(When I typed the title of the thread in, I put down Qoyili instead of Fox, since that's what I know him by most, but then I remembered that Fox is actually his real name. So if I ever accidentally refer to someone called Qoyili in this post, it's just Fox.
)I don't know too much about Fox, comparative to my other characters. He has a thing about secrets, and apparently I was not excluded from his secrecy. But attempting to write an introduction actually helped me discover more about him than I knew before that, so I'm rewriting it to include the new information.
Qoyili believes he is always going to have conflict with his father and his brothers, and it's been proven scientifically that what you believe will happen affects what really does happen. He is no exception.
He is afraid of his father even though he knows his father loves him. He does not believe that he is a man worth respect, and so he doubts whether his father respects him. He doubts whether he is worthy of respect because he grew up in a family of brothers who were all quite similar to each other, and to his father – quiet, steady, reserved, decisive, and responsible – and he thought that that was the correct way to be. However his natural character is quite different – out going, perceptive, imaginative, careless to an extent, and with a desire to be accepted and to fit in. He has spent most of his life attempting to be like them, and failing. They do not blame him for being different, but he blames himself, and causes friction because of it.
He came to identify himself as being the one who was always opposed to the people he loved. This was yet another self fulfilling belief. He even ended up being opposed to them purely by chance, sometimes, by miscommunication or complicated situations that he did not deal with well. He kept too many secrets, because he was afraid; and like I mentioned before his father and brothers are naturally quiet. And silence is often the root of difficulties.
He wants to marry a woman he loves, but does not want to alienate her from her family, which is very important to her life, and decided not to pursue her. He did not tell her any of this.
He is fair skinned, fair haired, and fair eyed. He is very tall, but not very broad. He is strong. He is skilled in fighting, especially cobhaic, and in strategy – he was trained by his father, who is one of the best. He likes riding horses. He likes talking to people. He likes new things.
Please address the questions to him, I think he'd enjoy answering them.
