Personality:
|
The boy is smart,
but often too smart for his own good. Curious, inventive,
imaginative, easily distracted, gregarious. He thinks he
knows everything, and that can get him in trouble. He wants
to be the big brave manly hunter type, but he's really a
waifish, brainy pretty boy. So he makes up for it with mass
destruction and a fascination with battle and big weapons.
He hasn't got a lazy bone in his body, but since most of
his pursuits are viewed as pointless and a waste of time,
he's possibly seen as a bit of an oddball.
Dizzy is trapped
between being a cub and a young adult. He wants to be taken
seriously, he wants Snapjaw to stop treating him as a child,
but he is a child. He's very frustrated about that, and
he's testing Snapjaw's limits.
He's always making
and remaking things. At age 10, he started remaking some
of Snapjaw's crossbows, then he started making even better
ones from scratch. He likes trigger-spring traps, too (boo!),
puzzles, juggling, and string toys. He's working on a kaleidoscope,
and he pesters the shapers in the Holt to help him. He admires
the metalshapers and smiths, as well as the tribe's warriors.
Quirky, jaded
sense of humor. Has Snapjaw's sense of humor, off the wall
and sarcastic. Teen-age Dizzy is always talking back to
Snapjaw, always testing the boundaries, but when it counts,
he obeys. He thinks Snapjaw is a mean ol' stick-in-the-mud,
but a smart stick-in-the-mud. He begs Snapjaw for stories
until the elder kicks him out of the treehome ('Go play
outside!').
Dizzy hopes to
someday be a griffin rider, he loves to go flying, but he's
very happy with his wolfbond right now, has a very strong
bond with her, she's family and best friend to him. He's
a wolfboy, hear him howl.

warrior. 3'9', will grow to 4'1".

History:
|
Birth name, Sunny,
changed when he was 2 because he was always gawking at the
stars and flying griffins and then annoucing, 'I'm dizzy.
His parents died
in a flashflood when Dizzy was 3, and Snapjaw kept him for
some reason.
Discovered his
fire magic when he was 10. Dizzy likes to make things spontaneously
combust with his magic. It's fun and he thinks it's a studly
pursuit. He worries his magical Talent like a sore tooth
-- he wants to push the limits and see how far he can go.
He boasts that he'll scorch a few humans if they ever come
near the Holt. After setting a few small fires that almost
got out of hand, he's much more careful.

Starpath.
