Name: Saekagi (S'kagi if he impressess)
Age: 17
Sex: Male
Sexual Orientation: Straight, maybe slightly bi-romantic under the right circumstances.
Craft:
Rank: Candidate
Location: High Reaches
Physical Description: Saekagi is a handsome enough young man with thick, straight black hair and thick lashes and silvery-gray eyes, not quite effeminate but pretty for a man, at least on the right side of his face. The left side, usually covered by carefully maintained bangs, is a cobweb mess of paling scars he’d as soon not discuss.

He’s of average height, with long fingered hands, lean but strong and getting stronger as he handles candidate work.
Personality: A boy who used to be much more outgoing and cheerful, Saekagi has since being scarred, strongly withdrawn into himself to punish himself for his past mistakes. A former party boy, few people would probably recognize him he’s changed so much, though others have benefited with the degree he’s thrown himself into working hard, though he seems to have little to no faith that he has a future this side of say, working in the kitchens. As long as you don’t expect him to talk about himself he’s a patient, good ear, and has been known to try and lift the spirits of others around him with small treats or otherwise trying to take some of their load off, but trying to get him to actually talk these days is… challenging to say the least, and getting him to talk about himself…

Those who succeed aren’t in for much of a treat, since he’s decided he’s a human disaster and not worth anyone’s time or effort, past his ability to produce a solid result in chores.

Positive Trait List Loyal, Patient, Hardworking, Compassionate
Negative Trait List Self-loathing, Withdrawn, Poor Communicator

History:
Raised in the Creche like a lot of Weyr brats, Saekagi had the… mixed blessing of somehow finding out that his father was (very likely) a bronze rider. While never actually acknowledged or entirely certain of his parentage, that doesn’t necessarily stop a young man looking for a reason to be particularly special from embracing even the rumor of being special, and Saekagi was not alone. A few other boys with real or imagined certainty of their own importance more or less banded together and, while they didn’t hold any -actual- rank per se, made a place for themselves, frequently enough at the expense of others, getting into things and places they shouldn’t and throwing their weight around.

[edited from here]

Cocky is all fine any good,but throwing around your weight, such as it is, among fellow candidates and boasting about a theoretically lineage means about as much as a tissue paper umbrella, and few things knock down an ego gotten a bit out of hand more than being knocked down and walked over by the dragon you were pretty sure was meant for you, particularly when it doesn't seem to even notice you happened to be there. As far as he knows, they still don't know he exists, any of them, and he kind of wishes more people didn't,

The speed at which former friends turned and laughed at his pain and scarred face, and the terror he thought he was prepared for (and wasn't, in the slightest) have shaken him -badly- and he's had to talk himself into going back on the sands at all, knowing from other hatchings that as terrifying as his experience was, it could have been considerably worse, and he could even have been killed instead of scarred for life.



Other: Anything else you want to add?

Candidate Specific Questions
Do you want them to have an official Search RP? Nah, he’s a weyrbrat even, give him more reasons to sweat. wink

Do you understand they will age every passing year regardless if you're there to RP the or not? Yes

Do you want them to have a possible Stands Impression?N/A

So, I think my issue with his history, understanding that it's a hold over from a previous Weyr, is that I don't suspect he'd be able to remain as a Candidate after his attempted assault.
