[RIDER] Syas of Blue Detlath [Approved]

[demon_pachabel]

Name: Syas
Age: 30
Nameday: 3545.04.18
Sex: Male
Sexual Orientation: ???????
Weyr: Western Weyr
Rider Rank: Wingrider
Previous Rank/Craft: --
Physical Description: If stood in a line with his two younger siblings, Syas would be the odd one out. He is half a head shorter than both Unnie and Papys, far broader and thicker in build. Like Papys, Syas is pale and prone to burning, and has the same dark eyes as his siblings. Unlike them, he has hair so blonde it almost looks white, cut short so it sticks up for the first half of the day no matter how it is combed down.
Personality: First impressions make Syas come off as carefree and relaxed - and he is always happy to be a figure that offers ease. There is almost always a smile on his face and if asked, he'll offer a helping hand. He's often quite popular with kids in that he'll join in on their harmless pranks ('Oh no, where did little Timmih go?'), and will even incite such mischief himself. It is rather difficult to tell when or if Syas is being serious at all - everything he does is draped in a humor that is a few steps above the typical dad-joke level. If he sees that opportunity for a pun or some play on words to lighten the mood (or to make everybody want to slap him), he will take it every time. While mostly light-hearted and intended to lighten the mood, it is not unheard of for someone to become a target of dripping sarcasm from the man, turning someone into the butt of the joke for some reason.

Despite his lighthearted nature, Syas does not easily offer himself to others. He'll offer his more light-hearted appearance, burying away his personal feelings and struggles somewhere nobody will find them. He will carry your yoke, but his is not for others to see. He will readily take more in a new friendship than he gives in some ways - tell him your secrets, your pains, but he will not expose his for you. His loyalty and his word walk hand-in-hand, however, and he can be relied on to keep his word even at detriment to himself - even if he doesn't enjoy it or doesn't want to do it.

For all his good nature and swell humor, Syas is not an entirely safe person. He will absolutely cut someone to the core, and has no issue with tearing someone down to size - no matter who they are. As sharp as his humor is, his cruelty can be just as - if not more. Syas will come for your self worth and every weakness you have and he will not feel bad for it. But only if it comes to that.

Positive Trait List Humorous, Supportive, Dutiful
Negative Trait List Sarcastic, Guarded, Vicious
History: When Syas was 15, he made a decision to leave the hold of his birth with his younger sister. In the shortest of terms, it didn't pan out - both he and his sister, Unnie, were returned to their home. Between being chewed out for running off and actually catching his father's hand, he was informed his younger brother, Papys, had gone missing trying to follow them.

That it was being framed as his fault as the oldest sibling did not go missed.

Even upon the return of Papys on dragonback nearly a month later, Syas didn't entirely forgive himself for the incident. 5 years after the whole hullabaloo, search would come for Unnie - and for him. While initially reluctant, he accepted it ultimately as his responsibility to take care of his younger sister. Perhaps it was also partially to get out under the judging looks of his parents whom he felt never truly forgave him for putting both of his siblings into danger.

His intentions would be quickly pulled from underneath him when Unnie impressed first and even before a dragon came for Syas, she left the Weyr entirely. It would be shortly after that which he would be approached by a fine boned blue on the sands.

Syas! Please tell me you still have some adventure left in you! Your Detlath plans for us to go on lots of them!

And they would, within reason, always making sure to come back to the Weyr at the end of the day. Such adventures would come to a halt, however, when Thread returned, and while they would come back cautiously, they became less reckless when Syas' youngest brother made his way to Western and he again took up the mantle of responsible older brother.
Other: Oldest brother to Unnie and Papys.

DRAGON
Name: Detlath
Age: 9
Color: Blue
Size: 28'
Physical Description: Detlath is very sleak in profile, but broad in build. His neck is shorter than average and his wings just a few inches longer in the fingers.
Personality: Detlath is a free spirit and an adventurer, ready to see it all and do it all! Unfortunately, his wings are made of proverbial wax and he will eagerly take himself as far away from home and as close to the sun as he possibly can. So ready is Detlath for his next adventure that he'll neglect his current responsibilities and even more, he won't pay attention to what is going on around him - even in the thick of trouble.

Strongly reliant on his rider, it is entirely Syas' job to make sure both he and Detlath remain out of trouble and on task - much to the blue's chagrin. He would much rather be off chasing a pretty green, or dreaming about the beach, or finding out which region has the best Wherry.

But for anybody looking for a good time, Detlath is an eager friend who is happy to share his wisdom and his good finds. Both a familiar face and a stranger will find him good company - and almost impossible to upset. Almost.
