Physical Appearance:Helian has a appearance that would fit more of a preadolescent skinny girl then a teenage guy. It is apparent from his body built that his still coming into his future height as he only stands at a pitiful 5'5. He has a athletic built however there is no real muscle on his body and there is very little definition. His body has no fat on it due to the hard life that his lived. The only real remarkable thing about Helian is his blue eyes that are the color of the ocean. While his hair is worn cut above his ears and is a normal brown. His hair has a few shades of lighter brown in it if one looks closely enough.
His not one to worry about his appearance and usually dresses in whatever is closest to him. The clothes of a candidate are pretty typical for what he wears with worn brown pants and a worn brown shirt. Helian's boots are in good shape considering all the time that his spent working. A lanky frame that is perfect for fitting into small places and for not getting noticed that easily.

This has lead to people taking advantage of him quite easily and breaking his heart on a few ocassions. His lost a few friends over the turns that he thought had his best interests at heart.
He believes that most people are good at heart and that life is worth preserving no matter what the consequences are. His life has always been taken care of by the adults and except for a few natural disasters much has shaken his life. When he gets nervous and can't think of course of action then he'll bite on his nails. His greatest fault would be his stubbornness and not willing to admit that his wrong. If it means that he will suffer physically or mentally for it then he would rather suffer then admit that his wrong.
A playful heart makes hims him want to pull pranks and again he doesn't think about the consequences. He usually pulls pranks on his closest friends and then he'll pretend that it didn't happen.

Helian doesn't think about his small size and won't let it stop him from defending others. The young man will die for his closest friends and has ended up in the infirmary on numerous occasions because his defended them.
History:
Helian was born to Alome a lower caverns work and D'sln a brown rider as a result of D'sln loosing a mating flight. He grew up raised in a unusual situation for a weyrbread child with both his parents taking a active role in his life. The early turns we're spent down in the creche with the other children and helping his mother prepare meals. When his father did have extra time then he would spent time with Helian. His father was not one to be with many women and Helian would be his only son. Helian would have two younger sisters who we're by another lower caverns woman. He'd little to do with them and rarely spoke to them except for in passing. A terrible illness caught his mother off guard when she'd been pushing herself too hard and she died. It was a terrible loss that caused Helian to cling more to his father who tried to be around more. In his early turns it was normal for him to end up in the infirmary for numerous fights defending his friends and as a result has a few scars on his body. The greatest scar is on left side from the neck to shoulder where a older boy pulled a knife on his. In the fight the knife got dragged from his neck to the shoulder and almost killed him. He was in the infirmary for months and it was after that his father tried to watch him more. His father couldn't always be there and this lead to Helian sneaking off to get into trouble.
Helian was eight he saw Millieth rise and hatch a golden queen egg that was named Nitrath impressed to Caden and made Helian want a dragon no matter what. He saw less of his father at the age of nine because the patrols we're increased. His father would be gone for days at a time and he ended up spending more time helping the lower caverns women out. It felt natural after his mother's passing to help the women down there out. Helian felt as if helping them out was honoring his mother's memory. In that turn the Selentias Weyr found out about Burimyu weyr which caused his father to be gone even more often. The same turn would see the death of his youngest sister who had gotten terrible ill with a fever.
A young life took a drastic turn when only at the age of ten the original Selentias Weyr was destroyed by a earthquake and Burimyu offered them assistance. The two weyrs merged and Helian has to move to the New Selentias Weyr where Millieth's clutch hatched. His fascination with dragons deepened and the excitement with each clutch because he was getting closer to standing himself. D'sln personally took Helian to the New Weyr to make sure that his son is safe. Helian's life was never boring in Selentias mostly due to the unsteadiness of the political landscape. His first event of that turn was when Milleth's clutch of eight hatched. The young boy was excited because the next turn he'd be old enough to stand for impression. It was every child's dream in the weyr especially one who had a dragon rider parent to impress. D'sln never pushed his son to impress however he did give his life a hero glory to it. He tried to show that his life was one of adventure and to never be alone when you had a dragon. D'sln was one of the Selentias Riders to join Benden and fly under the colors to battle border skirmishes. Helian's sleep grew more restless during this time because Helian was worried about loosing his father.
The Great War came to an end when Helian was only twelve turns old and he stood for the first time for Gold Milleth's clutch. She'd only laid ten eggs and it was expected of him being D'sln's son to impress however it was not to happen. His father meet him on the edge of the sands and took him over to the side telling him there would be another time.His life took another odd turn with the war over with there was a summit that lead to many changes along Pern. Helian watched as Inverness Weyr was created and the Selentias Gold Milleth laid another 10 eggs. He stood again however was left with disappointment because he did not impress. The whole situation would normally cause a person to loose their confidence however he decided that he'd try again later. Most of his time was spent with his father and doing chores around the weyr. It would be the same for the next two turns as he continued to fail in his quest to impress a egg.
