Physical Description of Persona:
Redivale is a lean, wiry young man who stands just shy of six feet, with the early signs of the same athletic build his father maintains so effortlessly. His dirty-blonde hair, a shade darker than R’vayne’s, lightens in streaks during the warmer months, and he's in the midst of the young adult trend of keeping it long, though usually tied back and kept out of his face. Hazel-green eyes give him an intent, restless expression. He's trying to pull off a similar 'scruffy' look like his father, but his facial hair is still growing patchy and awkward. He is a bit intense about mess and dirt, and so his appearance is always clean and well-kept.

Emotional Description of Persona:
Redivale is earnest and deeply driven. He has absorbed all the stories about dragons as intensely as any weyrbred kid, and his desire to Impress and join the fighting Wings with his father is a fierce, aching ambition that hasn't dimmed in all the turns he's spent waiting. He works hard and rarely steps out of line (though the urge to be accepted by his peers sways him to mischief more often than he'd admit). He is overly eager to prove that he can measure up not only to his father’s example but to the myriad of riders in his family. So much so that he's going to struggle too much during his future weyrling training and his first few turns as a rider. He pushes himself too hard, expects too much, and asking for help feels like weakness. He is his harshest critic, replaying mistakes endlessly and quietly judging others who seem to take their duties less seriously.

History of Persona:
Born and raised in Dragonsfall Weyr, Redivale grew up steeped in the culture of dragonriders. He doesn't remember much of the Interval (and even if he did, the flurry of activity of preparing for Threadfall would hardly seem different than flying Threadfall itself. As part of a long family line of riders with “Redi-” names, his pride in his family history was instilled at a young age. He apprenticed to one of the Weyr's harpers to continue telling the stories of those who came before, and he has a knack for the archives and recalling the history of their storied Weyr. His special harper 'talent' is really in art, though he often lacks the patience to complete a piece nor is he gentle enough with himself to do much with them if they are done. He is good enough to get his Journeyman's knots in the next few turns, should he age out of candidacy, but he doesn't want to think about that just yet.

Pets

Tuber, Brown Firelizard: aged 9, hatched m11 d1
Tuber (aka Tubby aka Tubs aka Tuba) is a pudgy little brown, round in the middle and soft everywhere else, the exact opposite of the sleek, elegant firelizards typical in stories. His hide is a warm, mottled russet like baked bread crust. He has a habit of wiggling his whole body when he chirps, as if he’s too happy to contain himself. His name came naturally- round as a tuber and small, it was plainly what a child would name the family firelizard if allowed. Tuber was supposed to impress his father, but a young Redivale was intent on helping him and the pair inadvertently matched instead. It's for the best; Tuber is well trained and acts as a comfort when Redivale gets too deep in his own head.
