Age: 23
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Hetero
Rank: Bronzerider
Appearance: With black hair that never stays put, ever, and green eyes, T'rin is rather memorable. He has a perpetual tan that contrasts sharply with his white teeth, which he often bares in a quick flash of a grin. His jawline is sharp and his face long and narrow, with a bit of a pinched look about the eyes. His nose is long and pointed. In build he is somewhat stocky, with short arms and legs and a long torso, though the Turns since he Impressed gave him enough height that he stands at about 6'. He is neither scrawny, nor super-muscular, sitting comfortably in between the two.
Personality: T'rin was the oldest of his five foster-siblings under Brina, their distracted and self-absorbed foster-mother, so he quickly became accustomed to having responsibility. This does not mean, however, that he necessarily liked it. However, it made him fairly confident in his words, and he has adopted an air of self-assurance—indeed, nearly arrogance-- that he does not always possess.
He believes this commands respect from all, not realizing that it can make him seem conceited. Under that cover, he harbors doubts about his attractiveness, skills, and social ability, but rarely reveals them to anyone, worrying that others will judge him like his foster mother did. He firmly believes that each person deserves respect, but also that violence against anyone without very good reason invalidates that respect immediately. He has a strong sense of honor and a deep need to be liked.
History: As previously mentioned, T'rin grew up with four other foster-siblings with Brina in a middling-sized Hold. He was in charge of them mostly because Brina couldn't really care less and only did enough so that her near-neglect went unnoticed, so that she could get the respect and attention she wanted from the other holders for fostering so many children. At age 17, he was Searched, and taken to Dark Moon. Soon after, he Impressed Bronze Amparath, and began Weyrling training. Unfortunately, in the middle of it, he was called off to deal with Brina's death and managing her affairs, as the others were far too young to understand how. He managed to make it back and make up his lessons in time for Graduation, though he did ruffle a few feathers in the process.
Pets: Micra, green fire-lizard. Micra is as small as fire-lizards come, but fairly intelligent for a green. She prefers to spend most of her time exploring and visiting with other fire-lizards.
Dragon: Bronze Amparath
Dragon Appearance: Amparath is such a deep burnished shade of bronze that he would almost appear brown if it weren't for the metallic sheen to his hide. He is nearly as large as his sire, Myranenth.
Dragon Personality: A bronze's bronze, Amparath is rather vain and confident. Despite that, though, he is intelligent, and when that combines with the confidence, beware! He is known for arguing his rider into submission, especially when it comes to his mating prowess and size. Because of his personality, it is very easy to get a rise out of him, which T'rin often does with much affection.
