FULL APPEARANCE: Ro'bilar is a mutt. Which means that he is the product of many different heritages. This has given him a unique look. He is solidly built but not barrel-chested. His skin is rose beige and, thanks to being a rider, weathered from turns out in the sun. His eyes are a light hazel. When he was younger, his hair was a dark brunette, but genetics determined that he would start graying early. However, he doesn't have salt and pepper graying hair. It is more ash speckled. Regarding clothing, he dresses like the average rider and tends to stick with earthy tones. When the occasion calls for something fancier, he can be quite the snazzy dresser.
PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY: Ro'bilar is a kind and caring gentleman. His dragon will never lack affection, for if there's anything Ro'bilar is good at, it's affection. He'll find a way always to be close to those he loves, offering a shoulder when needed, a touch when it's wanted, and other forms of quiet affection. He's constantly seeking to help others, to be around them when they might need him, and otherwise be the kind of person that simply helps.
However, there's a flip side, as there often is with these things. Ro'bilar is firm about his beliefs. There's a passion for a cause, which he has in spades, and then there's verging on fanatical, which... he has strong potential for. If people won't listen or help him change things, Rob is not above playing the martyr or the villain to get attention. When he gets like this, it's almost impossible to pull him back or reason with him, as everything used will often be twisted to further his anger rather than calm it.
Should these feelings be allowed to fester, Ro'bilar's powerful sense of justice has the great potential to turn into a bitter vengeance. With the right influences in his life, this may never be the case, and it will only be a positive influence in the world. He'll stand up for the challenge, help those that need his assistance, and be a driving force for acceptance. Still, if his bitterness is allowed to darken, he'll want retribution on those who do not live up to his standards and seek to remove the source of the oppression at its heart - by whatever means possible.
Though it's a defining part of his personality, it's not the be-all and end-all of him. Catch him when he's not going to rant your ear off about some injustice. He's playful and witty. He's sarcastic, thrives on clever banter back and forth, and he's playful. Everything he says is generally only one step away from a flirt or a joke, and he will never pass up a chance for company. He'll forgive every mistake but expects people to try harder not to make it again.
HISTORY
FAMILY: Father & Mother are deceased. No known siblings. (Open to player connections for children.)
SIGNIFICANT OTHER: none currently
BIRTHPLACE: High Reaches
HISTORY: Rob is the happy consequence of his mother's green flight. They were in an interval, so she would get a chance to be a part of the babe's life. She was still pregnant when the interval war began. His birth father dies unexpectedly before he is born. Unfortunately, he would go on to lose his mother after she gave birth to him. Thankfully, many creche parents wouldn't mind taking another child under their care. Growing up in the creche is far from a horrible experience, of course. Though not blood siblings, two other kids became as close as blood to him. That was a slightly older boy named Jackard and a younger girl named Cossette. The three would grow up to be inseparable.
Being so young, there was only so much about the war that they were privy to, but Rob was already very passionate about his opinions. Once they all became old enough, they began to stand as candidates. Jackard was the first since he was the oldest, but neither he nor Rob had been lucky enough to impress before Cosette joined them. The three friends all managed to impress within the same turn, 2748. He and Jackard both impress browns, and Cosette impresses to a green. However, unlike their dragons, Mordenkainenth is mutated. Where he should have two separate head knobs, he has a long one that curves over his neck. Thus begins their adventures in weyrlinghood.
They had seven turns being riders without thread, and then in 2755, it began falling again. This, at least, put an end to the Interval Wars. Rob is surprised at how different life is with thread than during a time of war. Then, on top of that, a few mutations born are a shock. Some people, assholes in Rob's book, do not treat them fairly. A few turns after Golre declares High Reaches as the Peacekeepers. The next several turns prove far more exciting than Rob could have imagined. Their ambassador was renounced, their weyrleader killed, and then Golre declared war on Fort. During one of the attacks, J'ard is badly hurt and almost killed. Thank Faranth, he pulls through. Not long after, there is another attack. Golre is killed, and Fort takes over rebuilding High Reaches.
After Golre's death, Rob hoped it was only falling thread that they'd have to deal with. That was not going to be the case. Mutations have become a more common occurrence. While some people are completely against them, seeing them as abominations, Rob does not agree. How could he when his brown has a mutation? In his forty-four turns, Rob has seen plenty he didn't think he'd see... ever. He survived a plague that took out too many good riders and dragons. There have been kidnappings, assassinations, mystery eggs popping up in places, and things he's probably forgotten.
Things currently are less exciting than they've been in the past, but Rob is alright with that. The most interesting thing to happen to him recently is that Mord talked him into getting a pet firelizard. The egg they got hatched into a beautiful blue whom he named Thaco.
