Persona information (Updated: 11-16-10)
Name: Mikan
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Rank: Senior Journeyman GlassSmith/Junior Journeyman BeastCrafter
Birthplace: Ista Weyr (Birthdate. yyyy.mm.dd)[soon to come]
Family: Mother: Kanretia 48-Master GlassSmith
Father: Miklar 44-Master GlassSmith
Siblings: Tia'ar(Tialar)-22/M-Journeyman GlassSmith/Brownrider, K'lar(Kanlar)-21/M-Apprentice GlassSmith/Brownrider, L'ret(Laret)-19/M-Apprentice GlassSmith/Bronzerider
Significant others: Ginillina-27-Journeywoman BeastCrafter
Personality: Cheery nearly all of the time, Mikan has a happy outlook on life. Rarely can anyone stay somber and upset when he's around. Talkative to an extreme about nearly anything and especially about the ladies. And a rebel. Being the oldest of four, he was supposed to be heir to his father's work, but he had other ideas of adventure and fun. And he's extremely competitive. He likes to turn anything into a game if he's able to. Creative to an extreme, if you give him an idea, he'll find a way to make it happen... He's often found over a fire, working on glass, riding his runner, or engaged in a competition of sorts. Having been passed up at each chance Standing, he shows no sorrow or regrets, but keeps on happily, even though all three of his brothers Impressed and so it falls to him to care for their runners which he takes pride in doing so, having taken up BeastCrafting since the disaster of Tristar Weyr.
Physical description: Tall and lean and fairly muscled. Sandy brown hair, lighter toward his face falls to his shoulder blades and is kept back with a glass hairpiece save for his ever-escaping bangs that reach his cheek bones. Eyes of a darkened brown don't stand out much against darkened skin from turns in the sun and standing next to the fire. When he isn't smiling, he's got a look of determination and concentration on his face. Clothing of bright colors, he can't be missed in a crowd. His tunics are usually sleeveless and close-fitting, his pants comfortably loose, and his boots of a thin, lighter-colored leather. A delicate, but bright spiraled glass earring hangs from his left earlobe and depending on the day, depends on which of his numerous glass pendants he's wearing along with the guards he designed to protect his forearms from his work before it's cooled.
History: Born the first child to a couple of GlassSmiths, Mikan was their pride and joy and took an interest in those shinies that his parents made at a young age. When he was old enough, his mother let him try his hand at their delicate craft and he did well, then located in Igen Weyr. And when it came time to choose his craft in life, it was obvious that all he wanted to do was to make delicate things of glass and he grew to be quite good at it, able to turn his hand to anything he thought of.
He took a fancy in the ladies around 15 turns and managed his fair share of lady friends, but nothing ever came of those relationships for his younger brother usually won the ladies over in the end. But he never minded it.
At 17, he was given a young runnerbeast to care for and along with his craft, he found the time to bond with Star, as he named her, often out and about on her to gain new ideas and the occasional competition with his brothers and theirs.
At 19 turns, Mikan got a wild hair in his head and wanted to travel to learn more and so set off toward the Weyrs, concentrating on the still populated Holds about the empty places, with trade caravans for safety, sending sevenday messages home to his parents for his brothers tagged along on the journey.
At 20 turns, Mikan and his brothers showed up in Tristar Weyr and found something of an even greater interest than their crafts: the rare number of dragons. And the chance to try for one. Always wanting to try new things, Mikan set himself on an attempt at Candidacy. Even if he didn't Impress, he had his craft to fall back on and many other places to explore.
And he had been passed up, his brothers all Impressing, but he keeps on as keeper of his brothers' runners. He still gets into competitions with his brothers when they get a free mark or two, but otherwise, he has settled down since the destruction of Tristar Weyr.
In the few turns that they have been at Igen Weyr, things have not been all great and well, but Mikan makes the most of it and hopes that the dragonriders can thrive once again like in the hides of Old, happy that he has a fancy by his side and that his brother can't possibly steal her away from him...

Pet information
Name: Star
Age: 9
Type: Runnerbeast
Colour: Bay
Personality: Star is a loyal mare and young at heart, but nothing about her is old at all, not even her age. She's still fairly young and sweet tempered and will go anywhere her master points her nose at any pace he wishes, even to race which she excels at with her size.
Physical description: Star is a dark bay with a golden like glow to her sides and blood reddish tint over her flanks and shoulders. The only marks on the tall mare are on her face, a near perfect eight pointed star between her eyes and a perfect diamond snip between her nostrils. She's long and muscled, obviously worked plenty often.
