Zenwe, 6, Igen Hold, Sister, Unmarried
Children:
None
Appearance:
Ch'li likes facial hair. He likes the way his scruffy brown hair makes him look rugged, and keeps his cheeks warm when flying, and he likes everything about it. Unfortunately none of his various bosses(As a Candidate, Weyrling and Rider) have felt the same affection towards his facial hair, and while he managed to work out a compromise with his last Wingleader,(Keep it to the center of the face, and short) he is unsure how this new one will react to facial hair.
He has brown hair, brown eyes, tanned skin, and a midsized nose. He's not all that imposing, and not that memorable. His voice is deep, the low end of baritone, he usually has a wry smile on his face, and his eye brows are thick and straight.
He's of only average height, at 5'10'', and build thick and solid, with powerful muscle throughout his entire body. He is energetic, and athletic, and likes to eat and drink and be merry.
His clothes tend to be leathers. He doesn't have the personality to stay to be fitted and styled for other clothing. To be honest, when he traveled back in time, all he brought were leathers, and if the heat makes wearing leathers all the time impractical, then he won't wear a shirt.
Personality:
The idea of a manly, Igen, Greenrider is a fairly foreign thought. But it happened, at least once, in current history. That manly Greenrider is Ch'li. He's self assured, confident, compelling, and comfortable in his own skin. He likes men, doesn't like girls, and cares enough about himself and Isopeth to never lie about those facts.
He obeys and listens to Brown, Bronze, and Goldriders for several reasons: That they were chosen by Ranking Dragons, that order is preserved by them, and because he certainly doesn't want to be the one in charge. Ch'li likes order however, with a neat Weyr, neat harness for Isopeth, and with supplies of sweetsand, and oil for Isopeth easy to tell apart. It has been the end of two of his relationships, because the men that Ch'li becomes involved with tend to be messy, and don't like how habitually neat he is. And clean. The nicest thing about Nova is that it has water for being clean, unlike the often drought ridden Igen.
Ch'li tends not to be interested in flings. Flight is one matter, being easy is another. He likes the stability of being in a permanent relationship, and likes not needing to worry about running into a one night stand later. And since he's the type to work out a relationship so that he can talk to his ex's later, it's not a problem for him. He likes to initiate relationships, and tends to be flexible about who is the dominate one in a relationship.
He loves carbs, isn't a fan of sweets, loves fruit, dried or otherwise, and thinks meats is okay. He feelings on fish and vegetables are varied, as he loves some types, hates others, and doesn't care one way to the next about the rest.
He's nice, and doesn't put up with people who are too negative, or angry. He likes meeting new people, but rarely seeks out company unless he really likes someone. He doesn't consider many people friends, and doesn't really want too. He was fourteen when Thread began, and after Impressing at eighteen, he learned that other than Isopeth, horrible things could happen to other people, and he would never have to feel the effects unless he chose too. He also learned that some people weren't worth the risk of pain and angst that friendships, or relationships could cause.
He's good and dependable, only a little prissy, and some people wonder why he was chosen by a Green instead of a Blue. Ch'li likes to believe that his Green needed someone as strong and dependent as himself to Fly into thread with. But if someone who knew Ch'li very well were asked the question, they would comment on his romantic leanings, his nurturing qualities, and his feminine outlook on life, and they would say that Isopeth made the right choice. Ch'li is butch, but not butch enough to ride Blue.
History:
Born as the first son of a steward to a very young wife(and there were whispers of pre-marital scandal), in Igen Hold, young Charlilir lacked nothing, with nice clothes, food, and younger siblings. He grew up, smart and educated, and his father thought very seriously about training his son as another steward. It was a good life, and his son was gifted with numbers, and well liked. Unfortunately for his son, Charlilir didn't like to be in charge, and was wracked with nerves and stress which would have made his livelihood misery, except that at sixteen, he was Searched. Of course, flying into the sky to fight the Dreaded Thread wasn't exactly a parents idea of a good profession for their firstborn child, but they couldn't say no either.
And thus, Charlilir was Searched. He liked the Weyr, was interested in the Greenriders, and the whispered conversations with other Candidates that said that some Greenriders were together with other men. And while, at first, Charlilir was completely shocked about the idea, he slowly began to think about it, and as the candidate started to have time to think about the Weyr's looser policy about sexuality, he realized that he had never been attracted to woman as more than friends, and the candidate decided to not leave the Weyr, and accepting that about himself, he went on to meet a Greenrider, and was slowly introduced into the world of Igen Blue and Greenriders, and he never returned.
While he spent his days with candidates, he spent his nights, free days, and holidays with his special Greenrider friend, and other friends. When he was seventeen, six months after meeting B'nart, the Greenrider, he caught his first lover in bed with another man- and it wasn't Flight related. Angry, he didn't forgive B'nart, and stayed out of relationships for another six months. And then he met V'cap, and while they considered going into a relationship, Saharth clutched again.
And at his fourth Clutch, Ch'li finally Impressed, to a Green by the name of Isopeth, and started Weyrling Training. Weyrling Training was, by far, the worst experience that Ch'li had ever felt. He had lost friends when he'd come out as being attracted to men, but that hadn't meant the most people treated him as though he were a slow child.
And it had never been assumed that Ch'li would do whatever Brown or Blueriders wanted him too simply because he was a Greenrider! It never let up. And it wore at him, and his Weyrling Master wasn't pleased by the fact that he didn't simply obey unquestioningly(or at least question silently like the rest). He was sassy, and angry, and Ch'li was marked as combative when he graduated, and was one of the last tapped. He wasn't picked for a top Flight Wing despite his skill in the air.
But he lucked out, and got a very understanding, and friendly Wingleader and Second. And being a smaller, less intense Wing he was given personal time that he needed. He was led to understand how the obedience in all things to Higher Rankers led to the order that a Weyr needed, especially during Thread, and how no matter how trivial it seemed, he owed Bronzes and Browns, and even certain Blues his obedience. He owed it to the Weyr to keep his relationships to inside his personal weyr, and to be a good, well behaved Searchrider.
And while many friends cannot understand how he doesn't see his servile actions versus his strong confident appearance as wrong, he is well treated by most Rankers because of his good manners. With this in mind, he went through two other long term relationships, each ending on accord with both riders, and he stayed close with his Wing, and became well known as a respectful, if a tad less respectful in some unknown way as other Greenriders. And that was why, at six turns as a true Dragonrider, he was chosen to go back in time with Junior Weyrwoman Lazsreen and Weyrsecond J'var, and help shape the new Weyr into a place more like Igen, instead of a den of freaks like Telgar.

Dragon Info:
Name:
Isopeth
Age:
8 Turns
Color:
Green
Appearance:
Not small, not large, but mid sized, with uneven blobs of dark green mottling her light, mint green body, and several silvery patches located on her left shoulder, bottom half of her wing sail, near the base of her tail, and her right flank were she was threadscored.
Her tail is often inert, as Isopeth is rather lazy, and would prefer to sun all day, and not move one single inch. Her flights are nothing spectacular, and it takes Ch'li's urging to get her to pull off her best moves during Thread.
Personality:
Isopeth has never been very flirtatious. She likes other Greens, and likes listening to gossip, and is a little more interested in humans than is acceptable for her kind. She would love to speak to a human other than her Rider, but has never met one who deserved to speak with her. That she's a little shy of humans and their constant attention doesn't hurt.
Her interest in humans has led her to be able to Search fairly well. Her guesses aren't always right, but she can usually spot a likely candidate.
She likes swimming, but isn't too sure about swimming in the ocean. That their are odd little creatures in the water is kinda gross. She'd rather deal with alge. She's seen Flits at a distance, and would like to see more. They are so cute looking! She doesn't like felines though. Or canines.
Isopeth doesn't talk much, and has a habit of forgetting if something actually happened or if she just dreamed it. She likes boy candidates better than girls. She likes browns better than blues. She likes to compare sunning spots to the names of Ch'li's family, who she met once.
History:
Hatching seventh, Impressing third, Isopeth doesn't remember much about her life. She knows that she flies less than most Greens, and that she's often times a little too slow when it comes to flying Thread, and she knows that she can spot a candidate, and she knows that this new place has a better lake than the last place she was.
She knows that her rider is perfect, and knows that food is plentiful. She knows she hasn't fought thread for a while. She knows that she ought to be searching more. She knows that she likes this new place better.
But that's about it.
