Description

Two-word Concept: Otter Smith

Personality: Like many Traders, Finn values family above all else. Don't mess with his kin. Otherwise, he's friendly and outgoing, enjoying new horizons, new people, new places. He doesn't like staying put or limits put on him and chafes at being stuck in one place doing (what he determines is) nothing for long periods of time. Unless it's fishing. He loves to fish. Lots of energy, this one, and much of it bent towards having fun and getting into trouble. He's long been aware of the effect his clear blue eyes and crooked grin have on womenfolk, something he trades on mercilessly, even if only to get them to smile. Smiling is Finn's favorite thing. Well, fourth favorite thing. Forging, fishing and fu-lirting. Then smiling.

Description: Arresting. F'in's eyes are arresting. Bright blue and clear as a cloudless Summer sky. The mind behind those eyes so very, very present that meeting them has impact. Premature crowsfeet promise a ready warmth and humor that eases crystalline intensity. Full lips, recurved, oft part to show a flash of teeth, usually a smile, but sometimes -rarely- a snarl from the fiery mantle of the smith's molten soul. A dusting of scruff roughens a refined jaw and cheekbones. His tall frame is strong and heavily muscled from turns of hard labor. Broad shoulders, straight back, upright bearing. F'in's physical presence is as powerful as his mental presence. F'in is exactly where he's at. Grounded. HERE. And possibly looking back at you. Right into you. Through you.

Wearing: Favoring clothes that breathe in the desert he calls home, F'in's dress varies depending on his duties. Leathers are plain and functional, warm brown and well-tended, dusty — because Igen. Dress leathers are only that by virtue of being worn less frequently. Crisper. Less dusty. Robes are long and layered, neutral tones, comfortable. He wears a belt pouch and a knife at his hip. Sturdy boots. Around his neck a leather cord that jingles and clatters faintly when he moves strung with two keys, a runnerbit and a luminous blue pendant.


Rainchecks and RPs!

A section for things I'd like to RP and a place for other folks to leave me scene notes/ideas.

We couldn't meet up. I was tapped, you were tapped. I was brainfried, you were brainfried. BUT WE HAVE A DATE WITH RPs. Please add your name here if there's something you want to snag. If I've forgotten someone in the list below, please add yourself! (I've slept since then!)

Stumped for Scene Ideas? F'in is always game for:

  • Smithing. He doesn't keep up with the work, but he misses it. Talk shop. Inventions. ETC.
  • Talking. Champion listener/mascara blotter. IGEN'S WOOBIE.
  • Fishing. One of his favorite F's that he doesn't get to do much any more.
  • Dragonchatter. Rhakanth's mindscape is super fun for me to write.
  • General dragonrider stuff. Drills. Sweeps. Threadfall. Threadfall aftermath.

Common Knowledge

  • He has a Bitran drawl muddied with the accents of dozens of other places.
  • Proud of and protective of his family - especially 'little' sister Onari.
  • Loves the Three Fs = Forging, Fishing, Flirting.
  • Former smith, focusing on tools.
  • An AWLM for three weyrling classes before becoming Weyrleader to new Senior Weyrwoman Diem.

History

Second son of Kona and Forin, F'in (once Finn) was a Smith focusing on tools, particularly knives. He learned the trade at his uncle Kotheran's knee. Kotheran died three turns ago of a wasting sickness. Everyone grieved his passing, but Finn and Kalfor especially so, having learned their trade under Kortheran's tutelage. Finn loved the wandering Reika life and was not happy the circumstances that led them to be tethered to Igen. In spite of this, he been enjoyed all the sights and sounds and places and people of the Bazaar and Weyr. He particularly enjoyed getting to meet dragons and eventually impressed his own Rhakanth.

He has struggled as a dragonrider, trying to hang onto his old life — even living for a time in his old wagon and doing special (and secret) work for the Akzhan family as their forger of runner bits. He made a small fortune doing that, but after the death of Weyrwoman Linny, he re-evaluated his purpose, joined Mirage to personally protect the remaining goldriders. With V'ard's appointment to Weyrleader, the bronzerider was tapped to be an assistant weyrlingmaster and has shepherded his first weyrlings through their weyrlinghoods.

With the decimation of Hogback, F'in returned to the Wings again until another clutch required his attention. He got another reassignment in the form of Rhakanth catching Zsaviranth, first queen to rise after Mayte and Rhiscorath relinquished their positions as Senior.
