Harry

HARRY
Image

BASICS

RETIRE INFO: Dragon - Adopt / Character - Retire
NAME: Harry
GENDER: male
PRONOUNS: he/him/his
ORIENTATION: hetero

BIRTHDATE: late summer 2744
AGE: 23 as of late summer 2767
LOCATION: Semeca Weyr
OCCUPATION: Candidate
WING: N/A

APPEARANCE
EYES: green
HAIR: black
HEIGHT AND BUILD: 5' 10", medium build
PLAY BY: Daniel Radcliffe
FULL APPEARANCE: Skinny, a bit shorter than average, with fair complexion and short black hair that always sticks up no matter what is done to it, Harry looks remarkably like his father. The exceptions are his intense green eyes hidden behind his round framed glasses, and an oddly shaped scar on his forhead. Who knows how that got there.

He usually wears a fairly ordinary tunic and trousers of various solid colors, with leg bottoms loose over low dark boots. One of his prize possessions, which he wears on special occasions, is a sweater made for him by Molly Weasley, green with a black dragon on it. He has been seen, on days where it is warm enough to walk around inside without boots, wearing mismatched socks; where he got these is also a mystery.

PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY:
Harry has a bit of a "saving people" thing. If he hears that someone he knows and cares about is in trouble, he will often go charging right in to try to help, without necessarily thinking things through first. Fortunately this has generally worked out for the best, by sheer dumb luck, and with help from his friends, who are like a second family to him. Family is very important to Harry, both (some of) his blood relations and his close friends that he considers to be like family. He will go to any lengths to protect them, and any lengths to defend them from insults. This gets him into a "punch first and deal with the consequences later" sort of situation often enough.

Harry values loyalty and courage in his friends, and he repays them in kind. He might get furious at them, with or without good cause, but he will always come around in the end.

Having grown up in an abusive household, Harry does not like to admit weakness or vulnerability; if asked if something is wrong, he has trouble admitting it even to his closest friends. He is sometimes that emotionally clueless guy who doesn't understand the feelings of others, even when they are explained to him by someone with many clues. Over time, however, he can absorb their information and work with it.

When Harry gets an idea in his head about a dangerous situation, it's hard for him to admit he might be wrong about the conclusions he draws, and even harder for him to recover if someone is hurt as a consequence.

HISTORY
TW: Death, abuse
FAMILY: mother: Lily (deceased), father: James (deceased), aunt and uncle: don't ask, godfather: Sirius
SIGNIFICANT OTHER: We-ell... he has a thing for Ginny.
BIRTHPLACE: Ista Weyr
HISTORY: Harry was born to loving parents, dragonriders both, who were murdered when he was but a babe in arms. Their murderer, a bronze rider rumoured to be the leader of a band of renegades, was seriously injured at the time and no one heard from him since. However, for Harry's safety, he was placed at a well-to-do though remote Hold with his aunt and uncle, who wanted no reminder of Harry's parents. He lived an unhappy life with them, completely isolated from all weyrfolk, learning to run fast and stay out of the way of physical blows when possible, until his 11th year, when his uncle reluctantly gave permission for him to foster at Ista Weyr. Some folks said there was blackmail involved; whatever the reason, Harry was overjoyed to be at a weyr far away from them.

Harry soon fell in with Ron, a tall gangly redhead his own age, and shortly made up for lost time in picking up knowledge of dragons and the ways of weyrfolk. Ron didn't seem to mind that Harry knew nothing about weyr life, or even his own family history. Harry soon came to think of Ron like a brother, sometimes annoying and dense, but there through thick and thin. They got into and out of various scrapes together, including one escapade with a feline deep in the weyr caves that they somehow managed to knock out, without either of them getting a single scratch.

With no siblings and little memory of his parents, Harry grew obsessed with the idea of finding the person responsible for their deaths. This meant he would have to become a dragonrider himself, he was certain. He did okay, though not great, at most lessons, excelling however at anything dragon-related. At fifteen, he and Ron stood as candidates, but neither impressed. Turns went by, and Harry continued to present himself, as did Ron, for various clutches. No luck. And he was no closer to tracking down his parents' murderer either. Despite several run-ins with members of a network he believe to be connected to the rider in question, Harry neither managed to locate the responsible party, nor was he ever permanently injured. Stalemate.

With no new leads and no hatchlings choosing him, Harry decided he could do worse than go to Semaca with Ron. Maybe his fortune would change there. Besides, if home was where the heart is, then Semaca, where Ginny was, had to be home.

CHAROTH

Image

BASICS

Name: Charoth [Shaa-roth]
Color: Blue
Hex code: #13235f

APPEARANCE
Length: 37 ft
Height: 9 ft
Wingspan: 58.5 ft

Appearance: Charoth looks as though someone has taken a dragon and dipped it into the inky darkness of the night sky. His body is a riot of deep blues and indigos. The dark colors seem to ripple and undulate across his body, as though it were fabric being shifted in a wind. Beneath the rich colors, there is a faint smattering of what appear to be stars across his entire body. These almost seem to twinkle faintly beneath the deep hues that cover his lean and muscular body.

PERSONALITY
Perhaps reflecting his interstellar coloring, Charoth is a rather quiet sort of dragon. To outsiders, he seems to be gloomy at all times, like a constant rainstorm. However, he is quite supportive, with a strong head on his shoulders and a clear vision of the world. He sees everything with a mind unclouded, and he has no grandiose ideas or master plans. He knows where he fits into the world, and that brings him eternal peace. He is a dragon who seems to just be the night sky made into a living creature, seemingly so mysterious but in the end he is just... himself. And that is fine with him.

To his rider, Charoth is quite supportive. He is not mindlessly so, readily able to call them out on what problems they manifest, but he does think kindly of them. He is rather loving, but only to them. Any family is met with initial suspicion, and his affection must be earned before he settles. This is not an impossible task, but one that will take a little time once he has met their friends and grows familiar with them. He pulls himself into the world and will pull his rider with him. He has a care for his job, and seems to have no fear, though it is simply a cautious sort of optimism that he sees in the world and where he is. He has little interest in leaving Semaca, and would rather stay at the Weyr itself instead of going exploring or on errand-running.

Voice: Charoth sounds rather soft, though his voice is deep.

Why me?: Charoth chose Harry because at the core, he feels they are seeking similar things. Though this blue might not trust his friends at first, the more time he spends with Ron and Hermoine, the more he will ease and grow to consider them his family as well.

Hedwig
Image

BASICS

NAME: Hedwig
BIRTHDATE Early fall 2767
AGE: 0 as of early fall 2767

APPEARANCE
COLOR: White
HEX CODE: #E7E2EA
FULL APPEARANCE: Hedwig is a snow white flit with dark markings on her head, her tail, and the struts of her wings. She has a squat strong frame and wings that should be short for her frame but nonetheless get the job done. She is a silent glider, able to swoop down on baby tunnelsnakes giving them no warning except the shadow suddenly interposed between them and the sun.

PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY: Hedwig is fond of Harry but will give him the cold shoulder or even peck at him if she feels he has slighted her. She will generally follow his directions however, even when she is annoyed with him. She is not antisocial around other flits but not particularly interested in them either. She is proud to deliver Harry's letters long distances, showing off her strength and endurance. Hedwig is often out and about at night, needing space in which to roam. An independent spirit, she does not need to be near Harry constantly, though she does appreciate his affection and treats.
