WING: Nocturne
APPEARANCE
EYES: brown
HAIR: Red, longish and kinda wild just like him!
HEIGHT AND BUILD: 6'2"
PLAY-BY: Patrick Colasour of Gundam (tired yet?)
FULL APPEARANCE: Cola is tall with nicely shaped shoulders. He isn't super bulky with muscle, but Colasour certainly carries plenty of it for his size. Very useful for tossing offending parties in the dungeon! Or carrying heavy things for cute girls. Especially for carrying cute girls.
His hair is rather messy. Swooping mostly to one side and often falling in his right eye. It curls around his shoulders and likes to stand up in places. He has big hands, bright eyes, and is almost always wearing a smile. Even when it appears that he is very definitely about to die.
PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY: Colasour is a bit... dumb. For him life is very simple and rather black and white. A lot of sarcasm goes right over his head. And quite a few big words too. If it isn't direct, Cola isn't likely to understand. Hints, subtle or otherwise go in one ear and out the other with a bit of tickle in between. He is sweet though, in an idiot show off sort of way. And if you count egotistical over-confidence as sweet. He isn't nasty about it, like some might be, but Cola has lots of faith in himself. He is nigh invincible! And it has to be because of his skills and not dumb luck, right? Right!
Cola really enjoys people though. People are great (or at least enjoyable people are great). But women are even better. Definitely better than just regular people. Throw in an ounce of attractiveness and Cola is sold. He must love all the women, because all women deserve to be loved. And who could possibly be better for the job that himself? No one!
HISTORY
FAMILY:Colar, Soula
SIGNIFICANT OTHER: (COLONEL! )
BIRTHPLACE: Igen
HISTORY: Colasour's life has been full of conflict. From Turn Three and onward, he has been in scrapes, scraps, battles, and other nonsense. Often losing, but always surviving. Some of these include: nearly being eaten by a tunnel snake as a toddler, various drops on his head, scuffles of varying degrees at different ages, a fall off the drum toward, a fall down the stairs, and a near drowning. It's really hard to say if he is lucky or unlucky. Perhaps a really bad combination of both. He was originally Holdbred.
His mother was a skilled fighter and guard of some repute. She tried many times for a captain of the guard position but never quite earned the title until she was nearly too old to make good use of it. His father was something of a strategist and did a lot of planning. for buildings, crop field rotations and things of that manner. Troops too if needed but it usually wasn't. Cola was Searched rather late in life. He was a guard working beneath his mother (there were whispers of nepotism). He'd somehow always managed to miss close contact with the visiting dragons. And the whers didn't seem to like him much. Maybe he was too boisterous. Or just too busy. Or loud. Something.
But one day he was picked up and shuttled off to Igen Weyr. Because why not try it? It never did happen though. Colasour did what he could to be of service to the Weyr. He did guard duty, heavy lifting work, and whatever else was needed of him. He even managed to pass all his candidate classes (barely). But eventually he aged out. Too old to be of use to baby dragons. So Cola went back to the Hold. Better to be a guard there than a failed candidate at the Weyr. And then Semaca opened, and Cola found he had another chance. Semaca offered candidates a chance to stand until they were thirty. He had two good turns left in him, so why not?! Plus, imagine the adventure! And the women!
UPDATES

- Fall, 6768: Ambraliath lands a bit too close to a tree, nicking her right wing slightly on a branch (Mild).
