Friends of Nimrodel: Tapestry of Dreams - Discussion

[mark12_30]

littlemanpoet,

Thanks for the clarifications and suggestions. We'll work as a team to bring out the complexity and subtlety of Ædegard's character. Our current tendency to oversimplify him is partly my fault for making him so cranky in my first couple of posts. I do apologize. Please let me know if there is anything in the older posts-- or any of my posts-- that I should soften or deepen, and I will hasten to edit!

Reading your post makes me wonder if he has some similarities to Ravion-- great heart, gruff troubled exterior. (Must be a guy-thing. How's that for an unsubtle oversimplification???)

...okay, I repent in dust and ashes: "Mea culpa." I will try to be better at getting inside his head, and seeing (and portraying) the compassion he hides. He was the first one to champion my crazy blacksmith, after all.
