Hello everyone,
Usually, these types of posts are for characters who have been created recently. However, I felt it was time that I reintroduce some characters that have very recently gone through a lot of changes. The characters are Matilda and Felix Moore from Dolls of Wax, Eyes of Glass. They have developed since I first wrote about them in 2021, and I want to show how they have changed, since I mentioned it briefly in an Inktober post.
I plan to update their character profiles soon, but I decided I should also reintroduce them here via a blog post. So, let's begin:
Felix Moore
Felix is the older of the two siblings. He believes that the world itself is a dream and nothing more. Because of this, he thinks that there is no meaning to life, and all events, actions, etc. that one experiences or takes essentially mean nothing.
He enjoys spending his time reading, thinking about different philosophies, and having discussions about controversial philosophical topics with his group of friends. Due to a situation within their family (which he won't discuss), Felix has gone from being simply a brother to Matilda to having to act as her guardian. This has caused disagreements between them.
Matilda Moore
Matilda is the younger of the two siblings. She is a quiet person; however, she can also turn rebellious if she feels strongly about something. Matilda is a Spiritualist: she believes one can contact people from beyond the grave. She also has an interest in the occult and supernatural. Matilda often likes to daydream about different adventures that she could have, based on her favorite books. And, like her brother, she often spends her time in the library.
However, since Felix has become her guardian, there have been disagreements between them. Mostly, these disagreements come from Matilda's rebelliousness toward her brother, but they are also influenced by Felix's (supposed) desire to keep Matilda safe.

I'm wondering why Felix has become Matilda's guardian. Is she a minor and not yet legally of age? Or if she is an adult, has she been declared mentally incapable for some reason and therefore needs a guardian for that purpose?

ReplyDeleteNow I wonder if "supposed" means that Matilda doesn't believe Felix's motives are pure, or if he truly doesn't have her best interests at heart. Either way, these characters have grown a lot since you first mentioned them. Felix's philosophy is intriguing, and so is Matilda's belief that one can talk to the dead.
