<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Char’s favorite color: Weylin's rather found of the color amber since it matches both his and his Céile.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Least favorite, why? : Weylin is not a large fan of colors that are extremely bright. He feels they're rather unnatural.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Are they a daredevil or cautious?: Before spirit journey, daredevil. Now a days, he's far more cautious.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Do they act the same alone as when with someone?: He's much quieter, more positive about life.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Habits: He chews on his lower lip when deep in thought and paces when aggravated.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Drinks: tribal brew.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> How much: Only on clan gatherings (once a year). He doesn't enjoy the taste of tribal brew.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Greatest Strength: He's very understanding and accepting of people once they get past his aggressive exterior.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Greatest Weakness: He's short-tempered, not usually by what people say but by people's actions.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Soft spot: Kids.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Is their soft spot obvious, why/why not: In a way, yes, since he spends a lot of his time creating gifts for the kids in his tribe.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> If not, how do they hide it:---

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Biggest Vulnerability: Nótt (his Céile). He's over-protective of her (as he should be) and if she's harmed, he's harmed emotionally.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Background:
<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Hometown: The village of Ravndal (valley).

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Type of childhood: Pre-spirit journey, his life was wonderful. As relatives to the leaders of his tribe, he never wanted for anything.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">First Memory: It's a fading memory, but he remembers his aunt picking him up and placing him on her Céile so the cougar could carry him around.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Most important child hood event that still effects him/her: The first time that he remembers his father choosing his brother over him.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Why?: Even though it was a hunting trip and his father didn't want Weylin to be harmed, Weylin was still jealous. The pattern of his father choosing Tyr over Weylin still continues.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Education: Tribal knowledge of hunting and trading.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Religion: The tribal's gods of the first Céile pair.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Finances: non-applicable.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Family:
<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Mother: Finna.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Relationship with her: Well, Weylin has a better relationship with his mother than his father. However, it's still pretty crappy.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Father: Ketill.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Relationship with him: Bad...just bad.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Siblings, How many, relationship with each: Two siblings. <span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Brother : Tyr "the shining one". Older brother by two years, the one who set all those expectations for Weylin. Strained relationship. <span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Sister : Nossa "jewel" (pre-spirit journey name). Younger sister by four years, protective over her. Relationship did not change after Weylin's spirit journey. One of the only ones who still treats him the same.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Children of siblings: non-applicable.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Other extended family: <span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Uncle : Eldur "fire". Leader of the tribe Weylin is in. <span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Aunt : Skuld "goddess of the future". Fellow leader of the tribe with Eldur.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Close? Why or why not: The family itself is very close, having lived together as one tribe since the family began. However, Weylin's personal ties with the family are strained.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Attitude:
<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Most at ease when: In the woods with Nótt, either hunting or just wandering.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Most ill at ease when: Forced into family gatherings. He knows that he just screams "outcast".

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Priorities: Protect and take care of his sister and Nótt. He'd also like to travel more, even if that means he has to become a better trader.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Philosophies: Respect the people who respect you.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">How they feel about themselves: As the months pass with Nótt, he becomes less ashamed of the fact he doesn't match his family.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Past failure they would be embarrassed to admit:When he first learned how to properly cook a slab of meat, he nearly burnt his Aunt's house down.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Why?: Because Weylin blamed it on the guests that were staying with his Aunt at the time.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> If granted one wish what would it be, why? His wish would be that he could either find a tribe that accepts him more or start his own, taking his sister with him.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Traits:
<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Optimist or pessimist? Why?: Pessimistic. Heavily pessimistic.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Introvert or extrovert? Why?: Extrovert for the most part.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Drives and motives: His main drive is to prove everyone who has doubted him, wrong.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Talents: Whittling, he's taught himself how to carve the most common animals that he sees.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Extremely skilled at: Telling the tribe stories to the children, he can understand how they lose focus so he's created the stories into being interactive.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Extremely unskilled at: Cooking, even after a year of cooking by himself, he still burns things.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Good characteristics: Weylin's rather understanding once you get past the surface layer. He's also quick to learn, mainly due to the fact he doesn't pay attention when told what to do so he has to figure it out himself.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Character flaws: Extremely quick tempered. Weylin also lacks the patience to explain things to people. He'd rather jump straight to the point during instructions. He also tends to let people's opinions about himself matter too much. Weylin's also rather rash and does things without fully thinking it through.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Mannerisms: [unsure of at the moment, leaning toward the talking with the hands sort of guy].

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Peculiarities: Even though Nótt can't truly speak back, he's grown into the habit of talking to her.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Biggest regret: The day he had to go on his spirit journey and Nótt chose him.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Minor regrets: Not trying harder to be friends with his brother.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Biggest accomplishment: The same as his biggest regret. Regardless of the suffering from family withdrawal, he's still happy he has Nótt.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Minor accomplishments: When he learned how to bake a loaf of bread without catching the whole thing on fire.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Darkest secret: [unknown for now]

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Does anyone know? ---

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> How did they find out: ---

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Self-perception:
<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">One word they would use to describe themselves: Impatient.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> One paragraph of how they would describe themselves: "I know I'm not the perfect person, there are plenty of things I could do better. I'm proud of the fact that I don't let my temper control me entirely, but at the same time I know that I let it slip out a lot. I wish I could learn to be more patient with people over the age of ten, but kids are more fun to be around anyways, right? I'm a really hard person to understand at first glance but I feel like if people get to know me, I'm a much better guy".

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">What do they consider their best physical characteristic and why:Weylin considered his eyes to be his best physical trait. He enjoys the fact that they are close to matching Nótt's.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> The worst one? Why? : Weylin considers his worse feature to be his nose. When he was younger, his brother Tyr and himself got into a scrap and Tyr broke Weylin's nose, leaving a permanent bump.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Are they realistic assessments? Yes, at least Weylin understands that he's not perfect.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> If not, why not? ---

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">How they think others preserve them: Weylin thinks that people view him a lot differently. He feels that they think he's strange or different just because of Nótt. He feels like he frustrates people to easily and is a general bother.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> What four things would they most like to change about themselves: <span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">1 : He wishes he could be more like his brother. 2 : He wants to learn to be more patient. 3 : Weylin wants to become skilled in other areas of life besides story telling. 4 : He needs to match how he's viewed on the outside on his personality truly is.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Why? <span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">1 : So his father might accept him better, despite the fact he has Nótt. 2 : It's a good skill to have, especially if he wants to travel. 3 : self-explanatory. 4 : If he wants to become a tribe leader, people need to be able to respect him for who he is.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> If they were changed would they be the same person, why/why not: No, Weylin wouldn't be the same slightly annoying but charming boy that he is.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Would changing of number 1 make them more happy? Why/why not: On the surface, he's be more happy. However, over time Weylin would crack under the pressure.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Interaction with other people:
<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">How do they relate to others:Through stories. Weylin likes to listen to people's stories just as much as he likes to tell him own.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> How are they perceived by strangers: Depending on the stranger's personality, usually as a frustrating sort of person.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Friends: Fellow tribal members, though Weylin views all the kids he watches over as his friends as well.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Wife/husband/lover: Originally betrothed to the lovely Bryn, currently unaware if this is still going to happen.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> The Hero/Heroin: non-applicable.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> How do they view the Hero/Heroine:---

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> First impression of the char: (wouldn't this depend upon the other characters?)

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> why? ---

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> What happens to change this perception: ---

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> What do people like most about this char: Probably the fact that he does enjoy listening to people and attempting to help them out, even if he might screw it up more.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> What do they dislike most about them: His temper. Weylin has the destructive sort of temper, so anything fragile should be kept out of his way.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Goals:
<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Immediate: Learn how to whittle a wolf.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Long term: Either create his own tribe or travel until he finds one that accepts him.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> How do they plan to accomplish them: Traveling, but also by trusting in fate.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> How will others be effected by this: His family will be the most effected, since he will be no longer there to protect his little sister.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Problems/Crisis:
<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">How do they react in a crisis: Depending on the crisis, his reaction changes. Under most circumstances, he panics and turns to Nótt.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">How do they face problems: By turning to Nótt for guidance. If the situation's bad enough, he'll run from the problem.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Kind of problems they usually run into: If he's cooking, it's usually fires. If it's dealing with people and they don't like him, than there's the possibility of fist fights.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">How they react to new problems: The same way he faces them, he either runs or asks for Nótt's help.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> How they react to change: Weylin used to be the poster child for hating change. Now he is more accepting of it since he doesn't have much choice.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">General:
<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Favorite clothing, why: Weylin really has no favorite clothing.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Least favorite, why: The stiff leather vest his mother makes him wear over his shirts for gatherings.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Jewelry: a black leather cuff on the wrist.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Other accessories: a set of arrows along with a bow.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Drives: --

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Where do they live: In a section of Corraidhin that is farther from the sea and closer to Dubhshlaine.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Where do they want to live: Further north in Corraidhin.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Spending habits, why: non-applicable.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> What do they do too much of, why: Weylin has the bad habit of complaining about his life or a situation he's in. At this point it's not even a conscious thing, it's just a habit.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">Most prized possession, why: Nótt. While she's technically not a possession, he wouldn't know what he would do is something happened to her.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> People they secretly admire, why: While he'll never admit it, he admires his brother. Tyr's the best at everything he tries. Weylin wishes he could be like that.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Person they are most influenced by, why: His aunt and uncle. They're the leaders of his tribe and he respects them enough to do as they ask without question.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> Most important person in their life before story starts, why: His family, mostly his little sister because he feels personally responsible for her well being.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;"> How do they spend the week just before the story starts: Just how he spends every other week, hunting, trading, etc.

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica;">**Run In with The Fox :**
One day, while trading near Remia, Weylin was complaining about the fact he had been sent alone to trade. He was telling a merchant about how he felt he had only been sent to go because his family felt awkward with him around or worse, didn't want him around period. Weylin ranted on and on to the merchant seller, basically covering his life story while telling him he wished that his family wouldn't treat him differently anymore. Little did Weylin know, a certain fox was listening willing to make him a offer he couldn't refuse as long as Weylin did a favor in return.
