Viktor
Silence descended upon them, letting only thought move. Viktor fingered his sling and waited for the sound of heavy footsteps.
Rough leather between his fingers, smooth stones at his belt. He glanced at Alya. She clutched her torch and gave him something like a smile.

Elishavet Elroi replied to the topic How to make a side character more interesting? in the forum Characters 2 years, 7 months ago
Ah, good question. I’m far from an expert on this, but I have been in a similar situation with some characters.
His name was Reúven, my MCs closest friend who in some ways was like a mentor. He was also on the edge of being perfect and flat. He wasn’t really human.
So I stepped back and looked at his character. After a bit of…[Read more]

So, I’m still working on my playlists, which is why I haven’t shared any songs yet.
But I really want to share some!!! So, here we are.
Oh, by the way, @Koshka and @lydia-s You have good taste. 😉 Sight and Sound is awesome! They’re one of the first I go to for bookish songs.
Also, I have had a hard time getting songs for my…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12 @emilysf @koshka
Yes, I do. Unfortunately, the extreme busyness that has kept me mostly off here for the past week continues. This why I am once more quite belated, despite having started (and nearly finished) a response multiple times.
However, here it one is! May it fill the needs it needs to.
Alyona

@godlyfantasy12 @emilysf @koshka
I’m sorry I haven’t responded. We’ve been busy preparing for like, four different things coming up. Although I’ve started a reply twice, neither were finished.
So! Here goes.
Alyona
Thankfully, the lady took it. She looked much better off wrapped in thick wool.
Alyona knew what a sacrifice it was for her…[Read more]

I don’t know. I think they’re about to run into the other group just now, but after that, who knows?

@emilysf @godlyfantasy12 @koshka
Ok, so now my characters are in an interesting predicament, as I’m trying to get a former hand on both of them.
This may get most interesting.
Alyona
“I… I … don’t. I’m…” the stranger fumbled for words, becoming less formidable by the second. A draft blew down the passage causing Alya’s light to dance and the…[Read more]

Elishavet Elroi replied to the topic Character Castle! in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 8 months ago
Okay! I do kind of want Alyona and Viktor to join the group again. Partially because there may be some interesting potential yet to be explored there, and also because I almost want to see what would happen if my protagonists run into my Villain. As far as I know, they never do in the books. Or rather, when they do, it’s like…[Read more]

Elishavet Elroi replied to the topic Character Castle! in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 8 months ago
Of course!
Alyona Mynclais, second MC/central side character
3 cubits in height. XD okay, maybe that’s a little bookish. I’m still world building y’all!
So, 5′ in height, with dark hair and eyes, she is twelve at this point in the books.
I haven’t taken her personality test yet, but this is what I know. She is loyal to her…[Read more]

Elishavet Elroi replied to the topic Character Castle! in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 8 months ago
Yes, the castle has basically come under the government of my villain, who may show up again soon. So, in a way, my characters “know” more about this castle than anyone else… except they don’t, because I didn’t make this castle. 😉
Alyona and Viktor could and probably would show you to the kitchens. They know their way around here…[Read more]

@emilysf @godlyfantasy12 @koshka
Bwahahaha! I love how all these characters interact. XD
Alyona
A gasp leapt into her mouth. This person wanted to help them?
A mere glance showed her to be between Viktor and herself in height, but this wasn’t what struck Alyona.
The girl was dressed in rags. Brightly dyed rags, but still not very adequate.…[Read more]

Viktor
They gained the out leading corridor, passing side halls with rapid succession. Soon there would be a narrow window and they’d have some light.
How he hungered for that light!
Their pursuer was still there, but much less frightening. He nearly scolded himself for bolting in the first place. Nearly.
As…[Read more]

Okay, so it deleted my response, I don’t know if the original will pop up later as well, but I’m going ahead and posting this, since I thankfully have the story part saved.
I also don’t know how well this one worked out, but here goes!
By the way, Milla sounds nice! Unfortunately, she has a talent for spooking…[Read more]

Milla sounds nice! Unfortunately, she seems to have a talent for spooking my charries. XD It’s not her fault though.

They were close, so close. He could feel the draft from the approaching door.
Thankfully Alya hadn’t been injured in her…[Read more]

Hmm, that’s a hard question. There are so many books I’d like to momentarily forget the plot twists of so I could enjoy the surprise again. Especially when listening to these books with other people and trying not to spoil anything.
Just off the top of my head, though, I’d say the Wingfeather Saga, The Green Ember series, or the…[Read more]

Ugh. Talk about the author’s/reader’s nightmare. I avoid watching any movies based off books I love – even if the author helped direct it! XD
For my first series, they would definitely make up some love interest characters, maybe even change one of my character’s backstory from having lost a sister to having lost a, well not a sister.…[Read more]

Elishavet Elroi replied to the topic What Makes An Allegory Impactful? in the forum Mission, Calling & Ethics 2 years, 8 months ago
Allegories!!! (As opposed to allergies which is what auto correct wants to change it to)
First off, hooray! Go for it!
But now on to business. (Or perhaps better described as a long rambling of my thoughts)
What are my favorite allegories?
I like Biblical retelling type allegories, but as I don’t know what specific type you’re doing,…[Read more]
