Ku’jaCharacter type: Dragonrider Appearance: The very first thing you will notice about Kuroshetsuja is his hair. How could you not when it is pure white! Not light blond but white, the white of freshly fallen snow (BOD Xmas gift 2012). It is completely one hundred percent natural he was born with white hair. His white hair is shaggy and hangs down to his shoulders but it perfectly frames his features which are slightly effeminate. He has full lips, a strong chin without a trace of hair as he always is clean shaven, an aquiline nose, and almond shaped stormy grey eyes. His white eyebrows slant inwards towards his nose. He is a handsome man with fair skin that will easily burn in the sun. His body has broader shoulders with a narrower waist along with a few old fight scars littering his body. He is slender yet muscled nicely a fairly nicely proportioned man standing at 6’5”. As with all people he has flaws he has a long thread-scar on his chest that runs from his shoulder down to his hips. Personality: When someone is born looking different a few things can happen. One can relish in the attention, preening at it and become confident and assertive with cockiness or they can become shy and self-conscious. Kuroshetsuja (Koo-row-shet-sue-juh) tends to be sort of in the middle not really shy but aloof and mysterious though if someone were to pick on him enough times he’d kick their butt thoroughly. He tends to keep himself distant from others because of his looks and doesn’t talk much preferring to be an enigma. His dragon is one of the few that are allowed in close. He has a cool, quiet confidence about him though that draws people in and usually people like him because he tends to be humble. He avoids any type of drama, staying out of people’s business and will not take sides in conflicts if he cares nothing about it. He doesn’t really let anyone ruffle his feathers but if you can get under his skin enough well just look at the earlier mention of butt kicking. He will never break down in public only his dragon will ever be allowed to see his pain. Not to say he doesn’t smile because he does it is just whenever he wants to smile he will. He is very respectful and treats everyone as his equal. History: Kuroshetsuja’s birth has a bit of irony behind it because he was born during one of the worst blizzards that High Reaches weyr had seen. His mother a greenrider was very shocked to see her child with pure white hair as his father another greenrider had black hair while she had red hair. The child, a flight baby, was placed into the crèche with other children rarely ever seeing his birth parents. Two turns later his mother gave him a half-sibling a red headed brother named Grusticell who he became pretty good friends with. Life was fairly normal for the boy even with getting picked on because of his hair he actually got into a couple of fights when he was pushed too far. He turned twelve and immediately joined candidacy. He stood two turns without impress and his half-brother joined him. It was rather surprising to the fourteen turn old when he saw his brother impressing a blue he had always figured his sibling who was clearly into men and a bit gender confused would impress green. He on the other hand found himself also impressing that same clutch when a green dragonet bowled him over saying ((Oh my apologies mine… Your Meyrinth didn’t mean to knock you over. I am so sorry are you okay? I do so apologize…Oh dear let me get off of you so you can get up and get clean then if you are fine you can feed me that is if you want to. I hope you do I am so sorry mine for being so clumsy, yes I is so clumsy I just wasn’t looking and now you are hurt. Oh please don’t be mad)). It was a bit surprising to him honestly he never thought he’d be just like his parents but once the shock wore off he managed to get *his* green to stop rambling by telling her he forgave her. He then chose the name Ku’ja and took his new green off the sands. His sibling now Gr’ell introduced him to his blue Finnith. Weyrlinghood passed quickly and soon he joined the skies as a full rider. During one threadfall he received his nasty scar when his green didn’t move fast enough. He also discovered that he liked men and woman in his bed through his green’s many flights. He didn’t really have many friends even as a rider. But he did develop an interest in the same man as his half-sibling. They verbally and physically fought a lot over the man but then that man left the weyr leaving both males devastated but they agreed to let it go. Ku’ja though was growing tired of High Reaches and shortly after that requested a transfer to Arolos. It was approved so they made their way to their new home. Already Ku'ja decided to get a wher egg which became a blue he called Tanaka. Information about Ku’ja's pets Pet Name: Tanaka Pet Type: Blue Wher Appearance: Tanaka is medium-size for his breed, meaning he’ll weigh around 838 lbs once full-grown. The lean muscles across him seem rather well-chiseled, albeit not that apparent since they’re hidden under some rather wrinkly hide. Those wrinkles are especially prominent around the base of his skull where they've made said area appear wider than it actually is. Some would have trouble seeing that because he’s almost one single color and wrinkles prove efficient in disappearing against that midnight blueness. Just those electric blue claws seem more prominent, breaking that almost solid color scheme. His eyes seem rather large as they’re peering outward. Personality: Whers are normally fixated onto a ‘pack mentality’ and this blue is not different. Ku'ja is boss. Even though he’ll leave almost every decision within said greenrider’s hands, he’ll desire being around his golden momma some extreme amount too. Whenever his desires turn onto being around chaseable females, he won’t want more than one green wher and would desire siring many young whers. Whers that he’ll want idolizing him as much as he idolizes his momma! No other green beyond the one he’s chosen will ever tempt him into fulfilling that purpose. Information about Ku’ja's dragon Dragon Name: Meyrinth Colour: Green Age: 17 Wing (Weyrling Group): Firedance Appearance: Meyrinth is an average green in size but her wings are bigger than the rest of her body one of the reasons she tends to be rather clumsy. She is a mixture of moss, leaf and malachite greens. It seems to be patterned randomly around her body not necessarily making her one of the more attractive greens but giving her an interesting look all the same. She is pretty though in her own way and she is a bit on the leaner side helping her be more agile and speedy. Personality: The first impression of Meyrinth is that she is very clumsy, awkward, and tends to bungle things. And it’s fairly true she does tend to be rather clumsy green accidently knocking things over or breaking things. This leads her to apologizing…a lot. She almost doesn’t seem to shut up when she apologizes and most of the time she will have to be interrupted in order for her to stop. One of the reasons hers keeps valuable items away from her so she doesn’t break anything nor does he have to listen to her apologizing if he doesn’t have to. Around a male she likes she seems to become even clumsier which will cause a lot of awkwardness especially on her part. However once in the air fighting thread it is like her personality does a complete change as she becomes very purposeful and keen and almost never misses thread that comes her way. She is a very superstitious green always has to do things properly and has an odd soft spot for scary stories. She treasures anything hers gives her and if someone tries to take it away even if it is broken she will not allow it. She sees it as her duty to please hers and to protect hers which she will loyally do to the end of her days no questions asked. Weyr of Origin: High Reaches Abilites and weaknesses: Meyrinth is a very clumsy green and tends to apologize a lot but once in air she is an efficient fighter All references to worlds and characters based on Anne McCaffrey's fiction are copyright© Anne McCaffrey 1967,2005, all rights reserved, and used by permission of the author.
