Physical Description: G'ker is a little above average height, about 5'11" and lean, but muscled, weighing about 175 lbs. He has wheat-colored hair, which he keeps short cropped and it is beginning to go gray about the temples. He is tanned, but not overly so and his eyes and hazel, being brown in the center and usually green but sometimes gray, Occasionally, you might catch a hint of blue there too. He has a narrow handsome face and the crinckles around his eyes show that he has a ready smile and nice white teeth. He tends to wear shirts that are gray or blue, along with loose fitting wherhide pants and comfotable boots. He's not much for jewelry, but he wears a silver pendant cast in the likeness of a fox around his neck on a leather cord and if you ask, you'll find that it was an heirloom that his family brought over from the Crossing. he has a whitened Threadscore on his left shoulder blade and small one on the left side of his neck. He voice is mostly quiet, pleasantly gravell and neither deep nor squeaky.

Personality: G'ker is a friendly man with an easy sense of humor. He likes to do impressions of other people and he generally just mugs around trying to make people laugh. He's fairly easy going and a bit of a slob and he doesn't take himself too seriously. He's actually a fairly talented musician and somewhat of a poet, but its not something he tells everyone. In relationships he is caring and sweet, but never too serious. Seriousness seems to chafe him, and the only thing he takes seriously is his job as a dragonrider. G'ker is only mildly ambitious, he likes being a Wingsecond, and doesn't really want any more. He believes in leading by example and he hates to have to yell at someone, but he can, and he's a good fighter. He just avoids fighting if at all possible. He likes animals, horses especially and he likes to have time alone outdoors. He avoids places where there are lots of noise and also tends to avoid conflict. He is a steady friend and a compassionate listener, but don't expect him to get too sappy. He's more likely to make a joke. When not working, he prefers to be left alone so that he can spend time with his cat, his son and his dragon. He loves his son Golarin and hopes the boy will soon Impress. G'ker does enjoy mating flights, but they rarely result in any sort of lasting bond. If a women managed to tie him down, she would find that he is not terribly open with his feelings, but he hardly has a temper to speak of. he is also, genreally very honest and trustworthy. He takes his word as very important.

Habits:G'ker sucks his teeth when he is upset and srcatches his head.

Hobbies:G'ker plays gitar and flute, writes some poetry and is a competent sketch artist. He also tends to pick up random hobbies from time to time, like woodcarving and then eventually give up on them.

History:G'ker's mother raised him alone as they traveled all over the continent, healing the sick. His father was just a man..a widower holder with whom Kerian had spent a night or three. He too had been a handsome man and had Kerian not been so work-oriented, she might have stayed right then. But she was comiitted and stayed committed even when she found herself pregnant. Still, she did send Goran a message about his newborn son and visited from time to time as the boy grew. Goker lived in almost every hold and he enjoyed the wandering life, though he had few friends. He always felt he didn't need them, he had his horse, Roheryn, after all, and his flute. Still, he was growing and his mother began to think about apprenticing him to a craft and Goker wasn't sure he liked the idea. So, when he was twelve, he begged his mother to be allowed to live with his father for a year before he went. Goker enjoyed this time. Goran bred horses and he was pleased to let his only son help him out. He began to think he might leave his smallhold to the boy when he died. But when the year was almost up, a Searchrider came from Northern Barrier and picked Goker to go. Goran was crushed, but he understood Gokers excitement. what an adventure it would be. Two years later, Goker Impresses bronze Sonerth, becoming G'ker. The pair formed a deep bond very quickly and did well in their weyrling training. G'ker showed incipent leadership abilities, but at only seventeen, was too young to take a leading position and he seemed to be in no hurry. Meanwhile, his mother attained her mastery and decided to settle down with Goran after all, quickly conceving a second son to inherit the smallhold. Sonerth chased all the golds but never quite caught one, though he did catch the occasional green, a chance for G'ker to find a stand in quickly...for he has no interest in men. (Blech!) One of these times, when he was in his twenties, his son Golarin was conceived. The mating flight was fun enough, but Sylarina, the woman, showed no interest in raising the son she bore nine months later, obviously G'ker's child by his looks. G'ker loved the boy immediately and took it upon himself to raise him, which he did quite well at until Golarion was nine turns. Then he was made Wingsecond of Nova wing and with his extra responsibilities, was forced to give his son to the weyr creche completely. But G'ker still makes time for the boy, who's shaping up to be a fine lad. Two turns ago, Goran died. G'ker was crushed at first, but has since gotten over his greif. Meanwhile, G'ker is happy where he is, though he has begun to think it might be time to settle down with one woman, for he finds, he wants more children of his own and a companion for his later years, should he manage to survive Threadfall, that is.

He has a Threadscore on his right thigh and a few smaller ones across his back.
Personality:Sonerth is a loner much like his rider, but more serious in disposition. He can actually be a bit of a pessimist. He is noisy though, even for a dragon, he hums, croons and trumpets to himself often and no one seemed to know why. He also can be kind of a sappy flirt, especially to queens.

He is lean with a long body and short legs. his eyes are gold with green middles. He is a dark brown striped tabby with a cream colored belly. His back and sides are mosly gray, but his underfur is pale cinnamom and this color becomes prominent on his neck, head and chest. His fur is mostly short, becoming longer on his belly and tail, giving it a slight bottle brush quality.
Personality: Bone is a demanding and affectionate feline with a loud voice. He doesn't like to be left alone and does like to be held and cuddled like a baby. He can be mischevious, he claws the furniture and plays with any small object left unattended. He is easily firghtened though, but also very forgetful.
