Pets:
Feline:
Serval- Ula is a slender long necked feline. Her golden coat is peppered in large black spots and all four paws are white instead of gold like the rest of her. Very loyal to Fortin she is usually sitting at his feet whether in his rooms with his wife or in the kitchen keeping unwanted little vermin away...including nosey, noisy fire-lizards.
Appearance: Though he's 42 turns old he looks like he's twenty and acts it too. Hair? What hair, Fortin lost his hair years ago and never cared a lick that he had...hates finding hair in the food and so...shaved it all off. His wife knows what hair color he has, obviously, but besides that he's completely bald. Bright gold eyes and a heat weathered complexion shows where he usually hangs out. His skin is tanned but his arms, neck, chest, and face are darker then the rest of his body due to the vast amounts of time he spends in front of the fire. He found clothes get in the way and chooses to wear no shirt during large events, only wearing wherries skin pants and leather boots...nothing more.
Personality: Very stubborn and stuck to his ways he hates having others tell him what he can and cannot do in HIS kitchen. Cooking is his life and his wife knows this which is why she works under the butcher to make sure all meat and fish was ready to be delivered to her husband when needed, the last thing she needed was for him to come to bed in a foul mood. Fortin has been cooking ever since he was a child, aiding his father (Head Cook before himself) in the kitchen and eagerly followied in his retired father's footsteps. Though it appears not many like his methods of cooking Fortin sees no trouble in it. No hair in the food, no clothing fibers...hell if it was up to him he'd cook naked but knew that would be going too far. Other then cooking he looks after the riders both physically and mentally.
Both himself and the late Weyrleader A'dan had taken a liking to the young green rider Anh'llei and since Fortin and his wife had no children treated him like family. Not many know of Doruin's interest in Anh'llei not even the green rider, Fortin has grown to dislike the steward and keeps a very close, careful eye on him.
History: Fortin is the son of the former Head Cook, Jorgintho. His mtoher died when he turned four and so had to spend much of his time with his father, learning under the rough skinned, but large hearted man. Everything about food he learned from his father and when he turned fourteen began to take over much of his father's work under the Weyrwoman's nose. It was only when his father took ill that he went to her about taking over and much to his delight earned the job only a month after his father was unable to work any longer. Only eighteen at the time Fortin took over with a vengence deciding his long black hair would obviously get in the way and decided to shave it off...that was only a year or two after marrying his wife. He began going shirtless not long after that though he knows many in the weyr have gained gray hairs from his antics...but he doesn't care what others think of his 'habits' in the kitchen.
