Name: Steph
Persona Name: Issachar Personality: Issachar is not bitter or angry at the fact that he never became a dragonrider, despite the fact that he stood for several turns with no luck. He has happily found his place working among those who make life for dragonriders possible. He is cheerful, and willing though sometimes people take advantage of this and give him too much to do when they should be accepting their own tasks. Issachar does not turn down anyone who needs help, and so he is frequently up trying to complete tasks that should not have been his in the first place. He has been told several times that it is not a crime to say no, but he has never taken this to heart. He is prone to bouts of depression when someone does not thank him for the work he has done to them, but he can easily be brought back to his normal, cheery self with some encouragement. Physical Description: Issachar is somewhat tall, standing at about 6'4. He can be described as neither fat nor thin, but a pleasent medium. Not particularly handsome, he probably would have been more alluring if he had dragonrider's knots resting upon his shoulder. Issachar has sandy blonde hair that never seems to sit the right way, so it seems somewhat disheveled. His dark green eyes are not particularly expressive, but they are a wonder to behold. Together they match his slightly darkened skin - overall he appears to be balanced. Issachar can usually be found wearing neutral tones, with the occasional blue or green mixed in. He prefers to wear loose fitting, sturdy clothes, though sometimes he is foolish with the choices and he is left with sweaty clothes after the day's work. He walks with a light spring in his step. Life Up To This Point: Issachar was the product of a one time fling, so he has no full blooded siblings. He has several half siblings, one of them is London. Issachar became a candidate at the age of thirteen. When he did not Impress by the time he was too old, he had already accepted it. He did not become discouraged when he found no craft he was interested in, and instead, began work in the lower caverns. He has since served in most positions a generally 'unskilled' person can - though he recently was appointed as an assistant to the Headwoman. He is intensely happy about his promotion and he takes his new found responsibility very seriously. He is slowly getting used to the amount of work he has begun to undertake, but if it keeps him happy, who's to complain?
Pets: A canine and a blue firelizard Pet 1 Description: Lady is a canine who stands around 3 feet tall at the shoulder. Her coat is light brown, and one could consider her almost 'blonde'. Her eyes are large and intelligent, shining of devotion and love for her master. One of her ears flops down while the other remains erect. She is a big ball of fluff and love but will not hesitate to protect Issachar if push comes to shove. She is slightly overweight, since she has perfected the art of begging for food from just about anyone who sits in the lower caverns for any meal. Pet 2 Description: Messanger is a newly hatched blue firelizard. He is still growing, and sleeps most of the time so he has very little personality as of yet. His owner is slowly, but surely, attempting to teach him how to deliver and recieve messages. So far, it takes a lot of coaxing and even more food treats to get him to do much of anything.
