Deceased: Died in Selenitas Earthquake Plot
Humans:
Name: Notohamiprodjo (Noto for short)
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Bisexual
Rank: Candidate
Physical Appearance: Tall, dark and handsome immediately come to mind when a person first meets Notohamiprodjo. His skin is a dark olive color and despite constantly being outside, remains smooth and unweathered. It is however, not completely perfect. Various scars adorn his body, remnants of past knife fights against the other holder children.
His face is rather Asiatic in appearance with slanted dark brown eyes and a rather flat nose. Rather than detract from his appearance, he appears somewhat more approachable, adding to his attractiveness. His lips are full, willing to smile at a moment’s notice or to turn into a scowl of rage. Thick black hair is kept in a simple bowl cut, long enough to hang just over the tops of his ears but short enough so that his vision remains clear.
Of course, it is always the body that win women over. Lean and well-muscled, Notohamiprodjo is every inch the protector that women dream of. Every muscle is well-defined and his entire body is clearly kept in good shape from many hours spent doing various activities. Add that to his refusal to eat anything that looks remotely unhealthy and you have the epitome of health.
Personality: Notohamiprodjo, while physically lovely, has a few deformities personality-wise. He was raised with the belief that it was men who had the real power and as such, cannot stand women who even so much as think that they have any authority. He would never go so far as to physical beat or harm a girl, but he will not take orders from them, not even the Weyrwoman, for in his lack of education, he was led to believe that it is actually the Weyrleaders who do all the real work.
Despite his chauvinistic tendencies, Noto is on the whole a rather well behaved man. His family not being particularly wealthy, he has no big-headed ideas of his own self-importance and can be quite humble when it comes to his own accomplishments. He’ll do his share of the work and abhors laziness in others so much so that he’s not afraid to let out a verbal lashing if need be.
He has a special fondness for young children, mostly due to the fact that he feels guilty for the death of his younger brother. He doesn’t much like to talk about it, but occasionally, he is still racked by nightmares of the event that occurred seven turns ago.
History: Notohamiprodjo grew up in one of the smaller holds in the southern continent. His family was rather small, for his mother was an older woman and did not start bearing children until later in life. His parents, being refugees from the north, raised him much as they had been raised, imparting a few of the less desirable traits of northern folk. Amongst those was a general concept that women weren't worth much more than child-bearers or bedmates.
He was always an outgoing child, a leader of sorts. He and the other boys would play various games, and Noto’s younger brother, wanting to join in, would often tag along. He was constantly turned away, for which Noto now feels extreme guilt. Noto was in the middle of one of his various games when the news came in the form of a young girl. His brother was dead, had fallen to his death.
While his mother grieved freely, he had been taught that real men, tough and strong men, didn’t let their sorrows show, and so he bottled it deep inside. He busied himself in the most mundane of things, working himself to the bone so that his sleep would be so deep he wouldn’t be able to dream.
He carried on like this for turns, never letting anyone know how much it hurt him or how much he blamed himself for it. When the searchdragon came, he saw it as an escape and accepted the search, hoping that leaving his home would give him some relief from what has plagued him.
