Character:
Name: V’mio
Age: 42
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Occupation: Candidatemaster
Description: Tall, dark and handsome, V’mio is most people’s idea of what a dragonrider should look like. He has kept himself in shape and can often be found doing exercises in the Bowl. He wears his black hair short and spiky and is very self conscious about the thinning patch at the crown of his head. His skin is deeply tanned and he has a few scars on his face and hands from the healers removing suspicious spots. His eyes are dark brown with prominent crow’s feet in the corners.
V’mio is the Pernese version of a metrosexual. He likes nice clothes and keeps himself immaculately groomed. He secretly dyes his hair and in his free time he creates skin and hair products. Mostly they are for his own use but he does give away or trade them to others.
Personality: V’mio is a very sensitive guy. He doesn’t believe in bottling up emotions, and he’s not afraid to be seen crying in public. V’mio tries to look for the best in everyone and he usually finds it. He believes that everyone has some redeeming quality.
He cares deeply about his candidates’ mental and emotional state. He tries to get to know them and their backgrounds so he can tailor his leadership style to each individual candidate. He tries to get them to talk about their feelings as the root cause of their behavior. He loves to give advice, even when it’s not asked for. He prefers candidates to understand what their duties are, or why they're being punished, rather than to lay out rules and give punishments. However, V’mio does not allow himself to be taken advantage of, and when pushed far enough his anger is ferocious. He takes his duties with the candidates very seriously and will not hesitate to pull someone from the Sands.
History: Velmio grew up as just another crèche brat at Southern Weyr. At eleven, the Weyrharper noticed his exceptional tenor voice and sent him to the Harper Hall. Velmio loved singing and settled easily into life at the Hall. He saw himself singing his way across Pern and hopefully becoming a master one day. When his voice broke, he waited at the Hall, learning to play several instruments, but never good enough on one to justify staying. Rather than be a second-rate journeyman or senior apprentice his whole life, Velmio went back to Southern Weyr to be a candidate.
At the Weyr, he seemed to become everyone’s confidant. He helped newly Searched candidates adjust to Weyrlife and combat their homesickness. Everyone from the Candidatemaster to his own foster mother thought Velmio would Impress a green, or maybe a blue. He surprised everyone including himself by Impressing bronze Felath after being a candidate for three Turns. The pair had a hard time during training. V’mio worked as hard as he could but the Weyrlingmaster had a harsh demeanor that V’mio couldn’t relate to. They did eventually graduate, although not in the top of the class.
Once out of training, the pair flourished. V’mio earned a reputation for being able to work with the prickliest riders, and quickly moved up the ranks to a wingsecond position. He was on the verge of being promoted to a wingleader when they had an accident during Threadfall. A weyrling ferrying firestone panicked and flamed Felath across his right wing. The dragonhealers managed to save the wing, but the bronze faced a long recovery time. V’mio, uninjured himself, had a very hard time during Felath’s convalescence. For several months he was depressed and irritable, drinking heavily and blaming the weyrling for the accident. V’mio’s recovery was almost longer than Felath’s but with help from his bronze and a persistent dragonhealer, he slowly returned to his usual self.
While Felath was recovering, V’mio began working with the Southern Weyr candidatemaster. Having been weyrbred but Harper trained, he was able to help candidates make the transition to weyrlife. After being passed over for promotion twice (once entirely unfairly, in his opinion) V’mio began asking around at other Weyrs that needed Candidatemasters. When he heard about the troubles in Silver Cove and the move to Cerulean, he immediately offered his help.
Fun Facts: He hates firelizards, something he makes abundantly clear whenever the things are around.
Bonded Critter(s):
Type: Dragon
Name: Felath
Color: Bronze
Age: 25
Description: Felath is a dark, dirty looking bronze. If not for his size he might be mistaken for a brown in low light. He is nicely proportioned, although he has a bit of a wherry neck. Like most bronzes he lacks agility, and although his endurance is still tremendous, Felath has never been able to return to his pre-accident flying level. His right wing is heavily scarred with mottled lighter patches. It gets stiff and sore, and the dragonhealers have given V’mio a whole range of stretching exercises to do before strenuous flying.
Personality: Felath is quiet and calm, rarely getting excited over things. He has the same fierce devotion to the candidates as V’mio, even speaking to them on occasion. He enjoys the company of other dragons and likes to keep the watchdragons company. Despite chasing every gold that rises, he really loves the quick thrill of a greenflight and chases as often as he can.
Fun Facts: Felath has excellent control of his flame, being able to hit targets thrown in the air.
