Physical Description: Stands five and a half feet tall, and wieghts
in at around 150 pounds, being of fairly average build. Has green
eyes, long brown hair and usually seen with a certain ammount of
stuble on his chin. Although he is not particuarly attractive he
generally wears a smile, and has a certain appealing shine in his
eyes. For clothing he rarely wears anything formal, usually only very
basic clothes, and often goes bare footed.

Abilities, Strengths, Weaknesses: Vikrim has a (very)limited
reading/writing ability and is capable of numerous basic tasks.
However, his true strengths lie in his personality (so see below - to
sumarise, his 'people skills' are superb). He is relatively slow
minded with most issues, and he lacks experience in his current role.


Personality: Vikrim is everyone's friend. He's a shoulder to lean on
when everything is going wrong, and someone to go to for advice. He's
slow to anger and quick to forgive, being a generally layed back and
relaxed person. He knows exactly what to say to cheer people up, and
exactly what to say to ease a difficult situation. He has a good sense
of humour, and although he is prone to the occasional lapse of
stupidity, he always sees the funny side of it. He always has a kindly
word of inspiration for those he talks to, making him good at getting
the best out of people, and as such a good leader.


History: Growing up in Last Hope hold, Vikrim dreamed of becoming a
dragonrider, and was often told off by his mother, or mocked by his
younger brother for it. His father however, always gave him a knowing
wink, before telling him to stop day dreaming about it. Vikrim never
had much respect for his mother and brother, but he looked up to his
father with great respect, for he was a man who knew what to say to
cheer him up when he was depressed (which he often was, during his
teenage years). Vikrim had a fairly uneventful childhood, until he
reached 16, and was found by a search rider from Last Hope weyr.
Vikrim was keen to go and fufil his dream, and after saying his
goodbyes to his father only, he left.

Vikrim felt bad about leaving his mother and brother out of his
goodbyes, but he knew they wouldn't appreciate his decision. Upon
becoming a candidate though, he was told that his father had cought a
terrible fever and had died. Vikrim was shocked, and was visably upset
for months. To add to his troubles he recieved word that his brother
and mother had moved away, and obviously unimpressed with his
decisions, had not told him where they were going. Vikrim knew he
would never see them again. His depression was to end however, when he
impressed the bronze Vytelth. Vikrim decided that from now on he would
try to be more like his father was - helpful and supportive of all.

With his new attitude, Vikrim quickly rose up the ranks, and became a
wingleader. With several years of this experience under his belt,
Vikrim realised every dragonrider's dream, when his Vytelth cought
Weyrwoman Aryna's queen, Crissith in her latest mating flight. The two
dragons were a good match, and seem to be settled with each other to
this day. However, Vikrim and Aryna have their differences. While
Vikrim is content to forgive and forget, Aryna feels the need to hold
a grudge. However, they have always managed to work out their problems
in the end of the day, and have earnt a deep understanding of one
another.
