You could have been my guide to the other side
Out of this storm raging inside
But my hands were tied to the wall of pride
And my legs were shackled to the floor of pride[/center]Nickname: N/A

Appearance: As a troublemaker, Lawrence is one for odd fashion. While he did go to a public school for most of his life, Lawrence frequently got in trouble for his weird style of dress. His brown hair (link below) is often combed back, and sticks up in many places, giving him a stylized bed-head. He likes to dye it different colors, previous ones being blue, red, and green. At the time, it is a normal brown, since spending time on Pern meant no hair dye. Lawrence dresses in a black leather jacket and baggy chain jeans. His shoes are sports shoes suited for running. He is not your typical football jock, but he could pass off for a stereotypical emo biker. His eyes are brown, and often narrowed in disapproval.

Lawrence is one to talk back. He doesn't like to be disrepected, but he will be disrespectful himself. He doesn't like being bossed around, preferring to do things his own way, and is not one for schoolwork, since it requires him to follow orders. While he is a troublemaker, liking to disrupt class with his antics, he is a creative person, and would do well if he tried. His favorite class is art, but it's the only one (save for the creative bits of English), so he doesn't see much point in working hard in the other courses. If there was only one thing good to say about Lawrence, it would be his creativity.
Biography: Both of Lawrence's parents are teachers, working at the high school that he "should" be attenting. Lawrence was born on October 27, 1992, in New York, New York. Growing up, he had many friends, making them for all the wrong reasons, such as bullying other kids and making fun of the teacher. As he grew, this habit didn't get worse, but stayed fairly the same. Upon entering high school, Lawrence took to skipping school more and more. He usually had detention after school, having to serve hours in the art room, helping the art teacher clean up. Despite his bad attitude, Lawrence has an artistic gift, thus why he prefers to help in the art room, rather than elsewhere. He likes to draw, and art is the only class he enjoys in school (and a bit of English, but nothing else). Lawrence is a creative person, and carries around a sketchbook with him, but rarely shows others his drawings.
One day, while ditching school, Lawrence was sketching in the park. He was sitting on a bench, intently drawing the little birds that pecked at the ground in front of him. He became curious when a few birds gathered together near a bush. Interested, Lawrence inspected the bush to find a small nest under it. He picked up one of the eggs to inspect it, and to his surprise it started to hatch in his hand. He became attached to the awkwardly, out-of-place bronze creature in his hand, and immediately set it down to sketch it. The firelizard ended up chasing the birds out of the area, and turned to him for food. Lawrence fished out his turkey sandwich that he had brought along, and fed it to the flitter.
A few days later, F'lar showed up at his house, meeting his parents. Lawrence was upstairs, rocking out to heavy metal in his room at the time. His parents called Lawrence down, and demanded to see the firelizard that he had hidden from them for the past week. He named the flit "Boomerang" after the fact he had tried to get rid of it on more than one occasion, but it always came back. After a brief fight with his parents, Lawrence quickly agreed to be taken to Pern to Stand at a hatching, knowing that it would get him out of school (though not lessons!) and away from the authority that he's come to hate.
Annoyingly, Lawrence Impressed a bronze dragon with a defect, which sent him back to Earth. Knowing that he would be going back home, Lawrence protested. When he learned that he would be going to Rocky Weyr, far away from his New York home, he finally agreed to it.
Pets: Boomerang (#574a0f, #8c7b1a)
Boomerang is a typical bronze flit. He is young, so his energy level is high and he eats enough for two flits. But at the same time he is growing very much, almost splitting his hide overnight. He is a very industrious little flit, willing to do anything that is asked of him as long as it doesn't include sitting still. Also, he enjoys company, especially those of other flits. Of those other flits his favorites are little greens. He loves the drama and trivial nonsense that surrounds them.

Appearance:
A little something I like to call the "bat defect." The forelimbs for the dragon were malformed at birth, and are underdeveloped (thusly small). They are held close to the chest at all times, and hardly move save for a little twitch here and there. Instead, the dragon's wings developed in an odd way too, so that the dragon is able to semi-walk on them, much like a bat. In a sense, this dragon would be a wyvern-looking one. It would either sit on its haunches for most of the time, and shuffle forward, or in the case of walking, it could use its wings to get to further places. For the most part, it would prefer to fly, which would put less strain on it's wings (as opposed to walking on them). Something similar to this.
Elonverrilth has what has been called the "bat defect". His forelegs are small and underformed, resulting in him using his wings like a bat would; as fore limbs that he uses to walk on. Due to the lesser diet on Pern this defect would have resulted either in many times broken wings or in his death due to a badly broken wing. So Elonverrilth was sent to Earth for the better diet available to him and the better medical staff in the case that his wings did break badly. However, even though he has such a defect, Elonverrilth is very open-minded about everything. He loves to sit and listen to lectures and to add his own opinion and point of veiw to it.
