Description

Tall and hale, this young man has strength written throughout every line of his lean-muscled frame, displayed most readily in the strong line of his jaw leading to the squared taper of his chin. His lips are thin but expressive, given to an easy and frequent grin. The bridge of his slightly wide, subtly rounded nose bears a small triangular scar almost directly between kind, keen brown eyes. Thick, dark brows match the dense shock of dark brown hair that seems to constantly threaten wildness atop his head, slightly overlong and easily rendered unruly by wind or wetness. Deft-fingered hands bear many small scars about his knuckles, and callouses roughen his fingertips and spots on his palms. Despite his handsome strength, youth subtly softens every edge, save perhaps in the light but rugged shadow of stubble that stubbornly clings to his jaw, cheeks, and upper lip.

Personality: Malosim - or Mal, as he prefers to be called - is really quite average in terms of personality. He is, perhaps, a friendlier sort than most might initially take him for, however. He’s also earnest, applying himself to his Craft because he loves it and not because it is or was ever expected of him. He’s been known to be a flirt, though his flirting is of a sweeter bent rather than lustful (not that he’s immune to lust, of course) and is lately focused on one young woman in particular. He enjoys a good beer, some friendly competition at dragon poker, a wild night at a Gather, harmless shenanigans - nothing out of the ordinary, really.

He does have quite a protective side, however, especially where his loved ones are concerned. This is where his loyalty becomes most fierce as well. He’s also quite defensive about his Craft, largely unwilling to keep his mouth shut if someone speaks ill of it. In fact, that might have something to do with the little scar on his nose. It might take him a few drinks to spill that story, though.


Common Knowledge

  • He is weyrmated to Xanthee. Throughout the Turns, he made no secret of his devotion to her. It lasted even through months of separation with her Candidacy, twice, and then her Impression to Liowyth. They're now living together in a lakeside weyr as weyrmates and are parents to twins - a boy named Thane and a girl named Lexi - and another little boy named Alesim.
  • Mal takes excursions out to the Central Range Caves, presumably to go study the gemstone lodes in some of the deeper caves. A warning from some unsavory sorts on his last trip prompted a travel ban by the Minecraft, though with no incidents occurring lately, those trips may soon resume.

Relationships

Name Relationship Thoughts
Xanthee Weyrmate "This girl… Faranth, she is something out of my wildest dreams. She's well-spoken, fiery, beautiful, has a bold side and the most gorgeous eyes. I've fallen for her, hard, and enough to know I love her through and through. I know it's a risky thing to say, considering how young she is…well, how young we both are, honestly, but some things you just know through to your bones, and that's one of 'em for me. Being away from her while she Stood was the most difficult thing I'd face in a while…but what we have is strong enough to survive anything, especially a little time apart. She's finally met her dragon! There's a green that's looked to her, Liowyth. She's a dragonrider now, just like I knew she'd be! Shot my plan to marry her clear out of the sky, but since dragonriders can weyrmate, we went that route…and it doesn't feel any different from my original intention, especially now that we have Thane and Lexi. I'm the luckiest man on Pern!"
Evka Acquaintance "One of Xan's friends from the Zingari. I met her at the first performance night I went to at the caravan, and then ended up around her again when Xan arranged a double date trying to get her and Daen together. It didn't work out, but the girl herself is nice. She's moved to Southern and Impressed, and I know Xan misses her, but at least they're only a dragon-ride apart."
Amani Acquaintance "Another of Xan's closest friends. Can't complain about having Southern's Senior for close to a sister! She's a good sort as well, but again, far away most of the time. I'm glad she makes time to come up and see Xan, though."

History

Malosim was born at Ista Hold, his mother, Samnia, and father, Halmoran, both belonging to the Seacraft. While he never minded the water, it just didn’t call to him the way that it had his parents. What did seem to hold his interest was rocks and geology, the forces that forged the land around him as well as the smaller things he would come across.

A few Turns after his younger sister Alsani was born, his parents sent him off to the Minecraft Hall in Telgar to apprentice. As expected, he excelled in his studies there, eventually turning his focus to both firestone and gemcraft. Specializing in both, he reasoned, would expand his opportunities for postings once he became a journeyman. Indeed, he had his sights set on Igen Weyr for the chance to both assist the dragonfolk with their firestone as needed and to inspect the Central Range Caves near the Weyr that contained largely untouched pockets of precious stones. Upon walking the tables, his wish was granted. With a brand new junior journeyman’s knot on his shoulder, Malosim arrived at Igen Weyr…perhaps not knowing quite what he’s gotten himself into but ready and eager for the challenges that await nonetheless.

Fortunately, one of the first things Mal ended up doing during an initial perusal of the Bazaar was meeting Xanthee, the girl he would eventually fall in love with. Things started moving for them before a little incident near the Central Range Caves involving some shady sorts taking issue with his scouting of the caves' wealth. So his views of his new home haven't soured too much because of that balance, but he's becoming more and more aware of the risks associated with the desert Weyr and Weyr life in general. What he has with Xanthee, however, assures him that he has all he needs to face anything that comes.
