What's his personality normally like? How does he view using his ability (blessing, curse, etc). How does he view other users of secondary magic, users of primary magics, and people who can't use magic?
The above questions will help you decide on the contrast needed for his quirk. Off the top of my head:
- He hates the cold
- He gets sea sick
- He is a narcissist, and thus mocks his opponents and complains/over-reacts everytime his body gets injured by the cold
Hmmm, he seems like a pretty non-funny character. Have you thought about adding a tag-along character as comic relief instead rather than relying on the main character for it?
It's really hard to have a kind person with a strong sense of justice have some sort of amusing quirk. I mean, you could just have him be really stupid and oblivious to the obvious if you want. He could also be clusmy and prone to screwing up (which may go well with the chaotic nature of the magic).
I'm curious, why does he view primary mages as "backwards"? Does he just not understand why they would want to be mages, or does he view the magic itself as backwards when compared to his?
Kind of an odd mix for someone to be kind/helpful but at the same time feel superior to normal magic users because they feel their magic is outdated. Also odd that he would have a strong sense of justice, yet use forbidden magic. Unless it's just personal justice and not judicial.
It is often believed that great minds think the same... and now i see that indeed they do.
You chose the exact same name for your great adventurer ( Arcanus) as I chose for a pwoerful military leader in a story i'll publish soon, which is in my storygame list and it's called 'Skyron 2: Return of Arcanus"
yes, great minds think alike.
What's wrong with having a 1st person point of view on the site? Homo Perfectus is set in first person. If it was a linear story I would understand though.
I like Endmaster's idea about the doll, except I think it should be a creepy sock-puppet instead.
So walking around naked is cool, but sock puppets cross the line?
Alright then....
Maybe he should wear the sock puppet in a more interesting area....
Was gonna point that out but I wasn't sure how many people would know who he was lol.
