Now that I'm 80,000 words/11 chapters into my novel I have quite a few characters. Here are some of my favs:

  • Angus (the main character): gay disaster who decides to literally go to another dimension with no way back because his crush is mad at him and a talking box tells him to. Jack of no trades, master of fuck all. Cannot be a good person no matter how hard he tries. Is 12.

  • T'mazin De Villiers: Chairman of the Guild of Merchants, Tax Collector General and Head of HR at the Disgruntled Shopkeepers Association. Icon and hero to me.

  • Janus: man trapped in the body of a polecat who can shapeshift back into a man. Loves to drop silly riddles and puzzles and then dip.

  • Queen Carenza: has never felt a human emotion a day in her life I don't think. Absolute fish of a person. Will only wear the colour white.

  • Frankle: gets so angry about a fake vampire that he threatens to fight a priest about it then a few chapters later creates a comic book about how much he hates this priest.

  • Edger the rube: uses synthetic magic so much he turns blue.

  • Leni: soldier in training who goes awol the first chance she gets. Obsessive rule follower but will do stupid things when she's mad like trying to kiss a gay man or betraying her only friend because another gay man told her to.

  • Cornelius "Cornie": cabbage merchant who accidentally becomes king of one of the largest trading kingdoms by being really nice to a few cult members one time.

  • Quentin Dilbert Jr: apothecary owner who gets robbed because he tests a "suggestabili-tea" potion on himself after a single prompting by an actual child.

  • The Great Wizard Sinrith: grumpy old conman who wears eyeliner and has never been at peace a day in his life. Is a terrible wizard and refuses to say the words "I'm sorry" no matter what.

  • Mayor Left Wright and Lord Right Wright: brothers who I named that specifically because I think it's funny.
