Jordyn
Name: Jordyn
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Prisoner: No, but he should be.
Craft/Rank: Guard
Appearance: Unlike a certain best friend that could be mentioned, Jordyn is a delicate darling flower standing six feet even. His build is slight and sleek, skin a polished mahogany with full lips, high cheekbones, and his face is heart-shaped. Pretty boy with almost no hair, close-cut to his scalp.
His hands are as long and slender as the rest of him, littered with cuts from pissed off firelizards and various fights as a child.
Personality:
Everyone knows 'that guy' - you know, the one who talks a lot without saying a thing, changes his opinion on the dime, and will run like hell when things are getting too rough to handle? Yeah, that guy. If someone doesn't know 'that' guy, then, sorry, they're him! At the very least, Jordyn is well aware of his status, and he is quite pleased with this accurate portrayal of his awesome.
Despite his outward and plastic good cheer, Jordyn is a bitter individual, both about what he calls his 'condition' and Siata's control over how he's lived his life. He knows that without her friendship, his life would have been doomed to be without a family, and possibly not living past the age of twenty-four. Her good fortune in life and comfort with her less than average looks keeps Jordyn in a permanently resentful mood towards his best friend, an emotion constantly at war with his subsequent love with the younger woman. She is his best friend, his best everything on the verge of being madly in love. Conflicted, angry, bitter tend to make up a good portion of his emotional range, but in order to keep Siata (and everyone else) in the dark, Jordyn portrays himself as the somewhat sarcastic and jaded young man.
Perhaps due to this anger, Jordyn is not known for his peaceful ways; he has no qualm with smacking around prisoners when they get on his nerves while in a bad mood, and has been known to punch Siata's nose on occasion. He feels bad about it later, trying to take them back with apologies or wordless things, such as giving the abused prisoners extra food or new clothing when he can get it. Siata - well, she's a special case. She gets hugs. Maybe his anger problems is what kept him from Impressing when still within the typical age at the Weyr or Hold, or why clutching Whers refused his requests for an egg. He's tried to control it, really, he has, but he finds it hard to control what he can do when denied so many other things in his life.
Jordyn enjoys sex - when he can bring himself to find a partner. With his condition, Jordyn is horribly picky about his bedmates, as reactions are not always fantastic when people find out about him. He is slow to love, slow to trust, and thus has only had two partners in his life that happened outside of drunken or Dust-influenced lust. He figures this is why he is so fixated on Siata - she knows and accepts him, and his emotional attachment probably plays a large part on that. If someone touches him without permission, outside of Siata and his adoptive family, Jordyn reacts with extreme violence, the sort he doesn't feel guilty about afterwards. To be fair, he warns people when they get too close: "I don't like being touched, friend. Keep a distance, yeah?"
History: The eagerly awaited second son to Moira and Sebast, a kitchen worker and Smithcrafter respectively, Jayna was born at night, shrieking and kicking. Disappointing only to her mother, Jayna grew up being taken care of by her elder brother, Randalf, a young man eight turns by the time his second sister came around. Her eldest sister followed their mother around the kitchens as soon as she was able, one of Moira's favorite children. Three others followed Jayna in quick succession, three in four years, and left the girl to her own devices. Randalf proved to be a cheerful follower to his sisters mischevious ways and typically 'tomboy' attitude towards the world in general.
Not everyone approved of Jayna and her wild ways; one day when Randalf happened to be helping out their mother in the kitchens, a girl Jayna's age told her that A. Jayna had the face of a fish, and B. Jayna was stupid. Being a sensible girl, Jayna promptly launched herself at this other girl and started to whallop on her and good. Not being the largest child herself, Janya also got her ass kicked after getting in a few good punches herself. Jayna ended up with a bruised up face, bruised arms, and a wriggly tooth. The tooth, to a four year old, at least hit her as absolutely fascinating.
Jayna didn't stop the large woman from scooping her up, just whined like the child she happened to be. They patched her up, asked her about the fight, herself, all of that weird stuff. She blathered on about the siblings she never spoke to except for her Randalf, the parents always gone, and Jayna clung to the new family. The girl of the family, Siata, latched onto Janya quite quickly. Randalf faded into the background with his own friends and crafting, remaining the only person Jayna kept in regular contact with in her family as she spent more and more time with Siata's own.
At seven, Jayna told Randalf, "I'm a boy." during one of their rare meals together. She'd spent almost two days with her natural born family and after being shoved back and forth with how she was treated - well. She - he - shrugged. "I'm a boy."
"Well," said Randalf then. "Good luck when you start growing up." He poked Jayna's shoulder and the two moved to a different conversation. In fact, Randalf renamed his new little brother 'Jordyn'
