Name: Juvon (J'von)

Gender/Age: male, 19

Rank/Craft: Journeyman Harper (illustrator), Rider

Location: Alabaster Craft Hall

Relatives/Family: none present

Dragon if any: IMPRESSED BLUE NATONITH at EVEREST WEYR!

Physical Description: 6'3", 230, a huge man but a bit flabby rather than all muscle. Rich brown skin, his hair is either all 'fro'ed out, huge and lumpy under a huge purple hat, or shaved completely off -- and under a huge purple hat. He has a little beard mostly stubble. His eyes are almost violet brown. He has a chubby, friendly face, usually smiling and his eyes always show his emotions. He has a deep, booming voice, but he mutters like a pro, but he also is prone to using strange slang ... perhaps he got into Aivas' collection of earthly languages? His clothing runs toward the overambitiously floppy, like his hat he likes purples and greens, often together, and often to a garish effect. His pants are always frayed at the bottom, and usually are much longer than they need to be.

Emotional/Mental Description: friendly, silly, "wack" in many senses of the word. He is a kind of jester, always with something funny to say or do. That is not saying that he is not serious about anything, he does his work illustrating things for Alabaster like a pro and loves to do it. He is keen on working his way into the true Alabaster structure, and can be trusted with information if not actually working a party (he'd be a little too much for most of Engell's parties).

Skills: a keen eye for detail and a steady hand aids Juvon's work, he is able to capture faces and personages with a few strokes of a pen, brilliantly illustrating the local news paper (which they do in fact have at Alabaster!) or making clever Harper aids for learning. He is also quite adept at literally throwing his weight around, if need be he can always guard or bodyguard for Engell.

History: always around Harpers in some form or another, Juvon was talented from the start and offered his Journeyman status at the age of 15. He took advantage of this, and went harpering around, but came back to Alabaster recently and paired up with Alrik as a weyr mate as they are both now Candidates. They also found that between the two of them, they can create funny books with pictures, comic books if you will, that Alrik scripts and Juvon draws.

Notes and Special Information: He is intent on having a dragon, more so that he might fly about and see sights, than to fight Thread, but when Thread does fall over Alabaster he'll be right there killin' it.

Pets/Hobbies/Posessions: he has no pets, they just knock things over! All his work is kept in a dry, brightly lit weyr below the Alabaster craft hall building, and he has run around in the low semi-natural caverns below finding interesting objects to collect.

BACK to Alabaster Folk

After putting ink to paper, Juvon and Alrik have been called into the courtyard of Alabaster Hold... There awaits a large brown dragon, a smaller blue, and their riders. "They're Searching," one of the nearby weyrbrats says, in a hush. "I hope they choose me!" Alrik and Juvon make their way down the steps, and at that strange moment, both dragons look at them. They will work, one of them very clearly bespeaks to all. I agree, my friend, they will. Thinks the other. Alrik and Juvon pause, but then Juvon smiles broadly as always and takes it in his stride. "We're in," he says loudly to Alrik, who slowly gains a small grin. "We are," he agrees. "Now, what?" "Now," one of the riders exclaims to them both, laying calloused hands on both their shoulders (and noticing at the same time how large the pair really are!) "you collect your things and get ready to enter our Weyr! Your Lord Holder has already given us leave to either bring your belongings with us, or leave them here, as we know you'll eventually be returning to Alabaster." "With or without Impression," the Blue rider adds, a moment later. "With," both Juvon and Alrik say, at one another laughing!
