PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY:
Kyros isn't the smartest and, in all honesty, he is kind of oblivious. He is someone who likes to play more than study and he isn't exactly fond of being still. This doesn't mean he isn't an idiot, per say. He learns more from hands on experience. An example of this is working with his hands and taking care of his dragon- while he doesn't learn well with scrolls and lectures, he does learn well when he puts stuff into practice.
However, he is a team player. He often has a wide grin on his face and is often ready to root for people, no matter who they are. He's certainly a good friend and is often incredibly optimistic. However, this upbeat attitude can be irksome to people, as Kyros is almost never upset or sad, often smiling from ear to ear. He just generally doesn't feel that way and will often have a positive outlook on life, no matter what happens.
He does not really take social cues well and, due to this, he can seem obnoxious at times. He doesn't realize that he's saying anything that is upsetting, he's just trying to make conversation, or rather, add to it. He can come off as self absorbed as well, as he likes to brag about how strong he is or about his muscles at times. He doesn't tend to notice when he does that as well.

BIRTHPLACE: Small Hold outside of Ista Hold
HISTORY:
Kyros was born in a small hold, while his cousins had been born at sea. Unlike his uncle, his parents were minercrafters, working hard to make a living for their small family of four. However, one day, his aunt tragically died and his uncle decided to create a cothold for his close family. His parents, wanting to support his uncle, chose to move into the cothold. As a result, Kyros would soon find himself living in a small family cothold with his uncles, cousins, parents and brother. He was confused as to why this happened, but his mother told him not to ask about it.
She seemed to have a sorrow filled look in her eyes every time she told him this, as if she wanted to talk about it with someone.
Life was admittedly hard in Triton's hold, though Kyros didn't seem to mind. He enjoyed playing with his cousins while his parents worked and provided their goods to the ship to be traded. He was especially fond of Ariel, often exploring with her and spending time whenever she wanted to be by his side. He was happy to be near his cousins, after all.
He truly enjoyed his life in the cothold and was happy to just take up his parents trade, training under someone. However, this was short lived. When he turned fifteen, he was traveling with his mentor to do some mining when a searchrider came across them. Kyros was searched on the spot and he was sad he didn't really get to say goodbye to his family before he was taken to Ista Weyr. He would, however, transfer to Fort Weyr so he could participate in a new dragon hatching. He was hopeful he would impress.
In fact, it seemed like his dragon was eager to meet him too. During the hatching, a blue dragon had quickly made his way to Kyros. Admittedly, Kyros was nervous at first, as Callioth seemed really dainty. However, the two grew to be a strong group, eventually becoming a dragonriding pair of the weyr.
However, he did not stay in Fort Weyr for long, deciding that Fort Weyr wasn't really the place for him. He would transfer to Ista Weyr for a couple of years after graduation, but, for some reason, it didn't feel like home. He decided that he needed a change of scenery and the two ultimately decided to transfer to Semaca Weyr when the fall of 2773.
He would not be the only cousin who would be there, though as his cousins, including Ariel, would come there. Kyros was devastated to see what had happened to her, but he was proud of her for becoming a dragonrider.
He was happy to be around his family again and he planned on working hard to be a good member of the weyr. He even befriended a wherhandler (though, said wherhandler thinks differently). He didn't even see to mind the pirates at all, welcoming them with a friendly smile on his face. He was even happy for them when they could become candidates and impress dragons and whers.
This was the weyr for all of them, after all.
