[IMAGE COMING SOON... but have some text anyway pDd]
Dagger, a fairly stalky teenager, seems to have been born for speed. Instead of inheriting the thick-boned aspect of his family, Dagger inherited the tallness common of the Sölbergs, but also inherited his mother's lean body. These traits have always helped him at running, but even better, they seem to come quite in handy when flying. With his stick-like figure, he doesn't slow down Aldruhn in the least, and can easily crouch down to her body so as to create as little wind resistence as possible. With bright orange-reddish hair and golden eyes rivalling the brightness of hsi dragon's, Dagger isn't all too hard to spot either. On top of that, he wears a bright fox fur-line jacket and a white shirt, making him very noticeable to see, even on his massice dragon. His most noticeable acessory though is a strange hat called a "Chullo," that has a pair of goggles attatched to it's brim. It was a gift from his father when he became a mailer, and he uses it frequently when riding so as to block the wind from his face- and any wood splinters that might drift into his eyes when he's making a "landing." Though he wouldn't admit it, without those goggles he more-than-likely would have lost both eyes by now.
Personality:
Tall, lanky, and with a smug smile that would give any girl the chills (in either a good or bad way), Dagger doesn't look like your average viking- and that, quite simply, is because he's not. He's a mailer, though with the way he acts you'd think he was Rider, which, in actuality, is what he wants to become one day. Certainly having the attitude for it, Dagger is bold, inventive, quick-on-the-draw, and just a little bit cocky. Raised as no-nonsense Blacksmith's son, he grew up in a large family, never expecting much but always expecting to work for what he had. For the longest time he didn't know what he wanted to be when he grew into adulthood- all that he knew, was that he loved speed. Of course, being no proper jobs for this talent, Dagger had no proper career choice and thought, just as his father had groomed him, he would learn to become a blacksmith- that was, until the Wyrm attacked. After the first initial killings of the village, and after seeing hsi father silently grieve for so many of their lost family, he knew what he wanted was vengence. Unfortunately, despite all of his wanting, the best he's been able to train himself to his Mailer, which is a somewhat incredible feat considering the mount he chose was the all powerfull Timber Jack. Still, he longs for the blood of the Wyrm on his spear, and dreams heavily of the day he'll be able to join the other villagers in fighting this terribly scourge. His routine duties are moving mail from Berk to Tale, but he's constantly on the lookout for excitement or adventure along the way, though he wouldn't dare step out of line in doing so. In his off-time he likes to play sports and kick a ball around with Aldruhn, calling it "Intense Training," though in actuality it looks more like a glorified game of hand-ball.
Dragon:
Aldruhn
Species:
Timber Jack
Appearance:
Only having been born when the Wyrm attacks began happening in Tale, Aldruhn is still a fairly young dragon, and it shows in her size. She's, as of yet, only a third of the size of a normal Timber Jack, though for her rider's sake this may be for the better. Being a youngling, her spikes and horns are still short and soft, not yet becoming full-fledged weapons, and her wings are, as of yet, still unused to cutting down tree's (though she may have taken down one or two due to her rider's clumsiness). She was named "Aldruhn" because the pattern on her wings reminded Dagger of "Old Runes" from stone ruins he'd seen before. Her eyes are a bright yellow, and overall the rest of her coat is a dull mix between red and brown, though strapped to her tail is a bright orange symbol of Dagger's family, the continuos sun.
Personality:
Seemingly like her owner, Aldruhn is a young, slightly reckless dragon with a little body but big ambitions. Having been raised in the time of the Wyrms, she's been taught since she was a hatchling that one day she will have to prepare herself to fight, and perhaps, die, so that the rest of her species may thrive. Because of this instilled knowledge, she can be very noble and obedient, but like her owner, she also has times where she will be infuriatingly stubborn, though most of the time it's because of her and her rider getting mad at each other. Albeit, a little bit pushy at times, when push comes to shove, she can show a surprising amount of drive, and will refuse to give up without a fight.
