Your Info
Player ID: What's your screen name?
Character Number: Is this your third character or eightieth?
Anyone Recruit You? Someone tell you about us or did you stumble onto us on your own?
Character Info
Name: No Earth names like Jill, Frank, Tommy, Harold, etc
Honorific Preference: For males AND females if you are a Candidate. Example: Player would become P'yer. Note that honorifics are basically the stressed syllables of a person's name. Honorifics came into existence because dragons have a tendency to slur their rider's names. Something long like Femerinerear would be too hard for a dragon to say during Threadfall, etc, so the dragon would naturally slur to F'rear, as every word only has ONE stressed syllable. In some cases, the rider chooses his (or her ) own honorific to avoid confusion or to honor a long dead dragonrider. Player might choose instead to become T'mas or B'trol.
Rank: Candidate, Bronzerider, Master Harper, etc.
Age: How old are you? Be age appropriate, please. No sixteen year old Master Harpers. An apprentice is tapped at age 12, usually become a journey(wo)man around 18, and achieves (or doesn't) master at around 35 to 45. Candidates are Searched at around 12 as well, gold Candidates are preferably the older sort, though the maximum age for any Candidate is 24 Turns.
Gender: Male or female...There isn't really a third option here. XD
Sexuality: Gay, straight, bi, neutered, you name it.
Appearance:
So what's your character look like? Beautiful? Can they make babies cry? Tell us here. Minimum of six sentences here, please. We'd like a good idea of what your character looks like.
Remember, blond hair and blue eyes are extremely rare traits on Pern. No picture perfect studs here. If you are doing a face-claim, that's fine, you still have to write an appearance for him or her.
Personality:
What kind of quirks does your character have? Is he a morning person? Does she hate klah? Tell us everything about your character's normal behavior. Btw, I can identify a gold whore within the first few sentences . Minimum of six sentences here as well.
History:
Should we get the tissues ready or has your character led a happy life? Please try to describe your characters stages in life as best you can. If they're a newly Searched Candidate, what was their life before they came to the Weyr? Were they already apprenticed off? What did their parents think about it?
Already a dragonrider? How'd your character Impress? What was their Weyrling training like?
Crafter? How was their apprenticeship? How did they become a journeyman/master? Are they needed at the Weyr? Are they at the Weyr?
Minimum of ten sentences.
Pet Info
Name: What's your pets name? ...No "Spikes" or "Brunos," please
Type: Firelizard? Cat, dog?
Color: For firelizards. Remember it is the exception rather than the rule to own a firelizard. As of right now, we're only accepting blue and green firelizard friends.
Age: Remember dogs and cats generally live between 10-15 years.
Appearance:
What does your pretty pet look like? Fuzzy? Shinny? Two sentences.
Personality
Is your pet an evil smite upon all of Pern? Or is it the bestest best friend a guy could ask for? Two sentences, please.
Dragon/Wher Info
Name: Dragon names end in =th, Wher names -sk. The closer the spelling of the name compared to the wherhandlers name denotes how strong the bond between the two is. For instance, Player and Plask wouldn't be as strong a bond as Player and Playersk.
Type: Dragon or Wher
Color: Gold-Green
Age: How old is your lifemate? If your character is 15 and your dragon is 15, then he would have Impressed fresh out of the womb. Do your math.
Genealogy: Who was the father and mother of the Clutch that spawned your lifemate? If you don't know because you're applying for a transfer rider or a full rider from the Southern Weyr, feel free to make something spiffy up.
Appearance:
What does your dragon/wher look like? Similar to the other appearance sections. Four sentences.
Personality:
How does your dragon/wher normally behave. Similar to the other personality sections. Four sentences.
