Zander Grace : Singer/Entertainer : Male Zander

Name: Zander Grace

Age: 21 Years Old (Mid Summer)

Gender: Male

Distinguishing features: Cute when he pouts, Feminine appearance, Musical voice

Hair Color: Black

Eye Color: Black

Description: Zander stands at 5' 10" and weighs 138 lbs. Upon first impressions, most people think that Zander has a feminine fragility about him, as if he would topple down should someone accidentally brush by him. However, beneath that fragile facade is a strong body. If he was of a mind, his fragile seeming arms could easily lift twice or even thrice his body weight.

He has short straight fine black hair as well as black eyes which are very expressive of his every feeling and emotion. He has a youthtful face that belies his real age. His skin is porcelain white, proof that Zander hardly ever goes out to stay under the sun. He tans easily and gets sun burned if he ever forgets to put on any sun block lotion if and when he does go out to enjoy a relaxing day swimming at the lake.

He likes to wear pants with lots of pockets where he can put treats for Elegance. And layered tops like a sleeveless black or white camisole under a long-sleeved tattered/worn-out knitted shirts. He does have a few good looking suits but he rarely wears them unless it is for formal occasions.

Personality: Zander's not cut out for hardwork but he has stubborness and determination to pull him through tough times but that won't mean that he won't be complaining to high heaven as he finished his task. He likes to do his "Pouty Smile" a lot because he thinks that they make him cute. He's probably the only person on Pern who looks adorable and cute when they pout. He does not like to ask for help and would rather figure things out himself. He is friendly and easy to get to know. He doesn't like to boast the fact that his parents were famous musicians. When asked about his parents back on Earth, he stays silent preferring not to answer because he doesn't want to lie about his heritage.

He is a helpful lad in his own way, always thinking of ways to liven things up with his songs in the Mess Hall... or the Dining Hall, now that he has moved in with the others to the Volcano. But try not to ask him to help with hauling stuff and doing physical labor for all you'll get is a pout and a whinny complaint that he doesn't want to break a nail hauling things like a common sea dock worker. No offense to the dockers. However, that doesn't mean that he is a slob, on the contrary, Zander is very much a neat freak and would always tidy things up whenever he can. Elegance's brightly shinning hide is evidence that Zander loves to keep things clean and neat.

Having had to learn to take care of himself when he arrived on Pern, he developed skills that he would normally not have bothered with. First, is his penchant for organizing things. His skin just itches when he sees disorder and disarray in his surroundings. And second, he has learned to be a great cook and loves to cook huge meals that he shares with those he calls friends. Actually, he does help the cooks in the Dining Hall on the days that he is not Singing. Zander knows his taste runs to the same gender and would often flirt with those few people that he thinks are worth his while.

History: Zander Grace was born between two famous Singers, both of which were a member of a highly successful Band. From the moment he was born, he was inundated with music and singing. It was of course no wonder that when he grew up, he chose to follow after his parents' footsteps. He was already humming along to songs before he learned how to talk. His parents being Singers, Zander was brought with all money could buy. And because of this, he has never really had to work for things that he wants in life. After all, he was a Singer even before he was old enough to attend Basic Academy. And since his Singing career was rising, Zander was one of those few children that were homeschooled. He is a bright lad and would probably had earned numerous other doctorate degrees if his heart was not set on being a successful Singer like his parents were. So, he finished an equivalent of Basic Academy education at the age of 10, but he never opted to further his studies.

He was set on making a name of his own and get out of the shadow of his parents' success. But it was hard because his parents were very famous and very well known. He rarely met anyone who actually called out to him by his own name. When he meets strangers, he is always greeted by, "Hey there The Graces Kid." Because of this, he told his agent to search for a way for him to get famous without being always compared to his parents. And his agent found out about the Pern Colonization Project. Zander had to think about whether he wanted to go off planet Earth just to be famous. Besides, he didn't really want to leave his parents all alone. But then, as Fate would have it, his parents gave him the news that he was to be an older brother soon. And that decided Zander. He told his agent to do whatever he could in order for Zander to get a ticket to be one of the Chosen Passengers for the Pern Colonization Project. Zander was not one for teary long good byes so, he didn't even tell his parents about his decision to go off planet. Besides, by that time, his parents would probably be all busy and concerned with caring for his new baby brother or baby sister. He did instruct his agent to let his parents know about his decision after he was off and gone put in stasis with the rest of the Passengers that were bound for Pern.

He was thirteen years old when he took his first step on Pern. And as soon as he did, he knew that he had made the right decision. There was something in the air that seemed to uplift his spirit. He felt unburdened and less pressured with having to surpass the legacy of his parents. At least on Pern, everyone would be in equal footing and for the first time in his life, he was address by his name, Zander. However, life on Pern proved to be difficult for Zander. The reason being, he is unaccostomed to having to do everything for himself. It was a learning experience, to say the least, as he learned how to take care of his basic needs by himself without asking help from anyone. And before you ask, no, he did not agree to be adopted into someone's family even though there were many who offered to have him as part of their family. He was probably the only lad who lived in Landing that was not part of the Military rank and file, after everyone else opted to leave Landing and live in their chosen plots of land.

Maybe the Geneticists felt sorry for him being all alone for they had invited Zander into attending the Firelizard Hatching. Having seen the Dragonets and how useful they seemed to be, Zander accepted the invitation and managed to bond with a Green whom he named Elegance for she acted quite elegantly as if she were a queen. Zander never having a pet in his life at first didn't know what to do with Elegance. But he learned quickly enough from watching how others trained their own firelizards. And soon, he was able to train Elegance and even got her into humming along with him whenever he was humming or singing a song. It was not long that Elegance became part of his act whenever he was asked to sing during dinner to entertain those who came to eat in the Mess Hall.

However, Chaos arrived by the name of Thread, and in an instant, Zander's life changed ever after. With most of the population decimated by Thread, the survivors moved back to Landing to consolidate resources and device a way to defend themself from Thread. Zander had been safe in one of Landings buildings, the Mess Hall in fact for he was getting ready for his singing gig with Elegance. All was quite peaceful, it had been a beautiful bright day and then, without warning, all hell broke loose. Elegance, normally a quiet firelizard errupted in a frantic hissy fit as she projected the words, 'STAY INSIDE. DANGER OUTSIDE.' before she promptly disappeared right before his eyes. Those with him in the Mess Hall wondered what that was all about. Some, just shrugged their shoulders and were on their way out of the Mess Hall when Zander barred the way and empathically said no and that Elegance had told him that there was danger outside. Of course, he didn't know what danger was outside, but he trusted Elegance and he stopped anyone from trying to leave the Mess Hall. And pretty soon, the evidence of danger finally made itself known, Zander was horrified at the sight and turned his head away from the scene of destruction.

When the danger passed, it was all thanks to Zander's stubborn determination not to let anyone out of the Mess Hall that saved everyone who had been there. But ultimately, Zander knew that it had been Elegance who saved them all for she was the one that told him of the danger outside. In fact, she had gone outside to help defend the Mess Hall with her wild Dragonet brethren, flaming Thread as they came close. After the incident, volunteers for sled pilots were asked for, but since he had no knowledge of sleds, much less how to fly one, he didn't volunteer. He did help by keeping moral up, singing songs in the Mess Hall to liven things up with Elegance humming along with him. He was approached by a Geneticist to stand for the upcoming Dragon Hatching but, Zander politely declined the offer thinking that he was not worthy. He would rather let those with sled piloting skills have the chance to be at the Hatching than he himself, who didn't even know how to fly a sled.


Pets (limit of four)

Name: Elegance

Species: Firelizard

Breed: Green

Age: 3 Years Old (Summer 7 AL)

Description: Elegance is a dainty little green. She is a dark green the color of emeralds with a lighter green underbelly. She has a lime green colored wingsails with dark green veins and ribbing. She is a large green from among her clutchmates. She has the slight build of an agile flyer and the sturdiness of muscle to give her endurance for long mating flights.

Personality: Elegance is as whiny about having to haul stuff as Hers is. She does love to sing and will usually croon a greeting at everyone instead of warbling like most firelizards do when they greet strangers. She loves to fly and the only physical activity that she will never complain about. She does not like to walk if she can help it, making Zander carry her, if they are within tight places with no room to fly overhead.
