physical description: If Edilon were to stand next to his father M'lym, most people wouldn't guess that they were related. Rather than being tall and broad, he is shorter than average and slender; and his features are considerably more delicate than his father's. He definitely takes after his mother there. However, a closer look reveals the similarities between them. Edilon has the same aquiline nose as his father, and the same dark brown eyes. He also got his father's black hair instead of his mother's blonde. He wears it long, down to his shoulders, in a choppy cut. He has a flair for style and a weakness for visiting the Weyr weaver for new clothes. Edilon always wears a pendant of a bird in flight on a leather cord around his neck, a gift from his mother.
personality: The boy's a tender-hearted fool, that's what M'lym always says. He's just a sensitive lad, Lonna argues. He is reserved, quiet, and polite, following the rules and rarely getting into a tiff with anyone. He is shy at first meeting, but once he becomes comfortable around a person he can be rather talkative. He is always curious, and has a thirst for knowledge that sometimes borders on nosiness--good thing he's usually too polite to poke around where he isn't wanted. That isn't to say that Edilon is a dull, complacent person, because he can get very passionate about the things he cares about. Anyone who's witnessed one of his fights with M'lym can attest to that. He is a a perfectionist, and can be hard on himself when he thinks he has failed at something. When he sets his mind to something, he becomes completely focused on it.
Edilon is not antisocial, but he enjoys his solitude. He needs some time every day to collect his thoughts and be alone. During that time he usually draws and paints. He has a talent for art and he plans to pursue that more if he doesn't Impress. Not Impressing is something he gets anxious about a lot, and he wonders why he has been left standing for two turns so far.
history: Sixteen turns ago, a woman named Lonna was attending a Turn's End party in the lower caverns of Nova Weyr with her on-again, off-again bronzerider lover M'lym. She was extremely pregnant. In the middle of a dance she started to feel bad pains, and she went to the infirmary. Several hours later a somewhat undersized but healthy baby boy was brought into the world and named Edilon.
Edilon was raised in the Weyr creche, cared for by both his mother and all of the other women of the lower caverns. His father was an active figure in his upbringing as well, since the man would sometimes visit the creche and bring him gifts, but M'lym didn't do any of the nurturing. He also grew up listening to Lonna complain about how M'lym was a workaholic and didn't pay enough attention to her.
He had a good childhood, although he was often teased for his runty size. As a consequence many of his playmates were girls, although looking back that may have been more personal preference than because of being teased. He liked hanging around the kitchen, helping (or sampling) with what the cooks were doing, and when he was old enough to be useful he started working there.
At age 12, he had to decide whether he wanted to stand as a candidate. His mother encouraged him to wait and see if he wanted to join a Craft instead, but his father told him to become a candidate. He had a talent for painting, and could probably go to the Harper Hall as an artist. He decided to wait--and two turns later decided that the call of the Hatching Grounds was too strong to ignore.

Dragon Info
Name: Danuth
Age: Hatchling
Size: 20.25 ft
Appearance:
The color of green Danuth's hide is a rich, vibrant color. It most closely resembles fresh grass, a color both highly desired and highly feared by the Pernese because of the rarity of grass and its perceived unluckiness. Along her left shoulder are three lighter green lines, curved and looking almost like a primitive sign for water. Four more lines, this time straight, cross her spine just above her tail. Finally, there are a series of small dots along the bridge of her nose and a line coming off the outer corner of each eye. Danuth is a small green, one of the smallest at her length of 20.25 feet, and carries around more weight than her sisters, being described as almost voluptuous.
Personality:
Danuth is a gentle, kind soul. She will always be there to listen to her rider's troubles, never judging, never trying to take things into her own claws to fix them. She might, however, give him or her condescending voice, though not intentionally. She means well, even if she doesn't always understand the situation completely.
As the mothering sort, Danuth is easily angered when someone tries to insult or harm her lifemate. She is extremely devoted and will go to the ends of Pern for her rider. She can be bossy at times, ordering her rider to do this or that, but she only intends for he or she to become all that they can.
