Height and Build: 6'0, thin
Appearance: Cyndell is tall and slender, and rarely seems to gain weight no matter how much he eats. He moves with an almost unnerving grace, and he has a penchant for sneaking up on people, intentionally or not, because he tends to walk so quietly. He can also sit perfectly still for long periods of time, barely moving. His posture tends to be straight and alert, no slouching here. He loves being in the sun, so he usually wears dark clothing that helps absorb the heat.
Cyndell's back, chest, and arms are spotted with dark green and brown snake scales. His tail is thin and covered with green scales. The scales moult and are replaced regularly. The rest of his body is pale human skin. His teeth are normal except for the enlarged, sharp canines. Cyndell's eyes are a bright, piercing blue. His eyesight is the same as a human, but in addition to eyelids, he has a clear membrane that can come over the eyes, which allows him to go long periods without blinking. He doesn't have a forked tongue, but he does like to experience the world by tasting, which seem a bit...odd...to people who aren't used to it.
Personality:
- Socially inept- Cyndell is a little awkward, and doesn't always know how to act around people. He is perceptive about many things, but human behavior is not one of them.
- Cold- He can seem distant and uncaring, partly because he rarely reacts to anything with a lot of emotion.
- Introverted- Cyndell is not necessarily unfriendly, but he needs a lot of alone time.
- Cyndell has a morbid sense of humor, and often finds strange things funny.
- Observant- Cyndell likes to just sit back and watch the world around him.
- Nosy- Cyndell is curious about everything and has been known to ask too many questions.
- He enjoys puzzles and riddles, and could spend hours working out a challenge.
- Cyndell is not particularly ambitious. If anything, he prefers to influence the leaders, rather than being a leader himself.
- Temper- Cyndell is usually calm and quiet, but if something does anger him, he explodes very quickly.
- Regarding his sexuality, Cyndell does not feel sexual attraction unless he gets emotionally close to a person first.
- He also tends to be oblivious about romance, and if someone likes him in that way, they need to be obvious about it.
- He is very sensitive to heat and light, and hates to be cold. Being in a cold, dark space usually puts him to sleep.
History: Cyndell was born into a small trader caravan made up mostly of reptilian Tailed folks. He is an only child, but grew up with several other children of around the same age. He spent his childhood traveling all around Pern. He became aware of the fact that his family was not respected by most Holders, because they were viewed as holdless.
When he was 16, he wanted to explore more on his own. He left the caravan for a time, but found life alone even more difficult. Some Holds would turn him away, refusing to give him a place for the night. He had just recently returned to the caravan when a Search dragon spotted them on sweep.
Candidacy Opinions: Cyndell never would have expected to be chosen, but once he was Searched, he jumped at the chance to be a candidate. It seems like a better life with more stability, and he is fascinated by the dragons.
Candidate's Preferred Color: Any color. Cyndell genuinely has no opinions on the colors, and just wants any dragon at all. However, he would prefer a diurnal dragon since he needs to be out in the sun.
Your Preferred Color: A female would be fun, I like cross-Impressions. I'm fine with any color, though.
Injury: If you want to maul him, go ahead! ;D Permanent scars are fine. Just don't remove any limbs or kill him.
