PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY:
Lilia is a very curious man. His inquisitive nature leads him to a drive to seek answers to anything that causes him pause, such as why whers and dragons are in so many different colors, why are knots a certain color...etc. He finds the thrill of the hunt of knowledge to be almost an addiction and when not busy with work as a handler, his nose is buried in scrolls or books, seeking to fill his mind with more answers and new mysteries to pursue.
He is a bit of a gremlin, in the fact he delights in playing small pranks on those around him or just messing with people in general, getting a laugh out of their reactions, no matter what they may be. The concept that they do no share his humor in the situation seems lost on him, or which is more likely the case, he does not care. People need to be less serious all the time and relax a little, as far as he sees it.
He has a very strange sense of taste and a tendency to "taste" things that are not normally consumed as food, especially if they smell nice or something that might be close to an actual food. He has made himself violently ill on more than a few occasions because of this and often has to be reminded that not everything that smells nice is food.
Despite his pranking tendencies, he does try to be easygoing and friendly, though personal boundaries sometimes elude him and he will probe away at a matter even if it causes someone else distress. Often times he has to be reminded of what others may not be comfortable with and when he is actually told, there is a chance he might pause and apologize. Socializing is often hit or miss for him. He also has a crippling fear of heights and as such, unless he absolutely has to, he will refuse to ever be on dragon back or look down over large cliff drops. If he is in such a situation, he will disconnect and root in place, much like a scared animal.
HISTORY
FAMILY:
Mother & Father (Riders ; does not remember them)
SIGNIFICANT OTHER: None ( at this time)
BIRTHPLACE: A small cothold near Igen Weyr
HISTORY:
Lilia was born to two riders during a flight tryst and given to the creche to raise. His birth parents never really became involved in his life so he found the creche workers and other children to be the closest to family he ever had. As he grew, he pondered what he wanted to do, perhaps a craft, or maybe a dragon rider? But the idea of being that high in the air petrified him for a reason he could not really fathom, he just always had a crippling fear of heights.
