PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION


Sh'ay's model is Neil Haskell

Boyishly cute looks, big feet, long and slender hands, and in need of some meat on his bones. A speck of a birthmark rests high on his right cheekbone and he has a rather long, sharp nose to his narrow face that gives him a certain roguish look, especially coupled with his innocent smile that promises devilment near at hand. A toe-head blonde, he wears it spiky and has brown eyes.

However, due to a massive injury sustained on Threadfall 32.02.17, Sh'ay had to undergo intensive reconstruction surgery of cheek and nose. He now bares only the slightest of scars, nearly invisible, though the dimple in that cheek is a mere shadow now, compared to the one in his other.

Though he has undergone a great many hardships for one so young, he has come through on the other side, still on the lanky side but growing fast and with the muscles a Dragonrider twice his age would be proud of.

PERSONALITY
PERSONALITY DESCRIPTION Sh'ay is an all-around average sort of kid. Energetic, often times hyper with a lust for life and mischief. He occasionally talks too loud, wears his day clothes to bed, and forgets to brush his hair. But all in all he is a charming sort of brat who likes to sing ridiculous tunes off-key, unwittingly hiding the fact that he has a truly sweet voice that can hit high notes other males have to be kicked and in agony to achieve.

Small objects find themselves bouncing off of the sides of his feet and his instructors are forever annoyed with his wandering attention, though his intelligence cannot be faulted and the outcome of his studies never fall short of the mark.

Unfortuanetly, Sh'ay witnessed a terrible tragedy while net fishing with his fellow young rider, Bronze bonded G'rin, and the experience left him a mere shell of what he was previously, leaving him hollow and haunted. His appearance was the last thing on his tortured mind and he lost weight, didn't sleep, and barely lifted a brush- let alone running bath water.

In short, he looked like he was- suffering.

Sierith's Flight (33.02.08) altered the devastating path this boy was on and he has since shaken off the despair and decided to live again.
HOBBIES Playing games. Made up, well-known, or obscure- Sh'ay loves them all and lends his boundless energy to all of his pursuits.

SHORT HISTORY



Born in space, his first birthday was celebrated aboard a research vessel. His second, again, was celebrated in the depths of space. Third and fourth... were no different from his first two. It was the only life that the first born child of Brent and Sharon MacKenzie knew and up until the crunch of soil underfoot, the only life he wanted. But at only four years old, how far does your world reach?

Pern opened up a whole new universe to the youngster, fraught with danger and excitement, wide open spaces to play with no one shouting not to run in the corridors. Brilliant blue skies replaced the perpetual night of deep space, lush green fields washed away the indifferent coldness of recreation halls, and the constant thrum of machinery had melted away, leaving the boy wondering if his bones had always vibrated.

And so it was that he became one of the "ill", affected with the strange malady that forced the FSP to abandon its people on the primitive planet of Pern.

Sh'ay is from the Des Collines Cothold, where he was later searched and stood on the Sands to Impress the center of his Universe, Brown Morlyth with the Magpie Class.

Since then, both were gravely injured during Threadfall on 32.02.17. Sh'ay underwent massive reconstructive surgery, witnessed the death of a more then one friend, been shown the ways of lovemaking by Sabrinn, and apprenticed to be a Harper.
