Extension of character information – with pictures!
As part of the expansion of the website, I focused on the characters. Not just the main characters, but the sub-characters as well. I combined a few resources and skills to greatly improve the offerings on 6 of the secondary characters within the first book, The Exceptional Trunk. Let’s review them here!
Analei Terrein
Age: 77 (Born 889 LY)
Analei (ann-a-LAY-eye)
Matriarch of the overthrown House of Eirgana, Daughter of Duke Sceilarno Ferreriya. Wife of the late Asiladus Terrein, mother of the disappeared Seranoi Terrein. Analei carries the immense weight of her family’s history, their lost status, and personal tragedies. She possesses extensive knowledge of Zephron, Jasari, the family’s connection to key artifacts, the history of Eirgana, Sceilarno’s fate, and Asiladus’s long search for the Lost Papers.
Engyata Terrein
Age: 38 (Born 928 LY)
Engyata (en-GYA-ta)
Mother of Yaresch, wife of the disappeared Seranoi Terrein. She married into the family line and does not possess any of the Royal bloodline. Engyata is brave and resilient, having endured her husband’s loss and her own capture. She possesses family and historical knowledge. Though critical of Yaresch, she has a deep unsettled pain from the loss of her husband. Resentment of the lost papers and the search for the lineage drives a wedge between her and her Mother-in-law, Analei.
Rhett
Age: ~51 (Born ~915 LY)
A skilled and experienced woodsman, tracker, and fighter, possibly with past militia experience on Treggor. He is practical, brave, and highly knowledgeable about wilderness survival and combat. Rhett lives in an encampment near Elysium Lake in northern Treggor. He was a close friend of Seranoi Terrein and feels a deep sense of responsibility (and perhaps guilt) for not joining Seranoi’s final, fatal quest for the Lost Papers.
Dante
Age: 36 (Born 930 LY)
A skilled and loyal man, formerly one of Rhett’s closest and most trusted allies. He is pragmatic, experienced in combat and survival.
Charles
Age: 38 (Born 928 LY)
A respected and feared sailor/pirate leader in Port Rentai, often seen with a toothpick. He is calm, calculating, and fundamentally self-serving, viewing others as assets or obstacles.
Smitty
Age: 40 (Born 926 LY)
A tall, aggressive sailor, often seen in Port Rentai, recognizable by his hat with a yellow band. He is a subordinate of Charles and acts with belligerence, especially when his ego is bruised.
