bio/history- Shanira was born in Southern Hold, where not much happened that disturbed her until her fifteenth birthday. She was Searched by Southern Weyr for a clutch, but she did not Impress. The weyrmen all told her that she just needed to wait for the right hatchling to find her. Going against their advice and her own longing to stay in the Weyr, she returned to Southern Hold. Two turns later, the riders at Southern recommended her as a candidate for the clutch that would result from the one of the two young queens' first mating flight, which was to happen very soon.

Name- D'ran

Age- 27

Gender- Male

Description- D'ran is tall and lean, but has muscle enough for his occupation. Unremarkable brown hair, clipped short, frames a square face. He has no freckles to mar his tan skin, which complements his dark brown eyes. He often wears stury work clothes or flying gear, but like all riders, he has seceral sets of well-made Gather finery.

Personality- He is a reliable young man who works well with and without supervision. He sometimes makes snap decisions, and he can handle the responsibilities of a wingsecond with ease. In spite of his responsibilities, D'ran finds time to be sociable and has developed a good sense of humor.

Rank- Wingleader

Weyr- Ieirne

Origin- Southern Weyr

History- D'ran, originally called Daran, was born in Southern Weyr to a female greenrider, but was given to the womenfolk of the Lower Caverns for raising almost immediately. While he saw his parents often, he never thought of them as "mother" or "father." The only thing he had in common with them was a love for dragons. To be a dragonrider was his one ambition. When he was finally allowed to stand as a candidate for a Hatching, at 13 Turns, he almost didn't Impress. When only three eggs remained unhatched, he began to give up hope. Then, all at once, two green dragons and a bronze burst from their shells. While he had tried to convince himself earlier that even a green would be fine, he knew it was untrue as he locked eyes with the little bronze. Impression had occurred. As a weyrling, he and his dragon had been outstanding. In their their Turn as regular wing riders, the two were promoted to wingsecond. When Ieirne Weyr was founded, D'ran followed its progress carefully, harboring a desire to one day be a part of the newest of Pern's Weyrs. Two Turns later, he was granted his wish and transferred to Ieirne Weyr, where his bronze Voliath flew the queen dragon Wreth in her first mating flight.

Dragon's Name/Color- Bronze Voliath

Dragon's Personality- Well suited to be D'ran's match, Voliath has a cool head and a strong sense of justice. He is a good leader, and can judge his own and D'ran's limits well, as well as the limits of the dragons and riders in his wing.
