Physical Description of Persona:
A'drios grew up short, stocky, and compact- always a bit shorter than his peers, but well-built nonetheless, perfect for hard work in tight spaces. He has cinnamon brown hair and eyes, a well-trimmed beard, and an oft-furrowed brow, as though pondering some schematic left on his desk. He typically keeps his hair short, but he has been known to grow it out a bit on occasion. He favors black or otherwise very dark colored clothing and while not in riding leathers is always very snazzily dressed.

Emotional Description of Persona:
A'drios grew up very quiet and reserved. He always felt there was something different about him, something else, something different that he desperately wanted, but he was never quite sure what it was- only that it was safest to keep his mouth shut and listen rather than ask too many questions. His family thought him dimwitted at first, but soon came to realize he was simply contemplative and was actually rather clever. After he was Searched and took the opportunity to go looking for that elusive something, he blossomed in the freer atmosphere of the weyr and realized the elusive something he was looking for was some combination of love of men and wanderlust- whose fulfillments are in short supply in the Holds. With the joy he found there, he became much more outgoing and adventurous and much less quiet, though he remains contemplative and clever.

History of Persona:
A'drios was born Aladrios to young parents at Garnet Valley Hold. His was a sprawling family who made their living primarily as builders. Most had formal masonry training, and many were trained technicians. Aladrios, being the quiet and reserved lad he was, began an apprenticeship with the masons among his family, but they quickly realized he was much more clever than they had assumed, and they moved him to apprentice with the family technicians instead.

Aladrios always felt different, other, and apart despite his family's extraordinary closeness. He never understood why until the Searchrider came and offered him something he never knew he desperately wanted- a way out. He did not so much want to be away from his family as he wanted to see, go, and be other places, meet other people, do other things. The world of the Hold was the same, day in and day out, but the Weyr? It was new and different.

And when he got there, he found something he had missed even more. He knew that he was not interested in women. But once the door was opened, he realized just how interested in men he was. (It was a lot.) The typical shame that accompanied men such as himself from the Holds was no match for the joy he found, and he very quickly left the guilt and shame behind.

A'drios Impressed Tembreth at River Bluff Weyr, but he soon found the wanderlust returning. He wanted to see more of the world. Every few Turns from then on, he asked for transfers to different places. Little by little, he spent time at nearly every Weyr in the South and even some in the North, before returning to Far Island Weyr, and then at last, to Dragonsfall.

Dragon's Name: Tembreth
Dragon's Age: 11
Dragon's Hatching Date: m6 d23
Dragon's Colour: Green
Next Mating Flight: m4 d11 of turn 13
Description of Dragon:
Tembreth is a mossy green with slightly darker coloration on top that fades into a lighter shade underneath. She is small, but not at all dainty- strong, agile, and swift. She is warm-hearted but loves to tease and joke. She would almost always rather spend her free time with other greens or even a gold than with males, though she does make an exception here and there. She has hardly ever been caught by a blue.
