Overall Description: V'ndo isn't the type of guy that stands out in the crowd. He isn't overly tall, kind of average for a male. He's not built very big, but enough so that he can do his craft and be good at it. He's not overly handsome, just enough to interest a lady or two from time to time.

Shaggy, ark brown hair sits atop his head, strands often threatening to fall into his field of vision, but that's a little difficult when he can't really even see the ends of this hair. Dark blue orbs gaze out at the world around him, while heavy brows give him a constant angry look. He has an attractive face and due to his inability to grow hair, he looks younger than his Turns. However, a constant hard look to his eyes and mouth make him seem both unfriendly and a little older.

His body is thin, but toned from many Turns of working with hide and leather.

Overall Description: V'ndo isn't a loner, but he does enjoy the quiet of being alone. As long as he has Nyrr by his side and he can help the Riders of Sabishi Weyr, then he's pretty much happy. Not really one to give up on an obstacle, once he puts his mind to it, he gets the job done.

Background: V'ndo's past is something of a tale. Born the product of a dragon Rise, his mother being a Kinrider and his father is a Dourider. Both were very social in the Weyr, so when he was able to be passed onto a crechewoman, he was. However, the woman that he was passed to wasn't a crechewoman, she was a thief that was selling children to parents that couldn't have children. Being as most Rider's don't pay a lot of attention to their children once their passed off, V'ndo's abduction didn't really go noticed until it was to late and he was already out of the Weyr.

However, V'ndo was adopted by a wonderful couple that hadn't been able to have children of their own; Hagha and Sliorm. They named him after the woman who brought him into their lives. His childhood was one of love and acceptance. When presented with taunts from the other Weyrbrats about how he didn't look like either parent, he asked and was told about his adoption and his real parents. He took the news well but didn't let it change how he saw Hagha and Sliorm as both were still his mother and father.

When V'ndo became of age, he chose the Tanner Craft as his craft of choice. He walked the tables at eighteen and had intended to work under a Master to learn the ropes on how to become a Master himself. However, life changed when a young Dourider walked before him and announced that her dragon had Searched him. But it wasn't just the fact that V'ndo held no resentment toward Riders and their dragons that made him want to go with the Dourider. No, it was the Dou that had Vorendo wanting a new lease on life. He could hear the Dou's mental voice, something that was explained to him as a very special gift by the Dou. Something he wasn't sure he would consider a special gift or a curse upon arriving at the Weyr. With so many dragons in one area, V'ndo soon became over whelmed by the voices.

A few Turns after he arrived at the Weyr, and no Impression made, V'ndo decided to set up a Tanner shop and sell his wears, while also Standing as a Candidate. However, once he reached the age where he couldn't Stand anymore and he stepped out of Candidacy and turned to his craft full time. He had learned to cope with his gift for so long and since no dragon seemed interested in presenting itself for him, he did his best to completely forget about his gift. 

It wasn't until Midori Nagith's and Aoi Keasurath's clutch Hatched, a few Turns after he stepped away from being a Candidate, that he finally Impressed. He had been sitting in the Stands with Nyrr, watching the Hatching when a Chairo called out to him, trying to climb the walls up to him. Tentoth ended up hurting his wing in the process, but V'ndo rushed to his side to help. Since then, the pair has been together.
