1. Lathen: A Volandum healer and follower of the Prince. His EiL is that it is man’s relationship with the Prince that defines his worth, not a name or power or blood or anything else. He helps tend Ethaniel toward the end of the book, as Ethaniel working on consolidating his own recent revelation that any kind of name is meaningless without the…[Read more]

@daeus Nice count! I copied down 4 pages worth of transitional phrases (because I really should use more of those) and logged all my characters.
@winter-rose @ethryndal @r-j-Anderson @northerner @graciegirl @Audrey-caylin @overcomer @jess @aella I’m still going. -

@kate-flournoy Gair IS NOT a minor character. Don’t you dare cut his role in any way.

I’m going to go with Jagger in Fidelyon. He’s the… well, the side-kick, I guess (don’t tell him I said that; he’d not forgive me).
Anyway, he’d follow the first type, because his arc mirrors Ethaniel’s. While Ethaniel starts with not having a name, Jagger actually has a disgraced name. But while Ethaniel places importance in gaining a name and…[Read more]

One fun way of connecting major characters is to give them the same goal, but different EiLs so that they are in constant tension about how to do something or what is the best way to get something done. They could be friends or they could be antagonists, but either way one can get quite a bit thematic depth between the interaction of…[Read more]

@aratrea Er…It’s an ice-cream giving frog. Not so bad, right? You’re the Wiser (Gandalf like character), Josiah Degrande, and its a long story. 😛
@jane-maree @daeus isn’t really an evil king. He just doesn’t want to see his kingdom destroyed by dragons or by the evil lord and his trolls. -

Oh yeah, nearly forgot. I wrote 934 words.

@jane-maree @kate-flournoy @daeus Well, I’m done for tonight. I finished the tale, the rough draft, at least. All that’s left is to edit it.
Nobody give @aratrea a frog! 😛 Actually, Daeus, the frog gave you ice cream in the story. -

@kina-lamb Great! Glad your liking that dare. 😀

@jane-maree Okay, you know what, I have to include that now. 😛

@daeus Grumpy in that the world is pitted against you. Josiah Degrande (the Wiser) @aratrea and his pet frog do a good job at annoying you.
@jane-maree Hahahaha! Something like that. 😛 -

@kina-lamb @jane-maree I have an audience, then.
@kate-flournoy I thought that…and figured I didn’t want him melting my chair. -

@daeus Yes, your Majesty. 😉
@kate-flournoy I’m not quite sure how you’d go about doing that, but if you insist. (I do plan to post it, as soon as I make Daeus not so grumpy all the time in it) -

@kate-flournoy Both. I’m writing, and handing out pizza. Pizza’s awesome. Actually, I’m finally finishing that story I started so long ago, about @daeus as king. So close to being done. 😛 There are so many parts of it though. Should be 7 or 8 when I’m done.
