Some Khadgar things
That are canon but are often forgotten when people talk about how strong and heroic he is. Or paint him like he’s super serious like most of the others.
He sleeps on tables when working late.
He used to spy on Council of 6 meetings when he was a KID back when who was on the council was top secret.
Gets frustrated, angry even, when people don’t admit their feelings for each other.
Knows how to properly cast spells while being intoxicated.
Pees himself when he laughs too much.
Is actually pretty ticklish.
Spent years learning things from A’dal and still doesn’t know what his pocket warmer is really for.
Calls Orcs “strapping” while most every other human describes them as brutish or ugly. Guys listen he called Ariok attractive, Khadgar is Orc trash.
Berates himself and calls himself stupid over and over in his head if he makes a mistake.
Loves Mana strudels. And Wine. Did I mention he knows how to cast spells while intoxicated?
When things don’t go according to plan he goes “FUCK IT” and improvises and does some actually pretty reckless shit impulsively.
He’s reckless with his life because he feels like it’s worthless.
Spends his time trying to encourage others to be heroic leaders and doesn’t see himself as one.
Asks for help even when he doesn’t need it because he’s convinced he’ll just mess up.
Except when he feels like he’s being a burden then he’ll bite off more than he can chew because he feels responsible for how bad things are and ends up failing because he didn’t ask for help.
Knows what it feels like to not have someone around when help is needed and constantly is working on spells to make him available to everybody at a moment’s notice.
He collects artifacts and knowledge and items to study because he loves learning shit but is messy and berates himself for being a “packrat”, guys hoarding isn’t just a bird trait it’s also a sign of depression.
Everybody else gets to act and do dramatic things in revenge or grief while yelling that Khadgar can’t possibly know anything about how THEY feel or how it feels to be betrayed and Khadgar just goes silent and takes it because after years of getting this crap from almost everybody ever since he was a kid he’s just accepted that his feelings, his life doesn’t matter to anyone else so why the hell should it matter to HIM so yeah, he’s going to blow up a damn and barely escape drowning and not eat properly and let things get messy because who cares, right? He’s Khadgar. Mr. Cool as a Cucumber and life of the party. He’s fine. He’s always fine.
There’s nothing.
Wrong.
At all.
Mana strudel?
(AHA. Found it!)
