Z'ian
Description
Z'ian is a man that looks comfortably settled into his own body. Tall with broad shoulders and an appropriate level of muscle to his body he exudes a certain level of confidence that's not cocky really, but closer to being easily capable. His hair is a tousled mess of a dirty blonde that's more often than not on the shaggy side and he's usually shaven, but sometimes he'll let a five o'clock shadow creep in and mature for a few days. The angles of his face are sharp with a strong jaw and a nose that's on the longish side. The most striking and likable features about him is probably his bright blue eyes and friendly smile that lights up his face. Otherwise he's more or less typical in appearance, leaning towards the boy-next-door look.
There's nothing write home about here. He's the type of man that dresses plainly, but practically. The High Reaches are cold, so he'll wear his fur lined riding jacket. His shirts will be long sleeved and his pants will be a dark, heavy material. His boots are also heavy and made to deal with clomping around in snowy areas. The only thing that would be even relatively important about them is that they have the tendency to make him look much more bulky than he really is.
WYSK
Z'ian is a bronzerider at High Reaches Weyr. He's been there for fifteen turns and has remained off the radar for most of that time. He doesn't have any known enemies or people out to get him. Yet.
History
Originally Zachrian of High Reaches Hold, Z'ian came to impress to bronze Tsanth around fifteen turns ago from a clutch of Teonath and Wyaeth's. He's been at the weyr for many of the important events that have unfolded since then, though always on the sidelines and never as a major player obviously. Over the turns he's shed off the preconceptions of weyr life that many holders are known for harboring and has settled in to become a relatively well adjusted and pro-High Reaches Weyr rider.
He's exceedingly casual in his dealings with other people and is well known for his friendly attitude. Z'ian is the sort of person that other people generally enjoy being friends with. He's interested in confrontation and tries to avoid it at all costs by deflecting tense situations with jokes and forms of self-deprecating humor.
At thirty-two he's had a string of long term relationships with different women. He's the known father two at least two children, though he doesn't do a lot of active parenting. Z'ian is a kind but mostly absentee and awkward sort of man when it comes to younger children. His kids don't suffer from it as they're raised primarily by their mothers in the lower caverns with the rest of the weyrbrats. He visits them sometimes.
He's walked a fine line of neutrality with most things, keeping his mouth shut about exiles, convicts and other strange introductions of people that have occurred. Like many however he's been dismayed by the recent loss of their Weyrwoman and the subsequent stepping down of K'del. A man that's usually light hearted and relaxed he's had a hard time coping with the idea of two acting Weyrwomen with little experience and he's not so sure about this B'sil guy either.
Z'ian has shown himself to be a talented mature rider with a good head on his shoulders. Amongst the lower caverns he's a favorite "contender" for the flight when it happens. How much of that is all in the head of wishful onlookers and people who like to waste their marks is up for debate. He certainly hasn't made any declarations one way or the other.
