He has straight black hair that's about three inches long on top and it tapers down so it's pretty neat and trim. It's got quite a bit of body at Fort since it's more humid than Keroon, and it's taking a bit for him to get used to it. His eyes are dark blue that fade to grey depending on his mood.

Background: Despite the fact that his mother died when he was only 5 turns old, Rendan had a very happy childhood. His father was very attentive as was his uncle Noonan. He got along fairly well with his brother and sister, aside from the sibling spats they had. Rendan also grew to be taller than Artem, so he couldn't bully him for long. He also had lots of wonderful foster mothers at Keroon, since his father was always well liked and no one wanted to see him upset or overworked.
At the age of ten, Rendan was apprenticed to the beasthealer craft, like his father and uncle before him. As his affinity lay toward runners, it was decided that he should primarily study with his Uncle Noonan so he could get a little more tailored apprenticeship than the general studies students. Because he was more interested in the care, training, and breeding of racing runners, he was sent to work with Master Alynna, the foremost master in Pern's runner breeding and training specialty. It was then that he met herder Kaki, a girl not very much older than him, but with a much higher rank. Although, he did want to like her, for beastcrafters are generally an easygoing and close-knit bunch, they did not hit it off. Rendan just could not get over the fact that she moved through the ranks so quickly and easily while he had to work hard every step of the way. After four turns of hard work, he attained the rank of senior apprentice. He was promoted to journeyman at turn 21's Turn's End.
Rendan has been working hard and truly loves his craft. He expects to be promoted to senior journeyman in another year or two or three, after he's journeyed a bit. He's excited about being so close to Ruatha, and hopes to spend a lot of time there working with the runners. He also hopes to spend a little less time away from his father and with some friendly Weyr girls, since he had no chances for much of that at Keroon. Poor guy.
Personality: Rendan is very easygoing, and is popular with the students his age at the Beastcraft Hall in Keroon, so I'm sure he'll transition well at Fort. He's quick to laugh, but sometimes wears a frown when he is studying or trying to be serious. I expect he'll be the fatherly type, if it ever comes to that. He can be very protective of foals or runners he believes to be vulnerable, so I'm sure that will translate into his relationships with young women and eventually his children. He's extremely dedicated to his craft and is willing to talk about it to anyone who will listen. He turned out to be something of a womanizer, so I'm not sure how that will go.
Dress: At work, Rendan wears things that are as comfortable and as sturdy as possible. Dark colors are best because they hide stains and strong wherhide riding boots with reinforced toes are what he prefers. While working he'll have his farriers kit with him (a big, brown, beat up bag full of replacement nails, hammers, and temporary runnershoes, as well as a gelding knife, and other equipment necessary for a runner healer who's often in the field). After work, on rest days, or at meals taken in the dining cavern, he will change into something much more presentable, for he does care about his appearance. He usually wears jewel tones (dark green, dark blue, deep reds, golden tones, etc.), as they look best on him.
Weapons: When not carrying his farriers bag, he'll wear a plain belt knife. Probably with a black handle. He doesn't really wear any jewelry.
Craft: beasthealer craft
Rank: journeyman
Specialty: The care, training, and healing of racing runners, although he is also skilled in general animal medicine from spending so much time with his father. He also has a small skill in the smithcraft, as he often has to forge his own runnershoes, nails, and other metal tack items.
Masters: Noonan, Alynna, Jenunn, and Kaki
