History

Tisdan came into the world with less than auspicious beginnings. He would be the last child of Ustelan and his first wife Marisse because the Lady Holder died giving birth to him. While not anything he could have helped, his father always held him responsible for the Lady's death. Tisdan was put into the care of Ustelan's sister, Umara, and her husband, Marsen, to be raised with their children.

It worked out well for everyone for a time. Until Tisdan, fourteen, arranged for himself to be taken to High Reaches Weyr on Search days before the hatching. It would be his way out, or so he thought, and he wouldn't have to live in the shadow of his undeserved disfavor anymore. When he walked off of the sands as T'dan, rider of bronze Lycoth, he found that his disfavor had become much more deserved.

Ustelan didn't openly rebuke his son, however, and instead made it seem like his own idea. It couldn't have happened to a better son, after all, (one that he wasn't particularly fond of anyway) and a bronze spoke highly of the Holder's blood. T'dan was left to be a dragonrider in relative peace and he grew into a well respected man at the Weyr.

Peace can only last for so long, though. A threadfall midway through the comet pass would prove fatal for bronze Lycoth but not for his rider. Tisdan was injured and mostly unconscious for several weeks. He would have rather stayed unconscious, too, but he didn't. Fulling realizing the extent of his loss, Tisdan was distraught and the grief caused by the sight of the Weyr's dragons drove his oldest daughter, Adissa, to petition his return to Nabol. Selfish or not, she wouldn't allow him to end his pain through suicide.

His recovery was a slow one and probably wouldn't ever be quite complete, but Tisdan did what he could to fill the huge, gaping hole that Lycoth left behind. Adissa stayed near him almost always to help keep him on the right track. She was one of the few people who could (usually) rein him in when he went off the deep end.

Despite his sometimes unpredictable condition, Tisdan began acting as a sort of unofficial advisor when it came to Weyr relations. Six turns after the death of his dragon and he could even stand to look at them again from time to time. Although well known that Tisdan himself had little desire to claim himself heir, there were rumors that he favored one of his own sons and still more that he would just as soon see his siblings dead before accepting them or their offspring as heirs. But who really cares what a crazy ex-dragonrider thinks?
