[WHERHANDLER] Sehn and Bronze Sehnsk [Approved]

[demon_pachabel]

Name: Sehn
Age: 37
Nameday: 3539.06.06
Sex: Male
Sexual Orientation: Ain’t Nobody Got Time for That
Craft: Wherhandler/Tea Farmer
Rank: Journeyman
Location: Redoubt Hold
Physical Description: Sehn reeks of averageness - while athletic and strong from hard work, he is not particularly tall though he is on the taller side of average, nor is he particularly striking. Despite his youth his brown hair is already gaining streaks of grey and his eyes are a warm golden honey color.
Personality: Sehn does things not for the result of them or praise from others, but because he enjoys the act of doing them. His manners, his work ethic, and routine are almost a ritual in how strictly he sticks to them. But he finds pleasure and joy in perseverance, repetition, and diligence. In doing so, he can weather things not turning out exactly the way he hoped as well as find the motivation of doing work that requires a certain amount of day-to-day rinse-lather-repeat.

However, there is something cold and serious about Sehn - he abides by a certain amount of logic rather than emotion. He can be harsh and tends to not sugarcoat things either. Despite this, he is a loving person. For example, in one sweeping gesture he could tell off one of his brothers for working while sick, his other brother for supporting him in doing so, and also make sure that while the former was getting rest that food and medicine was already waiting for him. While this warmth is known, the cutting logical side of Sehn easily makes him an intimidating figure even to those who know him.

His hardworking ways and cool head leave Sehn as an incredibly competent young man who can handle any task handed to him and then some. He is an apt problem solver and can cut any difficulty down to size.

Positive Trait List Hardworking, Logical, Competent
Negative Trait List Curt, Serious, Intimidating
History: Sehn’s parents, Lumyhn and Selefor, didn’t marry for love, but rather for the convenience of it - their parents’ farms, while small, were lucrative and upon marriage the plots were combined to become something more substantial. This isn’t to say that love didn’t find a place in their marriage, especially after the birth of their first child. Lumyhn’s mother, who lived with the couple, acted as young Sehn’s caretaker while his parents were hard at work and it was at the knee of his grandmother that the cornerstone of the boy’s personality was formed. By the time he was 4, he was peeling tubers and cutting vegetables with the best of them and even before he was old enough to help in the fields he had found an appreciation for keeping the home he shared with his loved ones neat and orderly.

However, when he was 6 an accident with one of the tools left his mother gored and while she yet lived, it was believed she would never carry another child. This taught him a healthy respect for tools and added extra care to the way he and his father worked once Sehn was allowed to help tend to the plants. By the time he was 17, life had fallen into a routine. And then to the surprise of the entire family, Lumyhn became pregnant. An adult and already set to take over the farm some day, Sehn would gain two younger brothers from the admittedly rough pregnancy.

The pair were a handful, as children had a way of being, but not so much to turn down the offer of another mouth to the farm when it presented itself. Sehn was 22 when a Wher egg was brought to the farm and when it hatched, he took up the responsibility of bonding to and caring for the bronze within it. Sehnsk would act both as a protector for the farm as well as a herder of naughty children. A fourth child would join their numbers two turns later, this time a sister. Her birth was horrendously complicated, however, and stronger efforts to keep from another would follow after.

As Sehn crept into his later 20s, some talk of the young man marrying the daughter from a neighboring fam was speculated upon and while Sehn was amenable to it she would be Searched - much to the chagrin of her older parents who were already struggling to care for their lands without their only child ‘fleeing’ responsibility. With so many hands on their own farm, Sehn struck up a deal with the couple - he would tend to their fields, they would reap the profit of the young man’s work, and in exchange he would inherit it once they were gone. They agreed - and Sehn gained more work.

Thus, came the closest Sehn ever got to anything involving a dragonrider. He tends to fields and crops and reaps the rewards of his hard work as he continues his way towards what is a rather unplanned bounty.
Other: Sehn has 2 brothers (22) and 1 sister (15)

WHER
Name: Sehnsk
Age: 17
Color: Bronze
Size: 9’
Physical Description: Sehnsk is a bulky Wher - almost hilariously so - and is on the toothier side even for a Wher.
Personality: Sehnsk is good at his job - which is to be big and scary. He serves to keep unwanted guests off of the farm by stalking and growling and hissing through the night. During the day, however, he is an absolute pile of soft kitty wher who wants pets and belly rubs. Unless you are a stranger, then he is highly suspicious until Sehn makes introductions.

Approved.

My only question is while he's in Redoubt Hold/Territory, is he working on a cothold? If he's working the land primarily himself, I'd imagine it's more cothold sized than Minor Hold? Or is it just some land in some Cothold or Minor Hold? Does it have a name?

We talked this in DMs just now but for a paper trail: Whathena Cothold.
