~Dragonriders of Pern Characters~

Lavendarna
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Rank: Self proclaimed Candidate
Pet(s): None. No critters like to even be near her.
Dragon Preferences: Lavendarna: "Why do I need a preference? Everyone knows that I AM going to get Gold." Luna: "Poor thing shouldn't even Impress at all. ^_^ Poor, sad, misguided fool."
Personality:
A rotten little brat. She is a scheming, evil creature who always has a smile on her ugly face to hide her plans. Lavendarna believes that Pern revolves around her, and while she has not achieved greatness yet, she is destined to become the most famous person to ever grace it's soil. Basically, she is just selfish and incredibly shallow.

Appearance:
In her own eyes, she is a delicate flower of amazing beauty. Any boy who's ever seen her could tell you that she's probably one of the most ugly girls they've ever seen. Her hair is a muddy brown color, long and pulled back in a braid. It almost always has an oily sheen to it, as she doesn't bathe as often as most. Her eyes are hard to see, as they are tiny slits in her round, pudgy face. She eats a lot, and it shows on her short figure.

History:
Her mother was the mistress of a holder. Not a lord, or anyone of importance, so it is a wonder that she turned out to be such a brat. Despite her poor status at birth, Esmera would not have her only daughter doomed to be only a tiny bit more than a drudge. So she treated Lavendarna like a spoiled queen, and made sure the girl acted like one, too. There might of been some hope for Lavendarna, she almost had a friend who could have turned her around, but then Esmera died, leaving Lavendarna in the care of her father. The girl became worse and worse, bossing everyone around and treating them all like dirt, as if that might bring back her mother somehow. One day she became fed up, and left, saying that she had been Searched. It may have taken her sevendays (no one will ever hear the true story), but she made it to Telgar Weyr. Once there, she acted as though she owned the place. She asked bewildered Weyrfolk to direct her to the barracks (she was just a "lost Candidate" after all!), and once her things were put away, that poor Weyr wasn't going to be rid of her without a fight. If any asked her who had Searched her, or why she hadn't come a dragonback, Lavendarna would throw a fit. They had no right to question HER! Often the tantrums would scare off her accusers, so day after day she managed to stick around. Just when it was looking like some of the ranking riders might kick her out, the Hatching started. She was left standing, of coarse, but before she could get settled in any more, she was transferred to another Weyr that badly needed Candidates. Thus she moved from Weyr to Weyr. If any place was close to kicking her out, she would cry and tell them she had no where else to go. Her mother was dead and her father beat her! Oh woe and sorrow! Transfer papers would be done up, and she would be passed off on the next unlucky Weyr. This time, it's Rainbow Mists.



Name: N'tin
Dragon: Midnight Locheth
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Rank: Weyrling
Weyrmate: None
Pet(s): None
Personality:
He has always been one to smile often though it isn't always a nice one. His favourite use of his smile is to charm women. Those that would otherwise avoid him often become his target and N'tin has yet to abandon such a quest without success. Aside from chasing girls, he is a fairly mild guy. Life on Pern just isn't exciting enough for him most of the time so he sort of slides through life hoping something fun happens since making something happen has always gotten him into big trouble in the past.

Appearance:
N'tin is far from the 'tall, dark and handsome' stereotype but still has something about him that women love. You couldn't ask him what it was though. All he knows is that he's very good looking and that's how he wants it. N'tin is just under six feet with light skin and a soft face that isn't quite boyish (he has a very smug smile that removes all innocence from his features) but isn't rough with a square jaw or facial hair either. His eyes are a deep amber and has honey blond hair that is slightly darker than his eyes.

History:
For most of his young life his old aunties and uncles were always telling him that there had been Dragonriders in their family in the past and he was destined to be one as well. Though second oldest, with an older brother and scores of younger siblings, he was treated better than any of the older holdbrats. He was also scolded more when he did something bad. For some reason, the hopes and far fetched dreams of Naatin's parents and other family members rested on him instead of his older brother. For awhile the idea of becoming a Dragonrider was as grand to him as it was for his family. Which made it easy for him to act as though be believed it. As he grew older, his interest in the Harper Hall (and women) grew without his family knowing. To them, he still acted like a future Bronzrider; as though he too knew he would be a Weyrleader, but Naatin had other plans. One night he ran away from the Hold and found his way to the Hall. From there he was Searched and sent to Rainbow Mists Weyr after failing to Impress at his first Hatching. Naatin wasn't too happy about being Searched but after his nagging family started to bug him at the Hall, he was grateful to be sent to a Weyr so far from home. A short time after arriving at RMW, there was a double Hatching at which N'tin Impressed Midnight Locheth.

Dragon

Locheth
Age: Just Hatched
Color: Midnight
Personality:
While his bonded likes to act proud, Locheth is a very proud little dragonet. No doubt as he gets older he'll enjoy going after the females and will become a very confident dragon in anything he does.

Appearance:
His hide is mostly black, the dark blue swirls only showing up on his back and sides. His underbelly also has the blue but it is so dark it almost entirely blends in.

History:
He Hatched from the lone egg clutched by Citrine Moth and White Sairyth.
