Name: Talrin - TAHL-rin (Goes by Talli - TAHL-lee)
Age: 17
Rank: Candidate
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Homosexual
Appearance: At first glance, one would call Talrin a female. In fact, at second, third, and fourth glance one would say Talrin was a female! The fact of the matter is, Talrin dresses as a woman. He wears skirts and dresses at all occasions he can. Of course, his rider's gear prevents him from looking too feminine. He likes to wear bright colours like pink, yellow, and purple. Talrin also wears rings, bangles, earrings, and necklaces. He loves flashy jewelry! And he dresses more fabulously than most women.
At the height of 5'8, Talrin's frame is very thin and delicate. He has fairly little muscle and even less fat. He's bony and scrawny, in a horribly unhealthy way, due to his awful eating habits. His shoulders are narrow, along with the rest of his body, and his face is also very long and thin. He has long legs and arms, and you can vaguely see the outline of his ribcage through his chest. His skin is pale, though not overly so. He's merely Caucasian, but tans nicely in the sun.
His face is graced by many girly aspects. He has high cheek bones and fairly pink lips. His wide eyes are bright green and are surrounded by thick black eyelashes. His eyebrows are thin due to meticulous plucking and he never has any stubble. It's almost as though he couldn't grow any, but the truth is that he shaves all the time; along with the rest of his body hair.
His hair is dirty blond, though it goes a bit brighter in the sunlight. It's shoulder length, layered for more volume, and is in very loose waves. Normally, it's down with his bangs over his forehead, but sometimes he'll braid it or put it in a runnertail. His hair is silky and shiny as he takes incredibly good care of his appearance. Talrin's made a point of avoiding looking manly at all costs. Luckily, his voice isn't too deep, and has that awkward speech problem wherein his S's hiss ever so slightly.
Personality: Talrin is, of course, very feminine. He has many feminine mannerisms and acts like a little girl sometimes. He likes to fuss over his appearance (given, not a solely feminine quality) and fuss over boys! He likes to chat and chat and chat about anything that interests him; boys, jewelry, clothes, etc. He could just natter on forever. Obviously, this makes him very sociable and very much the anti-shy. Talrin loves to be around crowds and crowds of people. Making friends is the best! You know a man by the company he keeps; he keeps only the nicest friends.
Talrin is very kind and gentle. He wouldn't be mean to someone unless they truly deserved it, and only talks about people behind their backs if it's especially juicy gossip. It doesn't sound very nice, but he can't help but be drawn in by drama and gossip. He would never insult a friend. His friends are perfect to him! And he is always ready to comfort and console someone in need. He's a good listener and would do all in his power to cheer someone up, if need be. Talrin dislikes seeing people sad.
He has a fairly cool temper unless you strike one of his touchy spots; sexism, his family, the way dresses, or insulting his friends. Talrin has no tolerance for someone who thinks they're the cream of the crop and act as though all other are beneath them. It's so pathetic. Talrin also dislikes when people take the dragon rank so seriously. Just because you Impressed a high-rank dragon does not give you the right to boss around every green and blue you come across and treat them like something awful you've found on your shoe.
Talrin believes that strength of body is hardly comparable to strength of heart, mind, and soul. He does his best to keep himself strong in those aspects, since he's so weak physically. Talrin never puts himself down and meditates to relax his body. Of course, if it weren't for his horrible eating habits, he wouldn't be so weak. He eats one meal a day, if that. He sometimes will go up to 3 days without eating, but that's the limit for him. That's why he's so hallow and thin. However, Talrin is always ready to jump in and fend for his friends as well as himself.
Sometimes, Talrin can really let people get to him. If someone makes the right comment, he can get ridiculously sad and lose all will to argue (which is really quite astonishing). It doesn't take much to make him feel better from this state, but it's also easy to make it worse. Say, if he misplaced his favourite earrings while he's sad, he'll cry. Silly, of course, but he just can't help it. He cries a lot! When he's sad, angry, or frustrated, he'll bawl.
Talrin is fairly intelligent, despite his family being very poor, he's managed to learn a lot. He's already prepared to berate someone with questions and reads books when he can. He really delves for information, and when he gets curious about something, there's no stopping him from discovering everything and anything about that topic. However, even though he's so intelligent, he's also very impulsive. If he gets a sudden craving or need to do something, it'll dissipate in a moment. If someone off-handedly mentions the lake in sentence, he'll just burst out "Let's go swimming!" It's hard to control this man!
Talrin is totally a hopeless romantic and is just waiting for a man to come along and claim him as their own so they can ride into the sunset together! Of course, he's not overly hopeful about that, given the oddity that he is. One can never lose complete hope! He is absolutely hopeless at flirting though and gets all flustered and shy when a guy flirts with him. He can't help but blush and can never find something witty, intelligent, or charming to say back.
History: Ever since he was very little, Talrin never felt like he had been assigned the right gender in the womb. Since the age of 3 turns, he's been putting on mommy's dresses, jewelry, and shoes. His father brushed it off as a phase and, once he got to 5 turns, just stopped his cosplaying all together.
Talrin couldn't stand being dressed in drab pants and shirts all the time. When he was 11, he cut his pants off at mid-thigh, opened up the inner-leg hemming, and resewed it to get a skirt! Of course, his father was not pleased with this at all. Despite the screams of protest from his mother, his father beat him harshly, yelling that he would never find a friend. He would never find someone who would care for him. That's when his eating habits started.
Talrin sobbed and cried and moped for days on end, his mother trying desperately to console him. She spent a few marks, away from the gaze of her husband, on a fire-lizard egg for Talrin, to cheer him up! It hatched and Talrin Impressed the Gold little fire-lizard easily, of course, being the only one there. "She's someone who will never stop loving you. Just like me." His mother had said, kissing his forehead delicately, then leaving him with his newfound friend.
Four turns later, Talrin had gained a little more confidence and decided to stand up to his father. His father had verbally abusing all this time, and occasionally hitting him. Talrin had forced Mimi (his fire-lizard) to do nothing as he was afraid of what his father would do to her. Finally, after four turns of cruelty, Talrin stood up to him. He dressed in a makeshift skirt and midriff exposing, sleeveless shirt and told his father he wasn't going to take it anymore. He was who he was, and his father should learn to accept it, or he'd leave. His father said plainly Talrin to get out of his house; he had no son.
Talrin started to cry. Those were not the expected results. His father shouted for him to stop crying and back-handed his face, sending him to the floor. Mimi, eyes swirling blood red, cried out and attacked his father. She gouged out his eyes, but unfortunately his father grabbed Mimi's poor little body and ripped her head off. In all this hectic madness, Talrin's mother grabbed the boy's hand and ran.
They kept moving without rest or food for two days before coming across Danac Hold. His mother, being held together only by sheer will to get her son to safety, collapsed into a coma out of exhaustion and is still lying motionless in the Healer's Hall. He was searched then, while taking his mother's limp body to the Hall. A dragonrider was there, getting an injury cared for, when he suddenly clapped Talrin on the back and said jovially that he would become a Candidate at Nyocia Weyr!
For two turns, he's stood at Hatchings, failing to Impress, and every other sevenday he'll go out to the Healer's Hall in Danac Hold and tell his mother about what's been going on and how he's doing. Sometimes he swears he can see her smiling, and hears her voice telling him how proud she is. It's all just his imagination, but it makes him feel happier, most of the the time.
