Name: Jerston
Age: 14
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Hetero
Rank: Candidate
Appearence:
Jerston stands to a height of 5'3 when he straightens completely.His eyes are a medium brown that compliments his blond hair. His hair is kept short.
Since losing his foot he has to use a crutch to walk and he is slightly unbalanced. Over the years he's managed to gain confidence and skill in his use with the crutch, but that doesn't prevent the occasional accident. He has several scars on his hands and arms from catching himself against walls and such things when he fell.
Personality:
Jerston is pretty out going. He's determined to be useful regardless of the loss of his foot. While most people consider his handicap a weakness, he consider's it a strength. He works harder than any normal person to make up for the lack of confidence people have in him. In fact, he goes above and beyond that assigned to him. Give him kitchen chores and he will finish those and then go to work a shift in the infirmary and then find a drudge to spend the remainder of the day helping take their load of the work. All the while he works he hopes to prove to all those that whisper behind his back or openly give him the scornful looks that he is not handicapped at all. He is not just some cripple that will never be more than a healer's journeyman. He can be more, but he isn't just proving it to them, he is proving it to himself as well.
History: Jerston was raised by his father, a blue rider. His mother didn't want to bear him, but his father, while not telling her she couldn't abort, made it clear that he wished she wouldn't. From the time Jerston was four His father took him on searches.
As they came out of between on the way to a hold one day, after Jerston turned seven, another dragon crashed right into them. The other dragon was not fazed, but Jerith, his father's blue, fell from the sky. He rolled accidently onto his rider and crushed him. Jerston's father died. Jerston's foot had been caught under the dragon and crushed as well. When Jerston freed his foot he started limping away from the scene, going for help.
It was then that the Blue rose and and passed between as Jerston looked back and sadness filled his heart. Then he saw the feline. It jumped toward him as he started to run, regardless of his injured foot. He tripped over something and thought he was dead for sure. When he saw what he had tripped over his eyes grew wide. It was a flit clutch. When he'd landed he caused one egg to hatch and an electric blue flit was born.
Jerston reached into the pouch at his side, filled the meat rolls that were meant as his lunch. He'd forgotten the feline and was never quite sure what had happened to it. He fed the meatroll to the blue as impression was made, naming him Spark. Then he passed out. When he awoke his foot had been amputated. A small canine laid curled at the foot of his bed and he'd been informed that it had not left his bed since he'd arrived. The healer who found him raised him as his own son and taught him. A turn later he was taken to Healer Hall as an apprentice.
Just as he reached his Journeyman status, the day after he walked the tables in fact, he was searched by, oddly enough, a blue dragon.
Pets:
Name: Spark
Animal/Color: Blue Firelizard
Appearance: Spark is an electric blue in color, with varying shades of lighter blue throughout his hide. His wing sails are slightly darker than the rest of his body.
Personality: Spark is well trained and intelligent for a firelizard. He knows just how to land to keep from throwing Jerston off balance. He follows commands without a second thought, as long as they are from his bonded or confirmed by his bonded. The downfall; he doesn't like to leave his Jerston's side for longer than absolutely necessary so he wouldn't make a good messenger outside of the Weyr, really.
Name:Shara
Animal/Color: Golden Canine
Appearance: Shara is light golden color, almost more blond really, with bits of white breaking in here and there on her muzzle, stomach and tail. The as copperish-red sheen to her coat. (think almost golden-retriever, for terrain point of reference.)
Personality: Shara is Jerston's constant companion unless ordered otherwise, and even then it's with reluctance. As a pup she claimed him as hers and refused to be taken from his side. She acts as his balance when he stumbles, moving in to pull him back to center if she can or cushion his fall if she can't. She is also very protective. If he is in a position where he can't defend himself, Shara will be sure no one can get close enough to touch him. No one. However, if he's fine, then she's perfectly friendly and approachable. Feel free to pet, play and otherwise adore. She is quite the attention whore.
Candidates only:
Colour Prefrence/why? IC: Jerston would love nothing more than Impressing a blue like his father's Jerith. OOC: I think Amber and Brown are the closest fit to his personality.
What colour you don't want/why? I nor he would object to any color.
