#casimir

I really do like writing Casimir as, outside of some half elf angst, being Just Some Guy. The world doesn't bend to his whims. He's perpetually broke, and it's largely his own fault. He's not part of any prophecy or special bloodline. Eventually, he learns to use a little magic, but hes never more than a poor mage. He's an alright enough fighter to feel comfortable traveling alone, but that's more due to being stronger and faster than he looks than any skill. He just decides to get involved in the magic dragon cult bullshit and puts in the work to get better and be useful.

Apart from being quickly murdered, I love it so much that Casimir betrayed all os his long-time friends for the reward of becoming the baron of 3 meters of land and a tiny one-room broken down castle and 2 subjects that couldn't pay any taxes if their lives depended on it. He swapped loyal companions for allies that immediately betrayed him. With absolutely no way back.

I really like the idea of Casimir not quite understanding what he's gotten himself into by telling an anxious dragon that he'll look after his danger magnet partner and then immediately following through on that.
