Character Information
Name: Laurian (Lore-ee-inn), nickname Lauri (Lore-ee)
Gender: Male
Age/Birthday: 26/Summer birthing day
Orientation: Heterosexual
Rank: Journeyman Harper
Location: Keroon
Affiliation: He is a harper. A peacemaker and judge. He takes things as they are and tried not to pass early judgment.
Standing: He loves the old ballads of Dragons and Weyrs, and although he does not know that the dragons still exist, not being in the Master’s inner circle, he would defiantly be pleasantly surprised at that discovering. There is precedence of a long interval and the records say thread will come. The songs he sings say it will come-so it will come.

Brother Amekor 11 (Am-eh-korr)
Spouse, Apprentice Harper (Singer), Wynnhye 22 (Win-ee-yeh) – She is much unlike most women of the north and often gets in trouble for it. She was a wild one and unruly until her parents thrust her unto Laurian. She showed great talent but they had little success in turning her into a lady. And yet, she fits well with her mild mannered if somewhat traditional spouse. She is vibrant and exotic in personality and appearance with an head of long, dark brown, wavy curls and deep blue eyes. Her beauty isn’t textbook to say the least but recognized. With her two children now born she has settled down somewhat but her spark will be hard quenched.
Daughter Layhne 4 (Lane)
Son Rowahnn 1 (Roh-wan)
Pets:
Runner Fred, real name Fredlen – A mare of 10 turns, given to Laurian by his father upon reaching Journeyman rank. She was just turned 4 when given to the young Harper as a Journeyman’s runner. It was his father’s reasoning that he’d be traveling more now it could be nice for him to have his own runner. Fred is certainly not from a noble or well bred line but she does her job. She’s about middle height and sturdy, gray and dappled in color.
Appearance:
He’s good looking but not drop dead gorgeous. His best feature is probably his deep green eyes that really reflect his personality; intelligent, calm and pensive. His hair is rather plain, a light brown color and cut fairly short except a little longer in the front. His face and bone structure is fine except for a slightly large nose and smallish ears. But he is still a handsome man, all put together.
He is about six foot and fit. He excerisize regularly and his job involves a fair amount of movement anyways so he is never really out of shape. He is not particularly tanned, living in the north as he does, and his skin is fairly even without freckles or many blemishes. His hands however are blistered from both riding and playing the gitar. He has several nicks and scars that he has acquired in no particularly interesting way throughout his life and his body generally shows the wear that a 26 turn old man’s might.
He wears harper blue on official occasions but when traveling or otherwise he wears soft clothes pants in dark brown or black with a white shirt and a vest and if necessary, a cloak in dark green or brown. He wears a single silver band on his finger from his spouse, Wynnhye . His boots are well worn leather with the harper seal branded into the sole. He dresses fairly simple, as he believes a Journeyman should; too old for silly fashions but too young too where things of extravagance.
Personality:
He is a good fit for harper life. Keen to learn and a good teacher in return. He is bright, but not overly so, and enjoys the traditional ballads and stories, especially those of dragons and the weyrs of old. He would hardly be perturbed or surprised if he discovered their existence which he might one day do if he reaches master rank. He is a good mediator and likes to solve issues respectfully and peacefully. He prefers patience and peace to war and violence any day. He speaks little but has well formed opinions and is set in them and is stubborn to change them. He is loyal to the hall and to the people of pern in general but it is to the Masterharper that he truly serves. He respects the customs of the north and their formalities even if he does put up with his spouse whom many would suggest often goes out of her place.
Where he does falt as a harper is in shrewdness and cunning. When he argues he argues with silence, not words, which can be all well and good in small disputes but he would never spy or spread propaganda or meddle as the harpers do. He is too honest and truthful and would have trouble lying when it was asked of him. He does not really have the mind it takes to reach the Masterharper seat and neither does he have the ambition. It is actually his goal to, once reaching a masters position to, teach at the hall and pass on his knowledge to the next harpers of pern.
His skills as a harper are mainly voice and gitar but he can play simply on the drums and fiddle, with some competence, with the other instruments. His voice is rich and smooth like good klah or fine cloth. His Journeyman gitar is somewhat warn and although not originally made by him all the strings have been replaced by his hand and some of the body and neck as well. He does not own much else, a belt knife and such, he values simplicity. He is, for a Pernese person, spiritual. Not religious or superstitious but he believes in the innate goodness of the human soul and the unity of a man with Pern.
He has a fun, personable side as well though. In between grueling hours of harpering and a strict excerisize regime of sparring, riding and running he is a good father and spouse. He carries his little daughter on his shoulders and makes his baby son laugh at the funny faces he makes. He hangs out with his friends and shares skins of wine.
History:
He was born into a large harpering family and grew up with music everywhere. What they say about having to be loud in a big family, well he went the opposite direction. He found he could get what he wanted without saying much at all,. Most of his siblings were younger and grew up with many responsibilities, but certainly not as many as Aumrin or Lemriane. As his brothers grew up they were apprenticed off to some trade, Harper or Smith. His sisters, until the wily Lemura, were married off. He had decided he wanted to be a harper at age 5 when his father first let him touch a gitar. He made his first instrument, a crooked set of pipes at age seven and played music he had written on his own or picked up from older children. He showed much promise and was marked for apprenticeship early.
He first began riding and sparring when his snot nosed little brother Iomril called him a sissy for loving music so much at age 9. He took it very personally. He grew up tall and strong like most of his family members and had his fair share of girlfriends as an apprentice who liked his quiet, romantic nature…not to mention the songs he wrote for them. He didn’t have the knack for composing that his father did but he wrote simple things well enough. Apprenticeship wasn’t that hard for him, he picked up things easily and was always respectful and helpful to his teachers who admired greatly. It was because of his voice master, Harling, that he took up singing as his forte and wanted to become a teaching master. He became a Journeyman at just before 20. He had come down with fever at 18 and although he had gotten back into shape quickly, he realized he had some catching up to do and wouldn’t be graduating that turn.
His first post as a Journeyman, at age 20, was at a smaller, mining hold just outside of Crom. His charges were few and he found the job rewarding if somewhat tedious. That was however, until he met Wynnhye. He hadn’t really ever met anyone like her and was immediately taken with the girl. The elders of the hold were obviously exasperated and pushed her towards him to see if he could do something with her. He readily accepted and discovered that there was even more to her than he saw. She had a beautiful soprano voice, as fine as any of those he’d heard at the hall. As they grew closer and he began his courtship, to the annoyance of his parents who didn’t think her suitable, he insisted that she return with him to the hall once his posting was done. They were espoused midway through his term at the mining hold and she was pregnant soon after. About have a turn before he was set to leave she gave birth to their daughter, Layhne.
He returned to the harper hall with his daughter and spouse when he was 23 turns. Wynnhye, upon showing off her voice, was accepted as an apprentice much to the couple’s delight. However, Laurian was faced with a problem. He had been assigned to another hold for a turn. He promised that he wouldn’t leave her again when he came back. Sometimes he wondered if she was always faithful to him, as he was to her, but when he visited he could see in her eyes that she was. He returned home at a gallop with Fred and it seemed that the girl was pregnant again within a month. In terms with his promise he decided to stay at the hall for two turns as an assistant to the teaching masters and study further at the hall until his unborn child was old enough to safely go with him.
Rowahnn was then born and now, a year after that, Laurian is preparing to leave again. Wynnhye had decided, that to go with him, she would leave her apprenticeship on hold. It was surprising how much she had matured in a few turns. Now for Laurian, he has just been trasnfered to Keroon. He is excited about the mobve and can't wait to see how it develops.
