Name: R'vis
Age:21 (April 12 Turn 1143)
Gender:male
Sexual Orientation: heterosexual
Rank: Candidate
Birthplace: Lemos Hold
Family: Journeyman Healer Rasik-Father
Journeywoman Harper Vila-Mother
Journeywoman Harper Rala-sister-29
Journeywoman Weaver Viras-sister-26
Apprentice Smith Kiisa-sister-22
Signifigant others: none
Personality: Ravis keeps to himself for the most part. He’s very self conscious of his disfigured hand and fears people will think less of him if they know. He can sometimes come across as almost prissy when he refuses to do certain things. Once you get to know him though he will be your best friend. He finds it hard to make friends and has a tendency to say things before thinking. He tries to bite his tongue though so he doesn’t upset anyone.
Physical description: Ravis has black hair that he wears to his shoulders and keeps pulled back with a clip. His eyes are a sable brown, but most of the time they appear black. His skin is tanned from working outside all the time. He stands at 6’2”, but is still in the lanky teenager phase of his life. He has a disfigured left hand that he tries to keep covered with his long sleeve shirts. He wears wherhide pants and calf high boots. Most of the time he can be found in darker colored clothes.
History: Ravis was born to Harper Vila and Healer Rasik. He was the youngest and only boy of four. He was always quiet and did what his parents asked. His sisters were constantly picking on him. He enjoyed his Harper lessons with his mother, but knew it wasn’t what he wanted to do.
He would sneak away when he was young and go down to the stables by his house. He always loved helping with the runners. Master Jenrik took him under his wing and taught him how to care for the runners. When he turned 13 Master Jenrik took him on as an apprentice. He soon found himself helping to train the runners.
He had a normal life until his 15th Turn. He was working a young filly when some little kids ran in front of them and scared the runner. The runner reared up and threw Ravis. She then turned to run and crushed Ravis’ hand. The Healers tried to help, but too many little bones were broke. He would have to live with a bum hand the rest of his life.
He took another turn and tried to get on with his life.The Healers tried to help him, but he just didn't seem to want to hear anything they said. Unless they could guarantee that he would be able to use his hand again then he didn't want to be near them. He soon gave up hopes of being a beast crafter. He drew in on himself and drove his few friends away. He stowed away with a Trader caravan when they stopped in Lemos. The Traders helped him learn how to use his hand even though it didn’t function properly. They worked with him every day and soon the boy had most of the movement back in his hand, although it still looked awful from the scars and he would never be able to straighten his fingers out perfectly, but at least he could do most things now, if not perfectly at least mostly.
When he was 17 the Traders stopped at Ista Hold. Ravis heard about the dragons of Tristar and decided to see if maybe there was a place for him at the Weyr.
Ravis Impressed to blue Apalath. The boy was totally surprised but he loved the blue. He was thankful that the little blue's egg had survived the quake and the volcano.
