He served in Taiga wing before becoming an AWLM. He stayed stints at Telgar Weyr and Fort Weyr in turn 34-35. Telavi is his long-time girlfriend, on and off since weyrlinghood and more settledly so since turn 35. After the last batch of weyrlings graduated, he's started riding with Snowdrift Wing, spending much of his time with the Weyr's Smiths.

Description

Broad of shoulder, and strong of jaw, this young man of about 17 turns old still has traces of baby fat clinging to his otherwise muscular form. He stands about five foot, eleven inches tall and besides his rather remarkable bone structure, he's just another face in a crowd. Dusky tan skin covers his frame, topped by straight, dark chestnut locks. Though a few shorter locks flop haphazardly from the top of his broad brow, most of his hair is contained by a tan thong as it hangs down his back to reach the bottoms of his shoulder blades. Arched brows peak over evenly-set warm brown eyes. His nose is proportionate, though slightly aquiline. Thin but shapely pale pink lips almost always seem to wear the ghost of a smile, and a slight crinkle in his cheeks suggest hidden dimples.

Clearly dressed more for function than fashion, K'zin has donned a pair of khaki hide pants that look to be the kind lined with something more forgiving to bare skin. A pair of thick, worn, fur-lined brown wher-hide boots are on his feet. Warmth seems to be the aim of his torso attire, too. At least three layers can clearly be seen, starting with a grungy ecru undershirt peeking out from the opening in his grey shirt and topped with a brown vest. When outdoors, a fur-lined overcoat and red knit scarf, hat, and mittens is part of his standard attire.

Family

Zianarius (Dad)

Relationship: Father
Rank: Master MineCrafter
Specialty: Mining Methods
Posting: MineCraft Hall
Age: K'zin's+45 turns
Turnday: Day 3, Month 3
PB: Derek Jacobi
Summary: A no-nonsense sort of family man. He doesn't tolerate much in the way of jokes and 'fun', but none could argue that he cared well for his family. He was at High Reaches Weyr from Turn 21-25, but has spent most of his older life at the Hall raising his many children as a more or less single father, despite being still very much in love with his wife, Wakina. Died in turn 33.

Zakari (Zak)

Relationship: Older brother
Birth order: First-born
Family Designation: The oldest
Rank: Journeyman MineCrafter
Specialty: Mining Methods
Posting: Tillek Hold
Age: K'zin's+8 turns
Turnday: Day 7, month 6
PB: Rick Mora
Summary: Serious, studious, and quiet, Zakari was everything his father could hope for. He worked hard and played little. He's handfasted to Journeywoman SeaCrafter Gvanna and has one son, Zakavanri.

Nazius (Naz)

Relationship: Older brother
Birth order: Third-born
Family Designation: The sneaky one
Rank: Journeyman Minecrafter
Specialty: Mining methods
Posting: MineCraft Hall
Age: K'zin's+4 turns
Turnday: Day 19, Month 5
PB: Todd Thawley
Summary: While Waki had the distinct 'pleasure' of being 'the clown' of the family, Naz was the sneak and equally obnoxious in his own way. Fairly clever, he put those talents to little use. Things have a tendency to go missing when he's around and he's been known to provoke a situation from bad to worse as long as it's not him that stand to get in trouble.

Wakinziana (Kinzi)

Relationship: Younger sister
Birth order: Sixth-born
Family Designation: The girl
Rank: Apprentice Weaver
Specialty: Undeclared
Posting: Ista Hold
Age: K'zin's-2 turns
Turnday: Day 1, month 1
PB: Devery Jacobs
Summary: Though the family thinks of Kinzi as the sweet, angel of a girl that she was growing up, teenage Kinzi has developed quite a wild streak with a passion for nice clothes and is busy making all kinds of new, fancy friends. She, like her mother, is charismatic, charming, and witty.

Wakina (Mom)

Relationship: Mother
Rank: Master MineCrafter
Specialty: Precious Gems
Posting: MineCraft Hall
Age: K'zin's+30 turns
Turnday: Day 29, Month 2
PB: Kimberly Guerrero
Summary: Wakina is jovial, boisterous, and charismatic. She's a world traveler, posted all over Pern in her Journeying turns. She rarely speaks of home or family, but will drink, play cards, or otherwise entertain with stories of adventure and travel till the wee hours if you catch her at the right time. She lived at High Reaches Weyr from turn 21 to turn 25. If your character would have known her, feel free to ask me for more details!

Kinarius (Kina)

Relationship: Older brother
Birth order: Second-born
Family Designation: The smart one
Rank: Journeyman Minecrafter
Specialty: Grading
Posting: Bitra Hold
Age: K'zin's+6 turns
Turnday: Day 15, Month 11
PB: Darrell Dennis
Summary: Kina is a born book-worm and learned quickly the fine art of becoming even smarter than he naturally was. Socially inept, some can hardly believe that he's a father. There's no wife though, so the child is seldom included in family gatherings.

Akazi (Kazi)

Relationship: Older brother
Birth order: Fourth-born
Family Designation: The pretty one
Rank: Journeyman MineCrafter
Specialty: Grading
Posting: Crom Hold
Age: K'zin's+2 turns
Turnday: Day 5, month 8
PB: Tyler Christopher
Summary: Good looking and knows it. Kazi has used his looks and charm to get by, despite his father's stern warnings that one day his looks will fade and he'll need to actually know something about MineCrafting to excel. He's less concerned with his career, though he recently walked tables, than he is with exploring all the world has to offer, as curious about most things as his mother. (K'zin's least favorite brother.)

Wazan (Waz)

Relationship: Younger brother
Birth order: Seventh-(and last)-born
Family Designation: The rebel
Rank: Apprentice BeastCrafter
Specialty: Undecided
Posting: BeastCraft Hall
Age: K'zin's-4 turns
Turnday: Day 10, month 7
PB: Ryan Cunningham
Summary: Wazan was still a child the last time K'zin saw him (barely ten turns old). He's begun to grow up into a bit of smart-ass with a temper, so his father wasn't as angry as he might otherwise have been (not after three children deviated from the preordained path of MineCrafting that the first four seemed happy enough to follow) when the lad apprenticed to the BeastCraft and headed off to the Hall. He's the baby, so he's much beloved by all, but there are far fewer headaches for them to deal with when he's at such a distance.

Miscellaneous Tidbits

K'zin

K'zin never had the normal kinds of pets growing up. Coming from a fairly prolific family of MineCrafters, he had Pet Rocks; no one's ever explained to him that's not normal.
Known by some but not most, K'zin has drawn just about every girl he's met since he was fourteen or so naked. He's a good artist, with sketches that look similar to this artist's skill level. He takes a familiar face and draws an approximation of what their body might look like based on their frame and women he's seen (not stared at) in the bathing caverns.
Known (by a select few) turn offs (some of which creep him out): stuffed animals, waxy cheese, uncles in the bathes, weird toes, sleet, crying babies, and babydolls.

Rasavyth

The bugs in Rasavyth's mind are drawn from Stargate's Replicators, learning about everything around them and incorporating that which makes them stronger/better/smarter into their make-up and mimicking things with an uncanny aptitude for detail.
Rasavyth hasn't shown any of his original-concept tendencies toward betrayal. He is almost always friendly, inviting, and receptive. True, there is that niggling "something not right in the back of the mind but can't put your finger on it", but other than that, he's your average, friendly, chatty, clever, sympathetic dragon. He's prone to extremely subtle manipulations of others, but not things he could be linked to directly. Think of him like the sweet, kind uncle that's smart enough to give you advice but that you'd never want to be alone in a room with, even though you couldn't say why.
