Could you info dump on Fenton pretty please :33 (I love him very much)

HI I LOVE YOU!

okay so lemme break this down so it’s easy for my to brain dump

BE WARNED THIS GOT LONG AS HELL RIP (yeaaaah it got loooong)

^^^anyways here’s the boy for those who don’t know (i lvoe him 💚)

-backstory

Fenton was born to two young adventurer loving elves, as such they were prone to leaving him under the care of their close family friend: Al the fisherman. So while his parents were away he’d help Al with his trades (Al is like if amazon caught fish on the side, he handles like all of the kingdom’s imports) or he’d be helping out in the castle, aiding Al’s friend(?) (maybe more? idk yet) the groundskeeper. As such he developed good connections with good people from a young age. Everyone loved the sweet little errand boy who would gopher around the castle. So when Fent’s parents didn’t return from an adventure one day, no one was surprised to find that Al had adopted the shy boy.

Fenton was young enough to not remember his parents much (i’m keeping him trauma free (for now)) growing to have the castle and sea as second homes. And eventually he came to be a confident teen, no longer the small kid hiding behind a mop of blond hair. So it was obvious that the boy was destined to be a knight; with the kingdom’s ruler Zelus taking a shine to the lad, and his intimate knowledge of the layout; him joining was inevitable. But he really didn’t want to be a knight, realising his dreams too late to follow them. So instead of becoming a tailor like he wished to, he found himself as a royal guard, watching over Zelus’ secret son as she raised him to be king.

Eventually he grew a strange fondness for the routine of the castle, indulging in tailoring as a fun past time. But his lack of love for the job slowly festered as the new king: Kay forced the kingdom into a vicious war. The kingdom was leaking resources, unable to maintain itself after Kay had viciously severed their connections to the other kingdoms. Fent found himself pulling away, his relationship with the king- the same teen he had practically grown up with- was strained to an irreparable degree.

So when he found himself wrapped up in a quest to save the king’s late brother, he knew he was in for a wild ride.

-connections and family

Okay so time for his friends and stuff i’ll list their name and a lil bit about his relationship with them yk

Al: Father figure and adopted parent. Fent sees Al as his dad, despite their lack of blood connection, and will often help the man with his work, when he himself wasn’t busy in the castle, and Al wasn’t away traveling.

Herbie: Friend and colleague. Herbie works as the king’s advisor and assistant (though kay really doesn’t listen to her much). The two bonded over their time in the castle, becoming friends after a while of working together. Eventually confiding in eachother their concerns of the war and supply shortages.

Kay: The king. When the pair were younger, Fent was close with the boy, however when Kay started throwing himself into the war, Fent realised that he had changed. This was not the boy he knew.

Dean: Ghostly companion. During the majority of the swords and spirits plot, dean acts as a companion, following Fent around due to being tied to the sword the knight possessed, they become friends, and after his resurrection get closer, but for now they’re just the knight and his silly ghost pal! :D

(these are the key plot relevant ones i think sooooo imma move on before i die of boredom listing every character ever lmao)

-role in story and personality

Fent acts as the protagonist throughout the story, and though he isn’t too bright; he’s good with his hands and can think on his feet. His experience as a knight helps him with the many trials they face throughout the events of the story.

The story focuses a lot on his dynamic with Dean and the secrets of Dean’s past, so a lot of it is just him being a silly guy and people liking him. He tends to think with his heart not his head and is incredibly loyal (part of the reason he hasn’t completely turned on Kay or left his position within the castle).

-other

He’s vegetarian! Fenton’s like religious due to being brought up giving offerings to the element goddess, Loch, with his dad Al in a bid for clear skies and a calm sea on his travels. As such he uses silly sea related stuff in place of swears. He also is vegetarian as a sign of respect to Vita, the goddess of life and girlfriend of Loch. Though he will still eat meat if necessary, but only in extreme circumstances (e.g life or death or something).

It’s also the reason for his bandana thingies! The god of luck and fate (unnamed rn) is very modest, as such it is not uncommon for those who pray or give offerings to the gods to wear modest clothes of cover their hair. Fent is a lil more of a casual follower of fate as such doesn’t stick to the modest clothing too much but most of the time he does. (it’s also common for people to wear bandannas, hair coverings or modest clothing for good luck as well!)

He’s a bit of a jack of all trades due to helping out around the castle, his parents, and Al. As such he has a range of survival skills and is very good with his hands. He knows how to talk to people and gives pretty solid advice (even if he sounds like an inspirational page you’d see on facebook or something. my dude is the kind of person to pull those “good morning rise and grind its winner wednesday yall” and “the same heat that hardens the bread, softens the potato” hes very live laugh love unironically you know.)

i can’t think of anything else but feel free to ask me anything else teehee i love talking about my guys ajsjsjsjsjfjdjsjsfjfj
