Yukaru
Played By: Mya
Character Name: Yukaru
Pronunciation: yue-KAR-oo
Character Type: Brat
Rank: Weyrbrat
Political Alignment: Establishment
Age: 6
Gender: Male
Sexual Preference: Asexual (will become either homosexual or bisexual)
Appearance:
His hair, with the blackish-nutmeg color and mouth were inherited from Y'rov, that would've included his complexion except Yukaru avoided turning out *that* pale. There are even freckles across his shoulders. That was fine, what frustrated him is the constant reminder from the older Crecheworkers that he's smaller than his father was. Of course there are numerous more Turns before anyone can start guessing what height he might reach, but one parent's 6' 3 and
the other a mere 5' 1, a worrisome thing for a Weyrborn Fortian male. From his mother he got his nose, cheekbone height, and more slender chin. Both parents contributed to his dark, sapphire blue eyes.
Personality:
Calm and decisive, he won't come across as someone that'll carry a grudge, that remains the case until you've seen him
around those who've turned his stomach somehow. He ignores them, he won't acknowledge their existence unless there it becomes required he address them. During those instances he'll be terse and direct an angered sarcasm their direction, leaving the impression if they answer him wrong he'll continue his sulking, as adults call it. Yukaru sees
no reason he should deal with annoyances over something that isn't urgent. The crecheworkers become upset if he treated them so cold for other occasion making it too much of bother. That logic prevents him from being the calm figurehead he makes himself out as to those he can stand being around. He, however, inherited his father's dislike for
Southerns as well as inherited a rather strong sense of tradition that'll keep him from wanting to be around female blue or greenriders in the future.
Birthplace: Fort Weyr
Parents: Yureov (now Y'rov), Karne
Birthday: 16t.8m.16d
History:
His mum came from Igen Weyr, because she was almost 25 she transferred knowing that Fort'd been without a gold egg for longer than the other Weyrs. During her 1st goldflight she disappeared into a storeroom with Yureov, a Candidate that'd Impress brown several Turns later, a union which produced Yukaru. Yukaru, though Karne's firstborn, was the second son for Yureov. That second son status didn't turn out to mean much considering that his father still visited
him as much as he visited his older half-brother. When Y'rov Impressed those visits ended for about 9 months and afterward were no more than twice a sevenday. Even then Yukaru can't remember a moment where he never know his Fort Weyr family, or about his family given he never met some of his younger half-siblings.
When the earthquake destroyed Southern Weyr and survivors came to Fort, Yukaru was rather frustrated they'd taint the place. Not that he could bring himself to mention it outloud given the fact he pitied them too for having gone through what happened to Southern. He vowed to hope that when he can join Candidacy there'd not be so many
Southern children joining at the same time. In the most recent month he acquired a 5 month old kitten whom he named Caspurra. The feline is around him a lot even though Creche rules made it necessary that his parents give it a home instead.
~~Pet~~
Pet Name: Caspurra
Pet Species: Feline
Gender: Female
Appearance:
She's somewhat big-boned once compared against other domestic feline, however, she won't match those among her wild relatives. Even then she is impressive with grey, medium-length fur and tabby stripes so dark they're almost a shimmering black coloration. Her chin, around her feline lips, looks a dirty white but as it continues further down
under her chin it turns pure white...just like the white toes on her paws.
Personality:
As far as Yukaru can figure Caspurra doesn't act like she's complete feline. What other feline climbs onto someone's shoulder about 50% of the time, their head another 20%, and spent the remaining 30% either dashing from one end of the room to another or eating. There've been times where Yukaru hunched over some toy...and Caspurra was suddenly
hanging over his shoulder watching it. She even tried helping him with it, the keyword being tried since she more just grabbed for the thing he was so intent over moving about. No quill will be safe during lessons, no toy without an obstacle. It can be really cute up until the point where the person actually has to move. So far there's been no pattern to the times when Caspurra'll cooperate and leap down, otherwise she hangs on with her claws leaving some scratches on the person's shoulder.
Had that been the only oddity Yukaru might've shrugged it off. No, this feline ignores even the most basic rule Yukaru knew about felines. Felines *hate* water... Or not... Caspurra loves to chase the waves as the recede from the from shore. She wants to know where it goes, she wants to *know*! At least no one can say she didn't inherit a feline's curiosity.
