Candidate Racillon

Player: T'star

Persona's Name: Racillon
Age: 21
Rank: Guard

Physical Description: Of an average height, standing about 6’2” tall, his body is comfortable with itself, that is proportioned so he does not seem overly large just /right/ for his frame. His a trifle on the lean side, though that seems more from activity than raw build. His face is built on strong planes, his jaw line distinctive, yet fluid. Everything about him is fluid. His body and his expressions, yet his face seems to be little more than a mask. It’d difficult to read beyond just the surface… the dark brown, nearly black, hair, and the cold, impassive, ferocious black eyes.

Personality: Racillon is dangerous. He believes himself absolutely superior to any other human being on the planet. He expects himself to live up to those expectations. He will. Be. The. Best. Period. No exceptions. He is ambitious, aggressively so, yet he is capable of great subtleties. Rarely is he loyal to anything other than himself, though he does respect law… that doesn’t mean he will not exploit loopholes where they exist. He has all the marks of a tyrant in the making though his most efficient state is someone else’s second in command. He is subtly aggressive. I /likes/ to keep people guessing. The less they know the better he likes it. He has a disregard for the female of the species. It is not an active hatred just an assumption. They are not such great competition as the male... though they are dangerous in other ways. (Everyone is dangerous, believe otherwise and you’re deluding yourself.) He simply disdains them. No he saves his stronger emotions for Dragon riders. He despises them, categorically, however he has observed and come to believe (equally as much as he despises them) that they are in the most advantageous position on Pern. When asked to stand he jumped at the opportunity, willing to become what he despised to put himself in the position he craves and prove his own superiority. He is not a nice man.

Gender and sexual preference: Male, Heterosexual.

Persona's History:
Born to a guard and a drudge by the name of Yelena, Racillon is the eldest of two known children of his father the other, a girl named Belle, was a good 11 years younger than Racillon. His father was never one to doat over his children though he also refused, perversely to foster them out to someone who actually cared more about them. In his mind the drudges that mothered them (yes different ones) were utterly unfit to the task and he refused to admit that he might be as much so, if not more so himself.

Racillon he raised to be a little copy of himself, though Rac had his own ideas. Rac had always been a hard worker, unlike his father who had never gotten above Corpral due to his lack of work ethic. Rac had a reason to work hard even as a child. He wanted to be the best… he had certain expectations of himself that he /had/ to live up to. Which created for an odd dichotomy as a child. Convinced of his own superiority he could be quite arrogant, yet each failure to live up to his own impossible standards simply drove him harder. He was harder on himself than anyone.

Growing up he bore little loyalty to his father, though he did follow in his footsteps to the guard, he saw it as a way to get close to the Lord and Lady of Telgar, where he grew up. If he could not have direct power due to lack of blood, he could, perhaps manage /indirect/ power. It was in this position and from this outlook that his dislike of dragonriders stemmed. He had broken up enough fights in which dragon riders were involved and in general found them lazy, arrogant, and usually, individually worthless. Not a complimentary perspective but his own view was less than clear, as he tended to run into the worst examples. However, he /did/ see in dragonriding a way for non-blooded individuals to attain a state equal to a Lord Holder or perhaps even higher, because no one wished to anger the Weyrs! Especially during a pass. This is why one day, when a blue watch dragon from Telgar searched him he jumped at the chance. Telgar had a surfeit of candidates so he was transferred south to Mountain Song.
