When I came of age, I chose…Zrict
Age: 16 ait-dass
Gender: Male
Rider of: n/a
Personality: Zrict is a young male of his race, as new to this strange world as the rest of his people. He has an immense curiosity and wishes to find out more about the native creatures of this world and their culture. He is fascinated by the Dragons, along with the small dragon like creatures he has seen flying about. From what he can tell, they are more docile than the native creatures tamed to ride the skies of Anakri. Zrict has no desire for confrontation with the natives, but to study them better, find a way to infiltrate their culture and perhaps learn more about their smooth hide mounts. He is a bit of an idealist and an explorer, having a bit of a loner streak about him considering the need to move quietly through the foreign land without putting his brethren at risk.
What the petite alien loses in size, he makes up for in ingenuity and stealth, along with a large portion of speed. His curiosity can get him in trouble if the creature he's studying catches wind of him, or if the creature he is watching over decides he loos tasty. He's very particular about his survey equipment, trying not to take too much with him that might alarm or make accidental noises in the middle of an exploration. He can usually be found not too far from the settlement exploring some sort of fauna or flora and has been known to bring 'specimens' back in his bag which tend to escape shortly afterwards. He is a trouble maker by proxy, not meaning to cause problems, only leading to problems being caused.
With his size, he's a little bit of a push over, especially around his fellow clutch mates and those born from the same season he was. He's tried to tame a Xaitu, only ending up with injuries that left him with bite scars and a slight limp. He's a little self conscious about the limp, especially among more alpha members of his age range. He does his best to try to help his community, not wanting to be a burden or end up as a snack for someone that is less scrupulous about 'accidents' out in the wild.
Appearance:After some egg troubles and the worry that he wouldn't live to get his canines, Zrict is a bit of a runt. Even though he hasn't reached his full mature height, he's still short in comparison to those of his age. Willowy like the rest of his species, he only stands around 5'10" and has tried eating different things, going to medical experts and everything to figure out how to increase his height ratio. His antennae are a pale grey color and are usually bound together with a strip of fabric at the shoulders. His scales are a dark, dusty dull orange, matching his eyes, which are a little brighter in color than his scales. He would be considered 'cute' by the standards of his people. He does not approve of being 'cute'.
Because of a botch hunt for a Xaitu in an effort to prove he wasn't just a runt to be pushed aside or coddled, Zrict ended up getting a few nice chomp marks on his legs, along with a slight limp from his left leg.
History: [none yet, but he barely remember eating the humans and their bonds in his hunger]
Mind Voice: His mind voice is soft and warm, giving a vibration of a pebble being tossed into a pool of water. It gets a bit more ripply when he gets excited about something, but otherwise has a soothing feeling to it.Quirks: + A bit of a loner
+ Small for his species
+ Wants to ride one of the alien-Xaitu creatures
Other: Optional
