Name: Logan Gendrysson
Age: 23 (Autumn)
Sexuality: Asexual
Attitude: Reckless, impatient, judgmental, sympathetic, considerate, finicky, protective, tenacious, pragmatic, acquiescent.
Logan has a bad habit of rushing into things without thinking about them properly. He tends to jump at things that may excite him, or make decisions without fully considering the consequences. This can often lead Logan into difficult situations where he must deal with any repercussions that may occur because of his actions. Logan has a habit of being quite impatient and will often take matters into his own hands. He is often been described as running at things like a herdbeast at a gate, acting now and thinking later. Logan becomes frustrated when things don't happen fast enough, often causing him to act out and making matters worse. However, this does not mean that Logan does not regret what might occur thereafter. After making rash decisions, Logan tends to feel stupid or like an idiot for not thinking clearly. Despite this, Logan still ends up in these kinds of situations as if he cannot remember that he must use his brain and think about everything differently. Logan is very intelligent when it comes to scrolls or healing, but when it comes to day to day things; he is often at a loss. Even though he is quite smart and has a good memory, Logan often feels stupid because of the little mistakes that he makes in everyday life, which often brings him down on himself which causes him to feel inadequate.
Despite being very open to different things such as the sport dragons and nationalities, Logan can be very judgemental at times. He often judges a person from their appearance and mannerisms, and finds it difficult to associate that person with anything else once his vision of them has been embedded in his mind. Due to Logan’ss ability to retain information, he never lets anything slip past him. If a friend makes a mistake or acts up around him, Logan will never forgive and will definitely never forget. Even if said person starts to act kindly towards him, Logan cannot help but associate that person with how they treated him previously and finds it difficult to talk to him as if nothing happened. Logan finds it hard to let go of certain facts, and if someone has wronged him, he cannot help but keep thinking about it when that person crosses his mind. He has difficultly forgiving when it comes to problematic situations, and he does not know whether this is a good or bad trait to have. He has a habit of holding grudges when anyone else would forgive and move on.
Tending to be able to relate to other people’s problems, Logan will always try his best to stand by his friends until the end. He takes pride in his ability to give advice and be there for his friends, even if he has never been in at least half of the situations that his friends have. Sometimes, Logan can care too much; to the point of endangering his own mental stability. His stubbornness and compassion can often overrun any sense of his own dignity, causing him to try too hard to help those that are close to him. In some cases, this can often be a great sacrifice to his own happiness as one can imagine, and can be quite emotionally draining. Sometimes Logan has to separate himself from his friend’s problems so that he can focus on not getting too involved. However, this does not change the fact that Logan is very kind and considerate at heart. Even if he has never experienced something before, Logan is quite understanding and tries to relate as much as he can. Logan often pretends to be in other people’s shoes and tries to imagine what he would do in such a situation.
When it comes to what he likes and dislikes, Logan can unfortunately be very fussy. Logan has never liked eating fruit and seldom eats vegetables, his favourite meal being meat rolls which are not very healthy at all. His fussiness also extends to what he likes and dislikes outside of what can be ingested, including who he likes to hang around and what he likes and does not like to do. Logan is very choosy when it comes to his clothes, never wearing anything that he does not want to or feel comfortable in. Of course, there are people who are pickier that he is, but Logan is definitely up there. Logan is far from easy-going, jumping at the slightest movements in the corner of his eyes. His friends take great joy in spooking him, often resulting in Logan punching said friends on the arm once he realises what has happened. Despite his shyness, Logan often becomes protective of those close to him. He is not the type of man to jump into a fist fight, but he will protect and look after those that he cares about in more subtle ways such as making sure they have eaten, among other things.
Depending on the situation, Logan can be very tenacious and persistent with certain things. He seldom back down from an argument and tends to fight for what he believes in even if it ruins friendships. Now, this does not mean that Logan is always right - everyone makes mistakes - and Logan knows this. However, he also believes that his way is the right way, even if this is not the case. When Logan knows that he is wrong, he has difficulty admitting it and will continue to argue even if it is a lost cause. He doe not like apologising after he has made a mistake, as it makes him feel like more of an idiot than he already does. His stubbornness cannot be matched in many cases, but is often beaten due to his slight sensitivity. Like everyone, Logan has his soft spots and can be quite hurt if the right words are used against him. Despite his stubbornness, Logan can be manipulated quite easily. The worst part about this is that Logan knows that he can be gullible at times, but so far has been able to do nothing to boost his confidence and stop this from happening. Logan tries to be strong and not let other people get to him, but sometimes just the right words are spoken that hit home.
Along with his stubborn streak, Logan is quite pessimistic which has never been a good thing. He occasionally finds it difficult to find hope when things become tough. In his own mind, hope in certain situations can seem very unlikely, so why should he even bother getting his hopes up if he will just be pushed back down again? It is often better to stop what he is trying to do before getting hurt if he can see that it is hopeless in the first place. More often than not, Logan is told to smile more. he has never been the type of person that is happily bouncing off the walls and smiling at every little thing that happens in the day. No, he is more reasonable and practical. Why should Logan smile when there is no reason for him to do so? On top of this, Logan has a habit of giving in to peer pressure. his stubbornness is only good when he is feeling confident and with people that he is familiar with, otherwise he will remain quiet. Even though Logan may disagree with something, often he is too shy to say anything due to the fear of being yelled at. With close friends of course, things are different, but with people who are higher ranked than himself it is a lot more difficult for him to speak his mind. It may be a matter of respect, or it may be because this young man does not like confrontation.
Race: Human
Appearance: Handsome is a word often used to describe young Logan, although not in the rugged sense. Logan’s cheekbones are quite high, only adding to his elven like appearance, while his nose is quite soft and is flat on top going down to the tip at a nice angle. Logan generally keeps his angular face well shaven, although occasionally he allows light stubble to grow if he cannot be bothered shaving. The most striking feature of Logan is definitely his bright blue/grey eyes which have golden rims around the pupils. From a distance his eyes are often mistaken for being a dull shade of grey. Logan tends to wear his short, thick mousy brown in a wavy mess atop his head, with his scalp shaved quite short on the sides and back. Sometimes Logan allows the hair on top to grow out, sporting somewhat of a side fringe, but he finds it to only get in the way and trip it short again. The hair at the very top of his head is kept at a respectable one or two inches in length.
Logan’s skin is quite fair, blemished by various light freckling along his cheeks, nose and darker freckling down his arms due to the time spent in the sun. Ever since Logan was a child, he had always been light on his feet. He was a late bloomer and was quite short compared to his friends, able to duck in and out of crowds with ease and hide in places many could not reach. Logan is lithe and quite lean despite his new found height; although he can no longer fit into tight spaces. However, he has retained his speed and agility which can be useful at times. From a distance he can appear to be quite lanky due to the type of clothes that he chooses to wear, although upon closer inspection he has a healthy amount of fat on him. Logan is by no means fat, but he is not skeletal either. His eyelashes and eyebrows are quite dark; a lot darker than the hair on top of his head. Years of training as a dragonrider has riddled his body with muscles. Although Logan is not a hulking terror to behold, this young man can still hold his own in a fight. Since being bonded to a dragon for so long, Logan now has quite an elven appearance to him, including a somewhat ethereal face and pointed ears.
Clothing wise, Logan tends to wear whatever he feels like on that particular day. He has always had a liking for boots of any kind and if he is not wearing him, then he is often bare footed. Even as a young child, Logan has had a great dislike for shorts, and will wear long pants even when the weather is too hot for them. He has a very faint birth mark on the inside of his right calf, but this is barely visible and only if you were to look very carefully and knew what to look for. Logan often wears short and long sleeved shirts, although he is quite partial towards vests. He will take any and every opportunity to wear a vest over a long sleeved shirt, often choosing to wear a white shirt with a grey vest. His clothes come in various shades of grey and black, along with white and some browns and reds mixed in between. Logan does not care much for what colours he wears, although he would never be seen in bright colours. When it comes to armour, Logan would rather wear a mix of chainmail and cloth with some leather mixed in between.
Allegiance: Dragonriders
Weapons: Garjzla – gold rider’s sword; magic.
Other Info: Open to plots about his unknown parentage, capture, changing sides, torture, love etc.
History: As a baby, Logan was dumped on the door step of an old orphanage wrapped up in blankets in the city of Teirm. The only thing that was with the baby was a small piece of parchment that read Logan. Even to this day, no one knows who Logan’s parents are or were, but they obviously did not want him. It was an old, run down orphanage which was quickly running out of money and people willing to stay and help care for the children. Due to this difficult state, the children were set to work, helping around the orphanage where they could. It was not a horrible place to live, and was definitely better than living on the streets. Even as a child, Logan had difficulty getting along with the other kids. He had always been different, and even in such a miserable setting, things were no different. Logan hated the orphanage, but he had nowhere else to go, nor did he know anyone outside of the building.
At the age of eight and a half, Logan was eventually adopted out to a young couple – a fisherman by the name of Gendry and his wife, Tessa. At first, it seemed like Logan was going home to a happy family, and things were finally looking up to him. However, he was wrong. Very wrong. The couple were slave traders. Although slave trading had gone downhill since the riders return, they still managed to practice their trade in secret. Logan was sold to a new master. The boy was tortured just for fun, along with working long hours and not being given enough food or water. For years, Logan worked. He was sold around, used, his morale utterly destroyed. However, there was nothing that he could do to stop it. All he could do was work for whoever he was sold to next and hope that he was not killed. Logan learned to keep his head low and do as he was told, especially not to expect anything better. Suicidal thoughts often crossed the young man’s mind, but he soon grew used to such a rough life.
Honestly, it was no surprise when the dragonriders found out about this underground slave trade, and abolished it. Logan did not quite know the details, he just knew that he was free. It was not very beneficial for him however, since he was raised in an orphanage and did not know anyone outside those he had met who were slaves, just like himself. Scars threaded across his back from beatings and whippings that would most likely never heal. Not only that, but he frequently had to fight in fighting pits. Luckily, he had not been killed - yet. Logan had turned into a wary person, unable to trust easily due to his dark past. The dragonriders were not about to let the slaves waste away, putting their efforts in so that they would have food, shelter, and learn to make a living on their own. To Logan’s surprise, he was one of the few that were chosen to be taken back to New Doru Arabea where he able to stand in front of several eggs. The riders seemed to think that he had a resilient spirit, and what they thought seemed to be true.
A young, male dragon hatched from a smooth, golden egg. Logan had reached out with his left hand to stroke the dragon on the top of his head. A golden light shone, searing his palm with the mark of the dragonriders. And thus, the bond was formed. Logan was a dragonrider. It was finally time for him to start the next chapter of his life, and to stop looking back on the terrible things that he had endured. The young man seldom spoke of his past, and not many people know where he came from or what he had been through. Logan was a dragonrider now, he had a sworn duty to the land of Alegaesia. There was a war coming, and Logan wanted to do his best to help, and hopefully destroy those that betrayed and ruined his young life. Logan has a habit of holding grudges, and this young man never forgets a face. One day, he will get back at those that had hurt him. For now, he will train. After 20 years, it seemed that his life was finally starting to look up. Hopefully it would not come crashing down again.
Role Play Sample: His lips were cracked from dehydration as he looked up from the earth clad cell. Logan’s hands were bound, and the young man could barely see what was happening in the dim light.
“Come on, you are free,” a voice rang out, and it took Logan a few moments to understand what had been said. A young woman rushed over to him. No, an elf. She used magic of some kind to destroy the shackles that bound his wrists and help him gently to his feet.
“What..?” Logan managed to say, licking his lips as he trembled slightly, trying to gain his footing on the uneven ground.
“We’ve captured all the traders. You are free men now. Please, come with me,” the lady elf said with a warm smile, raising her hand to lead Logan away from this hell. As Logan thought back, he thought he could remember hearing fighting earlier. However, the young man had tried his best to block the sound out.
