Candidate Xerian

Gender:	Male
Age:	18
Current Location:	Brondir Weyr
Rank:	Candidate
Physical Description:	Standing slightly below 6’0 Xerian makes a number of people look up to see his eyes but not nearly everyone like his father. His hair is like a dark brown mop that has been curled around the edges. His eyes are a light blue color that seem to remind people of a spring pond that has the light reflecting off of it. His has a wiry build because of all the swimming and running he did around the Weyr. His body is only slightly tanned due to the fact that whenever he is not in the water he wears clothing that covers his body almost completely due to number of scars upon his chest and calves.
Personality:	Xerian is a young man that is quiet at times but likes to try and bully the bullies. He is always ready to stand up for the little guy because when he was smaller no one stood up for him. He trusts too easily but once a person shows that they are a friend he never forgets them.
History:	Xerian was born in Southern Weyr to a drudge. She believed that his father was brown rider F'lion. He never got to know if he F'lion was truly his father but people tell Xerian that he looks a lot like the late brown rider. His mother tells him that she was a willing substitute for any man or woman that lost in a dragon flight and that F'lion was a man that frequently lost… But at the age of 10 turns the young boy went out with some friends to fish in a pond a little distance away from the Weyr. Lying in the sun, Xerian began to doze away the afternoon. It was nearing sunrise when the young weyrbrat awoke with a start to the screams of the other children. He jumped out and started running toward his friends when he saw that felines were attacking the small group. One large cat dove at the young boy and dragged his claws into Xerian’s calf and then into his chest. But before a killing blow could be struck another feline stuck that one attacking Xerian presumably fighting over the boy. Xerian looked around and stumbled into the pond and passed out. He woke in the middle of the night back at the Weyr to find out that the riders had found and brought back all of the boys that were still alive. But out of 10 weyrbrats only 2 made it out alive. After that incident, Xerian walked with a limp. After two turns, Xerian was asked if he wished to continue living in the Weyr. Xerian asked why and he was told that none of the dragon’s thought he would impress. After this event all of the other children seemed to try and bully him whenever they had a chance. He continued to live like this until he was tall enough and strong enough to protect himself. After his 17th turn at the Weyr he asked to be transferred to another Weyr where he might stand as a candidate. It took the weyr a quarter of a turn but they found Brondir Weyr and with no further fuss he was transferred off to the other Weyr.
