__________________IN-DEPTH STUFFPhysical Description: A rather physically unassuming small creature, he is mostly passed over until he begins to speak. His voice is his most significant and striking feature, able to captivate and ensorcel. He currently wears a cloak woven out of forgotten sorrows, a gift from a friend who appreciated his work.
Image removed. Please read our art usage policy. Thank you! musicPersonality: A bit neurotic and very changeable, his connection to the stars and the night sky is what defines his behaviour. On full moon nights, he is an eloquent erudite who can charm a stone, on new moon nights he's reclusive and moody. The stars are a smaller, yet constant influence, subtly manipulating his behaviour as well.
Magic/Abilities: - The usual faerie abilities of flight and subtly nudging nature
- An accomplished bard and musician, with a beautiful singing voice and a good head for rhymes
- Capable of playing several instruments, although his favourite is a harp
Relationships[:/b]
- Has at least passing familiarity with most of the Dreamhaven court
- A gaggle of adoring fans
History:
Madwyn's mother, Caerwyn the Candlelight did not have a happy relationship with her husband Gwalchmai. At first, she openly bragged about tricking the great warrior into marriage and basked in the envy of other women. Yet soon she learned that there was a downside to her choice. Gwalchmai held little interest in women (or men, for that matter), all he cared about was winning glory by taking on greater and stronger threats.
Rejected and lonely, Caerwyn decided to try and make her husband jealous. She claimed to be courted by the constellations themselves, inventing stories of how the Great Hunter lay his sparkling belt at her feet, how the seven sisters all fought among themselves for her attention. Yet despite fooling most of the court, he still wouldn't look at her.
No one in Dreamhaven even thought that the child was Gwalchmai - he has departed several years ago on a quest to slay a dragon, he couldn't have possibly even visited his wife's bed. It was simpler to attribute Caerwyn's state to one of her celestial lovers, maybe even make a few guesses on the identity. The child was named Maldwyn, 'brave friend', as she hoped that her child could be a close companion to her.
She didn't want to be that kind of parent who would neglect him the way Gwalchmai neglected her, so she ended up being a very responsible and supportive mother. She recognized his talent early on and traded favours to get him musical training. He learned how to play several instruments and soon was working on his own pieces. The day he was offered a position of the royal minstrel in the court was the proudest day of her life.
Character Limitations: He's up for pretty much everything! I'd still appreciate if you let me know if you want to stab him, since I'd have to figure out the colour of his blood.
