Rank: Green Weyrling
Name: R'dym
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Orientation: Bisexual
Appearance:
R'dym is a tall man with brown hair and vivid hazel eyes. He has a slight aversion to shaving, and thus sports an almost constant scruff around his jaw. Simplistic tastes lead to unornamented clothing, usually in browns and greens. His best color is blue, but he does not currently own any clothing in that color. Long hours in the sun have lead to golden-tanned skin, and thick eyebrows distinguish his face clearly.
Height: 6' 4”
Weight: 184
Personality:
R'dym is a highly protective man with a need to defend those who are weaker, or less capable of defending themselves. His actions could get him into trouble one day, but so far, they have not. No, instead, the man formerly known as Reidymle had earned a reputation as a bodyguard. From the age of thirteen, he traveled with a Trader caravan, and developed the skills necessary to become a competent guard. He does not like using his skills unnecessarily, though, and thus will never compete in the Gather ring.
The Harpers are a particular favorite of his, and he knows a great many ballads. However, without much in the way of singing abilities, he doesn't flaunt his knowledge often.
Quirks: Every morning, before he does anything else, R'dym recites a short poem to Ydanith. He sends her to sleep with a lullaby.

History:
From the beginning, Reidymle was a protective kind of person. He disliked seeing any living being hurt, though his father took a different stance on that than many other fathers. His father took that protective streak, and channeled it into guard duty. As a little boy, he tagged along with the guard unit of one of the smaller Holds. They indulged him, because it was 'just so cute to see such an innocent-faced little boy playing with weapons'. Cute.
When he Turned thirteen, he became a general apprentice to the guards. His weapons training picked up the pace, and he learned things like how to shine boots, clean a barracks in twenty minutes flat, and ride a runner.
And there he stayed for seven Turns, until he was presented with a slip of hide with orders to report to the Weyr for a Hatching. He brought nothing with him except a six-month old rodent named 'Keeler' who he somehow attached. The popular story was that he'd left his rations on a wall during guard duty, and the infant kagen found them. Since R'dym doesn't even know, he accepts it as fact.
Nayarath's hatching held no dragon for him, but Jordinath's did. He Impressed green Ydanith, and now he can't remember life without her.
Name: Keeler
Color: Blue roan
Age: 1 1/2
Length: 57 cm
Personality: Every bit as protective as His, Keeler was once the only thing that made sure Reidymle ate regular meals. He takes very good care of His human, even if he doesn't reach much higher than knee-level. With the addition of Ydanith, he has two beings to protect. The long and short of it is that you should never mess with either R'dym or Ydanith, because there will be a very angry rodent coming after you.
Name: Ydanith
Color: Green
Age: Weyrling
Length: 24 metres
Personality: Ydanith is a very curious female, and slightly accident prone. Her knack for needing rescue feeds her rider's need to protect, making her the ideal dragon for paternal R'dym. Her favorite being in the Weyr, besides R'dym, is Her Keeler. The Kagen has adopted the little green just as much as he had adopted His human.
