Deceased: Died in Selenitas Earthquake Plot
Humans:
Name: Mihkal
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Hetero
Rank: Dragon Candidate
Physical Appearance: Mihkal stands at 6'1. He's toned and yet doesn't have that 'bulky' neither 'wiry' look to him. He's definitely got 'handsome' down but there is something very 'pretty' about his kind of handsomeness. Straight sandy blond hair highlighted by much lighter blond frames his face. His eyes are a lovely sky blue with slightly darker grey-blue surrounding the rims. His lips are full for a male with that kind of 'kissable' look to them that some girls have. A pale complexion which seems to stay fair although he spends most of his time outdoors seems to add to the look that has both men and women, straight or no, noticing. It could be said that Mihkal is a 'pretty boy' and often he is the target of homosexual men. Usually due to his appearance and attitude many think he is one himself. He wears a silver chain around his neck but other than that nothing spectacular.
Personality: Mihkal is T'lor's cousin but besides the family tie nothing is similar about the two. Mihkal doesn't flirt, for starters. He treats men and women the same and he isn't much of a practical joker like his cousin, either. He's very calm and generally quieter, not being one to speak out in large groups but perfectly content to talk to his closer friends--even if he's more of a listener. He's respectful to everyone and yet always seems distant. It's obvious he has had one or two friends growing up rather than many. He's not so great around strangers and while he's civil with everyone he seems more of a loner to most.
When it comes to women Mihkal seems to just treat them like men. It's like he is oblivious to their interests in him or their flirtations, should that be the case. He comes off as rather naive really, and he is sort of the kind one would call 'brooding' and 'dark and mysterious'. He seems to not know he's attractive or if he does his attitude says that it really doesn't make a difference to him. Some think he's a snob because his lack of response to advances. He's just really not interested in that sort of thing, nothing like T'lor at all. He is a very committed person but he has trouble talking about himself. He's happiest with something to do and seems quite content to do nothing if 'nothing' is what there is to do! He's really a thinker, often staring off at the skies or into the distance. He doesn't speak before thinking and generally he won't speak up unless he has something worthwhile to say. If it needs saying? It gets said.
In a room full of people he'd be the one everyone would be looking at curiously. It's like he could be in that room full of people and act the same as if he were alone. Nothing seems to phase him even though he is a really empathic and emotional sort of guy. No one would know that though because he rarely smiles, he rarely laughs and he doesn't even frown. The most is a passive or serious look, or maybe a slight upturn of the mouth. It's rare for him to do more than that unless he finds something extremely funny or amusing or it's an extreme situation. He's rather a paradox in many ways.
Mihkal doesn't really have any set hobbies. He does a lot of things and really enjoys new experiences. He seems to live each day as if tomorrow doesn't matter and yesterday never existed. He's so quick to forgive and forget it's eerie. A person would have to do him serious wrong for him to hold it against them and even then it would be forgiven if it weren't direly serious. He's just so complacent and easygoing, not in the least the sort to complain or grumble. He has so many hidden qualities that hardly anyone ever sees. He seems able to just do whatever he's given to do. It's always best not to underestimate him because he's full of surprises. He really seems intelligent though and like the sort of person who would have your back and that you'd want to have at your back. He's very reliable and trustworthy and also loyal. Still he picks whom he chooses to associate with frequently very carefully. There are just certain types of people he'd rather be around than others. He doesn't like a lot of negative qualities even if he's civil to everyone. Such negative qualities include lying, conceit, boisterous and loud sorts or thieves and overly flirtatious persons, people with bad tempers and people who are overly emotional--he he finds that hard to deal with. He's really an oddity and no one ever feels they really completely and truly know him--but that's probably because he's never really let more than one or two in...
History: Mihkal is T'lor's younger cousin, whose parents were killed when a group of bandits attacked him and a couple of others who were guarding the caravan while others were off gathering food and hunting. Mihkal was with T'lor's family at the time, as the cousins were close up until that point. Mihkal was nine Turns old at the incident and he was never really the same outgoing boy after.
He grew quiet and distant from everyone and usually would have avoided people of T'lor's sort but he was the one person Mihkal confided in, the one person he felt free to talk to even though their personalities were night and day. They didn't hang out as much as they might have since Mihkal always kept himself busy with any work that needed to be done and T'lor, then Tahlor, was a flirt and liked to wander a lot. Mihkal hates bandits and thieves with a passion due to the murderers who killed his parents. No one found them and there were only three survivors out of eight who'd stayed to guard.
As Mihkal grew he and T'lor still talked but less and less frequently. T'lor grew interested in girls much more than his younger cousin was. T'lor liked to wander further and further while Mihkal was nervous about going off alone, for obvious reasons. Still they remained as close as Mihkal ever got to anyone. Mihkal didn't pick a job like the others. No, he did everything. No matter the task assigned he'd do it or learn how so that he could. He became a jack of all trades with skills such as cooking, crafting from wood, writing poetry and lyrics and making jewelery out of shells, wood and beads. There's a lot he can do and if it ever came down to it he would be able to use his skills to support himself in the do all end all.
Life continued like this until the caravan stopped over at Selenitas and his cousin heard there was a hatching. Mihkal was reluctant to see Tahlor go and yet he hadn't thought of standing himself. So a week after the caravan left he headed back for the Weyr himself, having no clue that his cousin Impressed whatsoever. What he'll do when he gets there is unknown, but being a candidate? Isn't that remiss.
