Character Sheet for Gwilhielm Brounie
Species
Grogoch (half-fairy) Vassel (body without a soul)
Character Description
Being born as a crossbreed of Hyuufaulke (humans) and Faerlikinndt (duende) known as a Greougoakh (halfling), Will has lead a double life, living in the human world by starklight (day and night) and the fairy world by twicelight (sunrise and sunset). However something new has entered the local area in both worlds recently, Nondyings (Undead). After he one day finds that he has mysteriously become a Vassel (a body without a soul) his world is changed forever and he must adapt to his changing world. Vassels are weak to mucus, blood and milk, strengthened by preservatives such as spices and salt and immune to holy items such as holy water or blessings. They have the memories and personality of the living person they came from but are not your typical ghoul, vampire or were creature. Capable of healing so fast the swipes with a blade don't even make a cut as the wound is healed behind the blade as it cuts, having no master to work for, not even the devil himself, but still capable of dying from exhaustion or old age, they are an odd one. Will tends the animals and works the fields as a half-fairy loves to do asking little in return. They have many friends of both human and fairy kind and though the undead are new to the area Will knows a lot about them and the other Cryptids (mythological creatures).
Personality
pleasant and cheerful, though well connected on both sides, they aren't universally liked. Extremely hard-working and driven they can overdo it and tire themselves out. A positive thinker, they mean no harm to anyone and like to juggle friendships though they are more like a handyman to most rather than a family friend. Very clued up on mythological creatures and humans they can often be a useful source of reliable information for both sides. Calm and content, they often don't like to interfere with other people's problems directly but can provide advice of the heart and be a shoulder to cry on at times.
Likes/Dislikes
loves to work and help people, dislikes suffering.
Background/History
Will's mother Elizabettha was a human and his father Teourloakh a duende. Elsa promised her child to Terry if he worked her farm for a year. After Terry did his part, Elsa became a nun so she would have no child and Terry would get nothing. However Terry used magic to make Elsa pregnant whilst still a virgin. Terry initially stole the child away but realizing he had made a half-human half-fairy took it back so that it could have a good upbringing. However Elsa succumbed to rapid aging as a byproduct of the virgin birth and Terry stayed by her side and worked the farm until she eventually passed away. Having to look after the baby on his own Terry brought Will up to be a fairy but after several years he couldn't keep it a secret any longer and told Will about his past. Will journeyed to the human world where he found the farm ran by his mother's sister Maerli and her husband Neoune who took Will in like their own child and raised him there for a few years. However Will still felt attached to the fairy world and would sneak out at twilight to live a double life there. Though there was a huge argument on both sides when they discovered what he was doing, it eventually settled and now both sides have come to accept this odd behavior treating it like a divorced family. Now grown, Will is the wise handyman of both worlds.
Relatives/Family
His mother Elizabettha died from extreme aging when Will was young so he was raised by his duende father Teourloakh instead. Later Will learned of his human half and traveled to the human world where he was taken in by Elsa's sister Maerli and her husband Neoune. Secretly they lived a double life between the two sides of their family for years and, though it all came to a head, both sides decided to keep it up for Will's sake. Now grown, he's an independent person and is a handyman to both humans and fairies.
World/Setting
set in a fictional world much like medieval Europe, there are various mythological creatures around including fairies and undead as well as humans. Humans tend to live with their own kind and only interfere with fairy kind when they want something. Fairies however tend to visit the human world uninvited though most don't cause any trouble unless provoked. Undead however are little troublemakers and disliked by both sides as they are a pest to everyone. In the land of Neoursheir, humans and fairies have lived quite happily alongside each other by keeping to their own kind, however the introduction of undead to the area has caused a stir, especially as they aren't interested in keeping out of other people's business.
