Your name: Shiftergirl
Character Number: 1
Character Name: Jamiress (Jam)
Age: 17
Birth Season: Late winter
Gender: Male
Rank: Candidate
Sexuality: Curious Bi.
Appearance: Jam is a short man about the average height of 5'7. His height doesn't give him any problems as far as what others think, though he's short for a guy, it doesn't bother him. In fact, its something that he likes most about himself, makes him feel different from others, instead of the normal giants that run around these days.
Jam has short brown hair that goes past his ear, he has light brown highlights from a natural coloring from the sun. His face has some freckles on his nose, dotting the tip. Round curious eyes and smooth lips decorate his face to give him a kind and gentle look or aura. His eyes are dark brown, so dark that when he's mad sometimes they go dark enough that he has black eyes instead of brown. On his left back shoulder he has a birthmark that looks like a strawberry. He is slightly built, not overly built, but built from constant walking and working.
Jam likes to wear clothing that gives him a built look. Sometimes he'll wear a pair of shorts when its hot with boots, or he'll wear a t-shirt with pants and boots if its mild or cold. He wears no jewelry to try and give off a male vibe.
Personality: Bold on the inside, shy on the outside. He likes to make friends, but has a hard time making them. At time he will open his mouth and talk or introduce himself, but otherwise he isn't exactly one for a conversation. If you want to talk with him though, he's all ears, though he isn't much for words, when it comes to listening, well he'll listen to anything you say and could repeat everything you said back if you asked.
If you are lucky to become a good friend of Jam's, then don't be surprised if he's the one to stand with you when trouble strikes. If Jam is every in a bind, he's open and bold, ready for anything and anyone. He won't every hit until someone else hits first. Jam's shy side seems to float away when a friend is in trouble, sticking up for them and helping them when the time needs. At times he could be called feral from the looks he has, going from kind to rough, giving off a kind of vibe that makes anyone think twice when they look at him.
History: Born to a family who lived in the Benden hold, Jam was raised with the cooks and servants of the hold. His mother was a cook who would make personal visits to the lord himself with his meals of the day, or sometimes a visit at night, claiming she was taking warm klah so he could sleep. Many moons later she grew heavy with Jam and gave birth in one of the servants rooms. Two woman and the lord holder were present during his birth, though the lord himself didn't give reason other then she was one of his friends and he wanted to make sure she was given proper care during the birthing process.
After Jam was born he was given to a milk-mother who would take care of him and all his needs. Through the first few months of his life he was cared for by all the servants, for they adored him, but later in life he was given little privileged and wound up doing many choirs for the hold. Servants and other Lords and Ladies claimed he looked just like the Lord, other said he looked nothing like him. Because there was little free time in Benden due to the over population of people, Jam had little time for playing and conversation, but he grew quick and sharp with his hearing and memory, always remembering things that would help him along the way.
After a few turns of living in the hold, he and many others heard about the possibility of the west and was greatly curious about the plans. With his memories and good hearing ability, he soon found that he could sneak aboard a ship that would be leaving one afternoon and he could possibly get away. On his trip for the ship he encountered a small nest not far from the sea, buried close enough that the tides would wipe it out when the wet season came around. Taking a chance that it was a gold clutch he gathered the eggs, though there were only five, and stuffed them in a pouch to keep them warm. Once aboard the ship Jam took a pot and filling it full of sand, buried the eggs. Three days into the trip for the west the eggs hatched, unlucky for him he could only catch two of them, two greens he later named Risk and Tangle.
Living in the new skyline weyr, Jam worked in the back with the cooks and drudges, though he was a candidate he didn't quite care weather the others thought it strange that he would work and still attend lesson. Good at what he did, some of the cooks would let him off for a day, mostly the days he had lessons and would cover for him if he was sick. His two flitts with him at all times. The news of the mist was the strangest of the new weyr's plans, though unexpected, he was somewhat scared of what this would mean for the dragon in the weyr, and for the kin as well.
Relation to Existing/Pending Character?: none
Future: Curious as he is, I would think he should be able to find himself working in the kitchen if he never impresses, but many friends and companions would be good for him.

Dragon Colour/Personality/Gender Preference: I love them all, so whatever seems best for Jam
Cannon/Uncannon: Any

Firelizards
Name:Risk
Color/Description: ( #339933 )A white green color covers her face, almost like a mask. Her body is dark sea green until you reach the ends of her tail, where it suddenly changes to a dark forest green. Her tail is much longer then normal, giving her a better grip around her bonds neck when she's on his shoulder and keeping her balanced when she's on narrow bars.
Personality: Like her name she is the reason Fire-lizards are sometimes hated, she loves to get herself into trouble, but will also take a risk that could get her in even more trouble with person then a dragon. At times she could fly close to a dragon's head, sometimes out of spite rather then play. At all times she keeps an eye on her bond and her sister, keeping them both in line and keeping them both out of trouble themselves. When Jam gets into fights Risk is there hissing and growling all the way, never leaving his side.
Name: Tangle
Color/Description: ( #33CC00 )She is a tangle of colors shaded in different greens'. Her face can be dark one minute then suddenly light the next. Her wings are always switching colors in the light and her feet are socks of colors. Her body and tail will stay a lime green, but her feet will become darker the closer to the toes you look, almost like she stepped in paint.
Personality: Much like her sister, she was named after her problems. She gets herself into tangles a lot, sometimes getting into trouble when she gets caught in clothing or other materials. She will sometimes tangle up things like boot strings or riding gear. She a sweet girl though, loves a good conversation and loves to hang around others. She's not much of a fighter, she would rather make peace then make war, but she has her bad day, grumpy she will swat at people or hiss, but never bite or claw.
