Xanin Erran
- Xanin was a character created to fill a void, since no one else was creating characters for the Marmo Republic. >.< I created him to give Thane and Kisten someone to interact with.
- His name came from a name generator, and I wanted something unique. I liked Erran, but we needed to fill a void in X names, so I took Xanin when it came up. Erran became his last name.
- Physically, he is based on my friend Dan. He's a very unique looking person, being 6'8" with curly red hair, and such a handsome face. Sometimes my friends can be a good inspiration for a character's appearance without me having to put much thought into it. I did the same with Mudan and Olula. These characters are only based on what the person looks like though. I don't use aspects of their personality. I need to learn about the character's personality on my own.
- I worry that Darthvegeta might be offended by the fact that I made Xanin taller than Thane, after I insisted that Thane be shorter than 5'9". However, I felt that since Xanin isn't a leader, it wouldn't be so bad. Xanin tries to slouch and appear shorter than he is though.
- He's a rather anti-social character; he doesn't like crowds for various reasons; partially because his height makes him uncomfortable and partially because most people he knows know he's a werewolf and are uncomfortable around him, or they sense that something isn't quite right about him.
- He doesn't ride horses. Besides, his legs are long enough to keep up with most horses.
- When I was trying to figure out how much he should weigh, Dan told me that the last time he weighed himself he was 180lbs, but that was a few years ago. I had to figure out Xanin's weight on my own. After all, he should be more toned than Dan.
- I like agility based fighters, so that's what Xanin is. Again.
- I've never played a werewolf (at least my own. I RPed Krisatris for Brian, but that doesn't count), so that's why I made Xanin one.
- Xanin has been a werewolf for most of his life, so he has good control over his transformations during the full moon.
