[glow=red,2,300]Bronzerider M'nolk[/glow]DayaKnight@gmail.com
Common Knowledge: Sent to Fort Weyr for special training before the Weyrs united, M'nolk is a stout traditionalist. He believes that that dragons have a hierarchy for a reason, and that Perone is messing with nature in her attempt to make all the dragons equal. While he'll voice that he thinks there will be dire consequences to Perone's meddling, he doesn't press his ideology on others but will voice his opinion with gusto if the topic presents itself. When in the same area as, he will often shift his attention between her and what he was doing previously. Its no secret that he is persuing good favor with Mhari.
Character Name: Maurnolk
Birthdate (age): 09.17 (23)
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Southern Weyr
Current Location: Last Hope Weyr
Family: Numerous siblings and half siblings. Parents and many of his siblings died in the earthquake and plague. He isn't close to his relatives, but would stop everything to aid them if they needed him.
Physical Description: M'nolk is darkly handsome, in a tortured soul kind of way. He is tall and solid, body covered in muscle from years of training. He has a set of scars he carries along his back from an accident that rendered his dragon and himself grounded at the time of Corath's last flight; the one where Perone made herself famous. He has short dark hair that has alot of body to it. His eyes are dark brown, and are often found brooding over some inner struggle he is waging in his mind. He wears black, dark browns and deep crimson reds.
Personality: He isn't the typical arrogant bronzerider. He is strong and steady, his mind constantly mulling over multiple issues. One might refer to his quiet reflexion as 'brooding'. He has a whimsical sense of humor, and even though he speaks rarely in frivoulous conversation he absorbs it all and enjoys it. It isn't to say he is antisocial. he is the type of person that, no matter how many people he is surrounded by he is always alone.
He openly disapproves of Perone taking control of the Weyr as she has. Dragons have heirarchy for a reason. Its the natural order of things, to meddle with it only brings chaos. If there is one thing that openly annoys M'nolk its chaos. He likes everything in its place. How can a clock work if its gears are all fighting over who is going to be the minute hand? He is actively seeking Mhari's favor in hopes she will see sense and have her Queen put the Weyr back in order.
History: Maurnolk grew up in the lower caverns of old Southern Weyr. And at one time he and Perone had been friends of a sort. They even Impressed at the same hatching. At 16 Maurnolk stood for the Dud Queen clutch, he impressed bronze Kharismeth and became M'nolk. But his high ranking Impression was overshadowed by a history shattering turn of events. Many of the girls that had stood for the Gold egg had Impressed chromatic dragons. One woman had even Impressed a little brown. The other Weyr's scoffed at the event. Women on blues and browns were unheard of up to this point, and they only Impressed to greens on occasion. The other weyrs insisted M'nolk and the other bronze weyrlings be sent to Fort Weyr for 'special' trainining.
A Turn afterwards the Weyrs united, all Weyrs became Southern Weyr. It had been the Weyr least effected by the plague. Southern Weyr was also selected for its abundance of natural resources...which were needed since the Holds had stopped tithing the Weyrs. M'nolk was the only bronze weyrling to return from Fort. The others had surcumbed to illness. Before long the Earthquake came, and Southern came tumbling down. M'nolk had felt honored at being able to witness the founding of 'Pioneer Weyr' as it was first refered to (named after the hold that was in the ficinity). But the nickname 'Last Hope Weyr' presented itself and stuck, much to M'nolk's dismay. It seemed like an auspicious name for a Weyr.
What if it failed...would there be no hope?
While M'nolk was planning on having his newly matured bronze chase after Corath the next time she rose, he and Kharismeth were convienently injured in an accident mere days before the historic day a blue flew a queen. An event Harpers would be spinning songs about for ages to come. The ultimate underdog story of merit triumphing over birthright. Which even M'nolk could admire at face value, but delving deeper he knows in his gut it was a terrible error that might cost Dragon kind its very existance.
Now, in Perone's new world order, he waits on the wings for his chance to turn the tides and rescue Pern from chaos.
