Harper, tell me of the road...
Username: AgriasNesme
Character Number: 3rd
Name: Zagok
Age: 17
Birth Season: Autumn
Gender: Male
Location: Delant Hold
Rank: Hunter
Candidate for: Dragon
That leads beyond this hold...
Appearance: Zagok stands just on the average side of "average" at five feet and ten inches tall. His long brown hair hangs to his shoulders, framing his face and shadowing his green eyes well. While he shaves often enough never to have a proper beard, he often has a five o'clock shadow clinging to his cheeks. His frame is stout for his height, and he is broad in the chest and shoulders. He doesn't have the build of a warrior, but he is healthy and strong. He wears the clothing of the average holder for the season; long trousers and a short-sleeved tunic, both in the earthen colours common to his station. He does have one vanity in a pair of tanned leather boots that reach up to his thighs, colored a dark black.
That wends its way around the hill...
Personality: Zagok is a holder, and as such has developed surrounded by friends and family. He is content with his life, and seeks no furtherance of his status, as he would not know what to do with it, anyway. When he can, he gives of himself so that those around him know how much he appreciates them, and he has acted often as a voice of reason and a source of comfort. He does not look at the hunts he has to join to feed the Hold from time to time as a chore, but as a source of fun and gambling. He is chipper, but not overly so, and does his damndest to avoid being morbid whenever possible.
He is not bitter, nor vain, but he does take care of his appearance. He cares little for material possessions, save his precious boots, and has an average temper. He does get angry, but almost never over foolish foibles. He often wears a satisfied smirk, and does love women as much as the next male, but he respects them and their boundaries. On the whole, he is calm, collected, and above all, content.
Does it go farther on until...
History: Zagok was born in the beginning of the autumn season eighteen and a half turns ago at . His birth was met with little fanfare, as his mother survived and he was cared for soundly. As he grew, he established a love of the hold canines, and spent much time learning how to care for them. As time went by, and he grew older, he made friends with the canines and with their owners, establishing himself as a friendly figure, and one to trust, by all around him. He attended lessons with the Hold Harper, but did not show aptitude for the craft. When he was six turns old, the founding of Delant had been established, and his father and mother decided to try their hand at lives on Lyeunia Island.
After the move, it became necessary to hunt more often, as the Hold could not survive without regular resupply from the continent alone, not without souring the taste of the island quickly on the tongues of the Lord Holders in any case. His father became a hunter for the Hold, and Zagok went about his lessons with no more enthusiasm than any of the other Holders. His mother's work as a drudge and his father's hunting eventually instilled the values of hard work in the boy as he assisted them and saw how happy they were with a hard day's work. He soon began to practice his father's job. Eventually, he joined the hunts himself, and became quite proficient in the use of the bola used to bring down frightened wherries. After one particularly distinguishing hunt, he was gifted with a young canine pup to raise and care for as his own partner. Not much has changed of his situation since, though he has made enough of himself that he has his own small room in the hold. He does not frequently leave the confines of the Hold on a whim, usually only on a hunt, or when his mother sends him to a Gather or the market. He is not overly fond of either. He was recently gifted with a small firelizard egg by his parents, and he has not been Searched.
It ends in sunset gold?
Pets:
Pet Name: The egg has not been named.
Pet Appearance: It is currently small and egg-shaped. It is hardening in a pot of sand. It is located in the confines of Zagok's quarters in the hold.
Pet Personality: The egg has not yet hatched, and may not hatch. As such, it has yet to develop a personality. Zagok does fantasize that it will be just like his mother, and nag him to find a mate.
Pet Name: Maven
Pet Appearance: Maven is a large canine, coming up to her master's thigh, and her fur is thick and lustrous. Her heterochromic eyes move quickly and ceaselessly, taking everything around her in. Her coat is a dark black, with a splash of white across her underbelly. Her muzzle is long and of a medium thickness, while her ears come to a sharp point atop her head. Her tail curls upwards back towards her body. She is muscular and well-built.
Pet Personality: Maven is chipper and bright where her master is stoic. She lives for company, especially the company of her master. She is protective of him, and does distrust strangers, but she does not bite unless commanded. She is a fierce hunter, never letting prey get away from her unless she is called back. She is fiercely loyal, and never shy; she is never very far from her master when she doesn't have to be.
Are there any colours you will not accept? No.
Are there any colours you would prefer? Why? I'd honestly like a mutation, in any flavour, but I won't be picky. I'd like to try to explore the relationship between an off-canon dragon and his or her rider, and their relationship with the 'normal' dragons and their riders. As I said, though, not picky.
Canon-only? Shards no!
Queen-only? Considering he is male, I'd have to say 'no'.
