The Turns of dragonriding have left R'sner with a wiry and toned physique, muscles well defined with continued physical exercise and daily life. His face is an elongated oval; nose crooked from a past break, his chin strong and masculine, with a bit of stubble. His skin is weathered from a life spent outdoors, fine lines formed around eyes that have squinted into the sun for far too many Turns. His eyes are a dark, cobalt blue beneath black brows, gaze intense and with an almost haunted look at times. He stands around six feet tall in height, and carries himself in a way that speaks to quiet knowledge of his own strength, lacking any of the bravado that may come from over confidence.
R'sner favors comfortable clothing, and wears riding leathers only when strictly necessary. Typically he can be found in a pair of black trousers and a loose, dark-grey shirt. When he does wear leathers, they are dark and well-worn, comfortably broken in and lacking decoration. There is no attempt to draw attention to himself with the way he dresses, but the cut and fit is flattering to his form.
History
R'sner — Risner at birth — was born and raised in Fort Weyr. His father, a brownrider, fell in love with his mother, a barmaid. They had a rather successful relationship, producing a large family of which R'sner is the only son. He grew up in the bar with his mother, having no aspirations to do more than this. A few months into his sixteenth turn, he was searched by K'shan's green Nawyth. More of a demand than an offer, he accepted candidacy and all of the rules that were required of it. When the Hatching finally came at the unGodly hour of 2AM, Risner was among the lucky eleven to walk away with a dragon, bonded forever to Second-in-Command to No One Green Toith
Very early on, R'sner knew he was outmatched and overwhelmed by his rambunctious, tomboy of a green. In less than a month, she had broken his nose (accidently of course) and landed him in trouble. It would be the first of a serious of unfortunate events and even more unfortunate punishments. No matter what he did, R'sner found himself on the Weyrlingmaster's bad-side and punishment-list. Toith was rough, tough, loud and messy, driven to prove herself at whatever the cost. Almost at birth, an intense rivalry that bordering on hatred sprang up between Toith and her sister, Maglinoth. R'sner spent most of his Weyrlinghood trying to find a balance of control between himself, Toith, and the rest of the world. But despite all odds, they made it through in one piece and graduated on time.
Upon graduation he selected the transport wing, Roc. This was not without its own set of challenges, least of all being the animosity between him and the then-Wingleader. While life as a dragonrider was far from what he had envisioned, R'sner settled in with ease. A place of his own was a luxury, and he reveled in the freedom of being a dragonrider. Eventually romance would find him, and he settled down in his late twenties with a weyrmate by his side. It was a good partnership, and R'sner could not have been happier with his life. Unfortunately, disaster struck the pair with the death of his weyrmate and his weyrmates dragon. R'sner took the hit hard, and even after a lengthy hiatus from Wing and Weyr, he could not find it in him to come home. After six months, he put in a request to transfer away from Fort, hoping a change in vocation and location would assist in the process of moving on, leaving Fort for Ierne Weyrhold.
Three and a half years spent there did wonders for him, and though he will never be quite the same person he was before the loss of his love, he has learned to move on and find 'life' for himself once again. With this new growth comes the desire to be a productive member of society once more, putting his skills to use in a more formal capacity than simply ferrying folks from place to place to make a meager living. The idea of moving back to Fort was too painful, and so R'sner put in a request to move to Half Moon Bay Weyr instead, ready to serve in whatever capacity he can.
Apparently, that capacity is by serving as Weyrlingmaster, a position that R'sner and Toith accepted with some amount of reservation along with a healthy dose of anticipation. Well. R'sner had reservations. Toith was thrilled at the opportunity to share all she's learned in her many Turns (whether R'sner wants it shared or not) to young and impressionable minds (watch out Weyr!). But passing on knowledge is certainly something the pair can do. And when there are no weyrlings needing to be taught, the pair offer their assistance to Seamount, happy enough to do something they are both comfortable and familiar with.
(this needs updating but, pertinent information is: He met his now-weyrmate, moved to Igen while said now-weyrmate was a candidate, stayed and took an AWLM position when now-weyrmate became a weyrling, and now both Res and weyrmate have moved back to Half Moon)
(this needs even MORE updating but I am a lazy SOB and not about to go into it. The summary is thus: During the first month of turn 2720, R'sner was injured while out on a transport run. The injury resulted in his inability to continue in the WLM and he voluntarily gave up the knot)

Firelizards
Lanky Bronze Saafir - PC
A lanky, long-bodied firelizard. His hide is that greeny-gold sort of bronze, gleaming with a faint metallic sheen where it catches the light. His wingsails are translucent and veined in darker tones, his tail long and whip-like.
honestly: I desced this egg and hatchling myself, so that's all you're gettin ;)
Live Up to MY Standards Brown Pro - NPC
What catches the eye about this firelizard is first and foremost the hue and patterning of his hide. He is brown, no mistaking, but he looks etched of stone. Not just any stone but the bold and banded brown and golden layers of tiger eye. The layers run at a slight angle to his body so that no matter how he might naturally sit, stand or fly the bands will never run exactly parallel with the horizon. It almost looks like that might be an irritation to this one who holds himself to such a high standard that his very hide might be so slightly off kilter but the fine warm hues of the bands will hopefully more than make up for it. Darker layers run across large wedge shaped head where emerald and lapis whirling eyes stand out of the darker bands. Lighter the golden brown lustrous layer than slips above to form knobby headknobs and crest upon eyeridges, as well to begin the fine hue layering into his sturdy neck dropping down in the husky form of his body. It is actually hard to make out his exact frame or proportion as the hues hide the parts that are a bit heavier in stock. Hide what might be thought of as flaws for surely he acts as if he possesses none. He is a perfect specimen see, don't you dare accuse him otherwise or else face the deadly sharp scythes that tip each finger and toe, or get smacked by the sturdy rope of his tail. Wings are more clearly heavily muscled as the light shines through the thinnest of membranes stretched from spar to spar. Only there does the tiger eye effect fade into a more fuzzy and hazy mix of dark brown and golden brown.
In Search Of Perfection Egg
Large this egg is among its siblings. That perfect arc of shell is smooth and unblemished from one end to the other of this egg. Of hue there is an even cream that spreads without variation not exactly brown, nor yellow, nor glaringly white but a pleasant mix just in the middle of those. As close as this might be to the perfect specimen you might say that flaws still exist. The larger end is just that, a bit too large if one were to closely inspect. A broader, flatter sort that hugs the palm in a way that stretches the hand a bit rather than it curving about. Not horribly bad or overtly noticeable but off just that hair enough to frustrate one in search of a truly perfect egg.
Inspiration
The theme of this clutch was Project Management. Your lad is based on a rough idea around dealing with project quality. There are so many pressures in dealing with a project and as crunch time hits, or budgets get squeezed it is easy for quality to begin to be sacrificed. When this is done however the client is usually the one who is the least happy in the end as they never quite get what it is they had originally expected. That sturdy metal shell originally ordered, why look, now its plastic. Still meets the requirements but does it really meet the intent and desire. Such is he. If any firelizard could be considered picky it will be this one. He won't just eat any old slob dirty piece of meat, no he needs to eat it fresh, clean, and preferably from only the best cuts. It is not that he is spoiled, just that he demands only the best of quality. He'll ensure that only the nicest, smoothest, most filtered of oils shall touch his precious hide. On occasion, of course he may have to sacrifice that quality, the rumble of hunger in his belly a driving force which will mean ultimately that's something will be better than turning down the lesser cuts, but he will always hold some standard. Nothing that was dropped on the floor for instance. No, he'll starve thank you very much.

He Who Smelt It, Dealt It Blue Skye - NPC
He certainly a round little fellow, this blue. He's roly and poly and flippy and zippy and all those other quaint little words that evoke feelings of general adorability. It's not just his tummy's fault - he's a little bit stubby all over, short of neck and tail, with squat little legs that carry him thither and yon quickly as though to make up for their lack. 'Ridges and headknobs are equally unimpressive, sweeping back in little button-bumps that can only be described as 'cute.' His wings are the only bits of him that are truly impressive, wide and well-structured and striated through with bright, sunshine blues and faint, iridescent crackles of a deep icy hue. The rest of him is a matte cadet blue broken by the occasional crystalline glimmer along his neck and sides, with neat near-black gloves pulled clear up to the elbows of each of his paws.
Malt Into My Arms Egg
It looks like someone took a paintbrush and went to town on this egg, flicking their brush with childish enthusiasm. There's little flecks of every single color splattered over a base of soft, pale blue. It's pretty and alarming!

There's a really strange sound coming from this egg, like a tear in the fabric of time, or a raspberry that never seems to end. Thhhzzpt. Blep. L'egg! KA-WOOSH! A maelstrom of GLITTER! HAHAHA, WHO'S THE FOOL NOW? Probably this little something that fell out…
He's blue, and rotund, and has tbbppt lips and makes a funny noise every time he moves. Fbbbbrrrttt. Blart. THHHHHPT. He would PROBABLY be a PRETTY CUTE FIRELIZARD except those little head-knobs and that wriggly little tail are second to the way that he smells — or is that you? Maybe it's the person next to you trying to play the blame game. LOOK AT HIS FACE. Surely it couldn't have been him… right?

This perhaps aides with all the crap he has to wade through. Do you know how hard it is, being a working man in a cute flit's body? Not that he isn't cute - he is, and in true Puss-in-Boots fashion, he uses it to his advantage to make all the softies melt - but man sometimes you just wanna get stuff done and you can't because "OH LOOK AT THAT CUTE FLIT HE'S SO TINY WATCH HIM TRY TO LIFT THAT BRANCH AND STRUGGLE HOW ADORABLE." Like gosh. Honestly. Do people gotta rub it in so much? He's trying to build a nest for his lady love, alright - that's hard enough without being reminded of his short-comings. Wait. Did he just make a short joke about himself? WHATEVER. SHUT UP. THHBT. Which is, perhaps, one of the stranger things about him - that he's capable of mimicking that human noise with distinct alacrity, and, what's worse, with proper comedic timing. Call it a gift. Or a curse. Your choice, really.

Your flit was lovingly concocted by Ila'den and R'hyn. Its egg is based off a Robin's Eggs candies and the flit is based off a whoopee cushion. Happy Easter Fools!
Weyr Description and Images
Just inside the weyr's entrance, a series of stone steps leads to a shallow landing before turning sharply to the right. The stone staircase hugs the weyr wall on one side, while an iron railing on the other allows a view of the space below while preventing falls. Each step has been carefully cut, the stairs level and precisely spaced to ensure ease of travel.
While the stone stairs continue downward, the first landing spreads out into the main room of the weyr. The walls have been left rough and raw, untouched except for an occasional nook or shelf cut into the stone for the collection of clutter. The floor has been smoothed and cut to resemble tiles, the pattern both decorative as well as practical; texture added to prevent slipping on otherwise smooth stone. To the right, the stone has been cut away to fit in an old cast iron stove, a welcome heat source for the cold desert nights. Along the left, a wooden platform rises three feet off the ground and serves as a space for seating, a large cushion and several pillows added for comfort and to encourage relaxation. Overall, the room is cozy and inviting.
Toward the back of the room and separated from the main area by a dark-stained wooden panel, lies the bedroom. A large bed dominates the space, dressed in cream-colored linens. A similarly hued textured throw provides warmth and is complimented by several pillows. Dark-stained wooden nightstands sit to either side, offering only enough space for a few candles and a spare knick-knack or two. To the left of the bed and up a small step, a large nook offers a space for a wooden wardrobe, as well as a small writing desk and chair. Concealed behind a curtain, a larger closet looks to have been recently cut into the stone.
In the main room, directly beneath the stairs of the entrance, a natural split in the rock has been painstakingly carved into a stone archway that leads into a large bathroom. A rich, darkly stained wooden shelving unit sits directly inside and provides a place for towels, jars of bath salts, scented oils and luxurious soaps. A large stone tub rests at an angle to the wall, fed by free-standing pipes. A small nook holds the sink and, cleverly hidden around the bend, a toilet.
Continuing down the initial stairway, the passage grows noticeably darker and more confined. The walls close around the stone stairs before spilling into a low ceilinged room. Gravel has been utilized as the flooring of choice, complementing the rough, uncut stone of the walls. Very little has been done to modernize the space, and what light there is comes from candles littered about the room. Along the back wall are a series of pillows for use as seating; large cream-colored cushions on the floor while an assortment of smaller pillows are arranged as a backrest. The space is dark, quiet, and distinctly intimate.
Dragon
Second In Command To No One Green Toith
Vivid verdant veracity encapsulates this hoyden in brash color, fearless in the face of judgement. Built along stout lines and broad frame, an even coat of green-apple perfection covers her brawny musculature and is her only saving grace from mistaken masculine identity. Smudges of fresh-dirt topsoil accentuate her boxy, bulky brawn: along the lines of a square'd headknob, the heavy edge of neckridge, marking the top of strong shoulders and each blunt paw, tipped with chalky talons. Her markings seem to be the summation of her soul: careless and undaunted, a debutante's nightmare, the very vision of a tomboy.
