Personality and Appearance: B'galad is a tall gangly fellow of about 6'5" with an unruly cap of red hair. True red hair, almost blood-colored, it is about shoulder length, and wild. His skin is naturally pale, like most redheads, but his years of dragonriding have made him both tanned and heavily freckled. He has a long, thoughtful face, with an oft-smiling mouth and a crooked nose. He prefers clothes in natural colors if muted green, brown and gray, and he lets himself go a bit, as far as the washing and the mending go. He's not gross or smelly by any means, but he always has a sort of unkempt or rumpled appearance.
B'galad can have a sort of overwhelming personality when you first meet him. He talks very fast and makes a lot of little flickery hand gestures. Laughing and smiling are his two most common facial expressions. Hr has a calm side too, however. When he takes his much loved long walks in nature, he has a pensive serenity that you wouldn't expect. He is also a very gentle, compassionate spirit. B'galad is the type of person to tend to injured animals and adopt abandoned young creatures. He's also very smart, he has a good memory and is quick to solve problems. B'galad is both brave and somewhat rash, his decisions are made as quickly as he talks, and he's definitely not afraid of adventure. Whatever he decides, he sticks to it with a stubborn tenacity that is somewhat amazing, if occasionally bothersome. But he always accomplishes his goal or gets his way eventually. Though he is friendly, and gets along well with everyone, he's quite awkward around the opposite sex. Half the time he seems too busy to notice, and the other half he's too tongue-tied to say a word.
History: Bregalad was the third child to a pair of guild members, named after his mother and his grandfather, who he supposedly resembled. His father was a member of the astronomy guild, and his mother was a member if the foods guild who specialized in orchard farming. Both were stationed at Miner Hold, and though they were quite busy with their careers, their children never felt neglected. Bregalad was raised mainly in the crèche of the Astronomy Hall, and he already loved to look at the stars when tragedy struck in his seventh year. His mother died giving birth to his last sibling, a girl named Fimadri. Fimadri had been a bit of a late surprise, at 37, it was considered somewhat risky for Fimbrethil to get pregnant. And so it proved.
Fimadri was healthy though, and much doted upon by her older siblings, which was lucky, as their father Fladrif was grief-stricken and threw himself into work, ignoring the rest if the world. Finally Bregalad reached the age if apprenticeship, and no one was surprised to see him join the Astronomy Guild. But while his father spent time in the clouds of theoretical thinking and mathematics, Bregalad leaned towards the more practical uses of Astronomy, and when he became a journeyman at age 18, he chose to specialize in the creation of navigational charts, a craft that might seem tedious, but was both precise and artistic in some cases.
He still kept tabs on his younger sister, and often spent time with her when he could. On one of their excursions, they discovered a firelizard nest, probably a green's, being attacked by tunnel snakes as it Hatched. The two siblings tried their best to rescue as many as they could, resulting in Bregalad suddenly becoming the proud owner of two blue firelizards, while Fimadri netted a brown and two greens. He named his two Orion and Sirius.
In his 19th year, his father invited him to attend a Hatching at the Weyr. The astronomy guild always sent a few representatives, and B'galad and his father would be guests of the Master Astronomer. This exciting outing proved to be fateful, for a rare copper Hatched that day and could not find a lifemate among the assembled Candidates. Sudden,y Bregalad heard a voice speaking into his mind, telling him that his Rowanth was quite hungry and could he please come down to feed him?
So, though he hadn't ever considered it, B'galad was now a weyrling. He did well on weyrling training for the most part, though he did get himself into a few scrapes due to his impetuous behavior. But he was eventually assigned to the mid-altitude wing, where he does well. He is considered a brave and quick-thinking fighter, as well as an amicable and trustworthy wing-mate.

DragonRider's Information
Dragon’s Name: Rowanth
Dragon’s Age: 6
Dragon’s Color: copper
Dragon’s Personality: Rowanth is a peaceful dragon for the most part. He's wise, calm, and doesn't hold grudges or let things bother him. He goes with the flow, and will just as eagerly participate in his lifemate's latest adventure as he will sunning on his ledge. He is diligent and patient, and this contrasts well with B'galad's rashness. The thing they most have in common is bravery. Rowanth is a fierce protector of what he loves and he will meet Threadfall without hesitation.
Dragon’s Appearance: Rowanth is a copper with a definite reddish cast. His coloring is very much reminiscent of fall foliage, with browns, oranges, reds, and muted golds all dappled over his hide. But his back and wings are also speckled with brighter reddish dots, some of which encircle his brow like a crown. He's about midrange in size for a copper, so maybe a bit smaller than a bronze and certainly leaner. In fact, he's quite skinny, but the gloss if his hide shows that he's in the full bloom of health. He's a graceful an limber flier, who is lovely to watch in the sky.
Pets:
Names: Orion and Sirius
Species: firelizard
Age: 8
Color: blue
Descriptions:
Orion is the smaller and darker of the two firelizards. His hide is so dark blue as to almost be black and is just barely mottled with a slightly lighter indigo. He has a lighter band of color around his neck like a collar. He's lean and supple, and of average size and stamina. Personality wise, Orion is clever but somewhat of a loner, he doesn't much socialize with anyone but B'galad, Rowanth and Sirius. He prefers to catch his own food rather than be fed, and is a fierce hunter of tunnel snakes.
Sirius is a large, stocky blue, he looks like he's made of muscle. His hide is still dark but is closer to royal blue and he has one large pale dot on his forehead. Sirius is loyal, friendly, and obedient, as far as he can understand orders. Unfortunately, he is quite dumb, and looks to Orion for leadership when B'galad isn't available. Sirius is easily excited and can be very clumsy. Nobody sulks like he does when he's been chastised..
