[Character:
Name: U'ar (Formerly Umar, pronounced Whar)
Age: 34 (Late Winter)
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Occupation: Wingrider
Description:
U’ar is very much a man. He stands at 6’ 2” and weighs around 170 pounds. Though not incredibly old, past events have gently wrinkled his tanned skin. These wrinkles, though, are in no way deep and seem to add to his fatherly distinction. His eyes, set off by dark circles underneath them, are a honey brown and show a watchful kindness in most situations. It’s possible, though, to see the sadness creep back into them whenever he becomes lost in thought. It is at these times when he looks the most old. Despite the wrinkles and dark circles, his light brown hair has remained untouched by age. It’s still a nice brown, cut in a short style with bangs barely brushing his forehead. His body, framed by broad shoulders, was once hard from work. Now, however, it had softened slightly. Age and grief had lessened his work load and he found his muscles turning soft, though he is not fat. In his clothing, he dresses typically of a rider. He always looks appropriate and comfortable without ever overdressing. He doesn’t see the need for excessive finery.
Personality:
U’ar is slowly returning to his old self. Well, a modified version of it. He’s getting his energy back, despite problems sleeping, and has a smile on his face much more often. His general demeanor is happier, but it has a slightly different air about it. It’s much more fatherly. He has a protective look in his eye when Mu is around, which is most of the time, but is generally pretty wary with everyone. He’s not against fun and games, but he doesn’t want anyone to get hurt.
He, of course, is eventually shooed out of the Lower Caverns, and when that occurs, he is usually busy with other responsibilities. He is a hard worker and takes excellent care of his brown. He vowed never again to shirk his duties to the brown or his daughter after snapping out of his funk and he has kept that promise. He even does his best to focus and help as much as possible with Weyr duties and wing drills.
Recently, he found it hard to connect with his wings the few turns after Mela’s death, but that was greatly due to the large amount of moving around he did. At Southern, he was able to make a few more friendships and people were able to get to know the friendly side of him. U’ar is a nice person. He is kind and likes to meet people generally.
He’s a fairly typical brown rider in that he both takes leadership and can lead well. He usually prefers to be led as he and Odyth are both good at taking direction, but if called upon to lead, he is more than willing to do it. He has gotten a little stricter in leadership nowadays and doesn’t like for people to goof off on his watch. He wouldn’t deal out massive amounts of punishments but would pull the person aside and give a large, lengthy, fatherly speech about the consequences of actions.
History:
Umar was born in the Lower Caverns as Ista Weyr to Blue Geonith’s rider, M’tar, and Green Mayth’s rider, Ural. As a weyrbrat, he never had much contact with his parents and was unaware of any half-brothers or sisters he had. As he grew, he was put through his studies with the rest of the Weyr children and excelled in many subjects. He was a happy child and got along well with the other children. He rarely misbehaved and the women of the Lower Cavern were always delighted with him. They, however, weren’t the only ones to notice the boy. The sensitive blues and browns around were certain he’d stand for Impression.
And, thus, his education slowly drifted over to the learnings of a Candidate. He first stood at the age of 14, but failed to Impress. He walked away from the Sands feeling dejected and heartbroken. A loneliness set in that worried many of those that he had known. He soon hid his disappointment through the hard work of a Candidate. He wasn’t going to let one failure stop him from trying again. He had the chance again after he had turned 16. He awoke to the humming that morning and threw on his white robes. These robes, different from the first set, seemed to have a different aura about them after he put them on. He had a different aura it seemed. All the confidence he had as a boy of 14 was back as he walked onto the burning Sands that day.
He did not leave the Sands dejected that day. Instead, he left with a large, stumbling, shining, and beautiful (in his opinion) brown dragonet. U’ar, his new honorific, worked hard with his new partner Odyth and the two grew into quite a pair. U’ar forgot all of his past disappointments and troubles- Odyth held the present and the future for him and that was all that mattered. As U’ar grew into a handsome young man, Odyth grew into a handsome dragon, losing all awkwardness that he presented after hatching.
After reaching sexual maturity, Odyth showed off his healthy sexual prowess, participating in many flights. He caught few. As U’ar turned twenty and Odyth four, a new transfer caught both of their eyes. It was a lovely, playful green named Sireneth and her rider, Mela. It didn’t take long for the flirtatious green to rise and Odyth followed quickly after her. He fought his hardest, darting past other much more agile males and caught her. After that, U’ar and Mela were inseparable. Though many others chased Sireneth when she rose, she’d only allow Odyth to catch her. One and a half years later, Mela came shakingly, nervously up to U’ar with news.
She was pregnant. U’ar didn’t need to think long about what was to be done. It was quickly agreed that she should keep it. The baby was born, a beautiful baby girl, Mu. U’ar was instantly in love. He was constantly by Mela and Mu’s side, cooing and fawning over his two greatest loves, besides his dragon. Though Mu was raised as a weyrbrat in the Lower Caverns, U’ar went to see her as much as he could. He rejoiced when, even as a young toddler, she found a distinct interest in dragons, trying to play with the large Odyth and Sireneth. He often rejoiced to Mela that their daughter would surely Impress one day.
Though she was often excited, something was wrong. Mela slowly became weaker and weaker. Her weight dropped significantly and soon she was completely bedridden. Try as they might, the healers were not able to find a cure. They quarantined her for the last year she lived, only, hesitantly, allowing U’ar in to see her. She died in his arms shortly after Mu was five. A moment after, Sireneth betweened. U’ar and Odyth were heartbroken. They secluded themselves in their weyr for days, not seeing anyone. They hardly even ate. When they emerged, Mu was the first one U’ar saw. He hugged her tight and wouldn’t let go for several minutes. He didn’t say anything to her. In fact, he hardly said anything to anyone. He moped around for a long time, sluggish and withdrawn. Soon, Mu began to mirror her father, withdrawing herself from the rest of the children.
By the time U’ar noticed, the damage had been done. Mu remained a quiet withdrawn child. She began to smile more and become slightly friendlier. However, she never was the same happy playful child. Though he slowly returned to normal, memories still haunted him. He soon transferred to Benden Weyr, taking Mu with him. He grew more like his old self there but soon wanted a new change. He moved around as much as he could, constantly watching over his daughter. He then moved to Southern, hoping the new climate would suit him and his daughter. It was here where he decided to face his demons. His grief had finally subsided, but he vowed to keep it from resurfacing. He became very helpful at Southern and encouraged Mu to make friends. But the child seemed to have a very hard time of it. At just 12 turns, there was a clutch hardening on the Sand. Everyone asked if Mu would stand but U'ar shook his head. He didn't want to risk it. What if Mu got hurt in a Mauling? What if he lost her too? What if she Impressed and her dragon died? What if she became so hopeless she went with it? No, U'ar wouldn't allow it. He knew he'd have to let her Stand eventually if she wanted to. The girl was so quiet though, he didn't think she'd stand up to him anytime soon.
Word soon came to Southern that riders were needed to help repopulate Cerulean. U'ar agreed to transfer, knowing their Queen would be rising soon. Odyth and U'ar knew that Sireneth and Mela were their soulmates, but they had to move on. Odyth had felt the lust rise in him at the rising of the females for the last turn but had not acted out of respect. It was time though. They were ready to live a new life and love again. Mela would want it.
Fun Facts: He has a daughter named Mu (I will probably make a profile for her too.), he has trouble sleeping now because of nightmares and thinking too much, he's a little over protective
Bonded Critter(s):
Type: Dragon
Name: Odyth
Color: Brown (662222)
Age: 18
Description:
Odyth is a large, sturdy dragon, but is built proportionally. His coloring was once a deep brown, with a lovely copper or bronzey undertone. That metallicesque has now faded with age. His body is slightly scarred from flights, violent times, and Thread, but he doesn’t seem to mind it much.
Personality:
Odyth is a very typical brown. Even when he lost his beloved Sireneth, he remained calm and was the anchor for his Mine. Though the two were already close, they bonded more and became a stronger team. Though U’ar is very proud of him, Odyth is in no way proud or vain. He’s a generally friendly dragon, though slightly less so than before Sireneth betweened. Though amiable, he is not much a fan of fooling around and tends to keep a wary eye on younger dragons around him.
Fun Facts: Odyth hasn't chased a single female since Sireneth died, despite his lust. He feels like he and His are now ready though. Odyth wanted to between with Sireneth, but comforted His instead. He was also the one to help U'ar notice how severely he was affecting Mu.
