Character Profile
Name: A'jax (formerly Aijax)
Age: 20, born July 3, 1991
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Rank: Greenrider
Weyr: Isle
Appearance: Fairly tall and lanky, but still maintaining the grace of a dragonrider. He insists on continuing to wear Pernese garments, but he is fascinated with most shiny things. Faceted jewelry, specifically.
Picture:
Base Personality: Always friendly and caring. Tends to ask a lot of questions about...well, everything he doesn't understand.
History: Savana and A'jax of Nerat were orphaned at a young age on Pern, and it wasn't long after that before Savana started showing signs of having multiple personalities. After realizing Savana's other personality wasn't exactly loving, A'jax took it upon himself to make sure she never slipped back into that side of herself again. Savana was about eight, A'jax about ten.
Some time passed without any problems from Savana's split personality, and the two managed to find a sort of foster home to live in. However, after a rather tense argument with their foster mother, Savana's control snapped, and before A'jax could stop it, Savana's other personality reared its ugly head. By the time A'jax could leap over the table to restrain Savana, she had managed to break their foster mother's arm and give her a rather large black eye. They were, of course, promptly and forcefully removed from the house and told never to come back. Savana was twelve.
At age fourteen, Savana was taking a long walk to get away from how A'jax mother-henned her and stumbled across a fire-lizard nest. She was certain that the flits would launch themselves at her to force her to leave, but they were more focused on the eggs. After realizing they were humming, her attention was piqued, and she took a couple steps closer. The clutch was rather small, only about seven eggs, and only six were rocking. Three were greens, two were browns and the sixth rocking egg was a bronze. The greens and browns stayed away from her, but the little bronze darted over to her and attacked her pack. She could tell he was hungry, and pulled some dried meat out of the mauled satchel. She offered the meat, and the little bronze didn't hesitate before digging in. The bronze was happy, and it was feeling his content feeling when she realized that she had impressed the little bronze. She named him Seiv. By Earth time, it was mid-June of 2007.
Surviving without a home and managing to care for a fire-lizard was an impressive feat for the two. Before Seiv was a year old, A'jax was Searched, but he refused to leave Savana on her own. He threatened that he wouldn't go if Savana couldn't at least live at the Weyr. The Searchrider, and his rather large brown, had no trouble taking two scrawny kids between to Ista Weyr.
There happened to be two clutches on the Sands, only a couple days apart. Only a couple days had passed since their arrival before the first clutch started to move. The first clutch had a single queen egg, and was otherwise mostly browns and greens. One of the green dragonets stumbled over to A'jax, her eyes whirling a beautiful rainbow of colors as she told A'jax, 'Dulchanth is my name, Minesoul!' The queen egg was the last to hatch, and the little gold didn't even look at Savana before picking Hers.
Not to be outdone, the night had barely begun before the other clutch started rocking as the hatchlings within stirred. A'jax roused a sleepy Dulchanth so he could support his sister. There was another queen egg, and Savana was again stood before it. However, Savana was again neglected by the queen dragonet. The Hatching was almost over, and Savana felt disappointed at being rejected by both golden dragonets. A few eggs had yet to hatch, but she was ready to leave the Sands. However, the next egg to hatch revealed a handsome brown. The brown barely looked at the other candidates before sauntering gracelessly over to her. 'Mine!' he called to her. 'I am Kiranth, and I am hungry!' Both Impressions were March 2008.
When the two weyrlings were about to start their firestone drills, Dulchanth had a severe reaction to the firestone, even before ingesting it. Realizing it was unsafe for the green to be near firestone, let alone ingest it, they instead put A'jax and Dulchanth in the queen's wing. For some time, everything was fine, but during one Threadfall, something had A'jax rather distracted. Before he could shoot down the dreaded silver Threads, they had latched onto his beloved Dulchanth, and while she went between, it wasn't quick enough to save her badly damaged arm. Kiranth showed signs of ADD early on, but it didn't get out of hand until after Dulchanth's injury. At that point, it was decided that they should go to Earth.
