DATE CREATED: July 28, 2003
DATE UPDATED: August 20, 2008
MUNDANE INFORMATION
NAME: Andrea Irving
B'DATE: 9/23/78
ONLINE ADDRESS: Hutchison.andrea@gmail.com
PERSONA INFORMATION
GENDER: male
SEXUAL ORIENTATION: hetero
B'DATE: 197.06.15
CURRENT AGE: 35
PARENTS' NAMES, AGES, RANKS:
SIBLINGS: Collins, age 40, hold heir
SIGNIFICANT OTHERS: Garberend, captain of the Red Seasnake; Master Devaki, captain of the Dauntless
PETS: bronze firelizard named Ace
BIRTHPLACE: Red Sands Hold
HEIGHT AND BUILD: 6’0”, muscular
HAIR COLOR AND STYLE: dark brown, longish
EYES: brown
FACIAL FEATURES: Darcy has a high, noble forehead and a strong chin. He looks like Colin Firth from Pride and Prejudice, Circle of Friends, and Bridget Jones’ Diary.
COMPLEXION: Fair if he stayed inside, but tanned since he works outside
IDENTIFYING MARKS: scars on his hands from turns of rough work
RIGHT/LEFT/AMBIDEXTROUS: right handed
DRESS/FAVORITE COLORS: Darcy works outside a lot, so his clothes are rough, sturdy, and plain. If his father forces him to participate in hold matters, his clothes are plain black, but of impeccable cut and fabric.
JEWELRY/WEAPONS: He carries a belt knife with a plain sheath and handle for utilitarian purposes. He has several, since he uses them a lot and they dull quickly.
GENERAL BACKGROUND: Darcy was born the second son in a holder’s family. His older brother Collins turned out to be a nitwit from an early age, but Mahryl would not choose another heir. Darcy was resentful of this as a young teenager, but soon found he liked life outdoors a lot better than hold politics. He’s not formally crafted in anything, but he’s an able fisherman and farmer. He believes in getting dirty with the rest of the holders and they give him a lot of respect. He enjoys hunting and practicing sword fighting (he’s not bad either). His father gave him a firelizard egg when he was 20 and bronze Ace was the result. He was given a ship when he was 24, and he named it the Red Seasnake. He still farmed, but he concentrated most of his time on fishing and shipping from this time on.
Mahryl has recently been putting pressure on his sons to find wives. Collins is taking this seriously, but Darcy could care less. His dalliances with women have been few and brief, since he considers such relationships immoral. He’s recently made Ista Sea Hold his homeport to get away from his father and brother, since he’s had enough of them for now. Currently attempting to court Lady Miraine of Ista Seahold.
PERSONALITY TRAITS: Darcy is very proper, even when he’s at sea. He doesn’t swear or drink much. He’s strong willed and honorable. He disapproves of immorality, and shuns those he considers to be immoral. He is very intelligent and a hard worker. His integrity and honesty are unquestionable, and he is very fair when settling disputes. He’s not very well liked by many people because he’s a bit stuffy, but he’s respected by everyone.

HOLD INFORMATION
HOLD: Red Sands Hold

RANK: minor hold
RESPONSIBILITIES: Red Sands Hold is a prosperous minor hold. There is a very minor smith crafthall that caters to the glass smiths just outside the hold proper.

Other buildings are divided into hold workers quarters, crafters quarters, guards barracks, buildings for the individual crafts, and cots for the important people of the hold (master crafters, the steward, guests, etc.).
