#3 Nerva

Nerva is from a different race of elves than Jared- their general characteristics are long ears, long necks, and strange reflective eyes! When thinking them up I had this idea that they’d be reminiscent of deer or cats… 😛

One of the protagonists (who hasn’t been designed yet…… or named. whoops) has a crush on Nerva, but other than that she’s extreeeemely minor. She’s very shy, kind, and is terrified of breaking rules. Pretty much all she wants in life is to fit in.

#2 Jeremiah

This is another of Jared’s brothers, one closer to his own age. Jeremiah was born with an identical twin, who died mysteriously when they were only 27 years old. As, er, suggested by the image, Jeremiah is a very lewd, unlikable person. Pretty much the entire family thinks he’ll get stabbed in a back alley someday.

#1 Valerian

As a starting note, all the characters I’m making for this challenge aren’t very serious. They’ll mostly serve as background characters/extras in a comic I’m planning to make. :]

Valerian is one of Jared’s many brothers (many, many brothers) who is close to reaching what you could call an elf’s age limit. He has always been very self-possessed; the scar on his face is a reminder of one of the few times he acted on impulse. After being pressured into politics by his family, he’s become increasingly jaded and somber over the years. He has only three children, all girls.
