In a short story that I am close to finishing, I'm having trouble finding a name by which I can refer to a character when it feels repetitive to use his name.
This character's name is Baalech, and he's guiding the protagonist to his destination. The protagonist said, "Do not make me wish I hadn't trusted you, gatekeeper." I used this simply because I wanted to avoid repetition is his name is mentioned in the line above, which is it was. I changed "gatekeeper" to "Baalech" for now, because they actually travel to a a large guarded gate. Quite confusing, you see? I didn't plan that out.
What occupation can I use to refer to Baalech? I was going for either "wanderer", but anyone could be called that, really.
You can tell I'm almost finished because this is really quite a small detail.
