Character[/b]
Name:Walther ((W'her when he impresses))
Age:21
Gender:Male
Rank:Journeyman Harper/Scholar ((Candidate*))
Mutated?(If so what is their ability):Yes, can go without oxygen for extremely long periods. He is not holding his breath. His power is more he can survive oxygen deprivation without needing to get another breath of air into his lungs for about 45 minutes.
Location:Skysong Weyr
Appearance:
The man looks like he could be nothing else but a scholar with his pale complexion and scrawny frame. He stands at 5'10" though looks 5'8" because he hunches and has no muscle mass what so ever. He has bright green eyes that look even bigger due to his spectacles, which he uses for reading. Walther has a long face and with light facial hair around his chin. He has blond side burns framing his face and a puffy, shaggy mess of hair on top.
He's usually dressed in Harper blue with cream-colored clothes. He can usually been seen carrying scrolls, records, or writing supplies. He kept several pairs of spectacles in his vest since he always seem to be losing them.
Personality:
Walther is a scholar through and through. He would rather spend all day with old hides reading on Pern’s history than spend a moment with people, however his duties have changed and now he must become the scribe. He must write and draw all the new things in this world that have been appearing in their world.
It isn’t that Walther dislikes people; he’s just very awkward and is usually ostracized because of it. He has no tact or knowledge of personal space and will generally scare people off by his oddities. Yet through his bumbling he is quite a kind fellow who only wishes to be understood by others for his passion of knowledge. His sexuality is very not set and in fact he tends to ignore his urge since he is too busy with his work. Though he tends to be slightly feminine in his gestures and nature.
Walther is overly enthusiastic when it comes to learning new things and is taking to his new task with vigor. Nothing is impossible in his mind as long as you have the right information. Thus his dream in life is to write down an accurate account of this Pass and the effect it is having on Pern.
This Harper isn’t what one would call heroic. In fact he’s a dreadful coward and when run from danger when he can, screaming like a girl the entire way. Yet he’s not a completely gutless for he will stand and fight for those he cares about. He maybe be crying and shaking like a leaf the whole way, but he’ll be handy in a pinch. With his knowledge he can do some quick thinking to help get his friends and himself out of tight jams.
Overall Walther is a sweet, strange, cowardly, but good friend to have. You just need to pry him out of little hiding spots long enough.
History:
Walther comes from a family of teachers, harpers, and scribes. It was no wonder what he was going to be doing for the rest of life. At the age of 12 he became an apprentice at the HarperHall. He had no musical talent, but he was one of the best artist and recorder the Hall has had recently. It was at 18 turns he was made a journeyman and only recently he was been sent out on his first Journey.
His duty is to record all new mutations in both dragons and riders of Skysong Weyr. He set sail from Tillek Hold and was suppose to arrive a few weeks before the hatching. He rode on a transport ship called the Dawning Sister, a ship known to be fairly fast. That is why it was a surprise that they were late for arriving. They were delayed with Southern’s sudden storms that usually occur, but what nearly sunk them was the Acid. Half of the crew had perished and the other half began to show signs of mutation. Walther looked to be one of the very few who did not get effected by the Acid.
Walther does not remember what exactly had happen, but they were about to send help when the ship suddenly exploded. All he could figure that it had something to do with someone’s new powers because he heard yelling before the blast. He was thrown over board, but his leg was entangled in rope which was still attached to the ship, and thus was dragged down with the Dawning Sister as it sank.
All the harper could think that he was dying and that any moment his eyes would close for good. It was then he realized that his lungs were already filled with water and he still wasn’t dead. He managed to get his leg finally freed and came to the surface. He was underwater for a full 15 minutes and by all means should have been dead. It was then that Walther realized he had mutated. He managed to drift on pieces of shipwreck to the shores of Skysong Weyr. Now he needs to figure out how to get to the Weyr and continue his duties.
