MLEYNN
Name: Mleynn
Pronunciation: Ma-LEE-en
Age: 13 turns
Season Born In: Fall
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual, could change...
Appearance:
Mleynn is a small lad, little muscle, little fat. He isn't unhealthy or weak to any extend, he has the high metabolism of a growing boy. The poor boy is a bit of a clumsy kid, clearly because he hit a gangly growth spurt and cannot seem to get used to his new size or proportions.
His hair is a thinned bowl cut, a bit scruffy most of the time. This downy soft hair is natural red-blond, being a shade more strawberry than his sister's. Besides red hair, Mleynn has quite a lot of freckles. These brown spots are dense around his commonly sunburned cheeks, and dilute a bit along his legs and arms. Both he and his sister share their red hair and dark brown eyes.
Mleynn wears the normal uniform for men, tunics, trousers, boots. His may be a bit more tattered, but still neat so that he doesn't appear totally homeless-hopeless or lowly.
Mleynn has a scarry burn all the way from his left palm to his elbow from an accident in his past.
Personality:
Mleynn is vastly different in temperment and thinking than his sister. He is like a turtle or snail while she's a hare or cheetah, zooming circles around his comtemplation.
Mleynn is very tolerant of being mocked, he can't ignore the cruelty directed at him. It seems like the only time he actually reacts to something is when it involves his sister.
He is thought to either just be slow or have a problem developed at birth that makes his learning slow and his understanding and processing even slower. He doesn't react to things maybe because by the time he can get offended at the ugly names he's being called, there is no reply that isn't foolish or late.
Mleynn is quiet, happy to just watch his sister and listen. He is mystified by the stories she spits out constantly, often daydreaming that they are really true stories. This is somewhat easy, as the characters are exaggerated versions of themselves.
Mleynn does have his 'hot' side. This only comes forward if he senses Emeliynn is in danger. He is oddly aware of this, mind quick on adrineline. He seems totally different, unhesitant, and confident. Woosh, he's in, woosh, she's safe. Once the moment dies down, Mleynn is back to chill, mellow Mleynn.
Family:
Mother- Murelli
Father- Ellnadyn
Sister- Emeliynn
Location: Trelis
Rank: Dragon
History:
Some people are never cut out to be parents. Murelli and Ellnadyn were examples of this.
The two swore it was true-love, but since when does love last when you are seperated from your lover for long periods to trade and travel? That obviously was not a concern, when it should have been.
Ellnadyn was not near or with Murelli when she learned of her pregnancy. He did not know that even had a child until he received a letter, which was much delayed, about the news. He went to his lady as quick as he could, only to stay a short while. He had to leave soon after to return to the 'urgent' task he had at hand. This very well may have been important, but it aided the beginning of a long and painful relationship.
Mleynn turned out to be a quiet baby, not very bright and visibly slow. He had a habit of becoming really still and puzzled when trying to understand something, especially letters or shapes. He was very sheltered by his mother. When he did get the chance to play with the other toddlers in the caravan, he was usually singled out. He was the last child to begin talk. The last to begin exploring things. The last to stand. All in all he was the runt, and no one found him worth their time or worry.
Murelli soon found herself pregnant again, when Mleynn was 2 turns old. This new baby was not upsetting to Mleynn at all. When Emeliynn was born, Mleynn finally had a friend. Emeliynn meant everything to the boy, and together they would brave a cruel world.
Mleynn did not mind the teasing very much, but when it became directed at Emeliynn, that was an entirely different story. At one point, when Mleynn was 6 and Emeliynn was 4, a group of older kids were messing with the grumpy dog who belonged to an unpleasent man in the trader group. The dog wasn't the danger, not like Mleynn had thought. Emeliynn was dieing to make some friends, so she tagged after the other kids. She loved her brother, yes, but thought she might be loved by others too. She wasn't old enough to understand 'danger' as she should. The dog snapped at the other children, spooking them off alittle. But Emeliynn watched the doggie. She has never known fear (and never might) and when the dog came at her, Mleynn did the fastest thinking his brain ever had done before. He snatched up a fat stick and brought it down with a crack on the snarling dog's head. The dog was quickly shown who was boss, and scrambled ashamed. It cried at the pain which brought the scary lone man out. The crabby rouge trader went into a flying rage at Mleynn, grabbing a metal rob that had been in the fire. The man was much more vicious than the dog had been, as he ran the glowing orange bar into Mleynn palm and up the boy's arm. Mleynn understood one thing. He'd protect his beloved sister no matter what.
In the most recent years, Mleynn has become desperate for change. He needed a better life for himself and his sister. Their mother was not anything to them, especially recently. She has become silent, grim and withdrawn. She does not seem to see anything, and seems like a good breeze might blow her away. Mleynn and Emeliynn have decided to take leave at the nearest chance, go directly to the next Hold and begin as apprentices to some craft. That way, they could be something one day...
