Z'ian
Contents
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.
WYSK
Z'ian impressed at High Reaches Weyr in Turn 15.
He's the father to two sons from a previous weyrmate.
He's been largely against the tradition breaking that's occurred in the wake of the subsequent goldflights.
Following the exposure of the traitors N'mos and S'varis, Z'ian found himself appointed by H'kon to the Wingleadership of Boreal. This would be the second wing change in approximately a turn.
History
Originally Zachrian of High Reaches Hold, he was born the youngest son to two lower class members of the hold. His mother worked as a seamstress and his father at a variety of odd jobs around the hold itself. They never had a lot of anything but they never went without food, clothes, etc... That said, Zachrian and his brothers were mommas boys, all three of them. She provided the emotional support and lessons on how to be a good person. His father, emotionally distant but intelligent and capable provided the lessons on how not to be "a damn idiot".
His two brothers managed to find themselves a place in the world, one entering the smithcraft and the other a bit more enterprising, hitched a ship ride down south to take advantage of some trading opportunities. Zachrian spent the later portion of his teen years relatively aimless until a rider from High Reaches arrived at the hold.
Following being searched, he impressed to bronze Tsanth and became known as Z'ian. Since then 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. 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.
At thirty-two he's had a string of long term relationships with different women. He's the known father to 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 mother in the lower caverns with the rest of the weyrbrats. He visits them when it's important to but otherwise keeps out of the way.
In the past he's kept his mouth and his nose out of any business that didn't involve him directly. Like many however he was dismayed by the recent loss of their Weyrwoman and the subsequent stepping down of K'del. In the months since, he'd slowly begun to form a more firm opinion on the delicate political balance of High Reaches.
In Hraedhyth's flight, there were witnesses who would swear that his bronze was clearing a path through the chasers. A path that K'del's Cadejoth followed, almost as if he knew that it was going to be there. That alone has brought on some stares, but not much more than his falling in with the group of riders who aren't recognizing the Weyrleadership of Taikrin or H'kon. While he's yet to do anything drastic, Z'ian is at the least a sympathizer that's currently passively resisting the state of affairs.
Relationships
Aishani: The people judging you the most are the ones that have never had a real secret to hide or are just plain hypocrites.
Azaylia: You're stronger than you think you are.
Barnabas: Definitely a little crazy, but I get the feeling there's something else there. I can't help but like him, he's a good time.
H'kon: I'm sorry about what's happening to you now, with the rumors.
Jo: You're more than my friend. But it's so much more complicated than that, isn't it?
K'del: I don't know.
Taikrin: Well, you're the Weyrleader now.
Vienne: You're on my side now, I'm glad to have you. I think we're going to work well together.
Soundtrack
Last Mistake - Augustana
Hiding in the faces of people left behind,
In your soul and in my mind, in the ground,
Living in the memories of the years that pass us by,
Where our demons go to die, in the ground.
