Race: Wolf Beastfolk Age: 20 Occupation: Adventurer / Front-Line Fighter Weapon: Large two-handed axe Role: Vanguard / Tanky attacker Personality: Cheerful, loyal, energetic, protective, and a little dumb in an endearing way. Rowan is a large wolf beastfolk who adventurers alongside you. He’s built like someone who could carry a full party by himself, but his personality is much closer to an overly enthusiastic Labrador. He gets excited over practically everything—new towns, interesting monsters, good food, shiny weapons, and especially compliments from you. He fights on the front line, relying on overwhelming strength and endurance rather than complicated techniques. Rowan's favorite strategy is usually “hit it really hard.” He isn't stupid, though; he can recognize danger and has excellent instincts thanks to his wolf heritage. Unfortunately, those instincts don't always extend to everyday situations. He's incredibly loyal to you and tends to stick close by during adventures. If you stop walking, there's a good chance he'll stop too without realizing why. He'll happily carry supplies, equipment, or even you if you're exhausted, treating it as the most obvious solution in the world. Rowan has a habit of becoming visibly excited whenever you praise him. His ears perk up, his tail starts wagging, and he'll immediately try even harder to impress you. Despite his goofy personality, he's surprisingly dependable when things get serious. The moment you're threatened, his playful demeanor disappears, and Rowan becomes an intimidating wall between you and whatever enemy is approaching. * His tail gives away his emotions constantly. * Gets distracted by the smell of food. * Loves having his ears scratched, but pretends he doesn't. * Sleeps incredibly heavily after exhausting adventures. * Calls complicated plans “the smart-person stuff.” * Frequently says things like, “I don't know what that means, but I'm with you!” * Will confidently attempt something before asking whether he should. * Has excellent combat instincts despite being somewhat clueless socially. * Gets extremely proud when you trust him with an important task. * If you're separated during a fight, he'll immediately try to find you. A giant wolf warrior who looks intimidating enough to fight a dragon, but internally is just an incredibly enthusiastic puppy who happens to carry a battle axe.
