Il'ux of Green Fansith

 

[Tsunake]

Name: Il'ux (formerly Ilongux)
Age: 24 Turns
Nameday: 3551.05.02
Sex: Male
Sexual Orientation: None of your business.
Weyr: High Reaches Weyr
Rider Rank: Wingrider
Previous Rank/Craft: Formerly heir to a holder.
Physical Description: Lean and of middling size, Il’ux is a handsome man with sharp features and tawny skin. His thick, golden hair is often drawn back, and he prefers to keep himself dressed elegantly, but not ostentatiously. Despite the warm color of his hazel eyes, his gaze is often cold, and he has a bad habit of looking down his nose at people. Though he was initially of a more slender build, a few Turns worth of hard work has gained him a good amount of muscle, and he’s no longer the soft, pampered person he once was.

Personality: Il’ux is a stubborn sort of man who believes that those in positions of power should do everything they can to make life better for those beneath them. He will boldly take things into his own hands and fix them--regardless of whether or not he’ll get in trouble for it. Unfortunately, having grown up in said position of power, Il’ux thinks of the greater good as a whole and tends to forget about the individuals. He comes off as cold, brusque, and impatient, and he’s grown so used to being rely on himself and himself alone that he tends to brush off attempts at idle conversation and attempts at friendship without even thinking twice.

That isn’t to say that he’s a man without empathy. Those who are bullied or pushed around will find an immediate, icy defender in Il’ux. He’ll stand up to the biggest foe without any thoughts of consequence… which means he’s going to land himself into hot water, sooner or later. This is especially true when paired with the fact that Il’ux is extremely judgemental, and will often judge someone before getting to see their true colors. As harsh as he can be, he isn’t an unfair person. If proven wrong (though that may be a task in and of itself), he won’t hesitate to apologize.

Il’ux is a decisive individual, but in the same vein, he can be reckless. He won’t agonize over a decision, but he also tends to leap in without considering all the facts. His gut feeling is most important, and though his intentions are honest… well, that doesn’t mean he’s always right. If one of his reckless decisions ended up hurting someone, he would be secretly devastated while trying to show a stone cold face. He would undoubtedly attempt to make amends to that person somehow, feeling as though it was his duty to right his wrongs.

Positive Trait List Valiant, Decisive, Protective
Negative Trait List Cold, Judgmental, Reckless
History: The only child of a prosperous Holder of Nabol, Ilongux was raised with the intention of taking over his father’s position one day. He was educated and firmly instructed in what was expected of him in the future, and the shady things that happened day in and day out were dismissed as normal. It wasn’t until Ilongux was much older that he really understood the corruption that seeped throughout the entire Hold. His father was a staunch supporter of Lord Gansley, and (unknown to Ilongux) what Gansley said, went. Ilongux privately vowed to make changes once he was in charge, but had enough sense to hold his tongue.

Of course, that was all before Thread returned.

Ilongux had never been in a time of such destruction and despair. He was horrified--especially when it seemed as though his father was allocating aid to the richer folks of the Hold and not the less fortunate. He argued with his father and was, expectedly, silenced. Such a thing was new for Ilongux, and he found himself bristling with anger and outrage. For all his supposedly privilege, he was helpless.

After several weeks, dragonriders came flying to evaluate the damage, and that was likely the only reason that Ilongux was able to escape. The dragon who landed in question found that Ilongux was eligible to stand, and his father, though he tried, was unable to forbid him. The man threatened to disown him if he continued with such a foolish endeavor, and the young man could only sneer before he mounted behind the dragonrider and allowed himself to be carried off to High Reaches.

Adjusting to life as a Candidate was harsh, but Ilongux stubbornly stuck with it. Better to be a dragonrider and help people than a fat old Holder who chose who received aid or not. He didn’t Impress during his first or second Turn… but then, the unexpected happened during Fianth and Rhianth’s double clutch. An egg wobbled, shivered… and finally split, allowing a green to delicately shiver to spill the remaining eggshell off of her hide. She searched for a moment, seemingly composed, but eventually yellow bled into her eyes and betrayed her anxiety.

Ilongux? She finally called, standing uncertainly. Your Fansith is sorry to be a bother… but I need you, and only you.

So began Il’ux’s life as a dragonrider, and though some may have sneered that her hide was green, Il’ux knew that there was no one more suited for him than his Fansith.

Name: Fansith
Age: 1 Turn (GASP)
Color: Green
Size: 24'
Physical Description: An average sized green, Fansith possesses quite the long neck and tail, though her limbs are rather short. She looks awkward on the ground as a result, but in the air, she cuts a sinuous and elegant figure. She excels at both speed and stamina (for a green).

Personality: Fansith, at first glance, appears to be just your ordinary green! ...At least, so she’s trying very, very hard to be. She is a quiet, dignified dragon, soft spoken and and trying her darndest to emulate some of her green sisters and cousins. She struggles, internally, because she really isn’t the good, perfect green she should be. She isn’t a particularly sweet or earnest girl, and she is (secretly) an immensely talented dragon. Fansith struggles, knowing her talents will never be stretched while simultaneously attempting to smother those thoughts so that she can fit in. As much as she knows she could be extraordinary, there’s no place at High Reaches for it…and the thought that her family might be shamed due to her actions is an agonizing one.

As brave as her mother is for openly accepting a blue as her lover and father for her clutches (Fansith isn’t counting biology here), she’s still forced to mate with ‘acceptable’ colors. If a green were to try and make themselves heard in High Reaches, she has no doubt the blame would fall squarely on her mother and her ‘strange’ fancies. Fansith does her best to keep her head down and work as hard as she can, often pushing herself beyond her limit in an attempt to prove what she’s worth.

She often despairs that something is wrong with her. Her most of her other family members seem ready to accept the status quo. Why can’t she? She isn’t asking for anything radical… She just believes that chromatics should have a voice in things. A bronze dragon will never understand what a green must do, and vice versa. If shining would put her family at risk… sometimes she thinks it’d be best to fade into obscurity.
