Name: Shayden
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Birthingday: 13th Month, 13th Day of
Lifestyle Choice: Both Men and Women
Rank: Candidate
Job: Journeyman Beasthealer
Appearance: Standing at 5'11" tall, Shayden is muscular and broad in the shoulder, and can usually be found in the browns and tans of a Beasthealer, with the Journeyman's Knots on his shoulder. His body feeds down from his broad shoulders into a sleek waist and long, muscular legs, and he would be considered attractive by many of both genders. His eyes are a rich, oceanic blue in tone, with flecks of golden shading, and his hair is a soft, slightly matte dark brown with golden highlights from his constant exposure to Rukbat's rays. More often than not, the scent of manure and herdbeasts cling to him, due to his job, but he doesn't seem to notice, or care.
Personality: Shayden is calm and quiet by nature, seeing no reason really to get riled up over certain things. When he DOES, it is wise to back up and stay out of it, for his temper-and his tongue-are vicious weapons, and he doesn't hesitate to strike where it hurts most. As a general rule, he avoids physical violence though, preferring instead of snipe at whoever it was that riled him. His fuse is long, but once lit, it cools slowly, and he is slow to forgive. Though he longs to be a Dragonrider, he also is intelligent enough to know that there must be a life AFTER Standing, if that is to be his fate, and will happily immerse himself in muck and hay. When it comes to significant others, he doesn't seem to notice those who hang around him as anything but friends, and has yet to find anyone who has really caught his eye in that manner.
History: Born the first of two children to Beasthandler Lyra, Shayden was the product of a night of passion that resulted in heartbreak. His father was a Greenrider, which of course, made it difficult for him to come and see his son, although he did at least TRY. Shayden never lacked for male attention though, as his mother married shortly after his birth, and four Turns later, his half-sister Fiona was born. It was a simple time in his life, raised by two Beasthandlers, taught to love and respect the beasts, while at the same time they taught him how to be a true Beasthandler. He decided at the age of 10 he wished to be a BeastHEALER instead, and they brought in a specialist for him, to teach him how to work.
At the age of 12, Shayden experienced his first shot at Standing, after his father's Green Searched him for the Weyr, and although he didn't Impress, he was so moved by the event that he begged H'ren to allow him to remain as a Candidate until he either Impressed or aged out. No one argued with him, least of all his father, and he has remained in the Weyr's Candidate Barracks the past seven Turns. Through that, he continued his training with one of the Beasthealers at the Weyr, and eventually made Journeyman rank while there. His sister was brought to the Weyr when she turned 14, and the two worked together in the Stables, until Fiona decided that she was sick of the Weyr and returned home.
Now, at 19, Shayden is immensely worried, both for his life at the Weyr, what with the attacks against the dragons, and for his family, with the rumors of cotholders disappearing. He is watching Destinith as close as any, praying to whoever might hear him that her Maiden Flight is not ended in a wreath of flames. He has even volunteered to be in one of the ranger groups who would be watching the jungles for any hint of trouble that day, both from the ground and the air. As most, he is also fascinated by the strange eggshells being found, and listens intently to the shrill calls, trying to figure out if there is some readable pattern to them.
