selena more of an assassin vibe but she’s no stranger to going rogue, doing what she thinks is right. If that requires someone to die? So be it, she won’t bat an eye. Of course, this is her evolved form—whether she always was like this but didn’t know it or if she changed, we can’t be for certain.

dariyan he has his...tendencies to be a bit too violent, even cruel, when battling, foe or friend. Sometimes fighting can go too far, and so if he left a few dead in his wake, well, that’s to be expected until he gets it under control. He’s not proud of it, but he understands his flaws.

ivani selena and ivani are similar in regards to being willing to do what has to be done, whether it’s seen as moral or not. She’d probably be one of the best at keeping her killing under the radar, because you wouldn’t think something was off.

vera she’s a very bright, fun, daring girl, yet she does enjoy fighting; she loves to go beserk with her battleaxe. She’d have bloodlust, and she, like dariyan, may go on a rampage but they’d be caught fairly soon. Unlike dariyan, I don’t think she’d ever go crazy on her allies, I think her bloodlust would be strictly for enemies.

reís that he’s wrong about himself; that he’s not enough. He stepped into the champion game late and so he wonders if he’s even suited to be a hero or if he fits in. He tries hard, but sometimes he pushes himself to his limit to try and prove his worth to himself.

dariyan losing control. Though he is a good man with some less than desirable social qualities, there are sometimes when battling that he becomes...ruthless, and he freezes his opponents in horror. He’s afraid of letting it get the better of him, that the gods will throw him out for his tendencies, but he’d sooner drive his sword through his heart than admit it to anyone.

adoran failing the innocents he swore to protect. He wanted to be a champion so civilians could walk safely, and with a war on the horizon, he’s horrified at the thought of villages being raided and families being slaughtered.

selena secretly and over time, she fears caring too much. As her resolve begins to harden and she decides what she must do, she realizes she can’t get too attached to those around her. Her brother, her friends, her love interests—she has to keep them at arms length if death is always knocking at their door, and she may come close herself of her own free will.

vera her friends dying, being helpless to save them. She knows she’s good with her axe, and so the very idea that she can’t use it to help those closest to her terrifies and angers her.

amira reading someone wrong. She always thought of herself as a good judge of character and easily adaptable, but she’s afraid of trusting someone she shouldn’t, or calling someone a comrade who would sooner stab her than have her back.

yvette has imposter syndrome so she’s afraid of being called out as a fraud, being looked down upon; she’s afraid of her own selfishness.

vaush has a minor fear of drowning, so when out hunting, he always stuck to the thinner parts of the stream. Overall pretty fearless, but can’t handle the thought of vera dying.

ivani that they won’t win the war. She is always looking at the bigger picture, which is easier for her since the war is the only reason she left the mages to pursue the group of champions. She has a deep rooted fear of their kingdom falling to the gods or their enemies, and so she always keeps a sure hand on her saddle to keep them all from sinking.

Thank you so much. <3333

I know it’s been a long time, I just never expected JDWM to become the beast it has. It takes up so much of my time, not that I’m complaining. But I have been actively writing the rough draft for the next chapter of TWOTB, and I fully intend to make that my next priority.
