Thoughts about Ronon
Dec. 5th, 2014 12:12 pmFor the December meme, a question by ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
tielan: What's your headcanon/backstory about Ronon Dex?
Ronon <3 One of my favorite SGA characters. I was introduced to SGA by a Ronon fan so the first episode I saw was "Runner."
I don't have a lot of fixed headcanon for characters, things that I decided are true about a character/something in my head. I often shift it around from fic to fic, or there are several things I could imagine but that I'm pretty flexible about.
For Ronon it's only two certain things: one, he didn't plan to become a soldier before the Wraith came. He originally wanted to become something else - a poet, or a scholar, or an engine driver, idk.
And he's much smarter than he's sometimes portrayed on the show. He knows what a mission report is and why they're useful, things like that. He likes to mess with people, that's canon, and let them underestimate him.
I wrote some short fics about backgrounds I could imagine for Ronon: Five people Ronon has loved and Five things Ronon never told anyone about Sateda. I still like the ideas: that Ronon had a twin sister with beads in her hair, that Sateda had a large engine system, huge dragonflies, and colorful cotton candy. Brothers and Comrades in Arms is a story I wrote about what Ronon could have become and what I think he'd be able to accomplish.
