Personality: For most of his life he was happy-go-lucky, unfortunately he had to grow up, and fast, when the rockslide happened. While he will let loose periodically, most of the time he is very serious. He wears his grief for his mother and brother on his sleeve as though he will be in mourning forever. Most of the time he is passive, unless someone is in danger, whether from thread or another menace, then he springs to life, doing what he can to save them.

Background: He was born as the oldest of three children to an unlikely pair. His mother always wanted to be a rider, but was never chosen. His father hadn't wanted to be anywhere near dragons when he was searched. The two came together during a mating flight where she 'helped him out.' The soon developed a relationship which they affirmed in the presence of a harper after they discovered that she was pregnant with his child. Unlike most children in the weyr, he and his siblings were not fostered out. They lived with their mother and father, were disciplined by them, and loved by them. There was one instance that he got into a lot of trouble when he was playing with one of his knives and accidentally hurt his brother. Rakyn was in bandages for about twelve sevendays and he took care of him. When he was eighteen he was about to give up on being searched and was looking to leave the weyr, not wanting to be near dragons if he couldn't be a rider. Then, at a hatching, when he least expected it, a blue dragonette rejected those on the grounds and headed towards the tiers. He sat stock-still, afraid to even breathe, for fear that the dragonette would turn the other way. Sure enough, the blue found him and his life was changed forevermore. The pair grew and learned how to be the best dragon and rider that they could be. Dukalath was hungry and they'd gone out to feed him when the rockslide happened. Immediately they went to help, but it was too late. In fact, it was he that found his brother's body in the rubble. Now he's just trying to keep going, day by day, trying to find something to live for. Pet Information
