Past RP Experience: Well, I used to RP two or three years ago, I can’t remember, but then my weyr died and I looked for a new one but I guess nothing caught my eye so I just stopped RP. The weyr is deleted so you won’t be able to find anything I wrote then, but I think that’s a good thing because I was a tad younger then

Character:Name: K'vin
Age: 17 (Early Spring)
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Reluctantly considers himself bisexual but has decided that he won't ever have any sexual contact with men. He's deceiving himself. He is 100% homosexual.
Occupation: Healer apprentice.
Description: K’vin is only 5’4’ and very petite. He has black curly hair, but unwilling to appear even girlier than he is, he keeps it very short. He has wide trusting brown eyes framed with long dark eyelashes, which he hates, and a small nose and mouth, that can open to reveal a blinding smile, and eternally rosy cheeks. His complexion is naturally olive. K’vin can only be described as “cute” but never “handsome” even if that is what he would prefer. He is very girly and often suffers from it.
K’vin is in a good physical condition. As an apprentice he has to run a lot of errands, but he also likes to run off lost in thought and can go quite far so this combined running helps keep him in good shape. He can run very fast and is quite agile but he isn’t very strong physically. As a result he is lean but not very muscular.
K’vin is very good with his hands, which means he as an aptitude for various crafts but he decided to hone his healer skills instead.
Personality:K’vin has a huge heart that welcomes anyone in, only K’vin doesn’t realize that as a potential problem. He really believes in the good of all mankind etc. so much it can make other people nauseous. He tries to help anyone and everyone and often tries to help when help is unwanted and never turns anyone down. K’vin really can’t read people. He never picks up on what other people are feeling and as a result can sometimes be inconsiderate of their feelings. And if sarcasm isn’t 100% clearly sarcasm he often misses out on the fact that it is sarcasm and it can often confuse him.
However people often mistake his naivety as him being stupid, but that is not the case. He is maybe stupid on some accounts concerning other people but K’vin is perceptive (he just sometimes doesn’t know what to do with things he notices) and has a very good memory, and when politeness is added to that, it made him the Hold’s Harper favorite student and subsequently well liked in the Healer Hall.
K’vin is very shy, and that combined with his small form has made him a prime candidate for bullying from an early age. K’vin would like to say that he had built up thick skin, but the truth is that K’vin is so sensitive that he feels every jibe and every shove as much as when he was six. This has ruined his self esteem and made him retreat into his shell more and more. You would think that the constant bullying would make him see that not all people are good, but he believes that the bullies have a reason and that K’vin really did something to wrong them.
Despite the hardships that K’vin has had to deal with over the years, he still keeps a positive outlook on life. When left alone by his bullies he is most of the time in a good mood, sometimes even daring to sing off-key while working.
K’vin’s a dreamer; he learned early that the best way to survive was to simply be somewhere else. Perhaps he was playing with dolphins, riding a dragon or perhaps having his first ever kiss with someone (this he had begun to dream of more and more the past few years). It didn’t matter. But K’vin didn’t only dream while doing chores or relaxing, the best way to dream in K’vin’s opinion was to dream while running. This often got him in a lot of trouble because when K’vin ran he was often so completely absorbed in his own thoughts that he didn’t notice time or scenery flying by and often went much too far from the Hold or the Hall, much to the displeasure of his elders.
After being in Cerulean for several months and impressing Asileth, K'vin has grown more confident in himself and is no longer as painfully shy as he was at first.
History: Kivin is the youngest of the four sons born to a Tanner and a Kitchenworker in Silver Cove Hold. He didn’t have a happy childhood, as his father and older brothers were abusive of him and his mother simply didn’t care. Kivin’s butch father hated that his youngest son was so weak and frequently abused him both physically and mentally, and Kivin’s brothers were happy to have someone to vent their frustrations on. Older children in the Hold saw Kivin’s vulnerability and ganged together to bully him.
But Kivin did have some friends, he had two friends, Taran and Degion who were the same age as him and they had fun together. But he lost them both in a span of months when Degion, at the young age of ten, went to the Harper Hall and Taran to the Smithcraft Hall. Kivin was devastated after losing his only friends and the future seemed grim to him. However help came from an unlikely source. ((Erm, here I'll continue with how Kivin and Toll bonded but I want to read Dragonsinger first because I'm a bit rusty on firelizard hatchings))
After his friends left, Kivin began to hang around the resident Healer who had always been kind to him. The Healer taught him many things while talking to him and soon Kivin became his helper. When Kivin was twelve he was invited to come study at the Healer Hall, his friend had sent at letter the Hall detailing Kivin’s skill and encouraging the Hall to take him on. At first Kivin’s father wasn’t pleased as he thought of Healing as a craft for women but when he realized that he could finally get rid of the most disappointing of his sons he gave his permission. Although Kivin had the potential to be a good Tanner, he never showed much interest in the craft, much to the chagrin of his father.
Kivin was of course delighted to be able to go the Healer Hall and spent the next four years there, happily taking in more and more knowledge. He made some friends, but none were as close to him as Taran and Degion had been. He was also bullied but not the extent of the bullying back home. He was almost never physically abused due to the watchful eyes of the Masters and Toll's fierce protection.
In the recent years, Kivin has become more and more confused of his sexuality. It has become widely accepted that two people of the same sex are together, but his father isn’t exactly of the same opinion. He drilled into Kivin’s head that it was wrong and men should only be with women. This made Kivin resent the fact that he didn’t only like women but also men sometimes. But Kivin is sure that he also likes women so he has decided that even though it’s sometimes nice to look at men, he will only ever be with women.
Although Kivin is very happy as a healer, he has never been able to shake off his childhood dream: to become a Dragonrider. He knows it’s silly and that he’s too weak to make dragons want to choose him but a boy can dream.
For the past few years all the talk in the Healer Hall has been about the mysterious new illness plaguing riders in the new Silver Cove Weyr. Even though he'd left Silver Cove Hold before the new Weyr came, the happenings were too uncomfortably close to his old home too ignore. He sought every day to hear news and too often there were news of more riders dying. It saddened him to think of dragons disappearing
between but he, like everyone else, could do nothing.

Description:(Colored by FireThorne)
This green dragon is a lovely, lovely thing indeed. Of average size compared to other greens, that’s where the description of ‘average’ generally ends. The Splendens Green is a long, serpentine dragon, her tail half again as long as average, and wonderfully versatile at that. Her entire body is lengthened to some degree, making her features into something elegant and refined. Her head knobs are long and arch proudly upwards over her head. Her smooth skin is a deep aqua-green color, tending more towards a forest green as it reaches her extremities.
Long of wing, she has some unusual forest green spotting on the sails that stretch taut between the flightbones. She enjoys this feature about herself, and will flash her wings whenever she wants to show off or frighten something. She'll usually hold herself proudly, especially in the face of a lovely male to show off her pristine hide.
Personality: If anything, this dragon is a little withdrawn. Not from any misconceptions of shyness though, but from a simple desire to be left alone. There are a few exceptions to this general rule. The first exception is when she Flies. This green is highly attracted to shiny, bright males over others of darker or duller hues. If the male can match or outshine her own brilliance, he’ll be that much closer to winning her. She is an especially arduous creature, instigating in her bonded a stronger connection during Flights, which will leave her bonded feeling the enamored effects longer than usual. Her bonded will likely create a genuine crush on the winner of her Flights, an effect that will fade over the course of a few days.
Another exception, and perhaps rather unfortunately for him, is the Xiphophorus Brown Calzanth. This green feels much affection for her clutchbrother, but only as such. It is unlikely that she will ever choose him in a Flight, but by the same token, she enjoys being around him, playing the ‘younger sister’ to his ‘protective big brother’ routine. The last specific exception would be her bonded. This green is protective of her bonded and loves him unequivocally. They can do no wrong, and she will often back up her rider over others, even if she knows him to be wrong.
This dragon has a special fondness for children, of almost any breed. If she were able to clutch, she would probably be one of the best mothers ever witnessed. As she will never do so, she is liable to attach herself to other younglings. She will likely act as self-appointed caregiver to new hatchlings, and guard to a gold’s clutch - unwelcome or not. She will also place life and limb at risk to protect the children of her bonded, should he ever have any, showing a devotion to them that is only surpassed by the devotion to her own bonded. These feelings can be passed easily to newly hatched fire-lizards, whers, felines, and just about any other newborn. This green’s affection tends to fade as the creature matures, but if it is connected to or cared for by her bonded, she will continue to protect and care as well.
Type: Firelizard
Name: Toll
Color: Brown
Age: 7 (Early Summer)
Description: Rather on the small side for a brown, this creature is otherwise proportional to himself in length and girth. His wiry muscles run along even, well made limbs and wings that are a bit on the thin side. He'll find himself nearly keeping up with his smaller blue cousins in agility with his lighter build, and he'll be fit competition for any Flight.
A lovely dark chocolate in color, this brown's hide has a dash of small reddish freckles over his charming, short-muzzled face and along the sides of his sleek body. A ring of the same color runs around his left eye, making it seem as if he'd wink at you given the opportunity. His headknobs are shortish, and dusted with the same redish hue, and he won't often perch in one place for too long. He's too full of activity and energy to sit still.
Personality: This brown is the social butterfly, and very smart. He loves people, firelizards, and dragons all with equal fervor. He will often flit place to place, chatting it up with anyone and everyone. His size hasn't deterred from his personality in the least. If anything, he's developed a 'little big man' syndrome. He acts big and likes to show off, especially when he's in a crowd.
To his bonded, who is his favorite person in the whole wide world, he has grown very protective. Despite being here and there and all about when Kivin's doing something that he can't participate in, if he feels the slightest tremor of pain, sorrow or anger, he will instantly be by his side, shrilly protesting and ready to fight whoever has chosen unwisely to torment
-his- chosen humanpet. To this end, be it he, she or they, this brown will likely have to be physically held back if he finds a deserving target. The one good point to this is that he is conscientious enough to not launch off right away into a physical attack. Usually, he will assess the situation first, and his unusual perceptiveness of human emotion will allow him to further decide if the mistreatment was intentional, or accidental.
