimism and jovial persona. (son of Klasue and R'mar rider of blue Toruth. Died 13 turns ago)
Isynia (15, f) Candidate/ Assists Healers in the infirmary. A very protected and hold-like girl. She prefers to speak with adults and has few friends in her peer group. (daughter of Isyreus and his deceased mate Rania )
Sexual Orientation: Are you hot? (prone to narcissism)
Personality:
Sometimes the world actually does revolve around you. Just ask Akriseus. Maybe he was born this way or perhaps his mother's inability to spend time with him after Yrilar's death has had a bigger impact on him than anyone could anticipate. Whatever the case, Akriseus is a very self centered person. So much so that it borders on narcissism. He loves beautiful things and this transcends to people as well.
Akriseus believes he is what every man should be. Strong, smart enough to get by and attractive with a solid future ahead of him, dragon or not. He has a plan either way. On top of this he believes he has a great personality and good sense of humor. Sometimes he talks about subjects that he fancies just to make himself seem more intelligent than he actually is and other times he just likes to hear himself speak.
He yearns for attention especially from those people he deems beautiful and interesting. His sister is his closest friend and often they help each other choose new friends and lovers. Who else can they trust to be picky enough? No one but themselves and even sometimes no one is good enough, not even each other to choose for them. Akriseus loves a feast and dancing, which is actually something he is good at despite his size. He loves red meat but is not overly fond of bubbly pies. Too sweet for him. He can eat more than one would think he could but will not eat more than he needs. He is never overfull.
The real question on everyone's mind is whether or not Akriseus is capable of loving something other than himself. In truth not even Akriseus knows. A dragon will require that love and so would a life mate. Impression would be a real test of who he is. Who is the person behind the body? At seventeen its hard to tell what really does lie beneath.
Hobbies/Skills: Expert hand to hand combat skills as well as skilled with several weapons.
Pets:Even if it were possible he doesn't care to have one.
History: There is little that is unknown about his past. Most people who know him also know that he was the first born of the Weyrguard Aklar and his weyrmate Yriseus. His father and mother doted on him as if the sun and moon rose and fell for him. When his sister was born just a turn later they fully expected to have a large happy family.
Akriseus was a strong and protective older brother, though he could be slow to do his chores and often pawned them off onto someone who wanted his attention. His little sister is a mirror image of him even her personality matches his closely though there is an insidious side to her that Akriseus lacks. Still most people are under the impression at first that the pair are twins.
As there mother continued to have trouble conceiving after Klyriseu was born, the whole family was happy to hear she was pregnant and had past her first trimester without a problem. Akriseus, already nine was happy for his mother but also a bit jealous of all the attention. It was at this time that his father suggested the boy come with him and learn some fighting and training for the Weyr Guard. This took Akriseus' mind off of things.
Nothing would have prepared them for the loss of the newly born, Yrilar. Even Akriseus had been looking forward to taking the boy under his wing. The depth of his mother's loss, he could never understand. The usual cheery nature of Yriseues was gone and in her place was a dreamy distant soul, a shadow of the person who was. For all that the family was shaken, his father had stepped up and took charge of things, as men should do. He made certain that Akriseus and Klyriseu knew who they were and what their options in life were. He would not lose them like he had their mother.
It was this mind set that made Akriseus even more self centered than he was before. The only person he cared about almost as much as he cared about himself was Klyriseu and for good reason. She was as beautiful as he was and smarter, though he was the stronger of the two and more deadly with a weapon. He took the time to teach her things from his training that his father would never approve of. Sure kitchen and Creche work was more suited for ordinary women, but he and his sister were nothing if not extraordinary.
Time wore on and the young man had entered his teen turns, growing in height and strength, easily towering over his parents and sister. He ate enough for two or possibly three people but one would never know it. The man was pure muscle and so completely self involved at times that he failed to notice some of the glances both men and women were now giving him. That is not to say Akriseus had not begun to explore other people. He simply had high standards. Beauty is only skin deep to him although he'd much prefer to spend time with people that are both interesting and beautiful. So he has surrounded himself with only beautiful people and some of them are interesting too.
If he deems someone unworthy of his presence he will not converse with them or show them any kind of attention. This he feels, separates him from other people. His sister is part of his closest circle of friends. Not one person in this group needs attention more than Akriseus. He had occasion in this last turn to meet a very interesting beautiful rider who perchance mentioned that he would be a good Candidate. So it is with high self confidence that Akriseus plans to stand for the next Clutch.
