Hi all,
I just finished small surmaries of some of the characters in my story. I'd like to know if i'm on the right path and what you think of them. here they are:
Armir One-eye – Armir is a dwarven miner. As his name suggests he only has one eye. In his younger years a shard of rock penetrated his eye as he was mining. Armir is a drunkard. He drinks to drown his sorrow. For in the past he lost his whole family and clan due to a mysterious disease. He is the last survivor of his clan. He loved his wife and children very much. He did a lot of stuff he regrets. His behaviour was so bad that he was exiled by the previous dwarven king. Armir joins Lar in his quest to become king to restore his honour as a dwarf.
Kazu na'ir – Kazu is a troll of the jungles of Janda. He can't talk. For his father cut out his tongue at a young age. His father was a cruel man and this scarred Kazu for life. Kazu wields the spear, and there is no ecual to his skill with it. He also has darts and a blowpipe. He is a hunter by trade, but he dreams of something bigger and the world outside his jungle. He eventualy joins Lar to see the world and experience new things.
Knud the gentle – Knud is a orc. A huge orc as far as orcs go. He is at least one head taller than the largest orc out there. Which is quite large already. Knud is bullied by the other orcs, even though he is quite a bit larger and stronger. He is bullied because he is practically blind. He is useless in the orcish community because of his bad eyes. Knud is a gentle soul. He does not like to fight. But you should not get on his bad side. For even the bravest man would be scared if he gets angry. Knud desperately wants to be of use. Therefore he joins Lar. He turns out to be a faithful companion.
Bibi – Bibi is a munchkin. Like all munchkin she is a coward. But as it turns out she falls in love with Lar. This is why she joins him. She is useless. But it turns out she is a great healer. Although her means are not very unconventional. For example to cure a cough she hangs a dried dead rat around the neck of the victim. Surprisingly it works. She carries all kinds of items in her large ragged bag. Anyone of the items is to cure some kind of ailment. She is also the one that saved Armir from the disease that killed his family.
Wendel – Wendel is the grandfather of Lar. Like lar and his father he is of the line of heroes. The only long lived humans in the world. But age has caught up with him. He is one hundred something.
He has become a grumpy old man. But he teaches his grandson to fight. As is the tradition. After that he joins Lar. For his lessons never end. In reality he just wants to be with the only family he has left. His own son Cardell is preoccupied by more important matters. So Lar is the only one he has left.
Shiva Wildmane – Shiva is one of the sly cat people. Her father is the ruler of the beastribes. She is the youngest of twelve children. Probably also the weakest. But beware of her nails. She is her fathers favorite. His spoiled little princess. She is lazy and only wants to have fun. She has a weak spot for Lar and joins because she finds him interesting, or so she says. Perhaps she is just there to win his heart. She actually becomes a valuable member of the team.
Wyneth – Wyneth is a lundir. One of the elven kind. She is not capable to do shadow magic, like her kin. Which puts her in a disadvantage. But she learned the art of swordplay. Her rapier is quite deadly. She is also a kleptomaniac. Steals every thing she finds. This causes a lot of discomfort in the group. She also constantly argues with Armir. She joins Lar by mistake. She stole his ring. For this crime she must be punished. She does not want to go to jail so to repay for her crime she joins Lar.
Dolri – Dolri is one of the aarda. A subterranean race that mastered the art of teleportation. He is a studious character. And he uses his intellect to pull pranks on the others. He is a very annoying man. But so are all the aarda. They have their own sense of humour. He is not a warrior. But he can inflict a lot of hurt with his teleporting. In a fight he is usually the distraction. To the enemy as well as to his friends. He follows Lar and his friends around as a stalker. Eventually he is accepted as one of the companions.
Please let me know what you think. I tried to give them all some flaws. Please hit me with any questions you might have. thanks in advance
