Description: Kallen stands a rough 6'6'' and is buildy wirely. He's fame holds
only about 160 lbs to it when for his hieght he should roughly weigh closer
to 200 at least. His skin is in the lighter shades of klah. Not exactly cream
colored but dark enough to liken to the drink when deluted with milk. Thick,
pale white hair hangs down to the small of his back and his eyes are a grey
misted color. A rare contrast indead to his skin coloring but as with his hieght,
holds true to most his family.
Personality: Kallen is a light hearted, mild tempered man. He has little to
say but a ready smile for anyone. He is open and frank when it comes to his
job but that comes with the passion and love his has for his work. In his off
time, he's either curled up with a good book or a good bed buddy.
Gender/sexual preference: male, homosexual
History: Kallen grew up in Telgar Hold. His mother was one of the cache care
givers. Not all parents wanted to foster but didn't always have the time to
watch kids. So that's what Kallen's mother did. He was born the oldest of a
set a triplets. The oldest in general of 7 kids. All of which came to thier
mother later in life. She was well into her 40's when she gave birth to the
triplets and in less than ten turns had four more kids.
Kallen was born early the night of 7.03, while his two birth sisters were born
on the morning of 7.04. The girls were obviously a little stunted in thier size.
Weighing only about 2 pounds each while Kallen was a healthy 6 pounds. But after
a few weeks, the girls rebounded and if you weren't family, you couldn't tell
the three apart. And they grew up that way. It rackled constantly at Kallen's
nerves as a youth to constantly be called a girl. He was also to gentile in
nature to argue otherwise. The middle of the three, Klendila, how ever wasn't.
She'd wollup any one who had the nerve to say something cross about any of the
triplets.
Life was pretty much uneventful for the three. They joined the Healer Hall together
at 12 turns. And at 14 started thier seperate ways with thier studies. Klendila
took up herbalry medicines, Lendyika took up child healing, and Kallen was accepting
into Telgar as a dragon healer apprentice. At 16 though Klendila was searched
and impressed a blue. Lendyika was later up at the Weyr on a visit just after
they all turned 18, searched and impressed. And Kallen was left out of the loop.
Eventually he was searched as well. But in every hatching, not a dragonet wondered
his way.
At the age of 20, he passed his journeyman exams and applied for a transfer.
After a few turns on his own and suddenly thrust in the vacinity of his sisters
again, he wanted a change. Granted he was thankful for his sisters. Between
the two of them, the helped him sort out his life and issues with his self image.
Many things changed in the two turns between 14 and 16 when they weren't in
the same Hall studing. Kallen shot up like a twig. He had inherited his family's
natural hieght. Making him tower over everyone. While his sisters never grew
passed 5' 02''. They were otherwise almost identical to each other, even as
adults. In Telgar Weyr, after Kl'ila impressed, there had been a number of issues
to be sorted out. Seemed not everyone grew out of the childish behaviors dispite
being raised in an more open minded social setting.
By the time that his transfer request went through, Kallen finally settled into
his own as an adult. He knew his place in the dragon infirmary. He had leveled
with his sisters 'motherly' attentions. And came to terms that the things that
used to bother him, were actually true. So they didn't hurt anymore. Didn't
matter. Made life easier not dealing with moody women. And with half a turn
left as a Candidate, Kallen made his way down to Mountain Song to help out in
the surgical department of the infirmary and take one last stab at impressing
before he was to old to be found acceptable to both dragons and weyrling training.
Kallen thought nothing of the first hatching to come
around after he moved. It was all routine now. Even if it was in a diffrent
Weyr. He'd leasure made it wasy to the hatching grounds. Standing his full hieght,
he prepaired himself to yet again walk away from the Sands alone. what he didn't
expect was half way through the hatching, a bright colored blue would walk up
to him, struting confidence and choose him as his rider.
Crafter: Yes
Craft: Dragonhealing
Craft Rank: Journeyman
Specialties: Surgical and wing repair
Name: Mendeth
Color: Blue
Description: Mendeth is basically an average blue in size. A few inches over
average on the wing span but only his rider really notices that. His coloring
is rather unique. He's a bright rich sky blue in color. About the color of the
late mid day sky when the sun is being soaked up by the foliage and not glaringly
bright. He has a light speckling of a powdered eggshell blue color across his
wing sails and belly, making those parts stand out against the slightly darker
blue of the rest of him. He also has a unique sploching of the light blue spots
across his head from his left sensory knob, acrosse that eye and wrapping around
to the right side of his mussle.
Personality: Mendeth is confident and proud, but in a humble sort of way. He
knows he's not of the metallic colors but doesn't see why he can't be as prestigeous
as them in his attitude. Knows what he wants and that the right approach to
anything will make it go his way. He only needs to convince his rider not to
be so reserved in his approach to life.
