Pronunciation: Dan-call
Age: 12

Orientation: Heter (but could change)

Mother: Kallymae-Died at 36(south of South Sands Hold)-Senior Journeywoman GlassSmith
Father: Veedan-Died at 40(south of South Sands Hold)-Senior Weaver Trader

Weyrmate/Lover: None yet
Children: None yet
Other: Foster Sister(Cousin) Siala-7-Holdless-Nova Weyr
Physical Description: Dankal has not really grown into a young lad much yet, standing around 4’6”. He is still thin from his travels over the past two turns, but not as thin as he had been when he first came to the Weyr. He has a bit of muscling that, with age, will turn into a good build, but for now is only noticed when he does something. Tanned skin from his travels, the thing that stands out most about him is his golden hair that is just long enough to be pulled into a runnertail with a bush like look from the natural curls that, when his hair had been short had just appeared rather poofy. Dark evergreen eyes like his sister’s are constantly shifting nervously unless his sister or foster-sister are nearby. He still sports the worn, ragged look that he had shown up at the Weyr in, preferring to see that Siala is well cared for first and foremost, his clothing patched and of muted shades of brown and green. His dark brown boots are newer than anything as the ones he had on when he came had been far too small.
Personality: Dankal is like his sister in many ways. He is more responsible than other lads his age and it comes from helping to care for his brother and cousin over the past few turns. Life has been hard on him, but he has persevered. He faces challenges without worry or fear, already having it in his head that he can overcome them without much hassle. For a lad, he has a rather close relationship with his siblings and cousin and it shows when he is seen around them. He is currently a little down in the pits since his brother’s death, but he is pressing on, looking for that silver lining that every cloud must have behind its darkness. He can turn his hand to anything asked of him, much like his sister in that he will work hard to earn his keep, but he still relies on her guidance the most.
History: Dankal was born the second child and first son to a traveling Weaver and a GlassSmith. Everything was fine and normal in his life until his 10th turn. As his family was traveling to the southern Cot Holds of South Sands Hold, dragons attacked their small caravan. In the confusion and fright of the attack, Dankal ran toward the back of the caravan, hoping to escape with the others. Spying his sister with his brother and cousin on a runner, he shouted for them to wait for him. At least there was a way away from all this chaos. Climbing on the runner, he took his cousin and clung on tight as the runner took off. His sister passed out that night and early in the morning, Dankal had gone looking for help, finding it in a kind Cot Holder nearby. They stayed long enough for his sister to heal, himself and her helping wherever they could to earn a keep. They all thanked the hospitality of the Cot Holders before they headed out. The Weyr was the safest place for them and the only place that they could try to meet up with any who had survived the attack, but as far as they knew, no one else had survived.
As they traveled, Dankal cared for his younger siblings the most, as they had sort of seen their cousin as a sister now, while Veekally did odd jobs to earn them a warm place to sleep, food, and clothes. After two turns of survival, they finally found the Weyr and managed admittance, but Alldan had grown quite sick over the past sevenday. While they were in quarantine, Alldan got worse and he died a few days later. Dankal tries to comfort Siala as much as he can since she was younger and of the same age as Alldan…

Name: Tanya
Species: Runnerbeast
Age: 10
Description: Tanya is a large and long-bodied, stocky mare with a black mane and tail, her dun coat a light sandy coloring with a dark stripe along her spine, fading into black from her knees and hocks to her hooves. She is even tempered and willing, though can be frightened on occasion, but never so badly that she downright refuses to listen to her rider’s wishes. She likes youngsters and it shows in her affections for the two ‘brats that are constantly on her back during their travels.
