PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY: Finbar is not only a connoisseur of many things, but he is also a true aficionado of the finest things in life. His discerning taste extends beyond just wine; he has an acute appreciation for the elegance of magnificent horse flesh, the allure of a pretty lad or lass, and the the most prized of luxurious possessions. With an unwavering eye for beauty and sophistication, Finbar's refined palate allows him to indulge in the most refined pleasures that life has to offer.
He prioritizes immediate gratification and sensory indulgence above all else. He revels in life's sensual pleasures, often seeking out experiences that offer intense physical or emotional satisfaction. Life, to him, is a captivating tapestry woven with the threads of gratification and indulgence, a ceaseless journey of self-discovery and unadulterated pleasure.
Finbar can be quite spontaneous and impulsive. He is all about embracing a "live for the moment" mentality in his life. He naturally gravitates towards any sort of party or celebration, where he can revel in the excitement of the present time and spare no thoughts about the future.
Finbar's tendencies towards impulsiveness has led to financial recklessness, and strained relationships between friends and peers, as the needs and desires of those that aren't him just aren't as important as his own personal goals. He's not very good at long-term planning. Also, anything that doesn't have some sort of instant gratification is hard for him to focus on unless it's something he cares for. Probably the only reason he even made Journeyman was because of his love of wine and winemaking.

BIRTHPLACE: Tillek Hold
HISTORY: Finbar was the third born to Barracus and Finka, and the second son. His father was a drunk who was barely around, leaving his mother to raise their family almost entirely on her own. He wasn't much of an obedient child, much preferring to do his own thing and indulge in his own desires instead of what others wanted. He joined the winecrafters at Tillek when he was old enough as he wanted to experience making the wine his father enjoyed so.
While he wasn't the best Apprentice, he honestly enjoyed the craft. He was lucky enough to find a Master willing to take him under his wing and let him take the lead in his own training. He learned the ins and outs of wine making and found a knack in making experimental concoctions.
He made Journeyman after many turns, when he was around 23. His first assignment was a transfer to the Benden vineyards to see how the other main Crafthold did their work. He openly scorned Benden wines, favoring those from his home of Tillek. His brother, Fincus, gifted him a firelizard egg that hatched into the gold and brown beauty of a Chimera. He named her Moscato.
His term at Benden came up and he was assigned to a new Master in Semeca. He's excited to join the Weyr, as he wants to see what kind of exotic flavors he can accomplish with the local flora around the Southern area.
