Appearance:
The most striking thing about Kalindan is his light, shining blond hair. Constant bleaching by the sun has made his hair a shining halo on the top of his head. Despite his attempts to smooth it with water, the locks jut out around whichever way they wish. It's almost as if they have a mind of their own, often pointing every which way with indiscernible sense of direction. And, although he dislikes it's unwillingness to cooperate, and although he will complain about it and mock it if given opportunity, Kalindan likes his hair a great deal. So much so, he has decided to let it grow out some.
Standing at 6'1”, Kalindan is still growing quickly. Having just left a growth spurt, his body is in the lanky stage that most teenagers adopt at some point: skinny and long-legged, but with developing muscles on his legs and arms. While this isn't the most attractive his body will ever be, it is obvious that in a Turn or two he'll develop into something more than pleasant to look at. As a testament to (hopefully) what height will be reached in his next growth spurt is his rather large hands and feet, overly-so in comparison to the rest of his body.
Light Grey-brown eyes peer out of his light-toned skin, putting a new turn of color to brighten his complexion. His face is actually quite pleasant, having lost that bit of baby-fat, and yet still full. It is drawn down to a firm chin, and cheekbones accentuated high under his eyes. Kalindan has a rather large forehead, as well, but it doesn't detract form the overall pleasantness of his young face. And this face, while not attractive, does yet have potential to become something as he grows a little older.
A young kid, still, Kalindan dresses in the most ridiculous clothing. The concept of matching is utterly foreign to him, and although this is the stage where he should probably become conscientious to his clothing choices... it doesn't seem to have happened yet. Reds, blues, yellows, oranges: he appreciates the vibrant, fiery colors that make up the sky. In no semblance of fashion, he tends to put them together and then walk out the door. Comfort and flash is more Kelantan’s style, rather than whatever current Weyr style happens to be at the time.
Faceclaim: Tom Felton
Personality: Happy-go-lucky is probably the best way to describe Kalindan. He is a jokester, and enjoys kidding around and making fun. Of course, it's all for the purpose of having a good time! He grew up very cheerful, and it would probably take something large to shock him out of his loud, boisterous happiness. Always smiling, always laughing, and always having a grand ol' time. In fact, if he's not found with a smile on his face, then there's probably something seriously wrong with his emotional outlook.
Despite this outer figure that he shows to most of the world, Kalindan is actually quite an intelligent person. He views the world through clear, not rose-tinted glasses, and has a very good understand on how the world turns. This makes him a bit of a pessimist, but that's nothing he can really control. Finding himself depressing, it is a rare day that he voices his true thoughts, and he tries to force himself to be less mordant by being more cheery. Although it doesn't really work, there are times where he can let go of his hide-knowledge and be the happy person that matches his outward persona.
Truth be told, the outward persona is probably closer to the real Kalindan than the inner pessimist. In a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere, he still carries the skin that hides his doubts. So it causes speculation (the internal kind, of course) that his inner emotions are simply self-doubt, and he shouldn't worry so much, and he isn't hiding himself from the rest of the world. He can't completely shove away his fears, however, as intellect proves that his fears are factually based, and not just random nonsense. And yet, no one, not even Kalindan, has ever known what the most honest side actually is.
He also has quite the temper, when made angry. While usually a happy person, if something goes wrong, Kalindan isn't adverse to yelling. While he doesn't often get physically violent... it's not completely unheard of for him to throw a punch or two. Usually, it's at a stone wall or the like, but he has gotten into one or two physical disputes before. Just because he usually wouldn't, and because he doesn't like to, doesn't mean that he won't. After all, he's fairly used to getting what he wants, and when he doesn't, he tends to act out a bit.
Girls. Boys, too, for that matter. Anyone that he has an inkling of an attraction provides an interesting reaction for Kalindan. Apparently, he never grew out of the faze where boys pull the girl's hair when they like them, tease them relentlessly, and chase them around. Because, sparing the chasing and adding a little more teasing, that's exactly what he does. Certainly not suave, but not altogether without his own particular charm, Kalindan just doesn't know how to treat the pretty people, or the funny people, or the cute people who he comes across. Which, in and of itself, is pretty adorable.
Hobbies/Skills: He frequents the Records Room, but it's much less often now. He's not so good at basic crafts, and he can't play instruments to save his life, but... yeah. XD
Pets: None.
History: Growing up at Refuge had its ups and downs like any other child had. Kalindan had good days and bad days. Work and play turned into a whirlwind of activity that was mostly forgotten or just a blur of memories after his mothers death 12 years ago while giving birth to a sister that didn't make it either. He never really learned about how his father died all he knows is it wasn't long after his mother passing that the 'accident' happened. Even though he doesn't remember his father much, Tamar knew of the great Brown dragon that visited. Funny one remembers the Dragon.
Forever grateful he had a large family that was there for him during the hard times, Kalindan didn't think he turned out quite so bad. At least that's what his grandmother tells him. He looks like his father, with his mothers eyes. It's a good combination in Kalindan eyes, the best of both of them he figures.
After his fathers death, he became a weyrbrat. He didn't care one bit, it was heaven. Being around all those dragons was what little boys dreamed of. He worked hard and gained respect from other riders and weyr personal alike. He supposed the way his hair turned out was a direct result of many holdwomen rubbing the top of his head in affection.
Impression:It was no surprise when he ended up on the sands giving homage and praise to Gold Aeriath with all the other candidates. Quaking in his boots, he barely remembered how hot the sands were when an egg that was sitting slightly off kilter caught his eye. Bowing again to the Queen, he touched the egg lovingly.
Days flew by but were slow at the same time until the day came for hatching. He rushed pulling robes on and trying desperately to tame his unruly hair as all the candidates were rushed out on the sands. Then things happened in a hurry. Eggs were hatching all over, the sound of cracking eggs, crooning dragons and cries of dragonetts were filling the air. Scared silly all Kalindan could do was stand there and hope that one of the beautiful creatures on the sands would choose him.
Then it happened, everyone saw the beautiful small blue dragon walking the line of candidates for all of Pern looking like he was making sure he chose just the right one. When the unsteady hatchling stopped in front of him to rub his head on Kelantan’s knees it was all over, the most wonderful feeling in the whole world filled him up to the tips of his hair, he would never forget the words the little dragonette spoke to him that day: "KalindanMine. He said smoothly, rubbing against the boy's legs affectionately. Your Osirith has been waiting for you. Are you pleased with me?"
Wonder of wonders, it was the very dragonette that came from the very egg that had drawn Kalindans attention that very first day they were allowed to touch them the first time.

DRAGON INFORMATION
Name: Osirith (Oh-sye-rith)
Impressed To: Kalindan
Color: Blue
Age: 3 Turns
Discription: Osirith's hide is darker than sky blue by several shades. The color can be called Egyptian blue. He has no markings, no blemishes. The color itself is quite eye opening as it is. Osirith is a smaller blue though not the smallest. He has a lithe body with a long neck and tail and larger wingspan. He will be agile enough when he is older to keep some greens on their toes. His claws are a dark gray and are not all that noticeable. kremer-pigmente.de/shopint/Media/Shop/10060aegyptischblau-m.jpg
Personality: This little blue is a sweet natured sort. He is supportive, caring and laid back. His favorite thing to do is relax by the lake. Nothing ever troubles him as he is a calm and reserved sort of guy. Like his rider he prefers to enjoy the world rather than dwell on the negative. In fact he never lets things get to him and often seems to be at complete peace with the world. He feels very strongly the emotions and thoughts of people so he may make a good Search dragon should his rider notice how sensitive he is. Being sensitive does not make him weak. A good flier and a steady friend, Osirith is gets along well with everyone and everything.
When it comes to greens he is a bit more suave than his rider in that he knows how to treat a green however he can be just as wrong about pursuing their interest as his rider is. The blue could never think of hurting anyone. He obeys authority in all instances which shows great understanding of the way the Weyr ranks work. Osirith would be mortified if his rider did something to offend someone of higher rank especially a Goldrider. He is neither lazy nor hard working but somewhere in the middle. Osirith will do what it takes to be average or a little above average but is by no means ambitious.
History: It was clear to everyone the Silent Nature Blue was taking his time, moving down the candidates slowly and watching each with gentle eyes. It was with slow, padding steps that he approached the boy he had chosen, stepping close to him as he spoke. KalindanMine. He said smoothly, rubbing against the boy's legs affectionately. Your Osirith has been waiting for you. Are you pleased with me? He asked, voice sweet and anxious.
