The Immortal: Domacridhan of Iona from Realm Breaker 🦌 🌳

@vaveyard do you agree? pls tell me you used the last airbender as a reference when creating these characters. I can write a whole essay on how the characters resemble each other—

Also Dom: *vomits rabbit liver*

Realm Breaker PoVs / Constellations

Dom is an immortal being who has no clue about how mortals work and he’s constantly saying stuff like “immortals do/don’t [...]” and it made him all the more stupid (and adorable???). A lot of the times an immortal is used in a story as the hot love interest, they have very explicit descriptions of their appearance being that of a god (not to say that Dom is not just that). He is not a 500 y/o man prying on young women. He is just so stupid and I want to scream over how happy this made.

Sorasa is, in one word, more than amazing (I can’t describe her with one word and for you to expect so and think I can even describe her at all, is lame). An unapologetic young woman who just survives. Her sarcastic comments added multiple years to my lifespan, thank you very much. Her banter with Dom... [screams in pillow]. She can chop me in pieces for her chicken salad and I’d ask her if she wanted the crisp of bone with that. I would thank the woman.

Corayne might be the most realistic YA fantasy protagonist I have ever met. For fuck’s sake, she has z e r o (0) skill in sword fighting, has no life experience (aside from her trades for her mother), and is forced to save the world. She doesn’t suddenly learn how to defend herself, she needs time for that and that is shown throughout the book, but she is hella motivated to make herself useful. She is so clueless about everything that is going on, I want to tell her that she’s doing great.

Andry is incredibly adorable. My little Uncle Iroh with his tea... :,) I want to give this young man a hug, may I? He’s raised in this very noble environment and has very strong morals to do good, yet he’s stuck with a bunch of idiots, one of which is an assassin and whose first solution is murder, another is a pirate’s daughter and sees no problem in morally questionable decisions, and then you have a brooding immortal who also is guided by honor but eaten up by guilt and has his head hanging low all day long. Somehow, he is the sunshine of the gang with his tea. Good for him. Make your new family tea.

Erida... I looooooveeeeeee love love love love... corruption arc and I cannot wait to see what she’ll do. She is so ambitious and cunning and powerful. The way she screams “Slytherin” is incredible.

Charlon. I’m not going to say anything. His character speaks for himself.

Sigil is the wine aunt and I take no criticism.

Valtik is the crazy grandmother who keeps offering you a strangely smelling plate of food and swears it’s good for you (it probably is)

Also, just one general thing. None of the characters are described as incredibly, unrealistically, and swoon-worthy hot (though they probably are). Their appearance is of so little importance whereas in a lot of other YA stories it seems as if the main characters are all these pretty blue-eyed blondes which pisses me off, but this isn’t. This has representation. Not just in terms of appearance, but also in that of sexuality. I love how the characters as a set are so unique when compared to other YA fantasies.
