BROWN RIDER NS'KEI

Persona : Ns'kei (Nesekei)
Writing Status : PC/Active
Age : 24
Gender : Male
Rank/Craft : Brown Rider, Wingrider (UFRF)
Residence : Thread's End Weyr

Physical Description : Ns'kei is tall with a big build. He keeps his light brown hair closely cropped to his scalp and is quite tanned.

Personality : Highly disciplined, Ns'kei keeps a strict regime for himself and his dragon. During his weyrling days, he never shirked or complained about any duties, but would do them as well as he could because "that's part of the training to be a good dragonrider." He has a high respect for people in authority.

Though he has been in the Weyr for four turns now, he still feels out of place and not very comfortable with the fluid nature of weyrlife. Experiencing the deaths of wingmates and friends to Threadfall was especially hard for him.

Life Story : Ns'kei was born in a farming hold. Strict parents, hard work in the fields and long hours under the sun moulded his childhood years. Though stern, his parents were loving and their children grew up happily on the farm.

The family knew little about dragons or the Weyrs, seldom coming into contact with them. The children would pause in their work in the fields to watch the tiny specks of dragons flying high above them.

One day after a good harvest, his father decided to bring his oldest children to a gather. The gather was a first for the young people, and it was an exciting time for them. Nesekei had never seen so many people in a single place before. And the dragons! They were so near he could almost touch them - if he dared. Nesekei was both ecstatic and numb with fear when a green dragon swung her head around and, a mere handspan away, regarded him solemnly with her multi-faceted eyes.

Before he knew it, the green rider was in deep conversation with his father. There followed more meetings with dragonriders until his father agreed to let Nesekei stand for Impression. Life in the Weyr was an eye-opener for the young man. He had a hard time adjusting to its dynamic nature and having so many people around unnerved him initially. Then came Impression, and all thoughts of leaving the Weyr and returning to his parents' farm disappeared when brown Corjunth emerged from his shell.

Dragon's Name : Corjunth
Dragon's Colour : Brown
Dragon's Age : 4 (TEW35-3)
Sire and Dam : Solarth/Salarnath
Age of Rider at Impression : 20

Dragon's Description : Like his rider, Corjunth is big for his age and colour. He is muscular, with strong and powerful wings and hind legs. His hide is a deep brown.

Dragon's Personality : Corjunth lives to fight Thread. However, his bigger than normal size means he has a harder time managing the swerves and sharp turns that are at times necessary during Fall. Seemingly tireless, he would be willing to drill every hour of the day, if it meant flaming more Thread.

Outside of Threadfall however, Corjunth is shy and a bit reserved.
