FULL APPEARANCE:
A young man with a slim build and a soft feminine face. He looks like he hasn’t worked a day in his life, and fusses over his appearance quite often. He has blond hair that he keeps perfectly groomed at all times, which only sets him up to look ridiculous if he manages to trip over something. His clothing is often rough but comfortable, as he saves his best and finest clothing for special events. No sense in getting them dirty during Threadfall or anything.
PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY:
A good word to describe Y’uga is ‘vapid’ or ‘flamboyant’. He likes being the center of attention if only because he thinks he deserves it more than others. He pushes his accomplishments to the forefront, often happy to talk your ear off about how great he’s been or how hard he’s worked to keep the Weyr functioning. Clearly, the place would fall apart if he weren’t here, and you all should be grateful! Even so, he can be a little dim when it comes to scholarly pursuits and can be easily swayed to follow people if their argument is persuasive enough.
However, Y’uga isn’t malicious in the slightest. While he puts himself first and foremost, he also will gladly cheer on and build up others if he thinks they’re genuinely worthy of praise. It can come off as excessive and frankly a little annoying, but if he believes someone is worthy of praise, he will dump it all on them, no hesitation. He often sees a lot more than he lets on, keen eyes picking up on social cues and body language that you wouldn’t expect due to his self centered image. There will be moments of profound clarity from him, quickly followed by him patting himself and the other person involved on the back for such a wonderful heart to heart.

BIRTHPLACE: Lemos Hold
HISTORY:
Y’uga, formerly Yauga, was born to a leatherworking family who sold their many goods within a hold. They mostly did practical wares, such as gloves and shoes and such, which got them enough marks to survive and prosper. He wasn’t a spoiled child, as his parents were also practical, if not boring people. Yauga, full of ideas, started doing what he could to advertise his parents’ goods, with flamboyant language picked up from a few family friends who were also very verbose Harpers.
His was a fun childhood, and he fully expected to grow up, get a partner and maintain the business his parents had built.
And yet, he was approached by a rider and her dragon. He was stunned into silence for once, when she said he was great dragonrider material. His parents were so thrilled that their child was so special, and despite his misgivings, encouraged him to go and join Igen wyer.
It was rough transition, as he wasn’t 100% educated in the weyr lifestyle like his peers at the time. But he could do simple math, as well as read so surely that was enough? Regardless, he would do his best to impress his fellow candidates, and did what he could to stand out as a great person. However, he came off as too much at times, and found himself alone quite a bit…
While lonely and rather sad, he still wrote to his parents and talked about how he was having so much fun, how he’d visit them as soon as he and his dragon could fly and all that. But he doubted that would be for a while. Or so he thought.
His first proper hatching had been a lot… many many people around him were jostling to get in a dragon’s field of vision, leading to Yauga getting pushed over at one point. But he soon was found face to face with a pretty blue, who had shoved his way past the candidate crowd to get to him.
are you alright? I mean. I ahem. I guess you’ll do. You’ve earned a dragon’s pity, you sorry thing, you.
Yauga, now Y’uga, thought his dragon was the most beautiful creature on all of Pern.
Siarnaith's and Y’uga’s relationship started off rocky. Siarnaith was a bit harsh on his rider, and Y’uga didn’t understand why his dragon felt the need to be so brusque with everyone. It got to where older riders had to step in and talk to them both. Siarnaith wasn’t particularly sorry but he did at least hear Y’uga out on his concerns. And Y’uga would listen to his dragon’ s critique, not criticisms, on his behavior. It was a hard start, but as time went on, both learned to adapt. Y’uga grew up a bit more, and matured a bit, and Siarnaith eased up on his biting comments about his rider. Though he’d still huff and chide other riders and dragons for their foolishness.
Finally, though, they graduated. The pair had spoken on this for a while, and eventually decided High Reaches was the best place for them to go. There had been a lot of back and forth of where exactly to go, but they managed to agree that High Reaches best suited their needs.
