Hello everyone and happy Father's Day,
It seems like in most fantasy stories both parents are either dead or are just never mentioned.
So, I thought for Father's Day I would make a post containing fathers of fictional characters, not necessarily the fathers of characters from my most recent projects, but father characters I came up for my other characters:
Sycamore
He is the father of Elm, and is a dryad who possesses nature magic.
Wherever he walks plants grow, and birds and other animals come out of hiding.
He is a very calm person, and doesn't really fight, unless he has to.
And when he does fight, he ties his enemies up in vines or has animals tackle them.
Ferdinand
He is the father of Arnia.
He is a sorcerer who keeps the blue jewel safe. He was given this duty a long time ago
and has persisted in it since. Over the years people have tried to steal it,
so they can figure out how to use the jewel's abilities. Only one knows how to use it
but the one hasn't come yet...or so he thinks.
Ardan
He is the father of Riona.
He trains and breeds phoenixes for a living in the green hills of Ireland.
His daughter went on a quest years ago, but hasn't returned.
He isn't sure if something happened on the quest that caused her not to be able to return
or whether she is still on the quest.

Which character is your favorite?

Ardan is my favorite. And the "in most stories the parents are dead" is SO true. Like, it's super sad for orphans in real life but does everyone HAVE to be an orphan????
ReplyDeleteThank you. Agreed there are a LOT of orphans in fiction, and often times the parents don’t come into the plot at all.

Thank you, he will probably be mentioned a little in Riona “Fire”’s story. (
